    Hunting the Suicide Salesman

    Following the critically acclaimed series Hunting Warhead, Season 2 follows host Daemon Fairless as he takes us inside another dark corner of the internet: the online world helping people take their own lives.

    When people around the world started killing themselves with an obscure substance a few years ago, police were unaware that something – someone – was tying many of these deaths together. 

    It took grieving families and investigative journalists to piece together what was actually happening and to trace the source of the substance – first, to an online suicide forum and then, to a salesman in Canada: Kenneth Law. 

    Police believe he sent more than 1200 shipments to 41 countries… and may be connected to more than 145 deaths around the world. 

    But this story is far bigger than any one man… It’s about the places desperate people go when they can’t find what they need in the real world – and a deadly problem we’re afraid to talk about.

    If you are thinking about suicide or are worried about someone you know, call or text 9-8-8 in Canada or the United States for support. If your life is in immediate danger, call 9-1-1. You can find additional and international resources at cbc.ca/hunting.

    About HUNTING: Investigating where the internet meets the unspeakable. Host Daemon Fairless tackles subjects most people would rather avoid, like online child sexual abuse (S1: Hunting Warhead), or the forums dedicated to suicide (S2: Hunting the Suicide Salesman).

    Hunting Warhead is coming back, but first: Real talk on high-risk reporting Jun 05, 2025
    Show notes

    They say you should never meet your heroes. Daemon Fairless disagrees. First, he has an update on the return of Hunting Warhead. But then he takes us behind-the-scenes on another project he’s been working on as a story editor: The Outlaw Ocean.


    This is a frank, illuminating discussion with Ian Urbina, the Pulitzer Prize winning journalist who quit his New York Times job to do some of the hardest, most difficult and often dangerous reporting in the world. He’s since become the de facto beat reporter for the world’s oceans — and his investigations reveal the shocking prevalence of forced labour, mind-boggling overfishing, and the hard truth is that it’s all connected to the cheap seafood we love.


    If you have the stomach for the kind of viscerally tough reporting we do on Hunting Warhead, we know you’ll appreciate The Outlaw Ocean — another show that sheds light on the darkest corners of the world, and goes where others won’t.
