In 1977, the small town of Dansville, Michigan, was shattered by a fire that killed a man in his sleep. But this wasn’t just another tragic house fire.

On the morning of August 17, 2021, the emergency room at Methodist Children’s Hospital in San Antonio, Texas, was bustling with the usual chaos of a busy hospital. Nurses rushed between patients, doctors consulted charts, and worried parents lingered by their children’s bedsides. Then, the doors burst open. A little boy was rushed inside—his body frail, his skin bruised, his breath shallow. He was barely clinging to life…

The Wonnangatta Valley is as beautiful as it is remote, a vast expanse of wilderness nestled deep in Victoria’s High Country. It’s the kind of place where people go to disappear—sometimes by choice, sometimes not. When experienced campers Russell Hill and Carol Clay vanished without a trace in March 2020, their disappearance left behind more questions than answers.

At the St. Charles County 911 dispatch centre, the holiday season had brought an unusually calm night on one of the final days of 2018. But just before midnight, that all changed.

The Pulitzer Prize-winning podcast returns for its second season!  

Seven years after his release from prison, former juvenile lifer Luis "Suave" Gonzalez seems to be thriving. His career has taken off, he’s in a committed relationship and he’s received public recognition after telling his story on the podcast. Suave always thought once he was out of prison and found stability in his new life, he would finally feel truly free. But freedom, it turns out, is more complicated than it seems. "Suave" is a deeply intimate portrait of a man battling the lingering trauma of incarceration and his search for happiness in the outside world after a near-lifetime in prison. In this season we explore the long shadow of prison.

The East Village in the late 1980s was a world of its own—gritty, chaotic, and teeming with eccentric characters. Among them was Daniel Rakowitz, a self-proclaimed prophet who roamed the streets with his pet rooster, spouting bizarre religious doctrines. Most dismissed him as just another neighborhood oddball. But behind his rambling sermons and vacant stare lurked something far more sinister.

When his friends and acquaintances began hearing whispers of a horrific crime—one so grotesque it seemed impossible to be true—those whispers soon turned into a shocking reality.

When emergency responders arrived at a home in Toronto on a cold November morning in 2002, they found a little boy lying lifeless on the floor.
