Listen to Season Three Now HERE

WHAT:  iHeartMedia, the No. 1 global podcast publisher according to Podtrac, and KT Studios, a Los Angeles-based documentary, scripted and podcast production company and leader in true-crime storytelling, today announced the launch of Season Three of “The Idaho Massacre.”

The latest and final season of the hit true-crime podcast delves into the chilling November 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students—brutally stabbed in an off-campus home—and unpacks the shocking developments that followed. After a months-long investigation and a nationwide manhunt, authorities charged a neighboring university’s Ph.D. student—studying criminology—with the crimes. Now, following a guilty plea, the case has taken a dramatic turn.

Season Three explores what led up to the attack, the national obsession with the case, and how a student of criminal behavior became a confessed killer. With new reporting and exclusive insights, the series examines the impact on the victims’ families, the justice system, and a community forever changed. Listen to “The Idaho Massacre” now, HERE.

WHO:  KT Studios’ Stephanie Lydecker serves as executive producer, alongside producers Alison Bengtson and Gabriel Castillo. The series spotlights both fresh and familiar voices, including Baudi Moovan, Joseph Scott Morgan, Jarrett Ferentino, Angenette Levy, and Courtney Armstrong — who also narrates the podcast.

WHEN:  Listen to Season Three of “The Idaho Massacre” today August 20, 2025. New episodes available weekly on Wednesdays.  

WHERE: “The Idaho Massacre” is distributed by iHeartPodcasts and available on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard.
