  • Episode 131: Fast Times at Upper Merion High Part Two the Main Line Murders
    2026/01/21

    Welcome back to the second and final episode of Fast Times at Upper Merion High and the story of the Main Line Murders.

    Get ready for craziness, for today’s episodes has more twists and turns than a python in a pretzel factory, and enough sex and drugs to make a hippie blush.

    When we last left you things were really heating up in the elite upper-class Philadelphia suburb of Main Line as English teacher Bill Bradfield’s cult of nerds began infighting and the Prince of Darkness, Dr Jay C. Smith ramped up his nefarious criminal ways and today it all boils over into cold-blooded murder.

  • Episode 130: Fast Times at Upper Merion High, The Mainline Murders Part One
    2026/01/14

    Long before high school English teacher Susan Reinert was found dead, naked and beaten in the hatchback of her Plymouth Horizon, it was obvious that the staff of Upper Merion High were out of control and engaged in debauchery of all sorts.

    The principal, Dr Jay C. Smith, whom staff and students alike referred to as the Prince of Darkness, had a penchant for bestiality, robbery and drug dealing.

    The chair of the English Department, Bill Bradfield, a self-professed poet obsessed with fascist writer Ezra Pound, was known to be carrying on wild affairs with students and staff alike.

    In the end five people would end up murdered or missing, including two children, in a bizarre case that’s come to be known as the Main Line Murders.

    Buckle up and get ready for one hell of a ride, it’s Fast Times at Upper Merion High.

  • Episode 129: Amelia Dyer the Ogress of Reading
    2025/12/24

    Amelia Dyer, the Ogress of Reading, is believed to be responsible for the murder of up to 400 infants, delighting in their struggles as she strangled them to death, in late Victorian England.

    Amelia, who was part of an underground network of baby farms, left dead babies in her wake everywhere she went, buried in gardens, tossed into weeds, thrown into the river.

    Happy Holidays! It’s a doozy, listener discretion is advised.

  • Episode 125: 764 the Cult of Bradley Cadenhead
    2025/11/19
    There are realms of the internet so disturbing they defy comprehension, places literally dedicated to evil, that wish to accelerate the demise of humanity, and most disturbingly, they are often run by bored teenagers. Places like 764, which was created by a fifteen-year-old, high-school drop-out named Bradley Chance Cadenhead, a network so vile and horrendous that the FBI said it was one of the most disturbing things they’d ever seen and the Department of Justice classified it as a terrorist network. And violent theistic groups like Order of Nine Angles, Temple ov Blood and the Satanic Front, as well as accelerationist groups like the Maniacs Murder Cult, Sadistic Maniacs Cult, and No Lives Matter. If you are a parent, educator or guardian, we ask you to please listen to the following episode, for, although it is disturbing, it involves crimes going on right now, at this exact moment, both perpetrated by and targeting, children. If you or someone you know is struggling, you are not alone. You can call or text 988 or use the webchat at 988lifeline.org to connect with the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline — available 24/7, free, and confidential.
