RedHanded

RedHanded the podcast jumps head first into all manner of macabre madness. We cover everything from big time serial killers (and those you may never have heard of), to hauntings, possessions, disturbing mysteries, bizarre whodunits and basically anything that tickles our creepy fancy. So, join us, plug in, sit back and prepare for scares.

Joseph James DeAngelo is a burglar, a killer, and a rapist. A vile man with a proclivity for terrorising and sexually violating women. But that wasn’t everyone’s perception of the elderly man who was arrested in the yard of his suburban Sacramento home. To his daughters he was a loving father, to his employers he’d been a reliable worker, and to the wider community he was just another sleepy old man living out his retirement. 

So who is Joseph James DeAngelo and how did he co-exist as a “regular Jo” and the Golden Stake Killer?

The Golden State Killer - Part 4: Joseph James DeAngelo | #463

What could drive a person to eat another human being? Well, as it turns out, humankind has actually been surprisingly open to a little cannibalistic carpaccio.

From funeral traditions where families gather to gobble up their loved one as a mark of respect; to a European craze for drinking liquefied, mummified human brains (plus a surprising number of societies who just really liked the taste) – here is ShortHand’s history of inter-personal dining.

ShortHand: Cannibalism

For almost as long as we’ve made films, we’ve made horror films – but what happens when the terror isn’t just on screen? Movie-making lore is riddled with stories of bizarre accidents on set, creepy coincidences and even murders, all of which can give rise to cult followings and, in some cases, rumours of a curse over the whole production. 

From Indian ghosts to demonic hauntings, we run through a ShortHanded historical horror archive and investigate whether these sinister events were the result of supernatural curses, coincidence or just bloody good PR.

ShortHand: Cursed Films

To find the most prolific and violent serial rapist and killer the state of California had ever seen, took over fifty years, and some ethically questionable methods. Public DNA databases were trawled without their users consent, samples were entered under false pretences, and hundreds if not thousands of people had their rights violated. 

But, they did eventually catch their man, and walk him up the garden path, leaving a roast to overcook in the oven. 

Join us in part 3 of our now 4 part series on the Golden State Killer as we discuss how Joseph James DeAngelo was finally caught.

The Golden State Killer - Part 3: The Dark Arts of DNA Databases | #462

For decades, the Soviet Union’s top-secret testing site Kapustin Yar didn’t appear on any maps. It was so top-secret, the government relocated an entire town just to make sure none of its residents ever discovered it.

But in the aftermath of the Cold War, stories began to emerge about what the Soviets had really been up to in that remote, arid stretch of land in southern Russia…

From rumours of crashed UFOs to underground labs conducting bonkers alien autopsies, this is the highly-classified ShortHand.

ShortHand: Kapustin Yar – Russia's Area 51

Bryan Kohberger is now claiming his innocence in the Idaho Student Murders. 
And he wants a trial to prove it. 

A year after admitting to the horrific murders of University of Idaho students Kaylee Gonçalves, Maddie Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin back in November 2019, Bryan Kohberger has done yet another U-turn by seeking to withdraw his guilty plea. 

In a petition claiming his lawyers failed to disclose “exculpatory evidence” and pushed him to make a false confession, Kohberger stated that “actual innocence is my truth”...

But does Kohberger have a valid argument? Or is he just playing another sick game?

Hannah and Suruthi break down the latest bizarre twist in the case in this mini-episode. 

And for our full coverage of the Idaho Murders case, make sure to listen to Episode 280 in our RedHanded catalogue.

ShortHand: The Bling Ring

America the beautiful: from sea to shining sea! (...Plus a bunch of random islands 2,000 miles away in the Pacific Ocean.)

The story of why these seven Polynesian islands became part of the US of A is a wild one, taking in a slew of sweet-toothed sugar barons, a pinch of rampant colonialism, and one heroine who refused to let her culture die. When a white militia surrounded the palace of Queen Lili’uokalani, she was ready to spill her “last drop of blood” for the Hawai’ian people. This is the ShortHand.
