    TCC #27: The Greystone Mansion Murders
    Feb 1 2026
    This episode, we are going back in time a bit more than usual, all the way back to the 1920's, to a case that was such an important part of history, yet is so easily forgotten (possibly on purpose) that we had to bring it back to the forefront of all true crime listener's minds: The Greystone Mansion Murders! The Greyston Mansion was built in the 1920's by a family so rich and powerful, many streets, buildings, and even a beach are still named after them to this day. As with most uber rich families, the Doheny's had their fair share of secrets, and unfortunately for them, some of those secrets came to light while this mansion was being built. This coincidence of timing resulted in a very tragic end for an otherwise very charmed family, and brought the Doheny's to the front pages of every newspaper, in a way they would have all very much rather avoided, for many reasons.

    TCC #26: Angelina Rodriguez
    Jan 17 2026
    This week, we are looking at a case of a woman so dumb, so greedy, that her story is almost funny... almost. Had she not murdered one (maybe more) people, her craziness would be hilarious, but unfortunately, her horrible ways were focused on those she was supposed to love, and who certainly loved her, and turned from weird and silly to straight up dangerous.

    Tune in now for a crazy, strange, and very sad tale of a very greedy woman who let her need for money blind her from all else - love, family, and even self preservation.

    TCC #25: Mark "Gator" Rogowski
    Dec 27 2025
    This week, we decided to not lean into the holidays, and instead do a totally random, but still completely horrifice, case of murder and mayhem. Instead of covering a Santa Slayer case, Cindy chose to cover a case out of a community close to her heart: skateboarders. This case, the story of the rise and fall of Mark "Gator" Rogowski, hits close to home for anyone who grew up in the skate community in the 90's (so, if you're old like me!) Even if you don't know this story, it's still a shocking and important part of California history, and true crime history. So tune in for all the ups and downs of this case (pun intended - you'll see what I mean) and Happy Holidays!

    TCC #24 Mary Vincent
    Dec 12 2025
    This episode, we are continuing with survivors stories, with the incredible, horrible, story of Mary Vincent. Mary was only 15 when she ran away from her Nevada home in hopes of finding her grandfather. While on the way, she was horrifically attacked by a merchant seaman, and despite surviving, she was left with terrible, life altering injuries.
    The man, Lawrence "Larry" Singleton was given an insultingly short sentence, and as you can imagine, after his release, Mary lived her life in terror, until, unfortunately, tragedy struck once again.


    Tune in now to hear this awful tale about a young woman's horrible attack, how her attacker walked free to strike again, and how she was able to overcome what was done to her, against all odds.

  • TCC 23: The Chowchilla Bus Kidnapping

    TCC 23: The Chowchilla Bus Kidnapping
    Nov 18 2025
    This week we're looking at a story of survival, which can be a great thing, but also has a lot of trauma related repercussions for the survivor, or in this case survivors - all 27 of them! This story, the Chowchilla Bus Kidnapping, was the biggest story - and largest mass kidnapping - California had ever seen, and to this day, there hasn't been a larger group of people kidnapped since. The worst part - 26 of the 27 captives were children, many as young and 5 or 6 years old.
    This tale is harrowing, terrifying, evil, and also, just plain stupid, as you'll see how unprepared, half assed, and dumb the kidnappers were (yes, they were absolutely caught). Tune in for this crazy tale, but beware - claustrophobia abounds!

    TCC #22: The Wineville Chicken Coop Murders
    Nov 4 2025
    This week, we're going back in time to a horrific and little covered case: The Wineville Chicken Coop Murders. Be warned, this case is centered around horrific abuse and murder of children, so it may not be for everyone, and as always, there will be no shying away from the details of what happened, so be warned!
    This case may not be familiar to you, but there was actually a Hollywood movie made about one part of this case. This movie, The Changeling, was directed by Clint Eastwood and stars Angelina Jolie. Unfortunately, it doesn't cover the full scope of the case as they weren't making a horror film, but it does offer an interesting insight into how the police behaved during these murders.

    Tune in now for the full case, in all its horrific glory!

  • TCC #20 The Napa Halloween Massacre

    TCC #20 The Napa Halloween Massacre
    Oct 4 2025
    This week we're kicking off spooky season with a well known Halloween Homicide that took place in Napa, California. Adriane Insogna and Leslie Mazzara were upstairs asleep in their three bedroom house, along with their downstaris roommate, when murderous villain broke into their home, with disastrous results.

    The thing that makes this tale so scary is the prolonged search for the killer in an otherwise very safe and peaceful place, and even more, the discovery of the killer's identity, which rocked the entire community.

    Join us for this and more spooky tales all October long!

  • TCC #19 The Speed Freak Killers

    TCC #19 The Speed Freak Killers
    Sep 26 2025
    This week, we're diving into a serial killer duo who were rightfully dubbed The Speed Freak Killers. These to drugged out losers assaulted and killed as many as 70 men and women in California's Central Valley betwen the years of 1984 and 1998, before the Sheriff in the area finally decided to put a stop to their reign of terror.
    These two men, Loren Herzog and Wesley Shermantine, were both from upper middle class families, and seemed to have it all. Behind closed doors, though, things were very different, and the traumas suffered by children can often manifest in very bad ways as they grow up. This is a perfect example of that scenario playing out to the worst possible conclusion - over and over again.
