Author: Dave Schrader December 29, 2025 Duration: 1:18:07
From criminals who called 911 on themselves to burglars caught by their own social media posts, this episode dives into the dumbest crimes and stupidest criminals of the last 25 years. We break down real cases where bad decisions, zero planning, and jaw-dropping mistakes turned “perfect crimes” into instant arrests. This true crime comedy episode explores ridiculous criminal fails, self-snitching suspects, and crimes so stupid they practically solved themselves. Pour a glass and join us as we prove that sometimes the biggest threat to criminals… is their own stupidity.

Hosted by Dave Schrader, The Paranormal 60 Network is a daily exploration into the shadows and strange frequencies that hum just beneath the surface of our ordinary world. This isn't a single show but a curated collection of voices, each dedicated to dissecting a different corner of the mysterious. Every episode across the network’s schedule tackles topics from ghostly encounters and UAP phenomena to deep dives into folklore, unsettling true crime, and enduring historical puzzles. The approach is grounded yet open, favoring narrative and investigation over sensationalism. You might spend one day immersed in the regional myths and odd tales of New England with Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger, then join Dave Schrader the next for his focused take on the paranormal. The result is a consistently intriguing podcast feed that treats the unexplained with a seriousness that respects both the subject and the listener’s curiosity. It’s designed for those who find fascination in the unanswered question, offering a daily dose of the supernatural, the strange, and the historically hidden, all delivered through thoughtful conversation and researched storytelling. Tune in and let the familiar world seem a little less certain, and a whole lot more interesting.
