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.

9. Chad Entzel: When a Fire Isn’t the Truth
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This is I Fear You, Babe.
Before we talk about how Chad Entzel died, we talk about how he lived.
Chad Entzel was 42 years old, a regular at his bowling league, a working guy with routines and people who expected him to show up. He was not a plot twist in someone else’s story.
This episode walks through the house fire in North Dakota, how investigators realized it wasn’t an accident, and the courtroom record that revealed a conspiracy to cover up Chad’s murder.
This episode is built only on documented facts, court records, plea agreements, trial testimony, and verified reporting.
Because Chad Entzel was a life.
And he deserved better.
