Imagine you were a fly on the wall at a dinner between the mafia, the CIA, and the KGB. That’s where this unprecedented story begins. A journey through the dark world of Russian intelligence where, for the first time, a professed “sex spy” tells her story. All of it.
Host Neil Strauss (Rolling Stone, The New York Times) brings listeners into the dangerous world of sexpionage, where enemies of the State are not the only victims. So too are the spies themselves, brainwashed to believe that their bodies belong to Russia and meticulously trained to become “the perfect weapons.” Who is Aliia Roza? From the creators of the hit podcast series To Live and Die in LA, this is To Die For.
Nearly 30 years ago, five women went missing in and around the city of Mons in Belgium. Their dismembered bodies would later be discovered, discarded in trash bags and strategically placed across the city. The identity of this sadistic serial killer remains unknown, but his name still sparks fear… The Butcher of Mons. From Tenderfoot TV and iHeartPodcasts, this is Le Monstre Season 2.
