Gertrude "World's Best Caretaker" Baniszewski

58m · Published 21 Sep 12:33
*Disclaimer- this episode is a heavy one, and involves the abuse and murder of a child by adults and other children, so feel free to skip it if you have an intact moral compass.*Join us as we discuss the Caretaker of the Year back in 1965: Gertrude Baniszewski. She is most famous for the abuse, torture, and murder of 16 year old Sylvia Likens, but that’s not all there is to fangirl over about this terrible woman. Ms. Baniszewski was quite the catch romantically speaking, with her pill-popping zombie-eyed stare and smoker’s cough. Did I mention that she started a profitable business down in her basement by simply persuading impressionable youths into torturing a classmate yet? I didn’t? Well, you’ll just have to listen if you want to find out more and then cry a little while questioning if there even are any redeeming qualities in the whole damn human race.Be sure to subscribe/rate/review and why not go ahead and satisfy your curiosity and check out our Patreon page at https://www.patreon.com/terriblepeopledoingterriblethings.

34m · Published 14 Sep 14:21
Join us as we discuss one of the worst modern day abuses of medical power: Dr. Death himself, Christopher Duntsch.

Go Volunteers! Kind of..... Anywho, check out Episode 11 to find out more about Duntsch's horror story of a medical record, and the lack of checks and balances that allowed him to continue working as a surgeon despite multiple signs of incompetency and intent to harm.

Jonestown: Don't Drink Anything They Serve Here

1h 0m · Published 24 Aug 15:52
Join us as we discuss another terrible cult: Jonestown! Learn about the infamous leader of this super commune of rainbow children, Mr. Jim Jones and how he was somehow the reincarnation of both the dead and the living.

55m · Published 17 Aug 17:47
Join us as we discuss one of our favorite terrible people topics: cults! We dive into the deep end with our discussion on the lesser known Canadian cult, The Ant Hill Kids, and we love every minute of it. Hear about how we would be if we were cult leaders, and how we compare to more famous cult leaders who probably force more than just weed and Cheetos on their followers. Learn some new practices to avoid in the wonderful world of home surgery as we discuss the plethora of unnecessary medical interventions performed by an untrained madman who enjoyed playing doctor with his followers. Did I mention the castration yet? I didn't. Well, you'll just have to listen to find out more.
