S20 Ep113: Mothman: Sightings and Investigations of the Iconic Flying Cryptid w/Richard Estep and Tobias Wayland
Darkness Radio presents Mothman: Sightings and Investigations of the Iconic Flying Cryptid with Paranormal Investigators/Authors, Richard Estep and Tobias Wayland!
When a large, winged humanoid with glowing red eyes was spotted in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, the Mothman legend was born. Since that fateful November night, the flying cryptid has become one of the most famous monsters of all time.
Richard Estep and renowned Mothman researcher Tobias Wayland document firsthand witness accounts and conduct detailed investigations with the hope of seeing the iconic cryptid themselves. This book chronicles their discoveries, which include large concentrations of sightings in the Chicago and Lake Michigan area. They delve into the science of Mothman, where he may reside and travel, and much more.
From the encounter at Dufield Pond to the Van Meter Visitor, Mothman presents terrifying experiences with the black, red-eyed creature that no one―including you―will ever forget.
Richard and Tobias join Darkness Radio today to talk about their new book, about the theories of Charles Fort and John Keel. They talk about some of the more famous Mothman cases and festivals, and then talk about why one should be skeptical of a Mothman sighting and what one could be seeing instead!

S20 Ep111: Crime And Unusual Punishment: The Psychological Realities Of Federal Prison w/Former Psychologist/Author, Paul Smith
True Crime Tuesday Presents Crime And Unusual Punishment: The Psychological Realities Of Federal Prison w/Former Psychologist/Author, Paul Smith!
Paul Smith was a clinical psychologist sentenced to 51 months for healthcare fraud and in his new book, confronts the harsh realities of federal prison. Incarcerated amid the chaos of the COVID pandemic, he endured a relentless odyssey through eight different prison facilities, caught in a near-perpetual cycle of transfer. Through his expert lens, CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT: A Memoir of the Psychological Realities of Federal Prison unveils the stark truth of an uncivilized, harsh, and insane system that erodes the very essence of humanity.
The author reveals a grim truth: extended exposure to the cruel environment of prison—crafted by government policy and the ruthless prisoner code—strips away humanity, pushing individuals toward savagery. Drawing from his own struggle to preserve his sense of self and the hard-earned wisdom of those who survived years of confinement, he offers a raw, introspective exploration of survival under psychological siege.
On today's episode, we sit down with Paul and talk to him about the psychological effects of the prison system on the average inmate, whether every inmate is redeemable, and changing over the prison system from a punitive system to a truly reformative one and what model should be used as an example. We also relive Paul's story and recall the pitfalls that led to his downfall...

Here in North America, there be monsters! Jason Offutt takes you on a thrilling adventure across all twenty-three countries―as well as every state and territory of the US, Canada, and Mexico―to meet one or more monsters in each location. Featuring illustrations throughout his new book, "Chasing North American Monsters, A Guide To Over 250 Creatures From Greenland to Guatemala", this book travels to Alaska, the Caribbean, Greenland, and beyond.
• Find the horned boa known as Madre de Aguas in Cuba.
• Head to Honduras to spot el Comelenguas, the tongue-eating giant bird.
• Catch a glimpse of the Grafton Monster along West Virginia's roads.

From Arizona's Lizard Man to Canada's Wendigo, this book opens your eyes to the monstrous wonders of North America. Are you up for the chase?
On Today's show, we break down some of Jason's favorite stories from the book. We ask him if one of the creatures in the book could truly be in Tim's yard! And, we dig deeper into why certain legends and lore exist in common in different areas across the world!
