  • TRIGGER WARNING: This episode deals with murder and suicide.
    This week, Ben talks about some very serious crimes that happened in his home town very near to him. The first story is about his elderly neighbors, ones he had known pretty well, who were discovered dead in their home late one night, and was rumored to be a suicide pact. The second story is about Ben walking past a murder-suicide on his way to school, but only finding out the very tragic details later. Plus, Ben went on the same route of the infamous Greyhouse Bus murder, which is when a man was randomly murdered and cannibalized on a morning bus route.

  • How is it that Ben, a self-described introvert, is able to talk to random strangers and hack into Zoom calls? Simple, he's a psycho! This week, Ben describes his thought processes before he approaches a crowd and tells the story behind his most recent video where he pretended to be a Walmart employee and posted it to TikTok. He breaks down how he produces his videos using a little thing called movie magic.
