This week on The Creep Dive , the gals dive headfirst into a toe-curling tale of body parts for sale, internet feuds between right-wing queens Jessica Reed Kraus and Candace Owens, and the inspiring, suspiciously spry story of Fauja Singh — the man allegedly running marathons well past 100. We also ponder: is Denise Welch missing in a hot air balloon over France? (No.) From wet specimens to walkers, it’s a glorious mess, as always. 👻 Support us on Patreon : patreon.com/thecreepdive 🎟️ Come see us live at The Laughter Lounge, Dublin – April 18th : laughterlounge.com Hosted on Acast.

The Billionaire, the Prayer App, and the Firing Squad Execution 1:16:23

This week, we take a ride through the shadowy intersection of big tech, religion, and power, featuring none other than Peter Thiel, the billionaire with an obsession—funding ultra-conservative Christian movements while being an openly gay man. We unravel his role in Hallow, the world’s most successful Catholic prayer app, and ask: is this a genuine faith movement or just another billionaire-backed tool for control? Then, things get dark as we break down the return of the firing squad in the US. The first execution by firing squad in 15 years just took place, and we dive into why it happened, how it went down, and what it says about the state of justice today. And finally, we get tangled up in the bizarre world of Hillsong, the mega-church-turned-scandal-factory, complete with celebrity pastors, cult-like control, and enough hypocrisy to make your head spin. Billionaires, executions, cults—get in into yah. .... Want to hear this episode completely ad-free and get an extra bonus episode every single week?

Buckle up, creeps, because this episode is a rollercoaster of madness and tragedy. First, Casey Anthony is back—yes, that Casey Anthony—resurfacing on social media, and the internet has thoughts. We dive into her bizarre return, the outrage, and why the world still believes she got away with murder. Then, we uncover the Mormon armpit chlamydia epidemic. That’s right—bagpiping, soaking, and the truly unhinged len gths people will go to in order to technically stay “pure.” We also revisit one of the pettiest, most unhinged love triangles ever—the London Zoo Christmas Party Brawl. A llama keeper, a meerkat expert, and a monkey handler walk into a party… and by the end of the night, someone is swinging a wine glass to the face. And in a sharp turn into the tragic, we discuss the Aberfan disaster, one of the most devastating and preventable tragedies in UK history. How did a 111-foot coal waste tip collapse, burying an entire school and wiping out a generation of children? And how did the government force survivors to pay for the cleanup in you pop ...
