ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Erik Maund had it all. A wife and kids, a mansion by the Austin Country Club golf course, and an executive position with his family’s car dealership. But in March 2020, a message from a stranger put everything at risk. Someone knew Erik had an affair with an escort, and wanted money to keep quiet. Erik didn’t pay the money, though. He didn’t go to the cops, either. Instead, he paid Charlie Sheen’s former bodyguard and a couple of special ops-trained security contractors to confront the blackmailer. Things didn’t go according to plan.
In “The Problem with Erik,” host Katy Vine and producer Ana Worrel tell the twisted story of what came next: a perfect storm of secrets, mistaken identities, and tragic miscommunications that left two people dead.
From the Texas Monthly team behind “Tom Brown’s Body,” “Stephenville,” and "Shane and Sally" comes the latest true story of crime and justice in the Lone Star State.

“Someone is lying. And it’s hard to know who’s lying and who’s not.”
"My gut tells me he hasn't left Hemphill County. I think he's here somewhere, and I don't know if he intends to come out in the next day or two."
"Makes you want to go to the church, get on your knees and say a few words, right?
"I'm sitting there thinking, 'Oh God, I'm so scared right now.' I couldn't convince them. And so I just let them hammer me."
“It's kind of strange that your investigator calls this search, and lo and behold, right after he starts the search, a cell phone is found.”
"I'm like, 'What the heck is that?' So, I walk around some shrubs, and as I get closer I can see that it kind of looks like bone."
"The people of the town are calling us and saying, 'Do we have a monster that lives in our community?' I wish I could give them Solace."
"I'm definitely more paranoid wherever I go. I definitely watch my back more and pay attention to what's going on around me."
There have finally been a couple of developments in the case. But will they lead to the truth about what happened to Tom?
