There's something so sickly ironic about someone giving a lesson to kids to not look at porn then getting caught with some of the most vile, disgusting, and degenerate porn imaginable.
Sadly really common. Think about just how much motivation there is for someone who feels really guilty to project that guilt onto everyone else instead of dealing with their own shit.
@@PopeLeoXIIIFanAccount They don't. I've heard many stories of cops who've seen horrible, vile things, and they go through a whole lot of therapy to deal with those things.
@@PopeLeoXIIIFanAccount My friends uncle was a detective who worked on murder cases and also sometimes worked on cases similar to the one seen in this video. He actually ended up committing suicide due to the trauma. It’s a very intense job
Because the judges sympathize with them. Most men in power are sickos. Judges are especially powerful. Why would they want to have such a powerful position? To protect their fellow pedos. Society is ruled by mosnters
@@Melloyellow429PSN Wait, WHAT!? What about this made you think they were joking and what do you mean by saying they’re not that bad!? What have you SEEN that made you think they were not that bad!?!?!?!?M?!?!?!?
@@phillipjohnson8903 I remember reading in Dante's Inferno about Dante encountering a soul in hell who was so evil that a demon possessed his still living body.
My question is - how does one turn out like this? I have no idea how you could even conceive of such a horrific obsession. Assaulting and eating children?! That's probably the most explicitly evil thing I can think of. If this was a character in media it would be seen as cartoonish!
I'm 58 and saw the show while flipping thru channels.I remember the crappy puppets! Even as kids we had the ick factor senses before Spidey Senses were acknowledged. Most kids know when to flee. Kids being told, "He's a pastor" don't. They legit think shunning a creepy pastor is a sin.
Imagine the horror, guilt and shame the creator and cast felt after hearing this. The show you created and played in being only known for its evil, the wonderful things it could have achived all wasted. Imagine knowing you where working with, talking to like a normal human, and probably friends with a monster like that, and you didn't know a single thing. The poor children, and poor cast, I hope and pray this never happens like this again.
Tragically Joy Junction isn't the only children show featuring a cast member or creator being an evil human being. Fortunately, I think times are slowly changing but there is a long way to go.
You'd think they would have noticed something after 20+ years. I can't help but think that they had their own skeletons in the closet and decided to shut down the show and erase everything so as to not have have anyone look at them as well.
“i don’t think anyone can practice self control all by themselves, but if you ask the lord to help you, he will” i think he needed to ask for more help
@@taffysaur at no point was it established or even contended that he was responsible for a single problematic picture, you and the person behind this channel are just gossipy fucks.
It never ceases to blow my mind that when these type of people are caught. Their family/friends refuse to believe it because... they know them and would never do such things.. You don't know about it because they don't want you to.
@@stanleyhape8427 Unfortunately I think a lot of their family and friends just don't think it's a big deal, because they construct it as a sin the person needs to repent of, and not a seriously horrible action done to a person which requires real change and rebuilding trust to even begin to repair. The statements these horrible abusers give are always about them and Jesus, never about the victims.
After hearing stuff like the existence of the Holocaust and the atrocious and disgusting war crimes from the Japanese soldiers during WW2, I'm actually not very surprised to hear the existence of this kind of people.
@@BillyBobsWonderland Respectfully disagree, it’s got a lot of the same bullet points as a bad ‘pasta: 1) Creepy puppet on a kid’s show 2) Lost episodes/ the show mostly erased from existence 3) a horrible, monstrous person working on the show etc, etc… 😅
@@YourOlderBrotherChannel it really depends on how you make this “creepypasta”, it probably would wind up sounding more like an analog horror concept rather than a creepy tale of something that actually happened rather than something that’s made up to be creepy which all creepypastas are meant to be to spook whoever reads it and believes it’s real despite being fake
@@kylekrueger5368 not like anyone really knew that the show really existed during its run, very obscure and it wouldn’t make sense as a creepypasta since creepypastas are just scary tales not meant to be real and is made to make something have some form of disturbing incident that never happened
My uncle was one of the children on the show. He was only seven years old and didn’t understand the horrible acts until he was older. If anyone ever asks him about he goes quiet. The fact that Ronald Martin might have thought about eating him probably still haunts him.
This is actually so disturbing, I can't imagine what the kids on the show think now as they are older looking back at the show. Thank you for talking about stuff like this!
Pleasantly surprise Sherif Don, the creator of the show wasn’t involved with any of this as we know of, I just feel bad for him now, the show he made to teach children lessons will forever be tainted by one despicable person
What’s even worse is they do it in plain sight on social media too, not even in dms. The comments creeps leave on victims of SA’s posts (like on TikTok) are absolutely sickening.
As a victim of online p3d0fil3s, it truly is shocking how open and shameless they are, I remember the ways they talked to me about me, I truly think I almost d!3d, I was less than a month away from being picked up by one before my parents caught on.
What I find even stranger is how they even manage to find these type of chats, is not like you just type P edo chats on google and they pop out. They have their whole codes for it, but even then I ask how they get to know these codes unless they know someone else who introduces them. Is not like you can casually chat with your mates and discover these things.
the worst part is that they were talking about it in such a genuinely normal and casual way. Like down to one of them using the ":)" emoticon. like me and my friends talk the same way they were online when we talk casually abt stuff, while they were talking about EATING A REAL CHILD. Ik this might sound like a weird comment but it just felt weird seeing them chat so.... normally.
mabey murder isnt so bad afterall. demons in human skin who prey apon the most precious. this video filled me with rage cuz i remember this show and watching it on saturday mornings. i got memories atttached to it. this fucked me up man
Being able to use context clues to create sort of a "timeline" and "history" for joy junction is INSANE!! we appreciate the time you spent researching this immensely. Finally having some sort of closure towards what happened to the show is scratches an itch in my brain.
I feel like with this one it might be more of him compiling the research he's done on Joy Junction for other videos into its own video, since I've seen him talk about it in other videos.
It’s crazy, before I had kids I’d be like, “that’s sad” and wouldn’t connect much, nowadays I’ll be watching it with full intent like come on please tell me their baby is okay 😭
He obviously didn't believe anything he said on the show. Even if he was just 'role-playing' God wouldn't see it any differently than if he actually acted on it
"just a light patch fuzz of her red hair left on her head when she went in. looked so cute" this line absolutely horrified me. It is sickening to imagine a human being finding pleasure in subjecting another to such monstrous acts, much so a child.
The longer I live the more convinced I am that those who profess their "faith'" the loudest are invariably the worst charlatans, addicts, fornicators and all manner of vile monstrosities.
And the first to point at other people accusing them for being “perverts” so that they can never be accused because they’re “good religious people” and kids would be even more scared to accuse them
There are those of us who profess our faith and are not awful, but may have done some things in our past that we are moving away from and would never do again. That being said, I will agree that like in any religion or group, there a hypocrites and even actual monsters in the Christian Faith. The wolves in sheep's clothing. I do agree that those who are the loudest are in some way, shape, or form, the worst kinds of people, those at the bottom of the barrel. They either think God will forgive/protect them even tho they have not actually repented or changed their ways (I mean I can't say if He would, but it doesn't seem likely), or they don't actually believe but use the faith as a cover, a means to look good/trustworthy to get access to those who are vulnerable. It is horrible and disturbing.
Anyone can do horrible things while claiming to be Christian, or to have any belief. It says nothing about Christianity itself, and everything about the person themselves.
'' His thighs and butts cheeks will be fantastic for easter " brrroooooooooooo! i vomited my pizzaaa! what is thaaaaatttt! what kinda world is thisss.😭😭😭😭😭😭
Seeing a video on this and realizing that it is considered lost media is so surreal to me. I am old enough to remember watching this on TBN in the 90s.
My dad would always tape the Saturday morning kids block on TBN because it started at an ungodly hour. I remember watching this show, Circle Square, Superbook….. and the rest.
Same! I was practically forced to watch this, and the entire morning kids' show block on TBN every Saturday morning. I always found Marty the puppet very creepy, and unfunny. I wonder what, if any dark secrets lie beneath the wholesome facades of the other shows.
It’s cool how there's a ton of articles and even a Google description of Joy Junction. All because of you, that’s crazy I’ve watched you for a while but that’s true power to shine lights on things like this.
I saw "Joy Junction" and immediately knew what this video was going to be about. I was introduced to _Joy Junction_ via Nexpo's _Darkest Lost Media,_ and it's really chilling when you look back at the show. This man was in front of the very people he wanted to…you know…and nobody knew until later
The fact that the guy had those desires since even before the show first began airing meant there technically was no innocent before times for Joy Junction at all. In other words, from the immortal words of Cammy of Street Fighter II fame on Joy Junction, "Everything is lies... Everything is lies!!!"
I honestly feel bad for the creator, Don. He just wanted to make a wholesome show teaching kids Christian values, but now it’ll be lost media forever overshadowed by the legacy of Ron and his vile actions.
I actually found a video of a Ron & Marty segment where you can see the camera cut to Marty the puppet without Ron in shot, to mask the horrible ventriloquism.
God loves us all, and He wants to have a relationship with each and every one of us. That is why He sent His one and only Son Jesus Christ to the earth to die for our sins so that we may be made whole through Him. I love each and every one of you and God Bless.
I know a woman who was a former police officer. She worked in the department that followed online child predators. She said there are so many guys out there that want to hurt children that you just can't believe it. It's so bad that if the average person knew how many of them that there are, you would never let your kid out of the house.
I was born in 1980. My father was a strict born again Christian and I was not allowed to watch much. He considered the show Full House to be a little extreme because the little girl would talk back to the adults. So, I resorted to watching what I could, but I usually turned the TV off when Joy Junction came on. It creeped me out as a child.
Literally and globally, any current system of law is completely broken beyond repair, just watch the last video. Guy confirmed killed 4 people at sea for no reason and is known to have done it many more confirmed times and he got 13 and a warning and his associates got nothing. The word Law is a one word oxymoron, it seems. Sadly its a lesser evil, considering its the only thing keeping this shred of a species intact and not under global hell.
@@Nerval-kg9sm Those kinds of people have been proven in many studies to be impossible to reform. Possession of the material plus his confessions online should be enough for a life sentence.
What I’ve come to realize is that, most fully grown adult men who have a weird connection with children, always around them, helping them, overly friendly with them, are typically doing things they shouldn’t be doing with them, behind closed doors. Case & point, 1 of my former managers seemed to be this great uncle to his young niece. Turns out he was showing her x rated videos and touching her inappropriately for years since she was 2 years old. I think he was sentenced to almost 100 yrs smh. People are not who they pretend to be so trust and pay attention to your children, their behavior, their words, their changes. They will always tell you what’s going on most times without using words.
@@TheaterPup teach and coach, yeah. I’m talking about men that should have little to no interaction with kids because nothing they do calls for it but they always want to be around them. Going to parks, inviting the neighborhood kids over every week and they don’t have any kids of their own, it’s creepy and usually there’s something wrong with them.
While I agree, this also goes to show why I'm uncomfortable even being near kids in general because people always make these assumptions. Meanwhile, I'm genuinely a decent person and care for the little ones around me. In general, people get suspicious if you are a man and near children no matter the circumstances, unless you are their father. While again it is completely understandable, it has also perpetuated a false assumption in many people's eyes. A price to pay for their protection, is the main way I can see it.
as a genuine christain it hurts how much this stuff happens behind the scenes of innocent seeming shows, I do not like that it went so far and I hope that man pays for his cruel acts, the lord himself would not forgive his soul no matter what.
@@shearedsheep1284 . . . . really dude, look I accidently missed the ending so I did not realize the guy is dead, not a hot take to say what I did and yes I dislike killers

As a Christian, cases like this make me so mad and irritated. Why use Christianity and religion to cover up your disgusting acts?? It’s sad and shameful and extremely disturbing
Yeah I agree it gives Christianity a bad name luckily tho looking thru the comments, it looks like most agree he was a sick person and no one blames Christianity for this...
@@mktrill they aren’t directly blaming Christianity but some of them are making it seem like “oh look another p3do related case linked to Christianity. Shocker” idk how to explain it but there’s obvious tones of judgement
@@mktrillIt's a pleasant surprise, since they usually take any opportunity to bash Christians and Christianity. I really hate it when people blame Christ for the things that human beings choose to do with their free will.

I lived blocks from him, in Largo, when the story broke. I delivered janitorial supplies to the CTN Studios twice a month. I don't have kids, but I vividly recall how surprised, shocked, that parents would let their young children hang out at his trailer, enjoyimg ' pizza parties. What parent, especially now, would send their boy to the home of a single adult male? Crazy
Back in1991 as an elementary school kid, the only rule of me leaving the house was "Be back for supper." Never even asked where I was going or who I'd be with. It was a wild time. Feral kids roaming the streets oblivious to the existence of bad people.
As a employee of Goodwill some of these videos came through donations i remember being aware of some dark history with them but we were told by our district managers to box them up...do not sell ...i believe they were gotten rid of but...these things had red flags all over it
Though he died in prison he was ONLY given 20 years, it's horrific. After everything he said and had done towards children, the disgusting fantasies he had. He was only given 20 years. No one could change my mind that that man didn't deserve more
Not going to lie. When I heard "Christian children's show", I fully expected pedophiles to be involved. It was the cannibalism aspect that threw me for a loop.
When I hear "children's show dark secret" I assume pedos automatically, with or without religion. Sport coaches rape more kids than anybody else in history tbh
Wanting to eat kids is absolutely insane, the chat seems unreal because its so bizarre. To think they're people out there who think like this is disturbing to say the least

I hate how this kind of people is everywhere, like for some of them you wouldn't even suspect a thing. When I was a child I used to get frustrated that my mom wouldn't let me go play outside alone or go to other people's houses without her but now I understand and are deeply appreciative of her being this protective.
@@citruslimonia exactly, they are everywhere, my best friend lived in the apartment above us, my mother never let me sleep over at her house, she always said if she wants she can come sleep here. As a child I could never understand why my mother was so strict and wouldn’t even trust me to go sleep upstairs but now I know and I’m glad she did
@@HAIRHOLIC_1she trusts you, she does not trust the world. I am the same way with my children. My husband and I always meet the parents of their friends and if they want to hang out we make plans to meet so that we can supervise where and what our children are doing. But we never let them sleep over or go outside alone to anyone’s house even during the day. Everyone is more than welcome to hangout outside where I can see them with their friends. Also talked to them about being careful with adults going up to them. It’s one thing for a person to say, hello or good morning and be on their way not nothing them or stopping to chat with them, also if any adult goes to them to ask for any sort of help where they tell them to go with them to their car or home or away from our house is a big red flag and to not engage and run back home. They have a cell where I can see their location but I still Let them know because it’s best to have children informed. We do not post our children online at all and have asked family to respect this boundary as well. No social media for our kids till they are way older. Things like that.
I actually came across this case almost 10 years ago. Something Nick hints at but didn't directly point out is that Ronald Brown and Michael Arnett attempted to say it was just roleplay, fan fiction, or playing out fantasy in their chats, just fantasy and nothing more. Of course, they said this before they were faced with the fact that law enforcement uncovered unholy amounts of CP on their computers and as Nick points out, law enforcement has been able to use the data they collected from these two to hunt down 100's of people who are part of a CP ring and who have been planning to do much worse. God be praised that they were discovered.
I'm 46 yrs old and creepy kids shows like this were common. Made me scared of puppets like this for life. It's one of the reasons that Child's Play was such a horror hit for Gen X; Chucky was the embodiment of the crap we watched as kids. I couldn't even stand the puppets in Mister Roger's Neighborhood. Anyway, just my memories of the little bit of tv I watched as a kid. My folks were pretty much "go read a book or go outside to play" in my younger years.
I've never heard of this show but I have this dread come over me when I hear about something with puppets or clowns in it because of other whacked out shows I saw as a kid. i saw quite a few live puppet shows & I never liked them. I felt creeped out. like someone/something was tickling my spine. back then our parents didn't know that pedos gravitate to places/jobs where they have easy access to kids in a "child friendly" setting. you are right about Chucky for sure!! the other 2 things that freaked me out were 1) the clown doll in "Poltergeist". did you see that? 2) those darn Time Out Dolls who stand & face the wall like they're in time out? ooohhh... i just knew those things were really alive & would run around the house at night!!! there was an episode of "Seinfeld " once where Jerry spent the night in Kramer's apt & a ventriloquist dummy named Mr. Marbles was terrorizing Jerry. i was screaming with laughter at that episode because it was my childhood fears come to life!! 😂😂😂
I agree with you and yes, also a Gen Xer here who feels haunted by all of this garbage we were exposed to and people complain about our sarcasm and cynical view. We survived as feral kids in a world that showed it didn't care much for kids. Geeze.
I think one of the other reasons why they cleared every evidence of the show may also be to protect the kids involved. It’s possible they did it so no one tries looking for the child cast and during those days you could call the program or write letters to them (a lot of kids shows did this in the 90s especially), so they may have also had a ton of numbers and addresses from other kids.
Genuinely wish that is the sole and only reason and not them wanting to banish every single trace of existence of the show so the other perps can have their a$$ saved
I clicked on this video because I've never heard anyone talk about this show, and I haven't thought about it in ages. Reruns used to air really early in the morning, so on top of looking 'old' and being on at a time when no one else was awake it really creeped me out. Though with all that said, I feel so horribly awful for all the actors, they didn't deserve to be caught up in this legacy. And for all of the victims that were involved in such unspeakable situations, God please protect them all. I pray that if anything comes out of this, it's justice and peace for them.
I only caught one episode of this show as a kid. My family and I were traveling and staying at a hotel, and an episode with that puppet happened to be on. That night, I had one of my most memorable nightmares of my life. The puppet was floating over me in the sky, then he grew to the size of a 3 story building. The sky turned black and he said something along the lines of "Now I can get you". I woke up with a fear of puppets like him that lasted most of my pre-teen years. I always thought this puppets design was uncanny valley, creepy, heinous. Shits wild. Very wild.
I find it particularly interesting that they decided to scrub all documentation of it. Whilst Jim'll Fix It has extensive coverage. Part of me suspects the company behind this programme are equally suspicious.
I'm sure I'm not the first to point this out, but there's a lot of new information here that I didn't know about this story, but I find it to be especially creepy that this freak had admitted to liking the sight of dead boys and chose to be a ventriloquist, considering his puppet looked like a corpse of a boy.
Well, yeah, that's literally why they chose those professions, to have access to kids. It's like saying "whenever I see cases of animal abuse, the criminals work with animals every single time."
@@riseagainphoenix My point still stands, because with animal abuse, some of the stuff I've seen comes from people who don't own pets or don't own farm animals. And stuff I don't see is also weird, because I see tons of posts and pictures, I've seen them in person, of meatballs full of deadly things for animals to ingest. Wether or not those specific people work with animals is up in the air. But that's beside the point, really. Shit's disgusting regardless of your example.
Bro, just his choice of wording in the show while talking to the puppet screamed red flags itself. It's no wonder some kids found him off-putting. 💀 Always trust your gut.
If you think this is bad, Cringevision has a collection of the Ron and Marty skits (not all of them but a surprising amount considering the show is essentially lost) and watching them constantly sends up red flags but also highlights how bad his acting and writing was. There in nothing charming about the act.
@@xinpingdonohoe3978nothing, just confirmation bias. The dialogue shown in these clips of JJ is something you’d hear on any show for kids, example behavior for children wanting to be friends and have fun with their peers while being wary of bad influences. A lot of people think children express themselves towards other kids with the same cautiousness adults do other adults, so if there is an open display of platonic love they immediately assign perversion to its intent. Even the cringevision clips one commenter above mentions didn’t have any red flags. They were creepy, yes, because of that fucking puppet’s dead eyes but not because of the script.
I'm 50 &bwas raised Southern Baptist. Our church made us watch this every Sunday as part if our Sunday School class. This is what younger kids did while the kids 10 & up went to Youth Group. I had totally forgotten about this show & I think you just helped me discovered where my extreme fear of this style of puppet stems from. My family always teased me & called it an irrational fear. To them it didn't make any sense because I never really watched Howdie Doodie with my older sisters. Never watched a horror movie with one of these puppets in it. And oddest of all, Jim Henson creations have never scared me. Quite the contrary, I've always found his Gelflings etc intriguing & comforting. Even his bigger creations with a person inside the puppet never scared me. But THIS show, your clips of this show brought a flood of memories rushing back in & it's no wonder I have Complex PTSD that began as a result of my childhood in an extremely strict Christian household where blanket training begins as as soon as a baby can scoot & roll over & a "Bible Beating" was a literal punishment. Even though this brought back dark memories, thank-you for posting it. A healing journey with an ending is 1 thing, a healing journey with a definite beginning has better chance of success.
In addition to feeling bad for his victims, I especially feel bad for his costars and crew whose hard work and good memories were sullied by his atrocities.
the guy who took the pic of the 2yr old, he also did the same with a 1yr old, the mother of one of the victims said, quote "Arnett did not do anything untoward" and that "the roasting pan pictures were meant to be funny". fucking vile how there's parents out here willingly putting their kids into these situations
Not at all a defense for her, but she's probably trying to convince herself more than anyone else knowing she handed her child in the clutches of a monster.
@@mun3698to be fair my parents have a picture of me in a big pot on the stove because it’s cute. Like in this context it sounds awful but when you look at it from the innocent perspective of how weird it is seeing a person small enough to fit on the stove or something it’s different. I think the mom took it as fun while the predator was doing the predatory thing of making innocent kids stuff gross and fetishized
@richynodar I agree and also have similar photos of me and my sister when we were little in situations like that. Sitting in a pot or there’s one of me laying in the clothes dryer, etc. because we were tiny and could fit into small, odd spaces like that, and it was normal to take “funny” pictures like that back in the day 🤷♀️ I don’t think the mom thought anything bad or nefarious about it… probably thought it was funny and cute, meanwhile this fucking creep was on the side fantasizing about terrible shit
The detectives and cops have my condolences for their poor eyes. I can't and don't want to imagine the things that they have to see when investigating these monsters.
@@disorgan1zedchaos I also thought it was analog horror until I looked up Ronald William Brown and found this: www.ice.gov/news/releases/florida-puppeteer-sentenced-20-years-child-pornography-charges
I had a theory as to why the original recordings were burned; Ronald must of SA a number of the children on the show back stage. I believe they tried to cover up once the P3DO and dirty, pervert talk came to light.
When I was 9 I moved directly across the street from this man from about 2002-2010. My parents talked to him a lot and I’d occasionally go inside his house with my little sister to eat candy.. he said he had family in Sweden that would send him chocolate.. as far as I remember he never gave anyone pizza or anything but he would give out ice cream sometimes and he made us balloon animals.. but this wasn’t super often. So the mobile home park had a public pool and he would be up there A LOT.. but he’d never go in the pool. He’d just sit up there and watch.. I never thought much of it until all this happened. Idk freaks me out thinking about all this
Wow, you reminded me of a somewhat similar experience. I also grew up in a mobile home park. There was a brief period of time when some guy moved in one of the spaces right next to where my friends and our little siblings would play. He was a strange looking man. he would always be shirtless, had a huge beer belly and had long dingy hair but was completely bald on the top of his head. There were several different instances where he tried to offer us food. The disturbing thing is that the food was always somehow opened and unsealed. He offered us anything from Ice cream to donuts to chinese food. He would always make the same excuse; he would say "Do you guys want any of this '___'? Im too full and I couldn't finish it." Thankfully I was around middle school age and I knew how extremely sketch that was. We never took anything offered from him and he moved out after a while. I still look back and wondered what would have happened if us older kids weren't there to protect our younger siblings.
@@iwasinabox damn I had a similar neighbor like that, he was an old folk living alone, he was always the his windows saying hello to everyone who walked by and offered ice cream and candy to children. One day my mum learned that me and my mates took ice cream from him and got so angry. Now I understand why 😵💫
15:50 made my eyes widen even more than I could’ve imagined. I had already guessed what the secret might’ve been, but to think something *this* despicable was layered on top of it is upsetting. I don’t blame you for not wanting to read those texts.
I remember flipping through antenna tv when I was really young seeing something vaguely like this. Might be a different show with same premise. Definitely same channel tho. I remember the dummy was talking about somebody coming to town that had a gun and killed baby birds or some shit. This was back in the early 2000s
A few years ago, the girl named Sarah, maiden name Sarah Edens, who sang on the show, called into the podcast “Web Crawlers” and told them about this story! If anyone is interested the clip is under the title “Christian Cannibal Puppeteer” with the username being “Web Crawlers”
honestly, i feel bad for the shows creator. you put 20 years of effort into your baby, your child. something you believed in and enjoyed doing but all because of a action you had no control over nor did you know what was happening, no one remembers the show nor the hard work you did. its almost like you wasted 20 years for nothing in return. the show now is remembered for some sick minded individual on set more than what it was meant to be about.
As a Christian it makes me mad when people misuse Christianity to make themselves look innocent, its people like them that give Christianity a bad rep.
I wanted to come in here to say thank you for reporting so honestly on this. I watched this video without realizing how deep it went but I was a victim of one of the people caught in the subsequent arrests. I didn't even know that's how he got caught until I was looking at the time frame and realized it was the same operation. I cried, because I wasn't ready but again I'm glad to see people talking about these things. If you see something, tell someone. I mean it.
I'm so sorry you went through that. I really hope you're doing well on your path to recovery. I'm only one person, but believe me when I say that I'm always watching older men around children like a hawk. I'm constantly ready to defend innocents with my life.
@@Logicalsanewho said anything about attacking?? They are being vigilant & watching. Keeping an eye out. Aka: exactly what one should be doing. This is NOT an attack of any kind, & 2bh it’s more than a little sus you’re taking it like that. Projecting? Hopefully not.
I have to agree.yes predators can be any gender. Some younger and some older. But iv had a kidnapping attempt on my daughter by an older man who I pulled a gun on and the police got him. And a local preacher several years ago got arrested for having cp. most older guys are more or less good or atleast tolerable people but being vigilant isn’t wrong especially when it’s a trend
I really don't blame anyone for wanting to remove the show from circulation. It would be a magnet for fiends. The people who worked with the bizarre freak on the show are probably more than happy to disassociate themselves from the vile, ghoulish creature. The internet conversations between the malevolent scum are the stuff of nightmares. Great doc. Respect from Ireland.
@@Shark-B1t3It's not just Christian shows, pdf files go wherever the kids are, that's why quite a few of them become public school teachers & agents for child actors.
There are 10x more good Christian’s for every terrible Christian like in this video, statistically the group with the most cp are in the lgbt community, but regardless at the end of the day it’s terrible no matter wht group
I think the thing that hits me most is this crazy maniac, Ronald Brown, died in 2020. 2020. That was only four years ago that man was alive. I often listen to these videos not thinking about the timestamps described, until I hear a year that was particularly recent. It makes me feel sick to my stomache to think I was alive during the same time as somebody like that.. Great video as always, Nick. Love the editing and the way you tell these horrid true stories.
It’s also crazy that the show ran until 2005 and somehow managed to almost completely escape public archiving. To put into perspective how recent that was, it would have shared the air with Spongebob for six years. It outlasted Invader Zim by two years, and it would have been broadcast at the same time as Kim Possible, Fairly Odd Parents, Danny Phantom, Ben Ten and Avatar the Last Air Bender. This is crazy recent to just be so completely, and so successfully scrubbed from existence, regardless of what happened behind the scenes.
If that makes you sick please don’t spend too long thinking about how many people just like him you currently live alongside. Walking past you. How many are working with children in your neighborhood. Being kind friendly neighbors. Community pillars. Just so they can have a mask to hunt their prey and commit atrocities and unspeakable acts of violence and depravity.
I feel like it's kinda the opposite. He thought about way, way too much but he couldn't bring himself to do it. Maybe him preaching it was some kind of sick self-gratification or a verbal lashing of himself - idk if it's right to assume. In my experience it's far too common for people who are very vocal about these kinda things (purity, bad thoughts, perversion, stuff of that nature) to be secretly doing it behind closed doors
For some reason, Whittler Dan's footage was heart warming to me. He reminds me of a likeable, ridged but kind grandfather that would tell you stories about his youthful past.
I would love to see a video or documentary talking more about the show itself a La defunctland’s tv show retrospectives. It’s no Sesame Street, but it’s clear there was a lot of heart and fun put into Joy Junction by creator Don and the other cast and crew. It really is a shame it’s legacy is, understandably, so overshadowed by the actions of one awful cast member…
Even though the contents of this video make me want to remove myself from this planet, I've got to hand it to Nick once again for making such an emotionally visceral upload.
Kinda makes you feel bad for the rest of the cast of the show who probably had good intentions and had to have their legacy destroyed
I feel especially bad the creator. Spending 20 years to create something special only for it to be ruined by something he had no way of knowing.
That's what I kept thinking :(
Sad how one man's actions ruin what's otherwise a wholesome and educational show
@@archbishopofthecrusades9579 Doubly so with the puppet being just as creepy and not right as the puppet master himself.
Don’t feel bad. Religious brainwashing of children at such a young age is not a worthy thing to do.
There's something so sickly ironic about someone giving a lesson to kids to not look at porn then getting caught with some of the most vile, disgusting, and degenerate porn imaginable.
It's because a lot of religious authority comes from hypocrisy
A lot of religious warning messaging is projection.
Ironic, or unsurprisingly on brand?
Sadly really common. Think about just how much motivation there is for someone who feels really guilty to project that guilt onto everyone else instead of dealing with their own shit.

@@phillipjohnson8903 I remember reading in Dante's Inferno about Dante encountering a soul in hell who was so evil that a demon possessed his still living body.
My question is - how does one turn out like this? I have no idea how you could even conceive of such a horrific obsession. Assaulting and eating children?! That's probably the most explicitly evil thing I can think of. If this was a character in media it would be seen as cartoonish!
I'm 58 and saw the show while flipping thru channels.I remember the crappy puppets! Even as kids we had the ick factor senses before Spidey Senses were acknowledged. Most kids know when to flee. Kids being told, "He's a pastor" don't. They legit think shunning a creepy pastor is a sin.
Imagine the horror, guilt and shame the creator and cast felt after hearing this. The show you created and played in being only known for its evil, the wonderful things it could have achived all wasted. Imagine knowing you where working with, talking to like a normal human, and probably friends with a monster like that, and you didn't know a single thing. The poor children, and poor cast, I hope and pray this never happens like this again.
Tragically Joy Junction isn't the only children show featuring a cast member or creator being an evil human being. Fortunately, I think times are slowly changing but there is a long way to go.
I hope they moved on life wise to other, wholesome opportunities

You'd think they would have noticed something after 20+ years. I can't help but think that they had their own skeletons in the closet and decided to shut down the show and erase everything so as to not have have anyone look at them as well.

The government hates you. They seek your violated demise and your misery. Never ever forget this.
the fact that he was in a normal prison instead of a torture camber is RIDICULOUS
Yup
"I don't think my self control works, it must be broken."
That's a fucking understatement.
There's a difference between bad self control and actively choosing to commit the most disgusting acts ever.
“i don’t think anyone can practice self control all by themselves, but if you ask the lord to help you, he will” i think he needed to ask for more help

You don't know about it because they don't want you to.
@@stanleyhape8427 Unfortunately I think a lot of their family and friends just don't think it's a big deal, because they construct it as a sin the person needs to repent of, and not a seriously horrible action done to a person which requires real change and rebuilding trust to even begin to repair. The statements these horrible abusers give are always about them and Jesus, never about the victims.
After hearing stuff like the existence of the Holocaust and the atrocious and disgusting war crimes from the Japanese soldiers during WW2, I'm actually not very surprised to hear the existence of this kind of people.
Ventriloquists aren’t supposed to move their mouth. This should’ve been the first sign this guy was no good

2) Lost episodes/ the show mostly erased from existence
3) a horrible, monstrous person working on the show

@@YourOlderBrotherChannel it really depends on how you make this “creepypasta”, it probably would wind up sounding more like an analog horror concept rather than a creepy tale of something that actually happened rather than something that’s made up to be creepy which all creepypastas are meant to be to spook whoever reads it and believes it’s real despite being fake
@@BillyBobsWonderland Yeah but I didn't know a creepypasta can come to life like that

My uncle was one of the children on the show. He was only seven years old and didn’t understand the horrible acts until he was older. If anyone ever asks him about he goes quiet. The fact that Ronald Martin might have thought about eating him probably still haunts him.
What was the other show that came on right after this one? It was sort of a drama for teenage children.
Give him my regards,and healing vibes. I'm so sorry that happened to him.
It's a good thing, as far as we know, that none of the kids on the show were harmed by the PDF file
i’m barely halfway through the video and this sounds like a HUUUUUGGGEEE development, now i’m REALLY invested
Or couldve got eaten..??! Huh..??
This is actually so disturbing, I can't imagine what the kids on the show think now as they are older looking back at the show. Thank you for talking about stuff like this!
Hopefully they never found out. If I was on this show as a kid I'd never want to know I was anywhere close to that thing and it's puppet.
Probably happy they didn't fall victim to these sickos
Pleasantly surprise Sherif Don, the creator of the show wasn’t involved with any of this as we know of, I just feel bad for him now, the show he made to teach children lessons will forever be tainted by one despicable person
Also, the man looks incredible. Looks like Paolo Maldini. Any movies or other series you know about, where the sheriff took part in?
Don't be fooled. Clever man
The way these predators talk to each other uninhibited is truly vile. After reading through the chat logs, I was at a loss for words.
It’s the stuff that nightmares made of. 😢
What’s even worse is they do it in plain sight on social media too, not even in dms. The comments creeps leave on victims of SA’s posts (like on TikTok) are absolutely sickening.
Reminds me of some 4chan and Twitter comments I've seen, unabashedly talking about their desires to harm women and children
As a victim of online p3d0fil3s, it truly is shocking how open and shameless they are, I remember the ways they talked to me about me, I truly think I almost d!3d, I was less than a month away from being picked up by one before my parents caught on.
What I find even stranger is how they even manage to find these type of chats, is not like you just type P edo chats on google and they pop out. They have their whole codes for it, but even then I ask how they get to know these codes unless they know someone else who introduces them. Is not like you can casually chat with your mates and discover these things.
the chat logs made my stomach churn. the thought of people like this being out there fills me with a pulsing dread unlike anything else
the worst part is that they were talking about it in such a genuinely normal and casual way. Like down to one of them using the ":)" emoticon. like me and my friends talk the same way they were online when we talk casually abt stuff, while they were talking about EATING A REAL CHILD. Ik this might sound like a weird comment but it just felt weird seeing them chat so.... normally.
@@PlXOLLit’s like it’s normal to them. Like they’re wired that way.

Being able to use context clues to create sort of a "timeline" and "history" for joy junction is INSANE!! we appreciate the time you spent researching this immensely. Finally having some sort of closure towards what happened to the show is scratches an itch in my brain.
I feel like with this one it might be more of him compiling the research he's done on Joy Junction for other videos into its own video, since I've seen him talk about it in other videos.

The longer I live the more convinced I am that those who profess their "faith'" the loudest are invariably the worst charlatans, addicts, fornicators and all manner of vile monstrosities.
And the first to point at other people accusing them for being “perverts” so that they can never be accused because they’re “good religious people” and kids would be even more scared to accuse them
There are those of us who profess our faith and are not awful, but may have done some things in our past that we are moving away from and would never do again. That being said, I will agree that like in any religion or group, there a hypocrites and even actual monsters in the Christian Faith. The wolves in sheep's clothing.
I do agree that those who are the loudest are in some way, shape, or form, the worst kinds of people, those at the bottom of the barrel. They either think God will forgive/protect them even tho they have not actually repented or changed their ways (I mean I can't say if He would, but it doesn't seem likely), or they don't actually believe but use the faith as a cover, a means to look good/trustworthy to get access to those who are vulnerable. It is horrible and disturbing.
don't turn this into a faith thing, that's extremely disingenuous
Anyone can do horrible things while claiming to be Christian, or to have any belief.
It says nothing about Christianity itself, and everything about the person themselves.

Seeing a video on this and realizing that it is considered lost media is so surreal to me. I am old enough to remember watching this on TBN in the 90s.
Same!
I watched it a few times in the 80s.
Same! I watched it in the '90's too! Always wondered what happened to it when it disappeared...
My dad would always tape the Saturday morning kids block on TBN because it started at an ungodly hour. I remember watching this show, Circle Square, Superbook….. and the rest.
Same! I was practically forced to watch this, and the entire morning kids' show block on TBN every Saturday morning. I always found Marty the puppet very creepy, and unfunny. I wonder what, if any dark secrets lie beneath the wholesome facades of the other shows.
18:23 he took photos of ACTUAL CHILDREN dying slowly man I think that’s enough evidence
It’s cool how there's a ton of articles and even a Google description of Joy Junction. All because of you, that’s crazy I’ve watched you for a while but that’s true power to shine lights on things like this.
I saw "Joy Junction" and immediately knew what this video was going to be about.
I was introduced to _Joy Junction_ via Nexpo's _Darkest Lost Media,_ and it's really chilling when you look back at the show. This man was in front of the very people he wanted to…you know…and nobody knew until later
The fact that the guy had those desires since even before the show first began airing meant there technically was no innocent before times for Joy Junction at all. In other words, from the immortal words of Cammy of Street Fighter II fame on Joy Junction, "Everything is lies... Everything is lies!!!"
I honestly feel bad for the creator, Don. He just wanted to make a wholesome show teaching kids Christian values, but now it’ll be lost media forever overshadowed by the legacy of Ron and his vile actions.
@@Brianna-eo8nu I second that notion. Really, if that ventriloquist wasn't around, it might actually want to be remembered by comparison.

He was a bad puppeteer from the start. His lips were moving.
I actually found a video of a Ron & Marty segment where you can see the camera cut to Marty the puppet without Ron in shot, to mask the horrible ventriloquism.
You look like a broad. Marty is more manly.
I think he only took up the gig so he would have easy access to kids, he never truly had passion for ventriloquism
That would make him a bad ventriloquist. Although it doesn’t seem like he’s a great puppeteer either.
Lmaoooo
I am stunned. I physically gagged while reading the chat. There are people like this amongst us everywhere and we don’t know it!
God loves us all, and He wants to have a relationship with each and every one of us. That is why He sent His one and only Son Jesus Christ to the earth to die for our sins so that we may be made whole through Him. I love each and every one of you and God Bless.
I know a woman who was a former police officer. She worked in the department that followed online child predators. She said there are so many guys out there that want to hurt children that you just can't believe it.

@@Nerval-kg9sm Those kinds of people have been proven in many studies to be impossible to reform. Possession of the material plus his confessions online should be enough for a life sentence.
What I’ve come to realize is that, most fully grown adult men who have a weird connection with children, always around them, helping them, overly friendly with them, are typically doing things they shouldn’t be doing with them, behind closed doors. Case & point, 1 of my former managers seemed to be this great uncle to his young niece. Turns out he was showing her x rated videos and touching her inappropriately for years since she was 2 years old. I think he was sentenced to almost 100 yrs smh. People are not who they pretend to be so trust and pay attention to your children, their behavior, their words, their changes. They will always tell you what’s going on most times without using words.
Most adult men who teach or coach children are perfectly safe. Probably is the dangerous ones blend in.
@@TheaterPup teach and coach, yeah. I’m talking about men that should have little to no interaction with kids because nothing they do calls for it but they always want to be around them. Going to parks, inviting the neighborhood kids over every week and they don’t have any kids of their own, it’s creepy and usually there’s something wrong with them.
While I agree, this also goes to show why I'm uncomfortable even being near kids in general because people always make these assumptions. Meanwhile, I'm genuinely a decent person and care for the little ones around me. In general, people get suspicious if you are a man and near children no matter the circumstances, unless you are their father. While again it is completely understandable, it has also perpetuated a false assumption in many people's eyes. A price to pay for their protection, is the main way I can see it.

@@citruslimonia exactly, they are everywhere, my best friend lived in the apartment above us, my mother never let me sleep over at her house, she always said if she wants she can come sleep here. As a child I could never understand why my mother was so strict and wouldn’t even trust me to go sleep upstairs but now I know and I’m glad she did
@@HAIRHOLIC_1she trusts you, she does not trust the world.
I am the same way with my children. My husband and I always meet the parents of their friends and if they want to hang out we make plans to meet so that we can supervise where and what our children are doing. But we never let them sleep over or go outside alone to anyone’s house even during the day. Everyone is more than welcome to hangout outside where I can see them with their friends.
Also talked to them about being careful with adults going up to them. It’s one thing for a person to say, hello or good morning and be on their way not nothing them or stopping to chat with them, also if any adult goes to them to ask for any sort of help where they tell them to go with them to their car or home or away from our house is a big red flag and to not engage and run back home. They have a cell where I can see their location but I still
Let them know because it’s best to have children informed.
We do not post our children online at all and have asked family to respect this boundary as well. No social media for our kids till they are way older. Things like that.
I actually came across this case almost 10 years ago. Something Nick hints at but didn't directly point out is that Ronald Brown and Michael Arnett attempted to say it was just roleplay, fan fiction, or playing out fantasy in their chats, just fantasy and nothing more. Of course, they said this before they were faced with the fact that law enforcement uncovered unholy amounts of CP on their computers and as Nick points out, law enforcement has been able to use the data they collected from these two to hunt down 100's of people who are part of a CP ring and who have been planning to do much worse. God be praised that they were discovered.
I'm 46 yrs old and creepy kids shows like this were common. Made me scared of puppets like this for life. It's one of the reasons that Child's Play was such a horror hit for Gen X; Chucky was the embodiment of the crap we watched as kids.
I couldn't even stand the puppets in Mister Roger's Neighborhood.
Anyway, just my memories of the little bit of tv I watched as a kid. My folks were pretty much "go read a book or go outside to play" in my younger years.
Wasn't there a companion show one right after this one? It was sort of soap opera for the teen agers.
I've never heard of this show but I have this dread come over me when I hear about something with puppets or clowns in it because of other whacked out shows I saw as a kid. i saw quite a few live puppet shows & I never liked them. I felt creeped out. like someone/something was tickling my spine. back then our parents didn't know that pedos gravitate to places/jobs where they have easy access to kids in a "child friendly" setting. you are right about Chucky for sure!! the other 2 things that freaked me out were 1) the clown doll in "Poltergeist". did you see that? 2) those darn Time Out Dolls who stand & face the wall like they're in time out? ooohhh... i just knew those things were really alive & would run around the house at night!!! there was an episode of "Seinfeld " once where Jerry spent the night in Kramer's apt & a ventriloquist dummy named Mr. Marbles was terrorizing Jerry. i was screaming with laughter at that episode because it was my childhood fears come to life!! 😂😂😂
I ALWAYS found Mr. Rogers CREEPY!!!!!!!!
My buddy my buddy my buddy and meeeeee Coming to get you toonyyyyyght!!!!!!!
I agree with you and yes, also a Gen Xer here who feels haunted by all of this garbage we were exposed to and people complain about our sarcasm and cynical view. We survived as feral kids in a world that showed it didn't care much for kids. Geeze.
I think one of the other reasons why they cleared every evidence of the show may also be to protect the kids involved. It’s possible they did it so no one tries looking for the child cast and during those days you could call the program or write letters to them (a lot of kids shows did this in the 90s especially), so they may have also had a ton of numbers and addresses from other kids.
Evidence is never scrubbed to protect victims. It's always scrubbed to protect perpertrators.
Genuinely wish that is the sole and only reason and not them wanting to
banish every single trace of existence of the show so the other perps can have their a$$ saved
Ooooor to protect themselves ... what a shame I would kick them in their crown jewels like we say in europe

I clicked on this video because I've never heard anyone talk about this show, and I haven't thought about it in ages. Reruns used to air really early in the morning, so on top of looking 'old' and being on at a time when no one else was awake it really creeped me out. Though with all that said, I feel so horribly awful for all the actors, they didn't deserve to be caught up in this legacy. And for all of the victims that were involved in such unspeakable situations, God please protect them all. I pray that if anything comes out of this, it's justice and peace for them.

I only caught one episode of this show as a kid. My family and I were traveling and staying at a hotel, and an episode with that puppet happened to be on.
That night, I had one of my most memorable nightmares of my life. The puppet was floating over me in the sky, then he grew to the size of a 3 story building. The sky turned black and he said something along the lines of "Now I can get you".
I woke up with a fear of puppets like him that lasted most of my pre-teen years. I always thought this puppets design was uncanny valley, creepy, heinous.
Shits wild. Very wild.
Wow. That is incredibly terrifying. And the fact that u picked up on how awful that doll was. So insane.

I’m glad I was too young to remember this show in detail til now, mom or church school had us watching this
If you think this is bad, Cringevision has a collection of the Ron and Marty skits (not all of them but a surprising amount considering the show is essentially lost) and watching them constantly sends up red flags but also highlights how bad his acting and writing was. There in nothing charming about the act.
Which wording? I'm confused.
@@xinpingdonohoe3978nothing, just confirmation bias. The dialogue shown in these clips of JJ is something you’d hear on any show for kids, example behavior for children wanting to be friends and have fun with their peers while being wary of bad influences. A lot of people think children express themselves towards other kids with the same cautiousness adults do other adults, so if there is an open display of platonic love they immediately assign perversion to its intent. Even the cringevision clips one commenter above mentions didn’t have any red flags. They were creepy, yes, because of that fucking puppet’s dead eyes but not because of the script.
I'm 50 &bwas raised Southern Baptist. Our church made us watch this every Sunday as part if our Sunday School class. This is what younger kids did while the kids 10 & up went to Youth Group.
I had totally forgotten about this show & I think you just helped me discovered where my extreme fear of this style of puppet stems from.
My family always teased me & called it an irrational fear. To them it didn't make any sense because I never really watched Howdie Doodie with my older sisters. Never watched a horror movie with one of these puppets in it.
And oddest of all, Jim Henson creations have never scared me. Quite the contrary, I've always found his Gelflings etc intriguing & comforting. Even his bigger creations with a person inside the puppet never scared me.
But THIS show, your clips of this show brought a flood of memories rushing back in & it's no wonder I have Complex PTSD that began as a result of my childhood in an extremely strict Christian household where blanket training begins as as soon as a baby can scoot & roll over & a "Bible Beating" was a literal punishment.
Even though this brought back dark memories, thank-you for posting it. A healing journey with an ending is 1 thing, a healing journey with a definite beginning has better chance of success.
It’s very disturbing that Ron was using Marty to hide his atrocious acts and people wouldn’t think anything of it because of ventriloquism

This story disturbed me in a way no other has. Literally sick to my stomach.
When I was 9 I moved directly across the street from this man from about 2002-2010. My parents talked to him a lot and I’d occasionally go inside his house with my little sister to eat candy.. he said he had family in Sweden that would send him chocolate..
as far as I remember he never gave anyone pizza or anything but he would give out ice cream sometimes and he made us balloon animals.. but this wasn’t super often. So the mobile home park had a public pool and he would be up there A LOT.. but he’d never go in the pool. He’d just sit up there and watch.. I never thought much of it until all this happened. Idk freaks me out thinking about all this
"He'd just sit up there and watch."
Gah, I had a neighbor who was also convicted do that shit and it was creepy as fuck.
Righttt
Wow, you reminded me of a somewhat similar experience.
I also grew up in a mobile home park. There was a brief period of time when some guy moved in one of the spaces right next to where my friends and our little siblings would play. He was a strange looking man. he would always be shirtless, had a huge beer belly and had long dingy hair but was completely bald on the top of his head.
There were several different instances where he tried to offer us food. The disturbing thing is that the food was always somehow opened and unsealed. He offered us anything from Ice cream to donuts to chinese food. He would always make the same excuse; he would say "Do you guys want any of this '___'? Im too full and I couldn't finish it."
Thankfully I was around middle school age and I knew how extremely sketch that was. We never took anything offered from him and he moved out after a while.
I still look back and wondered what would have happened if us older kids weren't there to protect our younger siblings.
@@iwasinabox damn I had a similar neighbor like that, he was an old folk living alone, he was always the his windows saying hello to everyone who walked by and offered ice cream and candy to children.

It’s also crazy that the show ran until 2005 and somehow managed to almost completely escape public archiving.
To put into perspective how recent that was, it would have shared the air with Spongebob for six years. It outlasted Invader Zim by two years, and it would have been broadcast at the same time as Kim Possible, Fairly Odd Parents, Danny Phantom, Ben Ten and Avatar the Last Air Bender.
