  • The Bizarre Reason That The Muppets Aren't Actually Muppets | Case File #255
    Oct 8 2026

    What are the muppets? Well, they’re an iconic cast of characters tied to decades of movies, tv shows, and merchandise created by the Jim Henson company in the late 1960s and then later sold to Disney in the early 2000s. But wait. It’s also a style of puppetry created by Jim and Jane Henson in the mid-1950s that applies not only to THE Muppets, capital M, but also other Jim Henson Company-created characters and properties like Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, Dark Crystal, and Yoda. So what exactly IS a muppet? Well, thanks to a Supreme Court case in the 1990s, we actually have a legal definition. And, spoiler alert, The Muppets, characters like Kermit the Frog and Gonzo, don’t technically qualify.

  • The Shadowy Organization Holding MrBeast's Face Hostage | Case File #252
    Aug 27 2026

    What is MrBeast Burger? Well, it’s the burger chain started by the most popular YouTuber on the planet. But, actually, is it? Or was it started by a shadowy restaurant organization run by the same guy who owns Bucca De Beppo, who secretly operated it for MrBeast behind the scenes, and then when he wanted to shut the whole thing down because the food was really bad, this shadowy organization basically took ownership of his name and likeness and is still holding it hostage to this day?

  • The Disturbing Reason Corn Flakes Exist | Case File #250
    Aug 20 2026

    Who are the Kellogg Brothers? They’re the siblings behind the company that would become known as Kellogg’s, which has become synonymous with breakfast cereals. Their most famous creation was a little product called Corn Flakes, which the cereal box or Kellogg’s corporate website will tell you was invented to be a healthier breakfast option. But that’s only half right. Because Corn Flakes were actually invented to keep people from...jerkin' it.

  • How Mythbusters Saved 3 Men From Life In Prison | Case File #249
    Aug 6 2026

    So what happened? Well, in 2005, an episode of the Mythbusters accidentally proved that a crime three men were accused of in 1986 was physically impossible. And two years later, one of these men saw the episode, and it started a process of his legal team using it to get him and the other two men exonerated. But the scary thing is that, somehow, even after they proved that they couldn’t have possibly committed the crime, it still took 17 years for them to be released.
