October 7th, 2023. Israel suffers a horrific surprise attack by the Islamist terrorist organization known as Hamas. A barbaric pogrom that cost the lives of at least 1200 Israelis. The worst massacre of the Jews since the holocaust. Israel has retaliated with a merciless bombing campaign that has cost thousands of Palestinian lives. Has Israel gone too far? Why are Tik Tokers and Gen Z kids so pro-Palestine? Why is Islam so embraced by the Communist Zoomer Left when it is a patriarchal, homophobic, and aggressively socially conservative religion? Michael and Stephanie discuss this and the state of the world in December, 2023.

Texarkana, Texas. 1946. Someone or Something is killing off random teenagers, with a crisp and cold precision, and no one has an easy reason why.

He wore a burlap sack over his head, with holes sliced out for eyes, and managed to single-handled terrorize an entire town. In Part 2 of 2, we discuss the suspects behind the murders.
