Dark History

Hi, friends! Happy Wednesday!

Listen... I know shopping for the holidays can be a total drag. You never know what to get that testy aunt who hates literally everything or the "woo woo friend" who won't shut up about their crystals. Don't worry, I got you covered.

I would never leave you hanging, so I dug through my favorite stories from Season 4 to bring you the 2025 Dark History Gift Guide. 

Throw those boring stocking stuffers and gift cards in the fireplace. Because I got everything from baby cages to yogurt enemas. 

Sit back, pile the hot cocoa high with mini marshmallows and dim the lights because we are looking back at some of the wildest, most diabolical stories from this season to find gifts that really send a message.

192: The 2025 Gift Guide - A Very Dark History Holiday Special

Hi, friends! Happy Wednesday!

Welcome to the fourth... and maybe final... Joanie Awards. Tear. But don't be sad that it might be over... be happy because it all happened.

After a season jam packed with horny nuns, rogue presidents, cursed statues, disastrous love lives (ancient AND modern), Britney impressions and some evil, shedding mittens… we’re closing things out with a bang.

In this special Dark History finale... me, Joan, and Paul roll out the red carpet to honor the best, the messiest, and the most unhinged moments of Season Four. I'm talking iconic costumes, surprise musical numbers, historic divas, cursed inventions, Vegas chaos, medical nightmares, and impressions that are so bad... they're good. 

Plus, I pull back the curtain with some never-before-seen clips, behind-the-scenes moments, and fan comments that sent me into full spirals. It’s chaotic, it’s heartfelt, it’s ridiculous… it’s The Joanies, babe.

Will this be the last one ever? I honestly don't know. But if it is... we’re going out in true Dark History fashion: curious, laughing, learning, oversharing, and maybe questioning our life choices just a little bit.

Seriously, thank you so much for tuning in all season. Without you, I would not be here.

191: Chaos, Bloopers, and the most unhinged things Bailey said all year!

Hi, friends! Happy Wednesday!

What if I told you that one of the most influential... and mysterious cult leaders in American history is someone most people have never heard of? 

And that Jim Jones himself, yes Jonestown Jim Jones, got many of his ideas from same guy?

Today, we’re diving into the wild and complicated story of Father Divine—the charismatic leader behind the Peace Mission Movement, a man who inspired millions, shaped pieces of the civil rights era, built entire communities from the ground up… and also demanded unwavering loyalty that crossed more than a few lines.

This isn’t your typical cult story. It’s part spiritual revolution, part empire-building, part “wait, WHAT?!” And somehow still a chapter of American history no one talks about. And we should because it brings up an interesting question...

Where’s the line between a movement that helps people… and one that controls them? And at what point does something become a cult?

Let’s get into the Dark History of Father Divine. 

And when you're done... go check out my MMM episode about Jonestown: https://audioboom.com/posts/8164237-jonestown-massacre-apocalyptic-cult-who-was-jim-jones

190: The Mysterious Cult Leader Who Inspired Jonestown - Father Divine

Hi, friends! Happy Wednesday!

You’ve seen The Wizard of Oz... the ruby slippers, the Yellow Brick Road, the flying monkeys… But you've also heard rumblings of some dark rumors, haven't you?

Well, behind all that glitter and Technicolor magic was a nightmare of toxic makeup, real fires, starvation diets, terror in Munchkinland and a studio system that nearly killed a teenage Judy Garland.

In today’s episode of Dark History, let's follow the (bloodsoaked?) yellow brick road backstage to uncover the shocking truth behind one of Hollywood’s most iconic movies. 

From the Tin Man’s near-death experience to the Witch catching fire on set (literally), to asbestos snow and all sorts of horrible abuse — this is the wicked story of The Wizard of Oz that MGM never wanted you to hear.

189: The Wicked Truth Behind Hollywood’s Favorite Movie - The Wizard of Oz

Hi friends. Happy Wednesday. 

Today’s episode is personal. It’s painful. And it’s important. We’re talking about the Armenian Genocide... a chapter of history that millions experienced, yet many still deny or have never been taught.

I’ve always known I wanted to cover this story because of my family history. But every time I tried, it never felt like the right moment. The truth is… there is no “right moment.” The right thing is to remember, to learn, and to honor those who lived through it... and those who didn’t.

In today's episode, we'll look at how the Armenian community in the Ottoman Empire was targeted, how the genocide was carried out under the chaos of World War I, the stories of survival and resistance, and why recognition of these events is still debated today.

History isn’t always pretty. But understanding it helps us recognize injustice when we see it... and stop it before it happens again.

And before I go... I mention a couple sources in the episode that I wanted to link in the description box. Here they are:

188: The Mass Murders That Set The Stage for Hitler

Hi friends. Happy Wednesday. More importantly...

🎃 Happy Halloween!! 👻

Grab your holiest water and close the curtains, because I've got the perfect episode to button up spooky season. We are diving headfirst into the real Dark History of Exorcisms — and it’s crazier than the movies ever showed us. 

From a convent full of “possessed” nuns shouting filthy things in 1600s France (yep, horny demons and all), to the actual story that inspired The Exorcist, to modern-day influencer priests turning demonic battles into viral moments online… this episode has everything: mass hysteria, scandal, religion, fame, and a whole lot of WTF.

So light a candle, clutch your pillowcase full of candy, and get ready to question what’s real, what’s hysteria, and what happens when... the devil goes viral.

187: Possessed Nuns, Mass Hysteria, and an Influencer Priest: DH of Exorcisms

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!

No tricks. Just treats here this spooky season. 

Over the years, many of your have commented that your like to put Dark History on and just let it play in the background. So, instead of you having to shuffle through a mish mash of episodes... I did the hard work for you and created a special themed playlist, if you will.

Welcome to... Tales from the Dark History Crypt. A compilation episode made up of my handpicked freaky favorites from over the years. 

I'm talking everything from Satanic Panic gripping the American countryside to a spellbinding spiritual leader who had Russian Royalty under his control. We got witches, we got psychics and we got conspiracy theories so insane... they just might be true.

So lock your door, light some candles and pull that blankie up tight. Spooky season is upon us with Tales from the Dark History Crypt.

186: Tales from the Dark History Crypt - A Spooky Season Special

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!

I learned about a place in Alaska where more than 20,000 people have vanished — planes, hikers, politicians — and almost none have ever been found. And I had to do an episode on it. 

It’s called the Alaska Triangle and it's a remote stretch of wilderness bigger than California and notorious for swallowing people, aircraft, and evidence whole. No wreckage. No signals. Just… POOF... gone.

Today, we uncover the chilling stories behind those icey disappearances — from a massive military plane that vanished mid-flight, to a congressman investigating JFK's assassination who mysteriously disappeared and may have been silenced. 

But... here's the thing... the deeper you go, the stranger it gets. Search crews swear they hear voices in the darkness, rumors swirl about an underground pyramid and apparently there's a government site there that some claim can control the weather.

Is this just a deadly stretch of wilderness? A Cold War cover-up? Or is something far stranger hiding in plain sight? Forget the Bermuda Triangle. Because the Dark History of the Alaska Triangle is going to mess with your head.

185: The Alaska Triangle: Disappearances, Dead Ends, and the Dark Truth Beneath It All

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!

So the other night I was deep into my usual bedtime routine of doomscrolling, and I stumbled across this headline that said: “DID YOU KNOW: The Last Witch Trial Was in 1944.”

And I was like… I’m sorry, what? 1944? Like while the rest of the world was fighting Nazis, someone was in a courtroom yelling, “She’s a WITCH”? Be for real. 

That sent me down one of the craziest rabbit holes yet. And I quickly realized… wow. Everything I thought I knew about witch trials… Changed. Forever. 

Not only was witchcraft something you could go to court for less than a hundred years ago, but the *FIRST* witch in America wasn’t even in Salem! The first witch trial in America happened DECADES before Salem! 

Yeah. So turns out, witches never really went out of style. And it all started way before you think. So I’m here to set the record straight on the witches no one talks about. Welcome to the dark history of Witches Who Got Away.

184: The Devil's Secretaries or Scapegoats? The Witches History Erased

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!

So the other day, I was googling jelly beans. Don’t ask why, I was in a mood. But I ended up falling down a rabbit hole, and suddenly… I was reading about Ronald Reagan. 

Apparently, Reagan was *obsessed* with jelly beans. I guess he started eating them as a way to quit smoking. He swapped cigarettes for jelly beans. Inspired. 

But once he was hooked, he never looked back. There were jelly beans on Air Force One. Jelly beans in the Oval Office. Jelly beans sent to space with astronauts, I am not joking. 

At this point I stumbled onto a quote about his wife, Nancy Reagan, and let me just say...America may have called her the First Lady, but Hollywood had a slightly different title for her. If you know, you know.

So today, I’ve got quite a story for you. Blow jobs, secret weapon deals, astrology, and a very intense power couple. 

This man ignored a literal pandemic, while letting his wife schedule national security briefings based on his horoscope.

So join me for the Dark History of Ronald Reagan. Let’s get into it. 

I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show. So here's the link if you want to check it out. IDK. lol: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/139701263-bailey

183: The MESSY Life of Ronald Reagan: Snitching, Scandals & DEADLY Decision

In the late 1800s, something really cool was happening down in New Orleans. A melting pot of cultures was blending to form a new style of music. These incredible sounds inspired a music revolution that swept the nation almost overnight. People LOVED Jazz. But there were some people who decided jazz was the devil’s music. Today, Bailey tells the shocking story of how the Federal Government tied Jazz to “immoral” behavior and aimed to take down its biggest star: Billie Holiday.
