Take a look, it's in a book: Murder, My Dude! We're taking a look at the Stephen King book so controversial, that the legendary author removed it from store shelves. Rage was originally published under a pseudonym, and it inspired a series of horrendous crimes (mostly in Kentucky, for some reason). This week, we explore those stories! BUT FIRST! Th…

Murder, My Dude returns to Episode 168! (or is it 169?) Dorothy Stratten was not only one of the top playmates for Playboy Magazine in 1980, but she was also seemingly poised for crossover superstardom in Hollywood, where she drew the attention of one director in particular… By the end of the year, she was brutally murdered before her 21st birthday…

Murder, My Dude returns for the 167th (and possibly final?) time! In the Winter of 2013, LAPD officers and police in surrounding areas found themselves the targets of a rampaging killer hell-bent on getting even for what he thought was a broken system that had victimized him and cost him his livelihood. Christopher Dorner was a vigilante with a twi…

It’s September, and back to school season is in full swing on Murder, My Dude!

This week’s feature is a rough one, given the age of one of the victims and how preventable his death was. 20 years after his tragic killing, we look at both the murder of one-year-old Zachary Turner as well as the killing of his father, Andrew Bagby. We also explore the tireless efforts of Andrew’s friends and family to make sure that their deaths…

It may be August, but Murder, My Dude is thinking cool thoughts! If you’ve watched your share of late night HBO in the 90s or 2000s, you may already be a little familiar with the story of Richard “The Iceman” Kulkinski, the self-professed hitman who seemed to love killing more than anything (with the possible exception of talking about killing). Ho…

No, it’s not a shameless effort to court Red Hot Chili Peppers fans, this week, we venture North to explore a Canadian true crime case that left the nation fearing for (or just straight up fearing) their youth in the mid/late 1990s.

Yeah, Father’s Day was almost a week ago, but in the spirit of, “better late than never,” Murder, My Dude is going to celebrate it the only way we know how: the worst way humanly possible!

In our latest episode, Jackson and B.P. (or is it Maximum Jackson-um and Pope Barnabas?) pay tribute to Florence Nightingale on what would’ve been her 203rd birthday, if only people lived that long. And they do it in a way only Murder, My Dude can: by highlighting the very worst of the profession that she’s synonymous with. Charles Cullen is one of…

This week's episode finally delves deep in to a thrilling, cutthroat world that we've never explored before: the insurance industry.

The weather is warming up, and schools are letting out. It’s time once again for SPRING BREAK!!! But the fun and frivolity all too often turns deadly, and perhaps never more horrifically than in the case of Mark Kilroy, a Texas Longhorn who went to the Gulf Coast to party like it was 1989, and he never returned. The story of his demise has to be he…

The weeks immediately following the attacks on September 11, 2001 were wrought with paranoia and a sense that something else bad was going to happen imminently. Those fears were made real on a smaller scale when it soon emerged that members of the media and the United States Senate were mailed letters containing spores carrying the deadly anthrax b…

Stay away from the woods (and wooded areas) - this week we’re taking a look at the Green River Killer! Gary Ridgway currently holds the second-largest confirmed body count of any serial killer in American history.

Be careful who you pick up on the side of the road. In our 6th Season Finale, we cover a case straight out of your Netflix watch list and explore the case of Kai, the hatchet-wielding hitchhiker!

Murder, My Dude returns with an episode that’ll make you think twice before you open your medicine cabinet!

In our latest episode, we expl…

This week, Murder, My Dude heads to the Big Apple to ring in the new year. We’re not talking about the ultra-glitzy modern-day Times Square, but instead the more rough-and-tumble Times Square of the 1970s and 80s, where “street performers” trafficked in something far more salacious than knockoff Marvel and Sesame Street costumes. This was the New Y…

For a large part of the late 2000s/early 10s, Casey Anthony was quite possibly the most hated person in America.

Anger that was joined by disbelief when Anthony was found not guilty of her…

On the latest Murder, My Dude, we go back in time to explore the case that helped create the True Crime genre itself.

On a 1978 Episode of the hit show The Dating Game, Bachelor #1 was harboring a horrible, horrible secret. Rodney Alcala’s downward spiral started with a broken home, and while his story has made true crime headlines, his sickening crime spree should perhaps be most remembered for how many chances the vicious murderer was inexplicably given. This we…

Our latest episode may have omitted one of the core parts of the Murder, My Dude Formula: The Murder!

Notice we didn’t say seemingly too good to be true returns. Meliss…

Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas in July, my dudes! Wait, I’m being told this isn’t about that Rudolph.

It’s a horror story that seems all too possible. A womanis murdered on the streets of New York City. 38 people witness the attack, and no one intervenes or calls for help. But in the time since the horrific murder of Kitty Genovese nearly 60 years ago, many - including Kitty’s own younger brother - have questioned the narrative of the three dozen-p…

Back in the early days of this show, we did Dr. Death, My Dude, an episode devoted to the life and times of controversial physician Jack Kervorkian, the legendary assisted suicide advocate (well, advocate might be too weak of a term). This week, we look at a much more deadly doctor. Harold Shipman was officially convicted of 15 murders, but his act…

This week, it’s one of our most fun, wild, twisty stories yet. Trust us - would we lie to you? One person that certainly would was known to many in New York, New Hampshire, and Boston as Clark Rockefeller (yes, those Rockefellers). Clark rubbed elbows with those in high society all over those locales, but a messy divorce unearthed a murderous truth…

A podcast tradition continues: it’s the fourth annual Murder O’Dude! And the St. Patrick’s Day celebration takes a more modern turn as we explore a 21st Century case, that of the Mulhalls, a troubled family finding itself in the center (or, in Europe, centre) of a controversy that popped up when a severed leg was found floating in Dublin’s Royal Ca…
