    #145 The Inland Motel Massacre

    This week we're back with Gina in the co-host seat, and we're off to Australia... Because Australia goes hard. In this case, Douglas Crabbe certainly went hard, in the sense he drive a very large Mack truck, at speed, into the side of a very small bar. And all this happened in the middle of the Australian outback, which just makes it so much worse. Along the way, we also talk about what exactly qualifies as a serious injury in Australia, young bowsers and scumbags, and finally, how to get kicked out of every roadhouse in the country. It's a fun one.

    #144 Fetal Abduction

    This week we have Gina back for an episode, and wow, did we ever pick a fun one. This episode is all about fetal abduction, and if you're not sure exactly what that is, you are very lucky. Because we are going to talk about what it is, how much it happens, and how it's done. And along the way, we'll also talk about the band Ghost, the (theoretical) most depressed pregnant woman in history, and state sponsered fetal theft. Go big or go home.

    #143 Operation Tiger

    This week, we're back to cover a war story, but it's my kind of war story. The kind where nothing goes right, there's no heroism, and hundreds end up dead. This is the story of Operation Tiger, a practice run of the D-Day landings during WW2, and this disaster damn near blew the whole plan a month before the big show. We also have a guest host covering for Gina for this episode, so please welcome Bill Selby from Crimes, Killers, Cults and Beer as we talk about bad plans, terrible communication, getting shot at, fight, flight or freeze, and why warships named after flowers is always a bad idea.

    #142 2020 Nova Scotia Massacres Part 8

    This week, we finally wrap up the 2020 Nova Scotia Massacres series, and we drop right into the story of Dany Kane, a Hell's Angels member/ hitman as well as an RCMP informant. From there, we move on to listing off all the failures of the RCMP during the massacres as well as afterwards. Finally, we finish off by giving our two cents on what happened and why people should still be pissed off.

    #141 2020 Nova Scotia Massacres Part 7

    We're back for part 7 of the 2020 Nova Scotia Massacre, because this story never ends (this was supposed to be the final episode, but we got rant-y and it became a two parter). In this episode, we cover the official investigations into the RCMP's response to the massacre and their total lack of effectiveness. From there, we spin off into some speculation about what the hell actually happened, before we get into the story of Danny Kane, a high ranking Hell's Angel member and hitman who also worked as an RCMP informant. Along the way, we also talk tactical officers appearing on your lawn, how the RCMP can tank a criminal case if they feel like it, intimidating fire halls, and flamboyant drug dealers.

    #140 2020 Nova Scotia Massacres Part 6

    This week, we're back for part six of the 2020 Nova Scotia Massacres, because this is the story that never ends. In this episode, we talk about the transcripts of 911 calls made from Portipique during the night of the massacres, as well as finally getting to the story told by Gabriel Wortman's spouse Lisa Banfield, or at least, the story we can piece together from the snippets of her statements that have been released. To finish off, we get into the structure of the RCMP and it's systemic problems, all of which were on display during the massacres. And along the way, we become very problematic with... well, you'll hear.

    #139 2020 Nova Scotia Massacres Part 5

    This week, we're back for part five of the 2020 Nova Scotia Massacres, and in this episode, we really get into the sketchy side of Gabriel Wortman's life. This includes his ties to some shady characters, his life long side quest as a smuggler, his love of guns (most of which were illegal in Canada), and his propensity to brag to anyone and everyone about his criminal activities. We also talk about his relationship with Lisa Banfield, as well as his very interesting personal life. And along the way, we also talk about Pablo Escobar's interest in New Brunswick, awkward family vacations that end in violence, and family reunions that end with even more violence.

    #138 2020 Nova Scotia Massacres Part 4

    We're back for part four of the 2020 Nova Scotia Massacre, and in this episode, we focus on some of the accounts of survivors of the attacks, and the connections between the victims and the gunman (as well as more ranting about the RCMP). Along the way, we talk about Ol Dirty Bastard, the delicate nature of going on vacation as a side guy, and how not to stand guard in an armoured car.  Mentalillnesstheatre@gmail.com https://www.facebook.com/groups/952876465260434/?ref=share https://www.patreon.com/Mentalillnesstheater https://www.instagram.com/mentalillnesstheatre_theworst?igsh=OW5hdnM2OGR5anRz https://www.tiktok.com/@mentalillnessthea?_t=8jn7VhD1bS1&_r=1 PSCats@redbubble ------------------------------------------ © Stabby Goose Productions Researched and presented by Mark and Gina Boutilier Written and edited by Mark Boutilier Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mental-illness-theatre--5055057/support.
