“Family Annihilation”

Human F*ckery

Fatherhood is hard. The responsibility. Late nights and early mornings. Decades of manual and emotional labor. It’s one of the most difficult jobs in the world…and when some men quit, it gets terrifying. This episode tackles familicide, the way-more-common-than-you-would-think occurrence of individuals killing off the family they themselves built. Hosts Edward and Kimberly reach into the archives to report on two mass murders committed by what appeared to be loving fathers: Upstanding citizen Bradford Bishop, a Yale alumnus and military veteran; and Tony De Capua, a hard-working Italian immigrant in the heart of roaring '20s Ohio. Guests this week are New Orleans burlesque all-star Bunny Love, and witchy animal law advocate Jacey Winn, who’ll vote to determine which hosts takes the big win.
