There are numerous conditions and ailments in the world, each with its own set of unique and sometimes unusual remedies. However, the belief that incest could "cure" a son's sexuality is not just deeply flawed, but also shockingly appalling. This belief tragically played out in the life of Barbara Baekeland, a former New York fashion model and quintessential Hollywood socialite. In the 1960s, Barbara viewed her son's homosexuality as a severe "condition" that needed correction. Her unimaginable solution was to attempt a "cure" through incest, an abhorrent decision that ultimately led to her own brutal death.

  • EP106: Villain or Vigilante?
    Jan 1 2025
    Visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod to join our family of freaks and gain access to exclusive content! In the stifling confines of a teeming New York City subway car, a fatal confrontation recently erupted that sent shockwaves throughout the nation/world. Jordan Neely, a former NYC Michael Jackson impersonator struggling with homelessness and well-documented mental health challenges, was ensnared in a lethal chokehold by Daniel Penny, a U.S. Marine veteran who perceived Jordan as a threat to public safety. Chillingly captured on bystander video, the terrifying scene unfolded with Jordan's desperate gasps for breath and the unflinching determination of Daniel's resolve. This incredibly tragic incident has ignited an ongoing, volatile public debate over the deeper societal issues it has illuminated: systemic racism, vigilante justice, mental health crises, and civilian reactions in moments fraught with perceived danger.

  • EP104: Silent Night: The Unsolved Mystery of JonBenét Ramsey (Part 1)
    Dec 25 2024
    Visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod to join our family of freaks and gain access to exclusive content! At 1:05 PM on December 26, 1996, the body of a beautiful six-year-old girl was found by her father in a dark, frigid basement room of their family home in Boulder, Colorado. Just seven hours earlier, at 5:52 AM, the child’s mother frantically called the police to report her daughter missing after discovering a two-and-a-half-page ransom note on a spiral staircase within their residence. From that moment on, the tragic and brutal death of JonBenét Ramsey - a daughter, sister, niece, friend, and beauty queen - has captivated the public imagination, dominating headlines and igniting endless discussions and debates about the identity of her killer. In Part 1 of our two-part coverage, we delve deeply into the myriad questions and theories that swirl around this case. We dissect the intricate details of the ransom note, analyze the findings of the autopsy report, and begin to uncover the often horrific ways in which the investigation was conducted—or, according to many, NOT investigated. Our exploration aims to cast light on a narrative that transcends mere media spectacle and conjecture—it's about a real little girl whose life ended tragically and whose case cries out for justice and closure.

Disclaimer: The content discussed in this podcast is based on publicly available information and represents allegations only. Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, is entitled to the presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court of law. All individuals discussed in this context are presumed innocent unless otherwise determined by a legal process. This podcast does not assert guilt but instead examines the allegations and public details surrounding the case. In the final chapter of our extensive three-part series on Diddy, we undertake a deep examination of many of the 25 lawsuits that have already been filed — powerful testimonies that lay bare the experiences of those who claim to have suffered abuse at Diddy’s hands. Among these allegations are stories from survivors who were just minors at the time of the abuse. Their courage to speak out presents a fundamental truth: every survivor's voice deserves to be heard. We also shine a light on the legal pathways that have empowered survivors to seek justice: the Adult Survivor’s Act and the New York City Gender-Motivated Violence Act. To close Part 3, we venture into the complex psychology of the alleged perpetrator and peel back the layers of a man who, while now behind bars, continues to assert his innocence. The pursuit of justice is ongoing, and as we unravel the threads of this narrative, we remain committed to uncovering the truth, honoring the survivors, and holding power to account.

  • EP102: Friday the 13th: History, Lore, Serial Killers - OH MY!
    Dec 13 2024
    Visit Patreon.com/psychopediapod to join our family of freaks and gain access to exclusive content! Friday the 13th is feared by many but understood by few—until now (cue creepy music). For those trapped in its superstitious grip, it serves as a harbinger of doom, a day when the veil between the real and the supernatural grows thin, and the ordinary and the extraordinary collide in terrifying ways. While most think of a masked killer stalking through the woods, there’s a darker truth beneath the fiction; where fear is real, not imagined. Throughout history, Friday the 13th has been marked by monumental events—some gory, others financial, and still others biblical. Today, we’ll not only unravel the disturbing history of Friday the 13th but also dive into the chilling case of Peter Moore, Wales' worst serial killer, whose twisted crimes are eerily linked to the dark legacy of this cursed day.

Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, is entitled to the presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court of law. All individuals discussed in this context are presumed innocent unless otherwise determined by a legal process. This podcast does not assert guilt but instead examines the allegations and public details surrounding the case. In Part 2 of our gripping three-part series on Sean "Diddy" Combs, we peel back the layers on Diddy’s own past and uncover disturbing possibilities of sexual abuse during his childhood. Our investigation reveals that he attended an all-boys Catholic school during a period rife with scandal and horrific abuse, with several clergy members later named, arrested, and convicted for their involvement in these horrific acts. Additionally, we take a deep dive into the explosive lawsuit filed by his incredibly brave ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura, a legal battle that has sparked a wave of civil suits from other alleged victims of sexual abuse seeking justice. We also unravel the chilling details of "The Diddy List," an unofficial roster of A-list celebrities who may have been involved in, complicit in, or at the very least aware of the shocking acts of sexual exploitation and violence that took place at Diddy’s notorious parties and in hotel rooms. Please listen with caution.

Disclaimer: The content discussed in this podcast is based on publicly available information and represents allegations only. Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, is entitled to the presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court of law. All individuals discussed in this context are presumed innocent unless otherwise determined by a legal process. This podcast does not assert guilt but instead examines the allegations and public details surrounding the case. For our 100th episode of Psychopedia (!), we are launching our first-ever three-part series on Sean Combs, aka Diddy. With the explosive headlines and outrageous accusations surrounding this self-proclaimed king, it's impossible to ignore that Diddy currently sits behind bars at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, NY, awaiting trial. In this episode (Part 1), we start at the end, diving into the explosive federal indictments Diddy faces, including charges of racketeering conspiracy, human trafficking, sex trafficking, abuse, coercion, use of violence and threats, and obstruction of justice. We then take a closer look at Diddy’s life, beginning with his childhood and tracing the twists and turns that led to his meteoric rise to fame. Along the way, we discuss shocking untimely deaths and controversial murders that many believe are linked to the music mogul, and explore the fascinating—and at times outlandish—conspiracy theories surrounding him. We also reveal Diddy’s alleged sexual proclivities, perversions, and crimes that have cast a long shadow over his legacy. To close Part 1, we peel back the curtain on Diddy's infamous “freak-offs,” which were allegedly ongoing drug-fueled orgies involving unconsenting individuals who were forced to participate. We expose the dark underworld Diddy allegedly cultivated behind closed doors, a world he thought would remain hidden forever...until now. Because the door has swung wide open to let in the light, exposing what is reportedly a twisted truth within.
