The Conspirators Podcast

The Conspirators is a show dedicated to the dark and disturbing stories from history your teacher never told you about. On the show I discuss unsolved mysteries, serial killers, survival stories, strange disappearances and other bizarre true events from the past.

Latest Episodes:

Ep. 142 - The Apprentice Dec 07, 2020

Show notes

The 1980s were a dangerous time to be a child in Ohio. Throughout the decade, several young girls were abducted, raped and murdered in seemingly connected crimes. Although one man, Robert Buell, would be convicted and sentenced to death for one of these crimes, some investigators believe Buell had an accomplice who was never caught.

Ep. 140 - The Affair of the Poisons Nov 09, 2020

Show notes

In the late 1600s, King Louis XIV's kingdom was rocked by a deadly scandal that threatened to destroy his monarchy. There was a rash of poisonings going on throughout France, often perpetrated by the king's fellow noblemen who were murdering one another in order to speed up their inheritances or to knock off their rivals. It's a story that includes murder, political intrigue, black magic, sex, Satanism and conspiracies. It's a story that has gone down in history to be known as The Affair of the Poisons.

Ep. 138 - The Rising Oct 12, 2020

Voodoo is a religious practice that grew up in Haiti after the Spanish imported tens of thousands of African slaves to the island, bringing their beliefs and religion with them. One of the core beliefs in the religion is that some powerful voodoo practitioners have the ability to resurrect the dead, bringing them back to life in a form Hollywood has made well known to all of us. In this episode I tell you all about the secret history of zombies.
