Netflix has a body count problem, and we need to talk about it.

Jack Austin and Adam Garcia dive into why 60% of Netflix's most popular content revolves around murder, violence, and true crime.

From Squid Game to endless serial killer documentaries, we explore how the streaming giant turned death into entertainment - and why millions can't stop watching.

In this episode, we uncover:

✓ Why Netflix is flooding your feed with serial killer content

✓ The disturbing psychology behind true crime addiction

✓ How violence became the default Netflix genre

✓ The real cost of "cheap" documentary content

✓ Why people watch murder docs before bed (seriously?)

✓ From medieval executions to modern streaming

✓ The death of wholesome TV entertainment

✓ How Netflix replaced quality with quantity

Highlights that killed us (not literally):

Medieval execution tourism vs. modern true crime
Why Yellowstone makes you want to be a cowboy
The Jimmy Savile documentary that's worse than horror
Jason Statham: The last bastion of mindless entertainment
Why old British comedy was actually good

From public hangings to Netflix binges, we trace humanity's eternal obsession with death as entertainment.

Plus: why Jack only watches toy car restoration videos now.

Warning: Contains discussions about violence, true crime, and the death of quality television.
