In honor of Shark Week beginning, we're taking it back to the summer of 1916 when the real shark panic in the United State began. Five shark attacks in New Jersey started a long history of fearing sharks, coming to a head in 1975 with the most popular shark film ever created.

We teased it last week but if you didn't get the memo, strap in because this might be the most grisly case we have ever covered. The murder of the beautiful Iana Kasian by her wealthy boyfriend Blake Leibel is referred to as one of the worst cases to ever happen in West Hollywood. Arguably more disturbing than the case is that the details seemed pulled directly from a graphic novel... written by the murderer...

The often unheard about Osage Native American murders were a series of murders of Osage people in Osage County, Oklahoma during the 1910s–1930s; newspapers described the increasing number of unsolved murders as the "Reign of Terror," lasting from 1921-1926. The estimated Osage death toll is in the hundreds, though reported numbers are much less and investigated deaths far fewer. Newer investigations indicate that many more suspicious deaths during this time could have potentially been misreported or covered up murders, including the deaths of heirs to future fortune.

As we continue our Pride Month series, we thought the most fitting topic during this time in our history would be the Stonewall uprising. Whether you know it as a protest, a riot, or a revolution, the events at Stonewall in 1969 propelled the gay rights movement into something that could no longer be pushed aside. In this episode, we talk about the events that led up to the riots, the timeline of the first night, and a few key figures that had a huge impact on the movement as a whole.
