Reality Life with Kate Casey

Shannon and Eric Evangelista, and retired FBI Special Agent Ken Maxwell, discuss the two-night docuseries about a man found naked and injured behind a rural Georgia Burger King in August 2004, a man who couldn't remember his own name, and called himself "Benjaman Kyle."

What began as a mission to help Benjaman recover his identity became something far darker. Over more than a decade of reporting, filmmakers Shannon and Eric Evangelista watched the cracks in his story widen into a true crime labyrinth, three unsolved cold cases, a possible connection to a powerful Midwestern crime family, and escalating threats that ultimately put one of their own in danger.

In the summer of 2023, two Utah teenagers barricaded themselves in an upstairs bedroom and livestreamed the standoff on TikTok for fifty-four days. Ty and Brynlee Larson were refusing a family court order that would have placed them in a reunification program with their father, Brent Larson, whom they had accused of sexual and emotional abuse, allegations he has consistently denied and was never criminally charged for. Three years later, their case is the subject of a four-part Hulu and Disney+ docuseries. Kate spoke with the director Caitlin Keating to talk about how she reported the story, what the court record could and couldn't show, and why this particular custody case became a national flashpoint.

A grown man in a swimming pool, fully clothed, hiding under a deck. That's the scene that opens Anna Peele's new book, and, depending on who you ask, the moment Love Island became one of the biggest shows in the world. Author Anna Peele joins Kaate to talk about Enter the Villa: The (Unauthorized) Reality Behind Love Island, her two-year investigation into how a canceled 2005 disaster became a cultural juggernaut, what nearly a hundred interviews taught her about why the show works on us, and what it costs the people who make it.
