Today I'm joined by Min (@mintherose) to discuss several aspects of Israel Keyes that have developed after the publication of the two books, and things I did not get into in the first three episodes. In particular, we look at the possibility of Keyes being a huge fucking loser, separate from the whole serial killing thing. Along the way we go into underreported sex worker and Native American victims, the coverup, and new developments in the case.

Finishing up with the Keyes story, we discuss the events of his extradition and interrogation by the FBI. I talk about the US attorney prosecuting Keyes and the potential prosecutorial misconduct including bizarre treatment, handling of evidence, and "a unicorn of a deal secretly made at the highest levels of government".



Keyes began confessing to the FBI. I go through Keyes' known travels and movements. Terrorism comes into the plot. Then, Keyes commits suicide and everything is wrapped up - no further questions remaining.



(the following fourth episode will consist of a conversation about Keyes and aspects of the story I didn't get into with 'the main three episodes')

Continuing with the Keyes story, I pick up on his personal life and the circumstances of his move to Alaska. I discuss the Church of Wells, the cult which his parents and siblings joined. Then there are the bank robberies, then the kill kits and the kidnappings. I discuss the theories that Keyes was the Boca Killer, and then we get to the formal serial killings leading up to the Samantha Koenig case, which was the case for which he was caught and arrested.



I discuss the circumstances of his arrest, the police's early discoveries, and the unique route they chose to extradite him.

cw: rape, assault, etc.



This is the first episode about the serial killer Israel Keyes. I begin with the logical starting place: the Keyes family, and get into a brief history of Christian Identity in the UK and US. From there, we discuss the Kehoe family including some interesting details which are often left out of the conversation.



Then I go over Israel's early life and upbringing, his early military service, his first major relationship, and end discussing Israel's Grand Plan.



(note 1: I wrote and recorded this before I had Wendy Painting on the show and consequently realized I kept saying 'Aberrations' instead of Aberration in the Heartland of the Real, the correct title



note 2: I have learned much more about Fort Gulick since writing these episodes and I think Keyes was trained there)



Songs:

I Saw the Sign by Ace of Base

Loco by Coal Chamber (when talking about psychiatric evaluation?)

Today I'm joined by Dani and Rodolfo to discuss three Bolaño novels: the Third Reich, Distant Star, and By Night in Chile. In this episode, we discuss By Night in Chile. In this novel, Bolaño examines the fascist mindset via religion and literary criticism. Along the way, we get into how Bolaño was completely gladiopilled.

Today I'm joined by Dani and Rodolfo to discuss three Bolaño novels: the Third Reich, Distant Star, and By Night in Chile. In this episode, we discuss Distant Star. In this novel, Bolaño examines the fascist mindset via the specifically Chilean context of the 1973 coup, Pinochet's Chile, death squads, and the New Chilean poetry.



Note: although this may just be Bolaño's literary invention, there was a skywriter present during the PBSUCCESS invasion in Guatemala, though he was not a poet (or serial killer) but a used car salesman from the US.
