Cross-Examination | The Story of the Waffle Stomper Shoe

Radio Vérité Presents: The Spoon River Gothic Podcast - True Crime Narratives.

Think, feel, understand the sideways world around you. We go where the others don’t. We dive deeper!

Seasonal | Long Form | Weekly

Written and hosted by Cory Zimmerman, our flagship series, THE SPOON RIVER GOTHIC PODCAST, is a growing collection of true crime narratives revealing tales of romance, greed, obsession, murder, and terror.

We seek only those stories that cry out for justice--those untold, buried, and forsaken tales of madness, and those silenced voices deserving to be heard.

Along our quest, sensationalism is not an end nor a means, rather, we embrace an unrelinquishing mission to humanize crimes which, all too often, remain untangibly abstract.

We seek those critical elements that may allow us as individuals to relate and, thus, as a whole, better comprehend the tragedy that is this sideways world; and to better appreciate the darkness, upon which, light may shine.
