It's a Short Suck Friday!
On January 15th, 1919, a massive molasses tank in Boston’s North End burst, unleashing a 25-foot wall of sticky destruction that toppled buildings, derailed trains, and killed 21 people while injuring scores more. Today, we follow the harrowing rescues, the landmark class-action showdown, and the reforms that changed U.S. engineering standards. A strange, darkly ironic tragedy—equal parts true-crime, industrial history... and sugary nightmare.

Happy Veteran's Day! George S. Patton was a war-winning, poetry-writing, reincarnation-believing chaos machine. The Allies needed him. The N***s feared him. His bosses… tolerated him. From heroic battlefield leadership to slapping hospitalized soldiers and creating international incidents with his mouth, Patton lived louder than almost anyone in uniform. This is the story of Old Blood-and-Guts: genius, troublemaker, and one of the toughest sons of bi***es in U.S. military history.

The first Monday of November! I hope you enjoy the incredible story of Muhammad Ali, this week. He was brash, beautiful, bold, flawed, and unapologetically himself. From Olympic gold to global fame, Muhammad Ali’s story is one of rebellion, redemption, and relentless courage. This week, we dive into the life of “The Greatest” - a man who fought not just opponents in the ring, but racism, war, and even his own failing body.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee… and rumble, young meatsack, rumble.

Another Monday, another Timesuck! Let's go!
In the mid-1990s, the quiet backwoods of southwest Florida became the hunting grounds of a sadistic killer the media would dub “The Hog Trail Killer.” What began as a routine hog hunt quickly spiraled into one of the most gruesome investigations in Florida history - a string of bodies found in the woods, all bound, mutilated, and left to rot. This week, we look at Daniel Owen Conahan Jr., the man accused of turning Charlotte County’s wilderness into his personal killing field, and explore the chilling possibility that he’s connected to even more victims — the mysterious Fort Myers Eight.

Another Monday, Meatsacks! Let's get into it! In Victorian England, “baby farming” turned unwanted infants into a deadly business. Amelia Dyer, known as The Ogress of Reading, used it to hide an unimaginable number of murders - hundreds of them. This week, we expose the grim world of baby farming, the cruelty of Victorian morality, and how one of the most prolific killers in British history was only a small part of a much bigger problem.

We hope you will help make the holiday season a little bit better for someone in need.

Happy Monday, Meatsacks! When seven backpackers vanished in the early 1990s, the vast Australian bush became the hunting ground of a sadistic killer. For years, hikers stumbled upon shallow graves in Belanglo State Forest—each revealing new horrors and the same gruesome pattern of torture and ex*****on. The man responsible, truck driver Ivan Milat, would become known as the “Backpacker Murderer,” one of Australia’s most infamous serial killers. This week, we dive into his brutal crimes, the survivor who helped catch him, and the darkness hiding along the open road.

It's another Short Suck Friday where we dive into a topic in a more brief way. If you enjoy this episode, don't forget to check out Scared to Death this Halloween season! You can catch Lynze and I telling each other creepy tales. You can also listen to Nightmare Fuel, my passion project these days. On Friday's where there is no Short Suck, you can listen to Nightmare Fuel instead!

Now, this Short Suck we explore the Crescent Hotel. Once hailed as a luxurious spa retreat in the Ozarks, the Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs would earn a far darker reputation - one of fraud, tragedy... and restless spirits. From its days as a supposed healing haven to a hospital of horrors run by a quack doctor, the Crescent has been called America’s most haunted hotel. Step inside its haunted halls, if you DARE....on this historical and paranormal October episode.

Happy Monday, Meatsacks! This weeks is wildly interesting! Dragon vs. Eagle: Will China Dethrone the US?

From AI breakthroughs and supply chains to TikTok and military might, China’s rise has reshaped global power over the past few decades. Can the U.S. hold onto its superpower status, or is the “American Century” nearing its end? What will the world look like, if reshaped in China's image? All this and more on a VERY informative (and ultimately hopeful) edition of Timesuck.

Happy Monday, Meatsacks! This week, we deep dive into Pastor Robert Shinn, his Shekinah Church, and his management company 7M Films - and examine how a modern cult has (allegedly) exploited TikTok dancers, financially abusing them, sexually abusing members, while also possibly being connected to the very popular and scary Seven Mountains Mandate that has current Whitehouse connections.
