The Misery Machine
There’s a problem with True Crime. Creators idolize perpetrators, shame victims, or are completely checked out on cases while they focus on other things. However, we can’t forget there are victims who lost their lives and families who are still grieving to this day. Furthermore, many True Crime outlets spend their time focusing on themselves or rambling, instead of getting right to the facts of the case. We hear you, this is frustrating. The Misery Machine focuses on cases the media fails to give proper attention to. We want to help give those a voice that never got to have one, to begin with. We also cover aspects of cases that other podcasts might look the other way on, and the way that these cases impact their communities for generations. It’s not enough to simply cover a case, our platform must be used to make a difference.

The Story of Kayleen Lee Blaha
Monday May 22, 2023
Monday May 22, 2023
This week, Drewby and Yergy discuss the case of newborn baby, Kayleen Lee Blaha. Little Kayleen was born to meth-addicted parents and drowned in a bathtub shortly after her unplanned home birth, all because her mother, Taylor, was afraid that authorities would find drugs in the little girl's system. To add insult to injury, the baby's father, Brandon Thoma, discarded the newborn's remains as if they were garbage. His body has yet to be recovered.

The Story of Anthony Avalos
Thursday May 18, 2023
Thursday May 18, 2023
This week, Drewby and Yergy discuss the case of 10-year-old Anthony Avalos, who died at the hands of his mother and her boyfriend after years of neglect and abuse - with the final blows coming after he allegedly confessed to his mother that he liked boys. Anthony's case, much like that of Gabriel Fernandez and later Noah Cuatro's, highlighted the failings of Los Angeles County DCFS, as well as many other agencies that were assigned to advocate for the little boy.

The Story of Ethan Belcher
Monday May 08, 2023
Monday May 08, 2023
This week, Drewby and Yergy head back to Detroit to discuss the emerging case of Ethan Belcher, a little boy who was beaten, starved, and made to stay in a sewage-filled basement by his mother and her new boyfriend. But when little Ethan finally succumbs to his maltreatment, he can't even be laid to rest in a timely fashion because his own father can't be bothered to sign release papers so that his body can be sent to the funeral home for his final arrangements. This is the story of a little boy who was failed by everyone but his loving aunts.

The Story of Amora Bain Carson
Monday Apr 24, 2023
Monday Apr 24, 2023
This week, Drewby and Yergy discuss the story of Amora Bain Carson - this is the case that made us no longer want to cover kids. Amora was just a baby when she was killed by her mother's fiance, Blaine Milam. After smoking meth, Blaine convinced Amora's mother, Jessica Carson, that her daughter was possessed by a demon. She died during the botched exorcism, but after learning about what that little girl endured, the only demon here was Blaine.
