Unhinged -- Reddit Stories -- FULL EPISODE

Would you consider putting time stamps for each story?

The step-mom from the first story 100% just had a psychotic break. Like she isn’t lucid at all. They need to NEVER leave her alone with that baby because it could turn into a “if i can’t have the baby no one can” situation.

You should do some "lets not meet" stories. Those can get messed up.

I have a different take on the SIL who left the infant in the park. I think she was doing a drug deal in the park, got high there, lost the dog (or lied about that as a cover story), and while under the influence forgot the baby, and left/went shopping. They are SO lucky the baby wasn’t kidnapped and harmed. If I were the OP, I would’ve demanded a drug test on the spot, under threat of going to the police for abandonment.

First story - 3:50 second story - 18:53 story 3 - 29:09 4th story - 36:00 5th story - 49:00 6th story - 1:17:28 7th story - 1:38:16

I think with the sperm one, people don’t freeze their sperm or eggs usually thinking “I want my parents to have and raise my baby some day” whether or not the wife knew what his wishes were if he passed.

My grandmother sat with me for hours when my parents were in the hospital with my sister. She knew that my sister died hours before my parents got home. She tucked me into bed and waited until my parents came home. That's when they told me so I could be surrounded by my full support system. That guy stole the children's support system from them during one of the most traumatizing times in their lives. He is more than an asshole, he is a monster.

It’s literally only been 2 weeks since his passing, she could decide 5 years from now, completely out of nowhere that she wants to carry his baby and that’s her right. She literally just lost her husband I’m sure the last thing she wants right now it’s a literal constant reminder of him … give people time to grieve omg

About the kids going mute from the trauma: First off, the husband was an absolute a***, no excuses for his behavior. The kids, however, did not make this decision consciously. It's a psychological thing, likely stemming from the inability to find words for this situation (kids at this age often haven't built the vocabulary to express and name feelings and thoughts for extreme circumstances like this). These poor kids need therapy and logotherapy ASAP – the longer they don't speak the harder it will be to regain the ability. I'm not saying this as a professional, but as a person who lost their voice as a teenager due to trauma. It took me over a year to fully regain my voice (I couldn't even laugh out loud anymore or cry out when I was in pain). It's been over ten years since then and I still have some problems with certain sounds and speaking loudly for longer than half an hour is painful. I'm sending these kids and their mom all the strength I can. I hope they get all the help they need.

I HATE how she was given a lesser sentence because of her "standing within the community". She kidnapped a baby. She. Kidnapped. A. Baby. Edit: changed 'stole' to 'kidnapped'

The wife from the secret box story is literally the perfect spouse for an actual serial killer because they can tell her whatever and she’ll believe it! 😫 OPEN THE DANG BOX!!!!!

I am LIVING for the trios honestly. I need another episode with Morgan, Lauren & Alejandra AGAIN.

With the story about the husband telling the kids their dad died: it seems like he went on a power trip. He craved the power of playing god in the lives of those kids, and then turned it around and played the victim to make himself seem like a regular person who made a mistake. He was cruel. I’d be curious to see if there were other warning signs or behaviors previous this incident.

The story about the lady leaving the baby on a park bench for 2 hours is absolutely ridiculous like how do you leave a baby outside by themselves for 45 min to chase a dog and then LEAVE the park to go SHOPPING without either dog OR baby ???

Who loses a dog and then goes shopping when they can't find it? 😭

I was nine when my dad was murdered. The thing I have resented the most about the healing process was that someone outside of my direct family (ie not our mom) told us. Our first reaction was disbelief and then anger. It should have been our mom with our family. Not any other way. The guy is the biggest asshole ever IMO

The husband who told his nephews of their father’s death disrespected his sister in law’s wishes by telling her kids, and now he wants to disrespect her wishes again by attending the funeral. He hasn’t taken responsibility nor learned to be considerate of other people’s feelings

3:52 my stepmom tried to walk out of my home with “her baby” 18:56 the time my mom kidnapped our newborn 29:08 (not in depth) MIL basically kidnapped my baby 32:04 AITA for refusing to attend my brothers wedding after my SIL left my 2 month old on a park bench? I’ll update more later once I finish the ep!

I am adopted and I 100% agree with everyhting Erin said. The grandparents are incredibly selfish for wanting to bring a child into the world and put him in that position just for their grief. They should open a foundation in their son’s name if they want to honor him - what they’re trying to do is just cruel. I feel so bad for the wife.

Morgan your podcast is the only one I listen to. The structure keeps this podcast fresh and different every week. So glad I found this recently and pissed I’ve already heard them all more than once lol
