  • Ep. 235 - The Crash Pad
    Jun 24 2024
    Was Charles Manson part of a CIA mind control program? In 1969, Charles Manson and his cult shocked the world when they committed the Tate-LaBianca murders. But is that the whole story? A 2019 book by journalist Tom O'Neill offers evidence that there's a lot more to the story than we know.

    Approximately 70% of the Earth's surface is covered by oceans. Yet 95% of that area remains unexplored.

Well researched and well told

I love this podcast. The host’s delivery is soothing but not boring. The stories are so well researched and well told that even when it’s a story I know about, I really enjoy the episode.
