Decades after Ted Kaczynski was caught, society is still asking some of the same questions about him: Is Ted a genius who went astray? Or simply a madman who murdered three people in cold blood? Project Unabom takes an in-depth look back at the Unabomber saga and Ted Kaczynski's legacy from the perspective of FBI agents who worked to solve the case, his brother who turned him in, and Ted’s very own writings.

Épisode 7

Is unlistenable! Distortion/screeching

Evocative Storytelling, Gripping Suspense

Love. It. Authentic voices and intelligent narration are stellar. A brilliant addition to the existing literature plus gives the perspective of decades, looking at the possibility that the guy had a point to make, not in any way excusing the violence.

Identifying him through his writings fascinating. Wonderful moments breathe in real time. A woman in the FBI surrounded by yelling privileged men is one, conversation between brother and mother is another. Subtle details of character, bullheaded bureaucrats - this is helluva podcast.

The music intrudes a bit in first couple episodes but gets better and it’s really excellent. Only problem is waiting a week for the next one.
