Season 17, Episode 4
The Murder of Stanford White
Architect Stanford White was one of New York’s most revered architects who built the second Madison Square Garden & the Washington Square Arch, which stand today. In public, he was a bon vivant who moved with old school wealthy and the nouveau riche. He was also a creep who participated in the sexual assault of several young women as part of a group of entitled men in New York’s high society. A Creep, Harry Thaw, killed him on June 25, 1906, because of one such assault on actress Evelyn Nesbit who was 16.
The trials of Harry Thaw caught the nation’s interest and are a part of NYC lore. In this episode, we will discuss the major players and what happened to Evelyn after she outlived the Creeps.
Trigger warning: Sexual assault and abuse

Andy Dick
You probably know Andy Dick from the “The Ben Stiller Show” or “NewsRadio.” But he’s also famous for a very long history of harassing, groping, licking, and punching people, as well as whipping *it out in public. He has struggled with drug and alcohol abuse, but that’s no excuse for his behavior. What a creep.Sources for this episode

Season 26, Episode 4
President Ronald Reagan and the AIDS crisis
When the AIDS epidemic started in the early ’80s, the Reagan administration's response mainly involved making jokes in the daily press briefings. Throughout his two terms as president, Reagan and his administration didn’t even do the bare minimum to help. According to The Atlantic, almost 83,000 cases of AIDS were confirmed while Reagan was in the White House, and nearly 50,000 people died of the disease. Reagan, what a creep.

John Harvey Kellogg: Creepy Cereal Advocate
What a Creep
01/24/25 • 52 min
John Harvey Kellogg
Season 28, Episode 2
Kellogg’s Corn Flakes was the boring cereal in my Kellogg’s cereal variety pack, but it’s the one that started them all. And one of the men behind that cereal was John Harvey Kellogg.
John Harvey Kellogg championed nutrition and a holistic approach to health. But he was also a eugenicist, which, if you don’t know, is the inaccurate theory that humans can be improved through selective breeding of populations. He also advocated for forced sterilization of anyone he deemed unintelligent or immoral. Oh, and he launched a really messed anti-masturbation campaign that saw the genitals of young boys and girls mutilated.
John Harvey Kellogg: What a creep.

Charles “Smitty” Schmid
Life magazine wrote a cover story about Charles “Smitty” Schmid in March 1967 describing teenagers as basically animals that race, do drugs, have sex, and will never “snitch” on anyone--even a 22-year-old pedophile Creep who wears heavy makeup and killed one of their schoolmates. This story is about a man dubbed the “Pied Piper of Tucson” who acted like a murderous Wooderson.
Trigger warnings: murder, sexual assault, and animal abuse

Season 28, Episode 9
Betty Broderick is a convicted murderer known for the killing of her ex-husband, Dan Broderick, and his second wife, Linda Kolkena Broderick, in 1989. The case gained widespread media attention (including a memorable appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show) due to its dramatic elements of betrayal, divorce, and revenge.
Her crimes were the subject of two televison movies starring Meredith Baxter (The Betty Broderick Story) and a USA limited series (Dirty John: Betty) with Amanda Peet and Christian Slater.
Has she ever taken responsibility for the pain she has caused? We will get into that with this episode. Trigger Warnings: DV, mention of suicide, and murder. Sources for this episode

Sun City and Artists United Against Apartheid
What a Creep
08/23/24 • 68 min
Season 26, Episode 5
Sun City and Apartheid in South Africa
Sun City is a luxury resort and casino complex in South Africa. During the apartheid era (1948-1990s), it became infamous for hosting international artists despite the global cultural boycott of South Africa. The South African government promoted Sun City as a major entertainment destination, but for many, it symbolized the oppression and exploitation of apartheid. Artists United Against Apartheid was a collective of musicians who came together in 1985 to raise awareness and protest apartheid, mainly targeting the Sun City resort. Steven Van Zandt, a musician and member of Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band, and record producer Arthur Baker spearheaded the group. They were outraged by the continued performances of international artists at Sun City despite the call for a cultural boycott of South Africa.Trigger Warning: Racism

Libs of TikTok
Season 24, Episode 2
Libs of TikTok is a far-right social media account run by Chaya Raichik. Basically, its whole schtick is adding hateful commentary to content created by left-wing and LGBTQ+ people on social media platforms.
Libs of TikTok has been blamed for sparking bomb threats, property damage, shooting threats, written and verbal harassment, and other forms of violence against individuals, hospitals, and schools across the country. The content posted on that account is funneled directly into Fox News, The Federalist, and NewsMax to generate more outrage and stoke hatred toward the gay and transgender community.
