What is Seriously Sus?
Seriously Sus is a weekly podcast and video series hosted by Nanette and Miranda, two besties doing what we do best: exposing shadiness with a side-eye. The show digs into the stories, claims, and chao sand cultural moments that make people pause and ask, “Wait… is that actually true?”
From true crime cases and questionable media narratives to viral controversies and full‑blown internet chaos, (and maybe even the occasional ghost story because, honestly, we just like spooky stuff), each episode blends humor, skepticism, and the tea. This is real talk, honest opinions, humor with teeth but handled with care. We ask the uncomfortable questions, call out suspicious behavior and laugh so we don’t scream. If it feels suspicious, shady or just straight up wrong, we are going to side-eye it!
New episodes drop weekly and are available on YouTube, Spotify, and major podcast platforms.

The internet didn't invent Main Character Syndrome—it rewarded it.
In this episode of Seriously Sus, Nanette and Miranda explore the rise of influencer entitlement, gym "main characters," public nuisance creators, prank culture, livestream chaos, and the growing number of people who seem convinced the rest of humanity exists solely to support their content.
Why do some influencers expect free products, special treatment, and exceptions to the rules?
Why are strangers increasingly treated like props?
Why does social media reward behavior that would normally get someone kicked out of a restaurant, a gym, or a family gathering?
And perhaps most importantly:
Who told these people they were special?

Benjamin Franklin And the House of 1000 Corpses
Did Benjamin Franklin have a basement full of human skeletons?
It sounds like internet conspiracy clickbait… except the bones were real.
When renovations uncovered more than 1,200 human bone fragments beneath Benjamin Franklin's former London home, historians were forced to answer a very uncomfortable question: Why were they there?
In this episode of Seriously Sus, Nanette and Miranda separate historical fact from centuries of rumor as they investigate one of America's most fascinating Founding Fathers. From illegal anatomy schools operating beneath Franklin's residence to his friendship with the infamous Hellfire Club, family betrayals during the American Revolution, and the carefully crafted image that turned him into one of history's greatest personal brands, Franklin's life was far stranger than most history books ever admit.
Was he secretly involved with the Hellfire Club? Did he know there were human cadavers being dissected beneath his home? How much of the Benjamin Franklin we think we know was brilliant self-promotion?
Join us as we dig through the evidence, debunk the myths, and ask whether Benjamin Franklin was simply an Enlightenment genius… or just a little bit seriously sus.
And a huge congrats to Miranda for writing and editing her first episode!!!
