I Fear You, Babe
I Fear You, Babe is a true crime and psychological horror podcast hosted by NYC storyteller Dino Malvone.
Each episode dives deep into real cases where intuition whispered and was ignored. The moments where something felt off. The seconds that mattered. The fear we talk ourselves out of.
Told without sensationalism and without distance, this series sits inside the emotional aftermath of crime. The victims. The unanswered questions. The quiet decisions that changed everything.
Dark, conversational, and emotionally grounded, I Fear You, Babe is where fear finally gets the mic.
I Fear You, Babe
5. Jordan Neely
This is I Fear You, Babe.
On May 1, 2023, Jordan Neely died on a New York City subway after being restrained by another passenger.
Jordan was a performer. A Michael Jackson impersonator. A man experiencing homelessness and severe mental illness. His death sparked immediate outrage—and a national debate about safety, race, mental health, and who is allowed to exist without consequence.
In this episode, we slow everything down. We examine who Jordan was beyond the headlines, what unfolded on that subway car, and how the justice system responded. We look at the charges, the defenses, and the broader failures that made this confrontation possible.
This is not a story about a single decision.
It’s about the conditions that made that decision feel inevitable.
