202 - The Cult of Tony and Susan Alamo

I've wanted to dig into this story for a couple of years now. Aaron seemed to have EVERYTHING going for him. And he threw it all away through committing the most confusing, impulsive acts of violence. How much did the severe case of CTE football gave him lead to the murder (and probably multiple murders) he committed? Congrats to the Suck Ranger, Tyler Sea, and please wish him luck on the next chapter of his life. He's a great dude and we will miss having him around! Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/4D-opZ7MK4QMerch: https://www.badmagicmerch.comTimesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vThanks to our Patreon supporters for allowing us to donate $12,900 to truckersagainsttrafficking.org and another $1,440 to our scholarship fund! Thanks to Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio for the first soundbed, and "CESARE RIDES AGAIN" by WombatNoisesAudio for the second soundbed. Want to join the Cult of the Curious Private Facebook Group?

In the Spring of 1993, three eight-year-old boys were murdered in West Memphis, Arkansas. And immediately, thanks to outlandish, paranoid Satanic Panic notions, investigative suspicion fell on a local eighteen-year-old, Damien Echols, ignorantly believed to be the leader of a local Satanic cult, and two of his teen friends, falsely believed to be his followers... Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/UiP4cd3rvH8Merch: https://www.badmagicmerch.comTimesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vThanks to our Patreon supporters for allowing us to donate $12,900 to truckersagainsttrafficking.org and another $1,440 to our scholarship fund! Thanks to Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio for the first soundbed, and "CESARE RIDES AGAIN" by WombatNoisesAudio for the second soundbed. Want to join the Cult of the Curious Private Facebook Group?

The story behind the new Iron Claw movie starring Zac Effron and Jeremy Allen White. Was the Von Erich wrestling family actually cursed? I understand why some people think so. Five out of six of wrestling star Fritz Von Erich's sons would die prematurely and tragically, many of them dying shortly after the family became the most famous family in all of professional wrestling. Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/T6Rc-_-Bk04Merch: https://www.badmagicmerch.comTimesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious Private Facebook Group?

The first in what will hopefully be many Short Sucks! 45-60 minute stories delivered in a more traditional type of story-telling. No inside jokes and mythology to keep track of. Just some quick extra entertainment! This episode is all about the life of Grady Stiles, Jr. aka Lobster Boy, a "freak show" performer who truly was a monster. Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ivyX-o9HbCAFor Merch and more, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Whether or not you've seen the recent Amazon and/or Netflix docuseries on Twin Flames Universe, I think you're gonna love this one. Another cult episode, but with a few major twists. This cult was born and still lives primarily online. And rather than selling salvation, it's focused on selling you romance. Jeffrey and Shaleia Divine are true grifters, playing with the lives of their followers in strange and dangerous ways. Also - Happy New Year!
