Bad Mumma - Trailer (Mini Series)
Welcome to the latest podcast series from Shenanigans, Bad Mumma. This podcast series dives into the chilling true stories of maternal monsters who harm their children. From stories of newborns thrown away like trash, to mothers who don’t want parenting to get in the way of a career or a holiday. To stories of women who hold their children captive to discipline them.

Dark Beauty - Episode 10: When Women Harm
The Dark Beauty Series ends here – and it’s the most important episode yet. In this feature-length finale, clinical psychologist Dr Fiona M. Girkin connects the dots across nine real cases of women who deceived, manipulated, abused, and even killed. From Elizabeth Holmes and Anna Delvey to Erin Patterson, Melissa Caddick, Belle Gibson, Sherri Papini, Istarlin Hassan, Jordan Worth, and Sarah Rigby – we uncover the psychological patterns that tie them together through the lens of the Dark Tetrad (narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and sadism).

Dark Beauty - Episode 9: Jordan
In this powerful episode, we highlight the landmark UK case of Alex Skeel, a 21-year-old father from Bedfordshire who endured nine months of horrific abuse from his girlfriend Jordan Worth—the first woman convicted of coercive control. Meeting as teenagers in 2012, their relationship produced two daughters but descended into isolation, starvation, and brutal violence: Worth stabbed Alex with knives (severing tendons), hammered his skull, scalded him with boiling water (causing severe burns), and withheld food until he lost 56 kilograms, leaving him ten days from death.
