  • Murder by Remote Control
    Apr 28 2026
    Painkillers. Cold medicine. Morphine, if you're Mark! Something to take the edge off a headache. In 1982, people across Chicago did exactly that — and some of them never got back up. This week on Seeing Red, we’re talking about the case that changed everything: the Chicago Tylenol murders. Cyanide-laced capsules. Random victims. A killer who never had to meet the people they murdered — just quietly tamper with bottles and put them back on the shelf. But it didn’t stop there. Because once the fear was out in the world, someone else saw an opportunity. We also look at the copycat killings that followed — including a case where “random” poisonings were anything but, and innocent people died to cover up a far more personal murder. This is murder without warning, without motive you can see, and without a suspect we can name. So… how safe is that bottle in your bathroom cabinet? www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Mr Zig Zag: The Disappearance of Jo Ramsden
    Apr 21 2026
    In April 1991, 21-year-old Jo Ramsden disappeared from the Dorset town of Bridport, a place she knew well and where her routine rarely changed. When she didn’t return home, concern quickly turned into a desperate search. Witnesses reported seeing Jo with a man in a distinctive zig-zag patterned jumper — a sighting that would become central to the case. Despite strong suspicions around a known offender, no one has ever been charged with Jo’s disappearance. More than three decades later, the identity of “Mr Zig Zag” — and what really happened to Jo — remains unknown, although we have strong suspicions... www.patreon.com/seeingredpodcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.buymeacoffee.com/seeingredtw⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ www.seeingredpodcast.co.uk Theme music arranged and composed by Holly-Jane Shears: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.soundcloud.com/DeadDogInBlackBag⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

I listen to this podcast at work and travelling as a must! I love the chemistry between the pair. There stories are varied and well researched. There is humour there but not inappropriately timed like alot of podcasts. Always feels more like a discussion than a rant with neither force feeding there own opinions on you. Keep it going it can't be easy but you sound very much like you enjoy it.

Gets me through night shifts around the world.

This is hands down my favorite podcast. Mark and Bethan have such a natural, respectful chemistry—it’s a joy to listen to them bounce off each other. It’s so easy to get completely drawn into the case, and I think that’s because they know each other so well and work so seamlessly together. I’ve been listening since the very beginning, and I’m still hooked. I also love Crime Wave. Both are absolutely worth subscribing to!
