Bonus: A Conversation with Sarah Marshall Dec 18, 2025

Show notes

Today I am talking with someone whose work Christie and I deeply respect and whose podcast topics often overlap with our own. You know her from hit podcast You’re Wrong About, where she has spent years helping listeners peel back the layers of cultural myths, moral panics, and the stories we think we remember.
Sarah Marshall’s newest project, The Devil You Know, is an eight-part deep dive into the Satanic Panic: the believers, the skeptics, the wrongfully accused, and everyone caught in the blast radius. It’s a human story about the way fear spreads, the systems that fail us, and why the myths never really die.

Episode 374: Mike Warnke, Fake Satanist – Part 1 Dec 17, 2025

Show notes

The Satanic Panic swept the country 1980s, in which claims of widespread ritual abuse and occult conspiracies were treated as real threats. Targets were wrongfully convicted, children were taken from marginalized homes, all while much of the “evidence” seemed to stem from one man’s written account. He rose to fame claiming he freed himself from the Illluminati’s Satanic control, but what if it was all a crock of lies? This week’s episode is Mike Warnke, Fake Satanist – Part 1.

Bonus: A Conversation with Natalie Robehmed Dec 11, 2025

Show notes

Today, we’re joined by someone whose work you’ve almost definitely heard.
Natalie Robehmed is an award-winning journalist and executive producer at Campside Media. She’s the writer behind WeCrashed, the chart-topping investigation into WeWork that became a hit Apple TV+ series, and she’s spent her career unpacking what power looks like when it goes off the rails.
Her newest project, Allison After NXIVM, is a seven-episode deep investigation into one of the most infamous cult stories of our time, but told through a lens most people have never heard: the life, psychology, and aftermath of Allison Mack.
This series goes beyond the headlines, salacious details, and courtroom drama. It asks harder questions about accountability, manipulation, influence, and what it takes to rebuild a life after the collapse of someone's entire belief system.
