Hi friends, happy Wednesday! Over the years, many of you have commented that you like to put Dark History on and just let it play in the background. Well... I heard ya. So instead of you having to shuffle through a mish mash of episodes... I did the hard work for you and created a special themed playlist, if you will. Welcome to... Dark Conspiracies! A compilation episode made up of my handpicked, mystifying favorites from over the years. I'm talking everything from the truth behind your grandma's favorite Betty Crocker cookbook to... what in the actual hell is going on up in Alaska? And here's the part that always gets me... there's always at least some truth with every conspiracy theory. So lock your door, light some candles and tighten that tinfoil hat. Because we're digging into some Dark Conspiracies and their unsettling truths. xoBailey ________ FOLLOW ME AROUNDTik Tok: https://bit.ly/3e3jL9vInstagram: http://bit.ly/2nbO4PRFacebook: http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6Twitter: http://bit.ly/2yT4BLVPinterest: http://bit.ly/2mVpXnYYoutube: http://bit.ly/1HGw3OgSnapchat: https://bit.ly/3cC0V9dGoodreads: http://bit.ly/3IVnO7NDiscord: https://discord.gg/BaileySarian RECOMMEND A STORY HERE: [email protected] Related Emails: [email protected] Related Mail: Bailey Sarian 4400 W.

Hi, friends! Happy Wednesday!Welcome to the fourth... and maybe final... Joanie Awards. Tear. But don't be sad that it might be over... be happy because it all happened.After a season jam packed with horny nuns, rogue presidents, cursed statues, disastrous love lives (ancient AND modern), Britney impressions and some evil, shedding mittens… we’re closing things out with a bang.In this special Dark History finale... me, Joan, and Paul roll out the red carpet to honor the best, the messiest, and the most unhinged moments of Season Four. I'm talking iconic costumes, surprise musical numbers, historic divas, cursed inventions, Vegas chaos, medical nightmares, and impressions that are so bad... they're good. Plus, I pull back the curtain with some never-before-seen clips, behind-the-scenes moments, and fan comments that sent me into full spirals. It’s chaotic, it’s heartfelt, it’s ridiculous… it’s The Joanies, babe.Will this be the last one ever? I honestly don't know. But if it is... we’re going out in true Dark History fashion: curious, laughing, learning, oversharing, and maybe questioning our life choices just a little bit.Seriously, thank you so much for tuning in all season. Without you, I would not be here.xoBailey________FOLLOW ME AROUNDTik Tok: https://bit.ly/3e3jL9vInstagram: http://bit.ly/2nbO4PRFacebook: http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6Twitter: http://bit.ly/2yT4BLVPinterest: http://bit.ly/2mVpXnYYoutube: http://bit.ly/1HGw3OgGoodreads: http://bit.ly/3IVnO7NSnapchat: https://bit.ly/3cC0V9dDiscord: https://discord.gg/BaileySarianRECOMMEND A STORY HERE: [email protected] Related Emails: [email protected] Related Mail: Bailey Sarian 4400 W.

Hi, friends! Happy Wednesday!What if I told you that one of the most influential... and mysterious cult leaders in American history is someone most people have never heard of? And that Jim Jones himself, yes Jonestown Jim Jones, got many of his ideas from same guy?Today, we’re diving into the wild and complicated story of Father Divine—the charismatic leader behind the Peace Mission Movement, a man who inspired millions, shaped pieces of the civil rights era, built entire communities from the ground up… and also demanded unwavering loyalty that crossed more than a few lines.This isn’t your typical cult story. It’s part spiritual revolution, part empire-building, part “wait, WHAT?!” And somehow still a chapter of American history no one talks about. And we should because it brings up an interesting question...Where’s the line between a movement that helps people… and one that controls them? And at what point does something become a cult?Let’s get into the Dark History of Father Divine.

Hi, friends! Happy Wednesday!You’ve seen The Wizard of Oz... the ruby slippers, the Yellow Brick Road, the flying monkeys… But you've also heard rumblings of some dark rumors, haven't you?Well, behind all that glitter and Technicolor magic was a nightmare of toxic makeup, real fires, starvation diets, terror in Munchkinland and a studio system that nearly killed a teenage Judy Garland.In today’s episode of Dark History, let's follow the (bloodsoaked?) yellow brick road backstage to uncover the shocking truth behind one of Hollywood’s most iconic movies. From the Tin Man’s near-death experience to the Witch catching fire on set (literally), to asbestos snow and all sorts of horrible abuse — this is the wicked story of The Wizard of Oz that MGM never wanted you to hear.________FOLLOW ME AROUNDTik Tok: https://bit.ly/3e3jL9vInstagram: http://bit.ly/2nbO4PRFacebook: http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6Twitter: http://bit.ly/2yT4BLVPinterest: http://bit.ly/2mVpXnYYoutube: http://bit.ly/1HGw3OgGoodreads: http://bit.ly/3IVnO7NSnapchat: https://bit.ly/3cC0V9dDiscord: https://discord.gg/BaileySarianRECOMMEND A STORY HERE: [email protected] Related Emails: [email protected] Related Mail: Bailey Sarian 4400 W.

Hi friends. Happy Wednesday. Today’s episode is personal. It’s painful. And it’s important. We’re talking about the Armenian Genocide... a chapter of history that millions experienced, yet many still deny or have never been taught.I’ve always known I wanted to cover this story because of my family history. But every time I tried, it never felt like the right moment. The truth is… there is no “right moment.” The right thing is to remember, to learn, and to honor those who lived through it... and those who didn’t.In today's episode, we'll look at how the Armenian community in the Ottoman Empire was targeted, how the genocide was carried out under the chaos of World War I, the stories of survival and resistance, and why recognition of these events is still debated today.History isn’t always pretty. But understanding it helps us recognize injustice when we see it... and stop it before it happens again.And before I go... I mention a couple sources in the episode that I wanted to link in the description box.

Hi friends. Happy Wednesday. More importantly...🎃 Happy Halloween!! 👻Grab your holiest water and close the curtains, because I've got the perfect episode to button up spooky season. We are diving headfirst into the real Dark History of Exorcisms — and it’s crazier than the movies ever showed us. From a convent full of “possessed” nuns shouting filthy things in 1600s France (yep, horny demons and all), to the actual story that inspired The Exorcist, to modern-day influencer priests turning demonic battles into viral moments online… this episode has everything: mass hysteria, scandal, religion, fame, and a whole lot of WTF.So light a candle, clutch your pillowcase full of candy, and get ready to question what’s real, what’s hysteria, and what happens when... the devil goes viral.________FOLLOW ME AROUNDTik Tok: https://bit.ly/3e3jL9vInstagram: http://bit.ly/2nbO4PRFacebook: http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6Twitter: http://bit.ly/2yT4BLVPinterest: http://bit.ly/2mVpXnYYoutube: http://bit.ly/1HGw3OgGoodreads: http://bit.ly/3IVnO7NSnapchat: https://bit.ly/3cC0V9dDiscord: https://discord.gg/BaileySarianRECOMMEND A STORY HERE: [email protected] Related Emails: [email protected] Related Mail: Bailey Sarian 4400 W.

Tales from the Dark History Crypt. A compilation episode made up of my handpicked freaky favorites from over the years. I'm talking everything from Satanic Panic gripping the American countryside to a spellbinding spiritual leader who had Russian Royalty under his control.

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!I learned about a place in Alaska where more than 20,000 people have vanished — planes, hikers, politicians — and almost none have ever been found. And I had to do an episode on it. It’s called the Alaska Triangle and it's a remote stretch of wilderness bigger than California and notorious for swallowing people, aircraft, and evidence whole. No wreckage. No signals. Just… POOF... gone.Today, we uncover the chilling stories behind those icey disappearances — from a massive military plane that vanished mid-flight, to a congressman investigating JFK's assassination who mysteriously disappeared and may have been silenced. But... here's the thing... the deeper you go, the stranger it gets. Search crews swear they hear voices in the darkness, rumors swirl about an underground pyramid and apparently there's a government site there that some claim can control the weather.Is this just a deadly stretch of wilderness? A Cold War cover-up? Or is something far stranger hiding in plain sight? Forget the Bermuda Triangle. Because the Dark History of the Alaska Triangle is going to mess with your head.________FOLLOW ME AROUNDTik Tok: https://bit.ly/3e3jL9vInstagram: http://bit.ly/2nbO4PRFacebook: http://bit.ly/2mdZtK6Twitter: http://bit.ly/2yT4BLVPinterest: http://bit.ly/2mVpXnYYoutube: http://bit.ly/1HGw3OgSnapchat: https://bit.ly/3cC0V9dGoodreads: http://bit.ly/3IVnO7NDiscord: https://discord.gg/BaileySarianRECOMMEND A STORY HERE: [email protected] Related Emails: [email protected] Related Mail: Bailey Sarian 4400 W.

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!So the other night I was deep into my usual bedtime routine of doomscrolling, and I stumbled across this headline that said: “DID YOU KNOW: The Last Witch Trial Was in 1944.”And I was like… I’m sorry, what? 1944? Like while the rest of the world was fighting Nazis, someone was in a courtroom yelling, “She’s a WITCH”? Be for real. That sent me down one of the craziest rabbit holes yet. And I quickly realized… wow. Everything I thought I knew about witch trials… Changed. Forever. Not only was witchcraft something you could go to court for less than a hundred years ago, but the *FIRST* witch in America wasn’t even in Salem! The first witch trial in America happened DECADES before Salem! Yeah. So turns out, witches never really went out of style. And it all started way before you think. So I’m here to set the record straight on the witches no one talks about.

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!So the other day, I was googling jelly beans. Don’t ask why, I was in a mood. But I ended up falling down a rabbit hole, and suddenly… I was reading about Ronald Reagan. Apparently, Reagan was *obsessed* with jelly beans. I guess he started eating them as a way to quit smoking. He swapped cigarettes for jelly beans. Inspired. But once he was hooked, he never looked back. There were jelly beans on Air Force One. Jelly beans in the Oval Office. Jelly beans sent to space with astronauts, I am not joking. At this point I stumbled onto a quote about his wife, Nancy Reagan, and let me just say...America may have called her the First Lady, but Hollywood had a slightly different title for her. If you know, you know.So today, I’ve got quite a story for you. Blow jobs, secret weapon deals, astrology, and a very intense power couple. This man ignored a literal pandemic, while letting his wife schedule national security briefings based on his horoscope.So join me for the Dark History of Ronald Reagan. Let’s get into it. I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show. So here's the link if you want to check it out.

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!The other day I was craving a big fat bowl of Honey Smacks cereal with whole milk. When I was a kid, that was luxury to me. But I hadn’t had them in forever so I didn’t even know if they were still around. You know me - I googled “HONEY SMACKS… DISCONTINUED??” Good news, they’re around. Bad news… I found out about Kellogg’s, the company that makes them, has been in some hot water lately. We all know inflation sucks and it’s affecting *everything*, especially food prices. Tons of families across America are struggling to put food on the table. So the media asked a Kelloggs CEO for his reaction on that. And his response? He essentially said, [SARCASTIC] “MAYBE THEY SHOULD EAT CEREAL FOR DINNER.” Awkward. But this did get me thinking - why *do* we eat cereal for breakfast? Well I looked into it, and I stumbled into the world of John Harvey Kellogg, the man behind Kelloggs. And my mind was blown. Because behind that sweet little box of Honey Smacks is a freaky origin story. We’re talkin’ culty health retreats, yogurt enemas, and a crusade against masturbation. So buckle up if you dare, for the Dark History of …Kelloggs.  I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show.

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!Listen… I know it’s not *officially* Fall yet, okay? But we all know Fall means Halloween, and Halloween is my favorite holiday. So I wanted to get started celebrating a little early this year. I did a soft launch on my decorations. Put out a few pumpkins and spider webs. The crows in my backyard approved. And I decided this weekend, I was going to see a scary movie. I found out the last Conjuring movie was coming out and I was so excited. This one is all about Ed and Lorraine Warren, the demonologists behind all the other Conjuring movies. And even though there have been *so* many Conjuring movies, I realized that I never looked into Ed and Lorraine Warren myself. And listen… I’m left with nothing but questions. Were they legit? What made them so famous? And what was the reason they left the spotlight? Was it really because of one terrifying case, or, was the reason much darker? I need your opinions! Welcome to the Dark History of Ed and Lorraine Warren! I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show. So here's the link if you want to check it out.

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!Did you guys ever see those ads for the Rejuvenique face mask? It was this electric face mask that looked like it was straight out of Friday the 13th. The guy on the infomercials was like “imagine what doing 8 situps a second could do for your abs! Well, Rejuvenique is doing exactly that… but with your face!” Well, apparently, years later, the FDA issued a warning about this miracle device. Turns out, the Rejuvenique face mask was actually causing their skin to sag and age *more.* I could be wrong, but it makes me feel like it will only be another ten years before someone realizes that LED lights are *ALSO* doing more harm than good. And this sent me down a rabbit hole of beauty devices that are secretly, silently, killing us. From UV lights at the nail salon to asbestos in hair dryers… I have some questions.So today, we are dipping our polished little fingertips into the world of deadly beauty tools. Because it turns out some of the stuff we do to feel cute - like the innocent little gel manicure - might come with a major dark side. Buckle up for the dark history of deadly beauty tools!I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show. So here's the link if you want to check it out.

Hi friends, happy Wednesday!I always wanted to date Robbie Sinclair from Dinosaurs. Anyone else? [CRICKETS] So whenever I drive by a Sinclair gas station, you know, the one with the dinosaur logo? I always think of him. His spiky hair. That letterman jacket. I don’t care that he was a foam puppet. I was eight and I knew what I wanted. And what I wanted… was Robbie. I was so distracted by my thoughts of Robbie that I never realized Sinclair Oil had a dark secret. And the whole time it was hiding in plain sight.  Back in the 1920s, oil was the new gold. Because out of nowhere, all of a sudden, everything was running on it. Literally. Cars and airplanes were taking over. And if World War 1 taught us anything, it was that we needed an emergency stash of oil for the military… Just in case. It was like a gold rush… but with oil. And when there’s money on the table, somebody’s gonna get greedy. This is how a *huge*  government scandal happened. I’m talking corruption, shady deals, and millions of dollars stuffed into a black briefcase. Today we’re diving into one of the dirtiest scandals in U.S. history. Before Watergate, before Enron, before Bill Clinton and Monica, there was… Teapot Dome. And yes, it involves a teapot. Kind of.Welcome to the Dark History of Teapot Dome.I sometimes talk about my Good Reads in the show. So here's the link if you want to check it out.
