3 MAY. 2024 · What a Creep Season 24, Episode 10 The True Crime Story Behind “The Natural” The Eddie Waitkus shooting is a notable event in baseball history. It occurred in 1949 when the popular first baseman (and WW2 hero) for the Philadelphia Phillies was shot by an obsessed fan named Ruth Steinhagen. The incident was a shocking reminder of the dangers of celebrity obsession. Also, it inspired Bernard Malamud's novel The Natural, which was later adapted into a popular film starring Robert Redford (who played a 19-year-old when he was 47 at the time!)

26 ABR. 2024 · What a Creep Season 24, Episode 9 Karl Lagerfeld Karl Lagerfeld was a fashion designer best known for heading Chanel for over 30 years. He was one of the first designers to channel their fashion leadership into becoming a public figure. He developed this image as “the Kaiser,” a too-cool snob with dark sunglasses, fingerless gloves, and a ponytail that got him almost as much attention as his designs for Chanel. Sure, he was a fashion icon, but our man Karl was also fatphobic, racist, and misogynistic. What a creep.

19 ABR. 2024 · What a Creep Season 24, Episode 8 The Creepy History of the “Desperate Housewives” "https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0410975/" was a famous American TV series from 2004 to 2012 set in Wisteria Lane, a seemingly perfect suburb. The show followed the lives of women and their families, uncovering secrets, scandals, and mysteries. The main characters included Susan Mayer, Lynette Scavo, Bree Van de Kamp, Gabrielle Solis, and Edie Britt, each with their unique romance, betrayal, and drama storylines.

5 ABR. 2024 · What a Creep Season 24, Episode 7 Diane Downs Diane Downs gained infamy for the 1983 shooting of her three children, one of whom died, in Springfield, Oregon. The case became highly publicized due to the shocking nature of the crime and the subsequent investigation and trial. On May 19, 1983, Diane Downs drove her children to a rural road and shot them at close range. She then drove VERY SLOWLY  to a hospital, claiming that a “bushy-haired stranger” had shot her and her children during a carjacking attempt. However, inconsistencies in her story and evidence led investigators to suspect her involvement in the crime. Anne Rule’s book https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098352/ was turned into a TV movie starring Farah Fawcett and Ryan O’Neal that garnered huge ratings.

29 MAR. 2024 · What a Creep Season 24, Episode 6 Kirk Cameron & Candace Cameron Bure Kirk Cameron starred in the ’80s sitcom “Growing Pains,” which made him a teenage heartthrob. He was never our guy. We’re Jason Bateman and Michael J. Fox girlies. His sister Candace Cameron Brue starred in “Full House,” TV movies, and more recently “Fuller House” on Netflix. At some point in their lives, they got on the Evangelical Christian train, which they then started using as an excuse for their homophobia. They love to talk about how god provides salvation, but they use God for deflection. Let’s talk about it.

15 MAR. 2024 · What a Creep“Coyote V. Acme Controversy” Season 24, Episode 4 In February 1980, The New Yorker magazine published a satire called https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1990/02/26/coyote-v-acmeThe story was about Wile E. Coyote suing Acme, the company that supplied him with the equipment he used to try and catch the Road Runner, for all his injuries over the years.  In 1987, the success of "https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096438/" led to the combination of animation and live actors in this story. However, it wasn't until the 2020s that Warner Brothers hired writer Samy Burch and director Dave Green to bring the project to life. The film was completed in 2022, but now the parent company refuses to release it and instead writes it off for tax purposes.  Despite considering other outlets, the $75 million price tag makes it unlikely that Warner Brothers will negotiate another deal. The film's controversy-causing release has caused a media storm. For once, we have no trigger warnings!

Basically, its whole schtick is adding hateful commentary to content created by left-wing and LGBTQ+ people on social media platforms. Libs of TikTok has been blamed for sparking bomb threats, property damage, shooting threats, written and verbal harassment, and other forms of violence against individuals, hospitals, and schools across the country.
