In a small town in Vermont, workers at the Department for Children and Families ended their work day and started thinking about what the weekend would hold for them. Lara Sobel had plans to go home to her two spirited young daughters, to be joined later by her husband.

Hosted by Ash Kelley and Alaina Urquhart from the hit show Morbid. When 90-year-old Laurence Pilgeram drops dead on the sidewalk outside his condo, you might think that’s the end of his story. But, really, it’s just the beginning. Because Laurence and others like him have signed up to be frozen and brought back to life in the future. And that belief will pull multiple generations of the Pilgeram family into a cryonics soap opera filled with dead pets, gold coins, grenades, fist fights, mysterious packages, family feuds, Hall of Fame baseball legends, and frozen heads — lots of frozen heads. From Wondery, comes a story about life, death, and what comes next. Follow Frozen Head on Amazon Music or wherever you get your podcasts.

It was a date Brittany Tavar had been preparing for, for over a year, July 7th, 2010. The day she planned to stand before a judge at the St. Augustine, Florida courthouse, to present evidence that would hopefully grant her request for a permanent restraining order against her nemesis. A neighbor and former friend. Brittany told friends she’d been building the case against her neighbor out of fear, fear for her safety. So when she never showed up at the courthouse that day, those who loved Brittany knew something was wrong.

For more than three and a half decades, the disappearance of 12-year-old Jonelle Matthews was a mystery – a riddle neither authorities nor her family members could solve. The residents of her cloistered Colorado hometown had scoured every inch of prairie. Jonelle’s face had been on milk cartons nationwide. Even the President of the United States had appealed to the public for help. Still, every lead had fizzled. Every person of interest had turned out to be a dead end.    Then, in 2019, Jonelle’s remains were unearthed near the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. With the discovery came a troubling new question: Had the truth been hiding in plain sight the entire time? Was the man who couldn’t stop obsessing over Jonelle’s disappearance also the person who took her? From Campside Media and Wondery comes season two of SUSPECT. Former CNN reporter Ashley Fantz and executive producers Matthew Shaer and Eric Benson (Suspect, Over My Dead Body) dig into one of the most mind-bending cold cases in modern history, in an attempt to separate fact and fiction, compulsion from guilt, and true-crime fandom from a motive for murder.   Hey Prime Members, you can binge all 6 episodes of SUSPECT: Vanished in the Snow ad-free on Amazon Music.

On August 12th, 2014 at a luxurious resort in Bali, Heather Mack and her boyfriend Tommy Shaefer loaded a suitcase into the back of a waiting taxi. They told the driver they’d be back shortly. They just needed to finish checking out. But after waiting two whole hours, they never returned. When Hotel security popped the trunk of the cab to remove the suitcase, they noticed something smeared on the abandoned luggage...it appeared to be blood.

If you’ve ever watched shows like Yellowstone - you know that sometimes out west on a Ranch, there are secrets: secrets never supposed to leave the corral. This was something a ranch hand would discover firsthand, in Gunnison, Colorado in 2017, after witnessing two other ranchers, uncover something horrific. While digging in the horse corral with a backhoe…they unearthed what appeared to be rib bones…human rib bones - poking out from a dirty white sheet of plastic. It was at that moment the ranch hand was told: “You know you can’t ever leave now, right?” How to support: For extra perks including extra content, early release, and ad-free episodes - Go to - Patreon How to connect: Website Instagram Facebook Twitter Research & Writing: Ryan Deininger Sources: The Atlantic Denver Post Office of the District Attorney Dateline: Trouble at the 7-11 Ranch Oxygen  Crested Butte News Mercury News Daily Mail  Denver Post  Gunnison Country Times

Monday, April 23rd, 2018 was a surprisingly warm day in Toronto, Ontario, causing residents to be out in droves, ditching their winter coats, eager to enjoy the sunshine. Among those taking advantage of the warmer weather, was 68 year old Catherine Riddell, headed to the library off of Yonge Street, when a van suddenly struck her from behind. The vehicle had hit Catherine with such force, it sent her body flying in the air, before crashing through a transit shelter. The strange thing was, Catherine hadn’t been hit crossing the street. She’d been walking on the sidewalk.
