8 True Scary JOURNALIST Horror Stories

[@LetsReadPodcast]

Hope everyone had a good holiday weekend! For those that listen to these stories over on podcast, I'll be releasing weekly over there in 2022. Same schedule here. Woo!

[@NB-ir1me]

Did you record the second story with your mouth on the left side of the mic?? It's playing a bit louder from my left airpod than the right lol

[@LetsReadPodcast]

@@NB-ir1me Maybe its your hardware. Everything's recorded lately in mono, then doubled to stereo. So it should be even

[@crazycajun8079]

Are you recording with your right hand over your left ear because my left ear hurts?

[@LetsReadPodcast]

@@crazycajun8079 Probably just cuz the Libra moon forms a trine to Jupiter in Aquarius on the final degrees of their respective signs.

[@akia1222]

@@LetsReadPodcast Hope you had a lovely holiday. thank you!! Prefer your podcast over KZbin. Also, believe you are correct, it’s a hardware issue, not your recording. earbuds STINK! Suggest anyone having issues listening get a set of quality headphones, they are worth it!

[@lonewolfnergiganos4000]

LR's videos are not just getting more scarier, they're getting more intense as well.

[@titotito3155]

Too scary actually. I almost peed myself. Should at least be some warnings. This is almost dangerous. What if I wet myself and get electrocuted?

[@domjean2267]

Was walking home listening to this and kept looking behind me

[@euroshane]

Love it

[@levinetral7046]

Keep it coming

[@-Reagan]

Yes, now that he’s finally either deep in reddit or off the reddit let’s not meet teet all together

[@darknesskingsized8996]

Pretty happy to see a true stories video that isn't just a bunch of Reddit stories. Especially from one of my favourite narrators. Keep up the good work, king.

Let's Read-- I unfortunately caught covid right before christmas so ive been isolated in a room by myself for the past 10 days. Your videos have made my isolation so much better and less lonely, im so glad you're posting so much around this time! Every time i reach the end of the video with birds chirping and you saying "hey friends" it just makes my day. Thank you for everything you do

[@shelbymartinez7248]

Man I hope you feel better soon stay up 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@KaiSaysThings]

Covid buddies! 😅😭 I hope you're feeling better, friend, and happy new year ❤️

[@Jesswithlessstress]

My husband got it right before and I have it now. We are fully vaccinated and I have the booster.. still sucks though.

[@soupw60fps49]

@@Jesswithlessstress be careful! i’m 17 and covid has robbed my highschool life from me. my grandma tested covid positive last week and she has a weak immune system….

[@corrienotcorey]

I hope you're feeling better now 🥺🥺

[@father-lock]

Dude you’re readings got my ass through a 12 hour drive man thanks

[@mokachoco89]

I'm absolutely stunned to suddenly hear about the Carlos Seabra case 😨 I never expect to hear about portuguese cases on foreign channels or podcasts (besides the Madeleine case), plus this case was so weird and has a few bizarre details that I'm surprised it's not talked about more often. Great and intense video! I'm always looking forward for your videos!

[@adrienne-w3q]

Drowned himself in a bucket of water, you don't hear that everyday

[@nekkoskrilla6750]

Did you know that the bottom of in-ground pools smell like 🍓🍓🍓? It's the blue liner actually. 😉🤫

[@ethansweet8256]

Yeah I think there was a bit of assistance in this lmao

[@JohanneCT]

When I read the title I knew Kim Wall’s case would be in there! Words cannot describe it… As a dane this is true horror in newer time 😔😔

[@miketobias1821]

Peter Madson is a evil genius. And i really really enjoy the birds 🐦 at the end

[@skyegroome223]

For someone so smart, he was incredibly dumb to think he could be the last person to see her alive and get away with such an absurd story to explain why he came back and she didn't.

[@imperialchalice]

I enjoy the exposure these kinds of stories receive. It reminds us there are still so many things we need to to help this world change.

[@annie_xo]

The Kim Wall case was so horrifying. I’m Swedish and I closely followed it from the start, it really shocked the entire country. I hope that psycho stays in prison for life. He murdered her purely because of some sick enjoyment.

[@linehedevang5028]

I really hope so too, but sadly it’s not 100% certain.. The justice system here is a joke

Perfect timing my friend 🙏☝️

[@sarajrgensen4150]

I've been waiting so long for you to cover Story 2 (7:22) since it's such a brutal murder case (and as a Dane I love to see my country represented ;)). I can die happy now.

Love you Joel! You keep me sane! Hope your New Year is happy and healthy! ❤️

[@skyegroome223]

The submarine story was truly disturbing. It must've been so terrifying for that poor woman to know that no one could hear her scream, and there was literally no way of escaping.

[@Redditaurus]

one that should've been included is the turkish guy reporting on the saudi govt's corruption who was assassinated by a terror group that was close to said govt. i believe year 2017

[@IZM3R]

Great topic.

[@baryafe]

Saved my night 😍

[@ILaFiesta97]

My Portuguese ass chilling, listening to this while I work, and being hit by the Carlos Castro story, and remembering all the news stories in Portugal when it happened. It was a huge deal here, especially due to the brutal nature of the murder, I remember how shocked evveryone was, especially due to how beloved Carlos Castro was to everyone who knew him and his career.

[@draconianoverlord7545]

Finally here for this one

[@pullovr]

Who agrees he should find more glitch in the matrix stories to read to us cuz mm those matrix stories hit different especially at night.

[@marcoamazo]

This reminds me of an incident involving a journalist that dealt with doing wartime stories. What I do remember is that I was doing a report on journalism when I was a kid and since my dad knew of the journalist and that he lived nearby, we visited him and I got what I needed for my project and mind you from what I was told, the guy was going through some trauma or something cause of the job but when I spoke with him and given I was a child at the time, to me he seemed just fine. But either a few days or weeks later, I guess the guy just snapped and after being chased by cops to a highway bridge that overlooks a hiking trail that's atleast half a mile or more below the bridge, he jumped and.....well yeah I think you can probably see where this is going, when I was told what happened some time after the incident, I was confused cause like I said, to me he seemed fine and mentally sound. Just goes to show that even people you think are fine might not be as fine as you think.

[@AlexNHitDogs]

Fuego!

[@susanbailey7]

❤❤ seriously love you're voice..... 😊

[@jennyjo798]

I'm so happy I got to hear about the pee drawer when you were live! 🤣🤣🤣

Renato and his lawyers really want him to go back to Portugal, cause the biggest life sentence here is 25 years

[@tablescissors]

Sixty-something man with shallow 21-year-old "model" lover is so often a predictable mess...but this was a doozy.

[@Roodski]

Never heard the story of Alan, but I heard the David Lane story. I knew exactly where the story was going after awhile wow

[@skaarup33]

Hi. I am from Denmark. Regarding the murder case in Denmark of Kim, Madsen got life in prison, sadly life sentence for murder is only 16 years.

[@bleachedout805]

How is that a life sentence then? That's just 16 yrs in prison. That's absurd.

[@mkv2718]

I haven’t listened yet, are these stories about scared journalists or where the journalist is the monster? Cuz I know the creepy smile of Brian Stelter haunts my dang nightmares…

I'm a journalist and here's my scary story: People questioning obvious fake stories that I spew as fact. It's terrifying to think that these people go around and actually ask questions themselves and not automatically beLIEve authority figures they don't even know

[@Thatgirl1976]

The word “cache”’is pronounced as cash. Cachet pronounced as cash-ay is a different word with a whole different meaning.

This thumbnail picture seems to be of a NRK journalist (Norwegian national tv) and I think that could come off a bit wrong

Bryce Williams was hired because WDBJ was so desperate to "diversify" that they didn't even do any background check (rather ironic). But he did save the taxpayer millions by eliminating a show trial that CNN would have loved to have discussions to make a certain race feel guilty.
