In this chilling episode, Jamie and guest Host Liz dive into the disturbing case of Charles Albright, dubbed the "Eyeball Killer." A seemingly charming man with a dark obsession, Albright terrorized Dallas in the early 1990s, targeting sex workers and leaving behind a gruesome signature: surgically removing his victims' eyes with eerie precision.
Join us as we explore:
- Albright’s troubled childhood and early signs of his fixation with eyes
- The murders of Mary Pratt, Susan Peterson, and Shirley Williams
- How a hair and a witness finally brought him down
- The psychology behind his macabre calling card
Was it a twisted compulsion or a calculated act? We’ll unpack the evidence, the trial, and the unsettling legacy of a killer who saw the world through a lens of horror.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
