Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
This is Josh Zemon hosted the new six part series
Hunting the Long Island serial Killer from Tenderfoot TV and
iHeart Podcasts. If you're listening to this message, it's because
you're either a friend of the show or because somehow
you've discovered this podcast and decided to give it a listen.
Either way, I'm glad you're here. This podcast will follow

(00:24):
my hunt for a killer one who terrorized a community
for decades, the Long Island serial Killer aka Lisk. I'm
a documentary filmmaker, and in twenty sixteen, I released an
investigative series where I came close to catching Lisk, closer
than anyone had been before. Looking back, there's so much

(00:46):
more to this story than I originally thought, and so
many questions that I now have answers to. I want
to share an exclusive clip of the podcast, and while
you're here, please follow the show weeks. We'll be releasing
the official trailer, followed by the series launch on November seventeenth.

(01:07):
Check out this clip, and while you listen, drop us
a rating and review. You're listening to It's to a
Tenderfoot TV podcast. When Rachel and I first started filming
in the summer of twenty fourteen. The official investigation was

(01:29):
only three years old, but for some reason, the Suffolk
County Police Department wouldn't even talk about it, and they
rarely spoke to the families. So we spent two years
conducting our own investigation trying to find out who Lisk
might be. As it turns out, we were far closer
to catching Lisk than we thought, and those same clues

(01:52):
that led police to cracking this case, we're right there,
all a long, long, buried in our footage. He was
just this beast of a man, like six foot nine,
three hundred pounds, white black, Hispanic white dude, fifty years old. Monster.

(02:12):
There was only like a couple weeks right before she
disappeared that guy was there. On this podcast, we're going
to reveal those clues as we sift through hundreds of
hours of old footage from our show, interviews, phone calls,
doorstep confrontations. Yes you're looking for you, But we're also

(02:34):
digging back in to confront an even harder question. Could
Lisk have been caught sooner? And finally what so many
of us have been waiting for for over two decades.
The upcoming trial of Rex Hwerman, the alleged Long Island
serial killer. The theory of our case is this defendant

(02:56):
meticulously and methodically hunted down and murdered seven women. Could
this man have been caught as far back as twenty ten?
God forbid? We find more victims that could still be
alive if they had made the arrest back then. And
while we might think we know who Lisk is, there's
still so many questions that this trial might answer, and

(03:17):
we'll be there every step of the way until finally
we get what may be the most important answer of
them all, the verdict. But until then, all we can
tell you is what we've uncovered, and it's a story
that starts back in the winter of twenty ten, exactly
fifteen years ago, on our remote stretch of highway in

(03:40):
Long Island, in an area known as Gilgo Beach. All rights, wrongs,
beach breaking news, and all duty cop walking. His dogs
doubles on a woman's dead body, his tail started waiting,
and I saw the skeletal remains of the body. From
Tenderfoot TV and iHeart podcasts, Hunting the Long Island Serial

(04:04):
Killer will be released on November seventeenth. Thanks for listening.
