16 Feb 2023 | Gary Ridgeway: Sexual Sadist...? (Part 2) | 00:11:58 | |
Part 2 explores the personality dynamics of Gary Ridgeway, his home life, and romantic relationships. Today, in the spirit of all things unknown, I am going to be exploring the Sexual Sadism of Gary Ridgeway aka The Green River Killer. I recently had the coolest experience of being able to participate in a documentary on Gary Ridgeway that will be released soon on Tubi. Full Episodes ---> Patreon.com/doctorpsychopodcast In preparation for this documentary, I discovered multiple experts who classified Ridgeway as a sexual sadist, and I myself classified him as one on the documentary as well. Why do experts commonly believe that The Green River Killer was a sexual sadist, you ask? Why, it’s because he strangled them to death after having sex with them. Sexual sadism is when you get sexual thrill from the prolonged torture and the enjoyment of watching your victim suffer. Compared to other sexual sadists, Ridgeway finished his victims rather quickly, and did not take pleasure in prolonging their deaths or suffering, nor did he take the time to revel in the act of killing them. Ridgeway simply strangled them after sex. Is that really sexual sadism? To answer this question, my wonderful stalkers, let’s dive into the Ridgeway case. I will recap the history of the Green River Killer, and then consider the criteria for sexual sadism to see if it lines up with Gary Rigeway. And of course, I want to hear your thoughts too! | |||

12 Mar 2018 | The Mandela Effect: False Memory & Public Perception | 01:02:58 | |
Michael Drane (@upcmd) & Ryan Lee sit down to discuss this mindf*ck social phenomenon where the public has a false memory about certain things. The term "Mandela Effect" was first coined in 2013 after Nelson Mandela's death, because many people mis-remember him dying in prison in the 1980s. There are many examples of this, and the conversation surrounding the Mandela Effect has even escalated to the possibility of alternate realities and parallel universes. What are YOUR thoughts?

Imagine the horror of being kidnapped. Let that sink in for a moment. Now, imagine the horror of being buried alive, in a box, underground—which is worse? Now, imagine both.
