    193: Dark Conspiracies and Unsettling Truths - a DH Compilation
    Jan 14 2026

    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.

    192: The 2025 Gift Guide - A Very Dark History Holiday Special
    Dec 10 2025
    Hi, friends! Happy Wednesday!

    Listen... I know shopping for the holidays can be a total drag. You never know what to get that testy aunt who hates literally everything or the "woo woo friend" who won't shut up about their crystals. Don't worry, I got you covered.

    I would never leave you hanging, so I dug through my favorite stories from Season 4 to bring you the 2025 Dark History Gift Guide.

    Throw those boring stocking stuffers and gift cards in the fireplace. Because I got everything from baby cages to yogurt enemas.

    Sit back, pile the hot cocoa high with mini marshmallows and dim the lights because we are looking back at some of the wildest, most diabolical stories from this season to find gifts that really send a message.

  • 191: Chaos, Bloopers, and the most unhinged things Bailey said all year!

    191: Chaos, Bloopers, and the most unhinged things Bailey said all year!
    Dec 3 2025
    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.

    xo

I, like many others adore Bailey.. I thought this episode was great. Thank you for bringing the truth to light, not just history but even stuff that is current today. You're right though, you need to watch your back with those Nestle cowboys! Bailey sure has balls to expose them to a large audience who follow her.. it just makes me respect her even more!
