The latest episode of Murderland Chicago: A Deep Dish of Death is out now! In this episode we talk about the infamous duo of Leopold and Loeb, who gave birth to a trope that still lives on to this very day: the "perfect crime." We pull the curtain aside and reveal how this crime was far from perfect, and how it set the tone for portrayals and perceptions of serial killers in the media.

Season 2 of Murderland Chicago: A Deep Dish of Death starts Aug 1 with a 3-part series on Larry Eyler.

Eyler was convicted of just one murder, but he's suspected of killing 20+ young men and teenage boys along the highways that connect Chicago to Indianapolis. And, although Eyler is the officially-guilty person, he may have had an accomplice that escaped consequences.

Listen on Aug 1 as we explore how Chicago's influence shaped these crimes!

Our latest podcast episode is now out! This is the first of a 2-parter about how Chicago's cultures enabled Gacy to fly under the radar for YEARS.

Listen for our analysis of Gacy as a member of Chicago’s Polish community, a member of the Catholic faith, an active participant in local politics, and as a man who embraced cruising in the days just before the AIDS crisis hit Chicago's gay community.
