Zachary Leatherwood
2025-06-04 00:52:30 +0000 UTCSo I was pretty shocked through all of this episode, even though I've listened to it all be described before, but it was the nipple doorbell that was the definitive OH MY FUCKING HELL. I feel like maybe I'm a little desensitized? Maybe I listen to too many murder podcasts? 😫😫😫😫
Andrea Taylor
2025-03-23 04:17:21 +0000 UTCThere’s a few sk’s I actually believe have more victims and some have way way more. Gary Ridgeway Ed Kemper Keith Hunter Jesperson (Happy Face Killer) Tool Box Murders Richard Ramirez Sam Little Robert Pickton (WOW)

2025-03-15 02:58:07 +0000 UTCY’all need to really do something about the Green River Killer. Gary Ridgeway. Likely one of the top; or close to the top body count for an American Serial Killer, excluding medical etc.
Alisun Shyn 🇨🇦
2025-03-15 02:51:04 +0000 UTCEd Kemper in my mind was so much worse. He was into everything from killing co-Ed’s, dismembering his mother and then practicing necrophillia and other disgusting horrific acts. He was also likely the first to come up with the term ‘serial killer’. He was a hella smart genius who knew how to use the system to get away with anything he wanted to. But he also knew he couldn’t stop, so turned himself in. To me, he is farrrr more interesting than any Bundy, gein, dahmer, hillside stranglers, etc. He needs to be studied in depth.
Alisun Shyn 🇨🇦
2025-03-15 02:48:34 +0000 UTCHe used a gambrel to string her up. Just like a deer hunter uses. Incredible. Those poor police must have PTSD from the experience of finding such a horrific situation.

2025-01-06 12:32:42 +0000 UTCMy friends and I were in Plainfield a few years ago and me being obsessed with true crime knew about Ed Gein. Since I was the driver, I drove us to the cemetery he is buried in. There are three identical stones for his mom, dad and brother, but rumor has it that his stone was stolen. There is a blank plot where his should be.

Not George
2024-09-20 19:13:51 +0000 UTCNo shit my dads family was actually familiar with the guy. Its claimed they talked to him, but you can take a grain of salt from that
Justin Govas
2024-08-18 09:18:48 +0000 UTCI personally can’t get enough of Ed Gein. I like the different perspectives and telling of the story.
Ian Lynch
2024-07-17 17:49:06 +0000 UTCI've heard the story of Ed Gein so many times but you guys breaking down all the grossness was great!!

Stephanie Sage
2024-06-26 21:57:11 +0000 UTCGreat pairing The Story of Ed Gein and Chinese Food- see you in Wisconsin in September
Lisa Yuknavage
2024-06-23 21:31:47 +0000 UTCI kinda wish that Ed had been around to be featured on "Hoarders". I think having Dr. Robin Zasio talk to Ed would be amazing. "So Ed, you have a whole box of vulvae... do you need all of them or can we let some of these go?"

Matt Studer
2024-06-12 16:36:51 +0000 UTCI found Small town murder when looking for podcasts covering less known cases! That's the reason I started listning. I've had enough of all the cookie cutter podcasts retelling the same story over and over again. The only way I'd listen to anything regarding Dahmer, Gacy or Bundy again is if there's an entirely new angle! So thanks guys for this podcast😘

Jodi Smith
2024-06-03 17:11:05 +0000 UTCCan you guys do a show at my house on the 14th of August after 3 p.m. but before 9pm only if the weather is warm. But not to warm. I'd say in the 80 degree range........

2024-06-02 12:41:59 +0000 UTCAs a true Wisconsinite, your version has been one of the best! Plainfield has never truly healed from it, even to this day.
Jenna Lemke
2024-06-01 20:33:53 +0000 UTCI love that you guys cover stories that haven’t been done to death. The ones you do that I have heard before, no one does them like you two!

2024-05-31 23:35:02 +0000 UTCHey guys! Is anyone else unable to play the episode “never sing your confessions”?? I keep trying ever since it came out but I just get an error message. All other episodes play fine! I am also subscribed to wondery+ and neither version would work (the free one or the wondery+) 😢
Fatimah k
2024-05-31 22:44:09 +0000 UTCCan you guys do a live show in Saint Louis MO sometime??? I was hospitalized and this is what kept me sane I would like to get to a live show but all of them are to far (like Kansas City and Chicago)
Ginny
2024-05-31 22:28:30 +0000 UTCLoved this. Can you guys do a show on Derek Ernest Percy one day?

Daniel
2024-05-30 07:13:20 +0000 UTCOn a different note. Good job on this story. 30 years ago my husband and I were trying to put together a student film about him ( we have a lot of connections to this area) We tried to interview a few people about it and boy, did the news spread fast. To this day no one wants to talk about it and if you bring it up, you pretty much get run out of town. It’s weird and wild. Some towns would own this sort of thing and make it into some sort of money making venture, but not here. I still wonder what has happened to a lot that was sold before the place “ caught fire”😳
Jackie Goetz
2024-05-29 17:25:02 +0000 UTCI wonder if he had some teriyaki twat in that box🤔
SCHLAPIA
2024-05-29 15:38:43 +0000 UTCI knew people that were baby sat by ed. Well they weren’t babies, but younger pre teens. The one I knew said he was just a weird sweet guy with some great stories …. 😳😳😳

Maguire Detlefsen
2024-05-29 13:40:06 +0000 UTCI thought that too, but just finished OJ and that story is horrific on a whole different level.
Susan McFarland
2024-05-29 05:14:37 +0000 UTCCannot wait to listen first thing in the AM! I thrive on James and Jimmi! Gets me through my day with laughs. I WISH they would have a show close enough to my hometown The beautiful PNW!!!

2024-05-29 04:05:44 +0000 UTCI don't think that you're " fucking up " ( top of episode regarding your podcasts ) !! What you guys do is exactly what sets you apart, and I love all of your podcasts! 🤩

2024-05-29 00:45:46 +0000 UTCMy sons’ band when they were children was called Dead Bug, the name of I think their only song was Buckets of Buckets. Very chaotic, mostly because nobody could play their instruments, except maybe their very savvy friend on drums.

Tim Olson
2024-05-28 22:51:30 +0000 UTCI’m listening to James describe the body in the shed - that picture was in the Milwaukee Journal when Ed died. It was a black and white picture, not on the main page but part of the story a few pages in.
Michele S
2024-05-28 22:49:41 +0000 UTCYeah, it is. 🤐
Don Nelson
2024-05-28 22:48:21 +0000 UTCCan you decide how you're going to pronounce his last name, James? I've always heard "Geen", but it's a German name, so would be pronounced "Gine", but never have I heard "Gayn". Make up yer fuckin mind, eh?
Don Nelson
2024-05-28 22:46:30 +0000 UTCMore shocking than a box of pussies!! 😂😂😂

Savannah Mick
2024-05-28 14:38:24 +0000 UTCWhen you revisit the subject. Are you going to focus on the suspicion of Ed possibly murdering his brother?

Dawn Bouchard
2024-05-27 18:07:39 +0000 UTCI'm just glad I didn't listen to this one before going to bed because sweet holy christ what a fucking freak. I've been suffering with night terrors recently and this would have had me crying under the bed or keeping my wife up all night. This is one of your best, thank god I had Your Stupid Opinions to cleanse my soul afterwards.
Justin Glover
2024-05-27 14:42:56 +0000 UTCYou guys, 1st I fucking love everything you produce. 2ndly dear god this is really one of the craziest things I’ve heard for real. Thank you for all the weird crazy shit you make for us 👏👏🙌🤢🤮

Kyle Bearce
2024-05-27 13:21:28 +0000 UTCI told my friend that this one was almost too much. Even though I’d heard almost all of the details they gave, it was bits here and there from various articles and books over a period of years . All of that at once in an hour and change definitely hits different.
Jennifer Byrd
2024-05-27 12:27:37 +0000 UTCThis one I had to take breaks from and revisit, to listen to in pieces. Does your research ever cause you nightmares? Phew!

Aussie Jen
2024-05-26 21:26:26 +0000 UTCThere is a really great book on the making of Psycho that the Anthony Hopkins film was based on, really terrifying how obsessed Hitchcock became with Gein's story sometimes overlooking the novel just to focus on Gein.

Nicole
2024-05-26 19:47:37 +0000 UTCI was so excited for this episode, well done! My dad lives in Wisconsin Rapids, so I know this part of the state well. Ed Gein is such a fascinating character. All of this horror inside a small, unassuming man. I always thought Norman Bates as the best representation of Ed, the creepy factor, the taxidermy, the house! Looking forward to the rest of the story!

2024-05-26 15:48:48 +0000 UTCPussy Jerky Lol. I remember tripping on acid and watching a show on Ed w my friends. When they talked about the box of vulva. I said whoa when he eats pushy, he really eats it. Harold Shecklter is an awesome author. It's crazy how many movies, books Ed has inspired w only 2 murders. There's 2 cannibal stories you guys covered that are so much more brutal. I think Ed's house really added to the grossness of the story
Dr Phil Goode 👹🌲🔥
2024-05-26 15:41:41 +0000 UTCNot you guys making me like Ed Gein. hahahahaha Great episode! Thank you
Stephanie Seviour
2024-05-26 14:55:24 +0000 UTCLove finding things like this. Adding it to the list of things to see in Vegas! Alcatraz East in Pigeon Gorge has John Wayne Gacy's clown suit. The feeling while viewing it still sticks with me. I imagine it's similar.

2024-05-26 14:11:07 +0000 UTCBox of box 📦 ✨️
Katie Jesse
2024-05-26 14:07:25 +0000 UTCI went to Zac Bagan's Haunted Museum out in Vegas a few years ago and in it, Mr. Ghost Bro Bagans has Ed Gein's cauldron. On top of it being a really uncomfortable artifact to view, Bagans had an exact replica of Ed Gein's barn built complete with the smell of musty hay and I don't even know what else. That replica barn was horrifying but the descriptions of Gein's house sound worse. Bagans should have had a replica of the bedroom built instead. That would have sent people running out of the exhibit.
JuleeAnn Armstrong
2024-05-26 11:55:39 +0000 UTCNo, a lot have never heard of Gein. Many do not know that Norman Bates was modeled after Gein. It’s not one of my favorite TCs out there but the lid has barely been lifted on this guy. I can’t wait for the next installment in two weeks.
Charles Jewell
2024-05-26 11:33:13 +0000 UTCWas anyone else screaming "geen" when James said "gain"? Loved the episode
Chris & Aurora
2024-05-26 10:13:28 +0000 UTCI love you guys so damn much. You tickle my dark morbid soul. Thanks a million
Holy crow you got a droopy butthole.
2024-05-26 07:15:31 +0000 UTCAm I the only one that has no idea who Ed Gein is?
Jesse
2024-05-26 06:04:42 +0000 UTCI’ve been saying this since they started talking about this Patreon episode! I was hoping I wasn’t the only one lol
Matthew Eagle
2024-05-26 05:48:04 +0000 UTCSo we've always pronounced it as "Geen"
Andrew Betts
2024-05-26 04:36:48 +0000 UTCStill not worse than Hitler, right?
Cory Dyani
2024-05-26 04:20:37 +0000 UTCEd Gein is the real life inspiration for much of our pop culture. Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Norman Bates and Buffalo Bill (Silence of the Lambs). He is one of the most (un)well-known characters.
Mando Caljizzian
2024-05-26 03:52:40 +0000 UTCHow did he not just stink of death? Especially if he didn’t bathe.

2024-05-26 03:34:26 +0000 UTCI've been to that site, the cemetery, and that town . On the anniversary of his birthday once. Got the heebiest of jeebies! Also one hell of a great story to tell around a campfire!

2024-05-26 03:17:51 +0000 UTCYou guys need to do a bonus about Richard Byrd: the last Vegas strip strangler! Very few people know about him he was caught the day after 9/11 and flew way u see the radar because of that. He was one sick puppy 😉
Justin Mackenzie
2024-05-26 02:50:00 +0000 UTCIt’s honestly about your takes, not the material. A lot of people make true crime podcasts but you two have genuine insight into trauma, human nature, and a gift for finding the humor in darkness of it all. Most podcasters are just not that good. You guys have a gift.
Grumpy Aunt
2024-05-26 02:46:13 +0000 UTCYou’re free and independent guys! Haha! I love the choices for stories and topics. Perfection; all 3 shows.
