Ep 11. Love Has Won and the Curious Case of the Mummified 'Mother God'
This week it's a crazy one, this story first caught my attention a few years ago because of the blue lady drinking silver but it's so much worse than that.
Hopefully someone learns something from this episode otherwise I may have traumatised myself for nothing!
P.s the cult (or at least members of the group formerly known as Love Has Won) is still active under 5D full disclosure. I finally found the updated website after recording and editing, because I'm nosy AF, they are on Facebook and TikTok and it looks like they still have 501c(3) status and receiving donations so, be careful out there!

Ep 9. The Controversial Practice of ‘Rehoming’ Adopted Children
So yeah, this one was hard to get through. "Rehoming" is a terrible practice that needs to be eradicated.

Ep 8. Worst Scammers on the Internet: Faking Cancer for Clout
Apparently lying about having cancer is big business. This week, I waded knee deep into the muck of the internet where people lie about having cancer for money and attention.
It's truly despicable how many they are out there, in this episode I just focussed on a few including Madison Russo and her 'football sized lump' and Belle Gibson, who even had a cookbook and app off the back of her scams.
Links and things:
- Maddie the scammer
- Dusty Dawn
- Jessica Smith, cancer faker
- Man saves family from burning building
- South Korea welcomes couple who rescued Korean tourists from deadly blizzard
Anyways, I hope you learned something. Beware of Scammers.
Ep 7. The Bootleg Baby Batter Brigade
Did you know that there are men out there "selling" their sperm on the internet? Well I did, and now you do too!
This week I take a look at some of the men who offer up their baby batter to hapless women across the world. Don't worry, they're doing it for charitable reasons!
This one was hard to get through, some of these men are gross af and need to be stopped at all costs!

Ep 6. The most cursed livestream in history: The Story of Nasubi
This week I was traumatised by this story so I decided to share it with the rest of you.
Nasubi, or Tomoaki Hamatsu, as his mother named him, was an aspiring comedian in Japan when he won a once in a lifetime opportunity to work in "show business". Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned for him and his story unfolded with him being live-streamed on Japanese TV for over 16 million people to see, that's not even the half of it. Join me while I unpack this mess.
Links & things:
- Nasubi Interviewed 1
- Nasubi Interviewed 2
- Solitary Confinement is Bad!
- Greece Makes Beaches Wheelchair Accessible
Thank you for the support and have a great day huns!
Ep 5. Craigslist but make it Dark Web: The Rise and Fall of Silk Road
This week I wanted to talk about the first modern dark web marketplace, Silk Road.
I felt weird Googling certain things related to this topic, like "How does a Tor network work", "How easy is it to access the dark web", and "What can I buy on the dark web" so I hope it was all worth it!
Links here, links there, links everywhere:
- Stupid things DPR did to get arrested
- Was Silk Road Hacked?
- Wrong un Thomas White Jailed
- "Pablo Escobar of Silk Road" aka Cornelius
- 13 year old safely stops school bus after driver passes out
P.s, soz if I forgot to link things, I have a short attention span and if I don't write it down, I don't remember :)
Ep 4. Branch Jaredians: A look at Jared Leto’s Alleged Cult
In last week's episode, I briefly mentioned Jared Leto's dodgy behaviour over the years, including his insistence that the band he's in with his brother Shannon started a cult... So I wanted to talk about it.
If there are any echelon members out there, don't come for me pls.
Links galore:
- NY Post article stating Jared Leto "likes 'em young"
- Jared Leto's encounter with Olivia Rodrigo causes accusations to resurface
- Young girl gets reunited with dog after a month and 150 miles
P.s I'm writing this description at 2AM because I make terrible life decisions so sorry if it doesn't make sense or I forget to include something...
Ep 3. Hall of Shame: Forbes 30 under 30 criminals
Forbes are (rightfully, I think) being mocked for their 30 under 30 list being full of (alleged!) tech and finance scammers so I took it upon myself to list a few of them... Not all of them obviously because there's quite a few of them now.
Good luck to the 2023 nominees :)
Ep 2. LASIK and it's link to suicide
Have you ever considered getting LASIK or any other laser eye surgery? Did you even know there was more than one type of laser eye surgery? No? Well neither did I before I fired up my Google machine and did the research.
This week, we'll learn all about LASIK, the complications that can occur and discover it's link to suicide and suicidal ideation.
In an effort to end on a good note, we'll find out about a retirement cat village in the West Midlands.
Links links links.....
Ep 1. A brief look at the history of TMZ
TMZ has been a tabloid mainstay since the early 2000's but have you ever wondered how they got started? Let's stroll down memory lane while I remind you of some of the famous stories they covered over the years, including the careers they helped ruin and scandals they uncovered.
