You asked for it: this week, Intelligentsia dives into the dark, weird, and wildly fascinating world of serial killers for our “listener’s pick” episode. We trace the history—from Jack the Ripper to America’s “golden age” of murderers like Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, and John Wayne Gacy—and unpack how they became cultural obsessions. Where the true crime girlies at?
We also get into Hollywood’s fixation on killers (Dexter, Monster, American Psycho), the psychology behind psychopathy and trauma, and the bigger question: why can’t we look away? Dark history, pop culture, and true-crime brain rot—welcome in.
