As we approach Ash Wednesday and the 2026 Lenten season, Makoto Fujimura's vision of slow art, hospitality, and kenotic creativity invites us to resist the speed, fear, and fragmentation of this cultural moment by learning again how to pay attention, to rest, and to become people capable of holding one another with care even amid grief, violence, and uncertainty. In this conversation, fine artist Makoto Fujimura reflects on art, trauma, hospitality, and the slow practices that help us remain human in fractured times. "I wanted this book to serve as a portal… to recognize something as maybe ordinary or as extraordinary as holding your granddaughter." Together with Mark Labberton, Fujimura reflects on art as generativity, kenosis, and the healing practice of attention. Together they discuss slow art, Ground Zero and trauma, Japanese aesthetics and hospitality, dandelions and attention, Sabbath rest, and self-emptying love. They explore how making art helps people remain human amid violence, polarization, and technological acceleration. Episode Highlights "I wanted this book to serve as a portal… to recognize something as maybe ordinary or as extraordinary as holding your granddaughter." "We are not just making… we are being made." "God is indeed the host." "Art is… a way for us to navigate our complex times." "It is okay for me to give my life away." About Makoto Fujimura Makoto Fujimura is a contemporary artist, writer, and cultural thinker known for "slow art" rooted in Japanese Nihonga painting traditions. His work explores generativity, culture care, theology of making, and the relationship between beauty and suffering. Having lived and worked near Ground Zero after 9/11, his artistic practice reflects themes of trauma, hospitality, and new creation. He is the author of Art Is: A Journey into the Light and other books on art, faith, and culture.

In 1984, George Orwell wrote, “Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.”The New York Times is no longer free to say what is true. They are compelled to lie either by their newfound fundamentalism, fear of their readers and subscribers, or pressure from the strident activists who police thought and speech in our New Woke Order. We can't let them get away with it. Not this time. The SuspectIt looks like a real headline - a search for the truth. So far, so good. But a few paragraphs in, and it's clear that the New York Times has crossed the Rubicon:On Tuesday afternoon, Jesse Van Rootselaar, 18, grabbed two firearms from her home and, the authorities in British Columbia said, killed her mother and 11-year-old brother. Then she traveled a mile to the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and killed five students and one educator before turning her weapon on herself.The mass shooting, which also left two children injured with gunshot wounds, has sent shock waves across Canada, where such violence is rare, and has devastated the small rural community of 2,400 people.Her home? She traveled? Before turning her weapon on herself? Was the shooter a woman? If so, wouldn't that be the lead? After all, it's rare for any woman to be pulled into violence online, let alone go on a shooting spree. Sure, there was Audrey Hale out in Tennessee, but according to the Times, she wasn't even a SHE. Back in 2023, they awkwardly opted out of using any pronoun to describe Hale, adding this to their story:But by 2025, when Hale was no longer the only one, they made the decision to use preferred pronouns, yes, even in the wake of a horrific shooting like the one in Minneapolis that, as with Audrey Hale, massacred children.Using that logic, we'd have no choice but to conclude that two women had committed these acts of violence in Minneapolis and now, in Canada, while one male went on a shooting spree in Tennessee. Make it make sense, New York Times. What we're really talking about here is three transgender shooters who targeted children. Robin Westman himself was obsessed with them:If the latest school shooter in Tumblr Ridge targeted and killed children and was also transgender, you'd think that there might be something, anything that the Times could offer its readers instead of lying that the shooter was female. No, the shooter was male. And it matters. The truth matters. Biological reality matters especially when we're talking about criminal profiling.It wasn't just the New York Times, either, though they set the standard. It was CNN, too. The suspect in Canada's Tumbler Ridge mass shooting posted about guns and hunting on her YouTube channel and appeared to have written about her struggles with mental health online, according to social media posts.And the AP:“Cis White Men” No MoreThese white male shooters are given an extra layer of protection just by declaring themselves trans. The formerly hated “cis white males” are magically transformed into women and become the center of attention, treated with sympathy, and are, above all, forgiven almost everything.Look no further than the New York Times to see how they've decided that the only demographic to fear is white men.If any shooter who hailed from the Right went on a rampage and killed kids, it would be the biggest story in the world for weeks, if not months. Everyone would have a convenient receptacle for their rage. Ah, but here, with their most protected, elevated, marginalized group responsible, they must divert that empathy and call a mass murderer a “she.”Then bend over backwards to ensure no one demonizes this specific group, even if an obvious pattern is emerging, as the Times writes:In the aftermath of the shooting, there has also been a focus on Ms. Van Rootselaar's gender identity, at a time when transgender issues have become a socially polarizing force.In a handful of high-profile shootings in the United States in recent years, the perpetrator has been wrongly identified as transgender on message boards and social media, including in the assassination last year of Charlie Kirk.Fewer than 1 in 1,000 mass shooters over the past decade have been identified as transgender, according to the Gun Violence Archive, a nonprofit research group that tracks gun violence in the United States using police reports. The group defines a mass shooting as one in which four or more victims were shot or killed.Tyler Robinson might not have been transgender himself, but he fits the pattern regardless. He was, by all accounts, avenging the pain and suffering of his “trans-furry lover” and wanted to silence Charlie Kirk, who, he said, “spread too much hate,” and it could “not be negotiated down.” Even if this odd new type of killer does not represent real transgender people overall, it represents a new kind of influencer—a hybrid of social justice extremism, self-pity, and fringe losers who want Columbine-level fame. And online, they're getting it.It's not the job of the New York Times to police the Right. It's not their job to do the bidding of Left-wing activists either. It's their job to tell the truth, and in this story, they did not tell the truth about any of these three prominent cases of transgender shooters slaughtering children, choosing instead to use their preferred pronouns. Telling the truth is a dirty job, and it takes someone bold to get that job done. It takes someone like Bridget Phetasy, who does not hold back (full video here): Girl, Boy, Son, DaughterImagine your child has just been shot by a psychotic madman, and in the wake of that murder, as you hold the limp body of your precious son or daughter, you have to then grapple with whether or not to misgender the shooter. That is the absurd reality of the times we're now living through at the hands of the Left.When bodies are identified, we identify them by their biological sex and don't ask anyone how they prefer to be addressed. So why would the New York Times and other outlets play this ugly game? Why? Using preferred pronouns out of politeness in certain situations is one thing. But using them to refer to extreme acts of violence? No. Say what is true. A man raped a woman. A man assaulted a woman. A man massacred children. Do not lie to us about something so important. If a woman did it, as with Audrey Hale, tell us that. We don't care how she identifies. We care that her victims were children and that it was extremely rare for a woman to commit these crimes, unless, of course, you understand she was pretending to be a man, which itself is a story.Only a movement rooted deeply in narcissistic tendencies would divert empathy away from the murdered children to protect the sensitive feelings of transgender people. It is perhaps the height of irony that the Left has abandoned its protection of children entirely while chasing this fast-moving contagion. What has been done to children on their watch is horrific. They've had their breasts amputated. They've been castrated. They've been rendered broken and infertile, dealing with health complications for life. And all for what? Utopia? Does utopia also include covering up the crimes of vicious psychopaths on shooting sprees? Softening them with preferred pronouns to garner sympathy? Oh, New York Times, how the mighty have fallen.Your Lying EyesAlmost nothing we read or see online can be trusted. This image, for instance, has made the rounds but is not the Tumbler Ridge Shooter. And yet, when you head to Snopes to read up on it, this is the correction:On Feb. 10 2026, an 18-year-old Canadian woman shot and killed her mother and stepbrother at their home before heading to Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and killing at least six more as of Feb. 12, 2026, and injuring dozens of others. Of course, it's wrong that this false image was splashed all over the internet and that this person, according to Snopes, is now afraid to go outside. But now we need a Snopes to correct Snopes and tell us the truth about the shooter's gender.And besides, any child knows that's not a woman in the photo, and any reasonable person knows the man who shot those kids in Canada is also not a woman, including the victims who survived and the parents. How long are we going to play this game?Is there any middle ground here? Is there any way to accept that there are transgender people and they should be treated with respect, while also understanding that there is no such thing as transgender people, not really, and that everyone is just kind of pretending? What divides America now, the war we seem to be fighting, is for reality itself. One side is devoted to the oppressor/oppressed mindset, which tells them that ICE is the Gestapo, Trump is Hitler, no humans are illegal on stolen land, and trans women are women. The other side believes in mass deportations, voter ID, and that there are only two sexes. Should we be that surprised that the Republicans took all three branches in 2024?There is such a thing as the truth. And the truth is most definitely not that a woman “traveled a mile to the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School and killed five students and one educator before turning her weapon on herself.” That is the side that is lying. Meet the new influencer: the violent warrior for social justice. To understand this phenomenon of the rise of the trans mass shooter who seeks to do maximum damage by killing children, we have to first travel back to 1999, after Columbine. It wasn't just the shooting itself, but how it was covered. The 24-hour news cycle became popular after the OJ Simpson case, just before the rise of the internet and, with it, instant notoriety that could travel across the world in minutes.Mass shooters feel victimized by society and want to do maximum damage as a form of revenge. The worst of the worst was Adam Lanza, whom many of the subsequent shooters see as a star because he inflicted maximum damage by killing the most children. That is the thrill they're seeking.But we must also look at the effects of the internet —especially social media —on the teenage brain—specifically, the male brain — as whole generations come of age online. It can't be a coincidence that so many of the mass shooters and assassins, from Mathew David Crooks and Tyler Robinson to Robin Westman and Jesse Van Rootselaar, were radicalized right around 2020, during lockdowns. Van Rootselaar began to believe he was trans around that time. It wasn't long after that that his head was filled with violent fantasies, as it is with almost all of these shooters.The rise of transgender ideology can also be tracked alongside social media, not coming into prominence until right around 2012, as Critical Race Theory began to hit schools and universities, and the oppressor/oppressed mindset took hold, and internet users began living double lives - their real lives and their avatar lives. Many white girls sought refuge in becoming trans as a way out, but also as a way to have a protective status for their online avatars.For young men who already felt disconnected and abandoned amid the Great Feminization and Great Awokening, with increasing isolation and lots of attention directed at anyone who chooses to transition, we begin to see a new hybrid - a violent shooter with transgender leanings, merged with anime, furries, and other online fetishized genres. Violence is on the rise on the Left. We can see it everywhere. But this particular brand of violence, killing kids for notoriety, is specific to this odd new hybrid emerging online. Like this video posted five years ago, "Trans Girls Need Guns," an extreme reaction to what they believe is the transphobic Right and MAGA, that there is a “trans genocide” in progress, and they need to arm themselves and seek revenge. Little Pig, Little Pig let me inI'm gonna make a rug out of your skinI'm hunting you down like you've done our worldI'm hunting you down like you've done our girlsThis ain't another witch hunt, ain't another lieWe're gonna burn down every last pig styYou heard it right here and you heard it here firstEvery dead queer leaves behind a curseTrans Girls Need Guns!Bigger than the ones we were assigned toTrans Girls Need Guns!Keep a knife to the thigh in case you gotta slice throughTrans Girls Need Guns!Burn the cis at the stake if they try and stab a stake through youTake them to the gallows, unveil the guillotineIt's the only accountability they've ever seenThey kill us in the streets, desecrated by their lawsNow we have the numbers and we have the clawsLittle pig, Little Pig so full of sinMy boot's gonna kick your face right inYou weren't so sweet & you didn't play niceWe are the cats and now you're the miceTrans Girls Need Guns!Burn the cis at the stake if they try and stab a stake through youGet an extra piece for an enby & a trans boy too!Understanding, let alone stopping, mass shooters has plagued our society since Columbine. It isn't getting any better. It seems that almost every day, someone is opening fire somewhere. What makes these cases unique is not so much that they're transgender but that, because they are transgender, the legacy media will offer a layer of protection to prioritize their fragile feelings over the deaths of even children.We must speak the truth about who they are, what they are, and where they are. Otherwise, there will be more of them. More psychopaths looking for infamy and more dead children. By now, we can't deny what is happening anymore. We need responsible journalists to dig into it and help the public better understand what's going on.Unfortunately, that's not the AP, Reuters, the BBC, CNN, and certainly not the New York Times.// This is a public episode.

The proliferation of faithlessness connects directly to the rise in mental health issues in society, which connects directly to the timetable of the onset of school shootings – starting with Columbine in 1999. That was the first generation raised in the current, faithless public school system under the Department of Education.

On April 20, 1999, what happened at Columbine High School was immediately labeled a tragedy—but the official story left behind timelines that don't line up, warnings that were ignored, and evidence that was quietly sealed. In this episode, we go far beyond the mainstream narrative. From the earliest school shootings in American history to the University of Texas tower massacre, we trace the roots of violence long before Columbine—and ask why this event became the blueprint for everything that followed. We break down the Columbine timeline minute by minute, examine inconsistencies in witness accounts, ballistics, autopsies, and sealed documents, and explore unsettling connections to media psychology, government involvement, and alleged psychological programming. Were Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold acting alone—or was something much bigger at play? ⚠️ Content warning: This episode discusses violence, mass casualty events, and disturbing themes. Listener discretion is advised. Follow me down the rabbit hole… and as always, stay skeptical.

In episode 103 Markus focuses on the right moment to stop in a song or in a book you've been working on for quite a while.

Psychological warfare is no longer theoretical.

Austin Wade Picard of The Underclass Podcast joined us for what was supposed to be a conversation about the Columbine shooting. While you'll hear us reference it throughout the episode, we never quite made it there. Instead, Austin helped us connect the dots leading up to Columbine—exploring how child predator networks, satanic influence, and mass shootings may be intertwined. Austin will be back in a couple of weeks for a deep dive into the Columbine shooting itself, but until then, join us as we begin to unravel the connections.

The Hungerford Massacre stands as one of the most shocking and tragic mass shootings in UK history. Taking place on August 19, 1987, in the quiet English town of Hungerford, this horrific event was carried out by a lone gunman named Michael Ryan, who left 16 people dead and many others injured before turning the gun on himself. In this in-depth true crime explained video, we break down the timeline of the Hungerford Massacre, explore the psychological profile of the shooter, and discuss the long-lasting impact this tragedy had on UK gun laws and public safety policies. This video isn't just a retelling of events. We're diving deep into the psychology of mass shooters, the behavioral warning signs, and the socio-political aftermath that followed. Expect a thorough analysis of how this massacre unfolded, from Ryan's early life to the moment-by-moment breakdown of the shooting spree, and the response by law enforcement and first responders. We will also explore the urban legends, conspiracy theories, and lore that have surfaced over the years surrounding the Hungerford Massacre. Some people believe there were undisclosed motives, while others speculate about mental health failures in the system that could have prevented this disaster. We'll unpack these claims and offer a fact-based look at what really happened. For viewers who are fans of true crime documentaries, crime scene analysis, and psychological crime breakdowns, this video will provide the detail and thoughtful discussion you're looking for. We'll also connect this case to other mass shooting events, drawing comparisons with incidents like the Dunblane school massacre and Columbine, and how each tragedy has shifted public conversations around violence, mental health, and gun control. This video contains sensitive content, so viewer discretion is advised. Our goal is to discuss the historical, psychological, and social context of the Hungerford Massacre with respect, accuracy, and a focus on understanding the broader implications of mass violence.

Este episódio foi inspirado no livro COLUMBINE de Dave Cullen que foi um dos primeiros repórteres a chegar na cena do crime, Cullen passou 10 anos estudando todo o caso e reuniu tudo o que descobriu nesta obra completa, considerada a melhor análise sobre o caso.• Fontes[Livro] COLUMBINE by Dave Cullen[Livro] The New Evil: Understanding the Emergence of Modern Violent Crime by Michael H. Stone & Gary Brucato

On April 20th, 1999, two seniors walked into Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado and committed what was then the deadliest school shooting in American history. Thirteen innocent people lost their lives that day, and the images of terrified students fleeing with their hands raised became seared into America's collective memory. The mainstream narrative has been told countless times, dissected in documentaries, and dramatized in films.But that narrative, the one carefully curated and presented to the public for over twenty five years, is incomplete. In some cases, it's outright false.In this episode of The Redacted Report, we pull back the curtain on one of the most scrutinized yet poorly understood tragedies in modern American history.This isn't speculation or conspiracy theory. This is documented fact drawn from official reports released years after the shooting, from lawsuits that forced the disclosure of buried evidence, from investigative journalists who spent years digging through the wreckage of a botched investigation, and from the families of victims who refused to accept the official story.We begin more than a year before the shooting, when a mother in Littleton discovered a website that chilled her to the bone. Eric Harris wasn't just posting the typical angst of a disaffected teenager. He was posting detailed bomb-making instructions, writing about his desire to kill, and making specific death threats against named individuals. When that mother and her husband went to the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office with printouts and documentation, a deputy took the complaint seriously enough to draft a search warrant for the Harris residence. Had that warrant been executed, investigators would have found pipe bombs and detailed journals planning a massacre. But the warrant was never executed. It was drafted, reviewed, and then it disappeared into the bureaucratic void.For years after the shooting, officials denied it ever existed. They were lying. We examine the catastrophic failures of law enforcement on the day of the shooting, focusing on the tragic death of teacher Dave Sanders. Shot at approximately 11:26 in the morning, Sanders was dragged into a science classroom where students put a sign in the window reading "1 bleeding to death" and called 911. They were told help was coming. But SWAT teams didn't reach that classroom until approximately 3:00 in the afternoon.For three and a half hours, a wounded man lay bleeding while hundreds of law enforcement officers stood outside the building following protocols designed for situations completely unlike what they were facing. Sanders died from wounds that might have been survivable with prompt medical attention. We delve into the infamous basement tapes, the recordings Harris and Klebold made in the weeks before the shooting that were viewed by select officials but hidden from the public for over a decade before being destroyed in 2011. Those tapes reportedly contained statements about who knew about the killers' plans, where they obtained their weapons, and admissions that would have raised serious questions about whether others should have faced charges. Whatever was on those recordings is gone forever, destroyed by officials who claimed they were acting on mental health advice but who had already demonstrated a pattern of concealing their own failures. We dismantle the myths that the media created in the aftermath of the tragedy. The Trench Coat Mafia narrative that led to a nationwide crackdown on goth fashion and industrial music. The bullying explanation that provided a comforting but largely inaccurate cause for the violence. The story of Cassie Bernall, the alleged Christian martyr who said yes when asked if she believed in God, a powerful story that became a rallying cry for evangelical Christians but that the evidence suggests probably didn't happen the way it was told.These myths served various agendas, but they were largely wrong, and they prevented a more accurate understanding of what actually occurred.We explore the fact that the shooting was supposed to be the sideshow. Harris and Klebold built ninety nine improvised explosive devices, including two twenty pound propane bombs placed in the cafeteria and timed to detonate during the busiest lunch period. If those bombs had worked, the death toll wouldn't have been thirteen. It would have been in the hundreds.The massacre we remember was their backup plan, what they did when their primary plan failed. This level of premeditation demolishes the narrative of bullied kids who snapped and raises serious questions about how two teenagers could build a small arsenal without anyone noticing.We document the systematic cover up that followed the shooting. The draft search warrant that officials claimed didn't exist until it was discovered years later. The files that were sealed. The deputies who were instructed not to discuss their prior investigations. The sheriff who called grieving parents liars when they tried to tell the truth. The district attorney who never convened a grand jury. The evidence that was destroyed. The officials who retired with their pensions intact while no one was ever held accountable.We examine the controversial question of Eric Harris's psychiatric medication and what role, if any, it may have played in his violence. We explore what this case reveals about the limitations of mental health treatment and the ability of skilled manipulators to fool therapists, counselors, and parents alike. And we consider the legacy of Columbine more than twenty five years later. The lessons that were learned and the lessons that weren't. The reforms that were implemented and the reforms that should have been.The patterns of institutional failure and cover up that we've seen repeated in tragedy after tragedy since that April morning in 1999. Thirteen people died at Columbine High School. They were Cassie Bernall, Steven Curnow, Corey DePooter, Kelly Fleming, Matthew Kechter, Daniel Mauser, Daniel Rohrbough, Rachel Scott, Isaiah Shoels, John Tomlin, Lauren Townsend, Kyle Velasquez, and Dave Sanders. They deserved better from the people who were supposed to protect them.They deserved the truth. And they deserved to be remembered not as symbols or martyrs or victims of a myth, but as real people whose lives were cut short by violence that might have been prevented.This is The Redacted Report. The truth is out there, even when they don't want you to find it.

E649 - Roger Chiocchi - From Advertising Executive to Author, The Brushy Ridge Militia - Parents Take Gun Control Into Their Own HandsAbout the authorEclectic is a word that aptly defines Roger Chiocchi. Constantly questioning, How does it work?, Chiocchi graduated from Ithaca College and then the Wharton School (MBA) with distinction. He then rose through the ranks at mega-agency, Young & Rubicam, to Senior VP where he ran the advertising campaigns for Advil, TWA, AT&T, Sears (the “Softer Side of Sears” campaign), among others. He then went on to eventually become President of Y&R subsidiary, The Lord Group, where he helped transition NYNEX to Bell Atlantic then to Verizon, while bringing in new accounts like The Sports Authority, the Cayman Islands Department of Tourism, and HIP Health Plans.Chiocchi regards himself as a perpetual student, constantly scouring YouTube for lectures on astrophysics, quantum mechanics and human consciousness and whatever else suits his fancy next. But why not? His appetite for knowledge is eclectic.How a School Shooting Turned Suburban Parents into Federal Criminals.Book: The Brushy Ridge Militia is about how the intersection of grief and helplessness leads a group of parents to become so enraged after a mass shooting to conclude that enough's enough, compelling them to commit a major act of civil disobedience.After progressing through the many stages of grief, the parents of the deceased children of Brushy Ridge, Ohio High School lobby Congress to pass tighter gun control legislation. When they attempt to meet with conservative Speaker of the House, Fred Grantham, he refuses and walks right by, emotionless, as they stand outside his office, displaying pictures of their precious children.At that point, they conclude enough's enough.Upon return to their hometown, the parents feel like they've banged their heads against a wall. Why when over half of Americans want stricter gun laws, even after the tragedies of Sandy Hook, Columbine, Marjory Stoneman Douglas and, now, Brushy Ridge, why won't Congress budge?Hank Patrick, an attorney and father of one of the deceased students, tells them it's because of twenty-seven ambiguous words called the Second Amendment. While many gun advocates hide behind those words to protect their right to unfettered access to guns of all types, those words say nothing of the sort, Patrick explains. What they do say is that Americans have the right to form citizen militias to fight a government that has become tyrannical.They decide to be true to the words of the Second Amendment as originally intended and form a citizen's militia, The Brushy Ridge Militia, and scheme to take Speaker Fred Grantham hostage until he agrees to bring more reasonable gun legislation to the floor.By surreptitiously following Grantham's moves and cleverly evading the FBI, the parents intercept Grantham at an apartment building in DC and bring him to a spot in rural West Virginia where no radio transmissions are allowed. For four days, they force him to watch the security cam video of the shooting and morgue shots of their cherished children.Finally, he agrees, but shortly after, recants.https://www.facebook.com/RogerChiocchi/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

April 20, 1999 changed everything we thought we understood about safety, about schools, and about the capacity for violence within our own communities. In this episode of The Guilty Files, we take a comprehensive and unflinching look at the Columbine High School massacre, cutting through decades of misinformation to separate fact from myth in one of the most misunderstood crimes in American history. Nearly everything the public believes about Columbine has been shaped by early media errors, cultural panic, and narratives that simply do not hold up under scrutiny. The so-called Trenchcoat Mafia was never a factor. The idea that Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold targeted jocks or Christians has been largely debunked. The widely circulated story that Cassie Bernall affirmed her faith moments before her death did not occur as it was later told. And perhaps most critically, Columbine was never intended to be a traditional school shooting. It was designed as a mass bombing meant to collapse the cafeteria and kill hundreds, potentially surpassing the Oklahoma City bombing as the deadliest act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history.The shooting was a contingency plan, carried out only after the bombs failed to detonate.This episode traces the full arc of the crime from beginning to end. We examine the backgrounds of both perpetrators not to glorify them or grant the infamy they sought, but to understand the warning signs that were missed and the systems that failed. Eric Harris, a military child who moved frequently before settling in Littleton, Colorado, maintained a website filled with threats and bomb-making instructions that were known to authorities and never acted upon.Dylan Klebold, a gifted local student, struggled with severe depression and suicidal ideation that was documented in private journals but went unrecognized until after the attack. We follow the eleven months of planning that led up to April 20, including the alarming ease with which two teenagers obtained four firearms and constructed ninety-nine explosive devices. We examine the gun show loophole that allowed an eighteen-year-old honors student to purchase weapons for her underage friends, along with the illegal sale of a TEC-DC9 handgun by a twenty-two-year-old seeking quick money.At the center of the episode is a minute-by-minute reconstruction of the day itself, built from the official Jefferson County Sheriff's Office timeline, witness testimony, surveillance footage, and forensic evidence. From Eric Harris purchasing propane tanks at a Texaco station that morning to the forty-nine minutes of violence that left fourteen people dead and twenty-four wounded, we document exactly what happened and when.But this episode does what too much coverage of mass violence fails to do. It centers the victims. Rachel Scott, whose writings on compassion inspired the global movement Rachel's Challenge. Daniel Rohrbough, a fifteen-year-old freshman who never had a chance to escape.  Dave Sanders, the beloved teacher and coach who saved more than a hundred students before being shot and left to bleed to death for over four hours while help failed to reach him. Kyle Velasquez, Steven Curnow, Cassie Bernall, Isaiah Shoels, Matthew Kechter, Lauren Townsend, John Tomlin, Kelly Fleming, Daniel Mauser, and Corey DePooter. Each had a future, a family, and a life that mattered. We also honor Anne Marie Hochhalter, who was paralyzed during the attack and whose death in February 2025 was ruled a homicide by the Jefferson County Coroner, bringing the final death toll to fourteen. We examine the catastrophic failures in the law enforcement response, including the contain-and-wait protocol that kept officers outside the school for more than an hour after the attack began. Dave Sanders was alive for hours, tended to by students as a sign in the window read “One bleeding to death.” Police snipers saw it. Dispatch communicated with people in the room. Help still did not arrive in time. His daughter later won a $1.5 million settlement against Jefferson County, and his death helped fundamentally change how police across the country respond to active shooter situations.The episode also dismantles the myths that emerged in the immediate aftermath. The Trenchcoat Mafia narrative. The revenge fantasy. The blame placed on video games and musicians. The Cassie Bernall martyrdom story. We explain what the FBI's psychological analysis actually concluded about Harris and Klebold and why the truth, while less sensational than the myths, matters far more.Finally, we examine the lasting impact of Columbine more than twenty-six years later. The lawsuits and settlements. The evolution of school security. The gun control debates that surged and faded. Sue Klebold's memoir and her advocacy for mental health awareness.And the phenomenon researchers now call “The Columbine Effect,” with more than seventy subsequent attacks directly inspired by or linked to what happened that day. This is not an easy episode. It is long, detailed, and emotionally heavy. But it is also an episode that refuses to give the perpetrators the notoriety they sought. Instead, it remembers the dead, honors the survivors who turned trauma into purpose, and acknowledges a community that stood together under the words  “We Are Columbine.”If you take anything from this episode, let it be the names of the fourteen people who should have been allowed to grow old. Say their names. Remember their stories. That is how we push back against the darkness.Content warning: This episode contains detailed discussions of violence, death, and suicide. Listener discretion is advised.

On April 20th 1999, twp students; Dylan Klebold, and Eric Harris would arrive at Columbine High School, just after 11am, with their plan being to take as many lives as possible. Within the first 2 hours, the media had already decided that this was the result of two kids who were bullied, who listened to Marilyn Mason, and who were apart of something called 'The Trench Coat Mafia' and in reality, none of that was true.Support the showIf you're interested in receiving bonus episodes, early release dates, an everything scary sticker and ‘thank you' as well as a shout out on our regular feed!

Welcome back to Nephilim Death Squad — today we continue our deep-dive with Austin Picard into the horrifying, hidden, and heavily covered-up truth behind Columbine and the mind-war programs connected to it.In Part 2, we break down:

This week, I had the privilege of sitting down yet again with the one and only TopLobsta, and David L Corbo (AKA The Raven) of "Nephilim Death Squad". Enjoy this conversation as we delve into the proverbial deep end of conspiracy and parapolitics dissecting the anatomy of a school shooting through the untold story of the Columbine massacre, following the echoes of this tragedy to a much more plausible alternative conclusion.Through objectively reexamining the details of this case we pry back the curtain yet again, ultimately revealing the all too familiar hidden hand responsible for guiding these chaotic events into place. The facade of virtue drenched in moral corruption reflects the cunning nature of our unending adversary, spotlighting the manipulative tactics of these engineers of outcome.Please consider supporting our work- Austin's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/TheUnderclassPodcastAustin's Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-underclass-podcast--6511540Austin's Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/TheUnderclassPodcastAustin's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheUnderclassPodcast☠️ NEPHILIM DEATH SQUAD Skip the ads.

They might look like ordinary women as they Instacart from Bristol Farms or strengthen their core at morning pilates. You might be standing behind them in line at Starbucks as they order their half-cream, half-caff, no whip, no foam, triple-pump chai latte with oat milk. They seem to be everywhere once you know how to recognize them. They're the target demographic for Audible's Bestsellers list. They account for the bulk of spending on sites like Amazon and Skims. Ever wonder how it is that Goop still stays in business? They live in the Hamptons, Brentwood, or Malibu. They're married to talk show hosts like Jimmy Kimmel. Or they're married to themselves. They're having Thanksgiving in a gated community in Montecito. They're cloning duplicates who parrot the talking points of the coven like abortion is healthcare and no human is illegal, and trans women are women. They've taught them to be strident, demanding, and intolerant with standards too high for any man, job, or country to meet. Their world before was idyllic - a utopia that kept them at the top because they ordered this new world in such a way that nothing and no one threatened their power. The future is female. It's time for women to rule. White Dudes for Harris. They call it the Great Feminization, but really, it's a coven of witches.Just before Charlie Kirk's assassination, Jezebel and Etsy cast a dark spell on Charlie. Why? Because they couldn't shut him up. In their world, they decide what people can and can't say, think, buy, or do. They've taken down the “story,” but it still exists on the Wayback Machine:These days, witches cater to more than just personal grudges. And it's not uncommon for them to channel their energy toward thwarting Republicans (there's even a subreddit devoted to casting nightly hexes on Trump). Are you interested in punishing Kirk for the years of regressive rhetoric he's shouted at America's youth and anyone within earshot? Here at Jezebel, we're about to find out if there's a spell for that.And:After placing my first spell, “MAKE EVERYONE HATE HIM,” I was left with more questions than answers. How long would it take to kick in? Should I have splurged for a pricier spell to make it work faster? Shortly after, the witch messaged me trying to upsell me a $50 “spell booster.” When I asked what it did, she explained it would “amplify the energetic support” of the main spell, or else I could let it unfold “in its natural timing.” I decided to trust the witch's will.And her closing paragraph:Sunday, August 24, passed. Nothing. Monday, still nothing. Tuesday rolled around, and I began to wonder if I'd been scammed. But then I reminded myself: this is witchcraft, not Amazon. The forces operate on their own schedule.Megyn Kelly reported exclusively on how this affected Erika Kirk after Charlie was assassinated, leaving behind two small children and a widespread movement that touched millions:What bothers them so much about Erika Kirk, other than that she is brave, kind, beautiful, and true, is what I once believed about the Christian Right. I'd never be able to live like that, I always thought. Then I saw what happened to the Left, to all of us, without religion. Now, we are a movement that believes it's okay to sterilize children and mutilate their bodies without their consent. We treat abortion like it's an act of empowerment.Erika Kirk put her faith in God and in her husband. These are mortal sins to the Wicked Witches of the Left. Thou shalt have no God before ourselves. We are the power because we are empowered. But unfortunately, it has resulted in a movement ruled by and defined by evil and hatred. Jennifer Welch, a prominent Wicked Witch of the Left who podcasts alongside a Renfield-like puppet whose name no one knows but who nods along numbly as Welch spits out her invective - “I call him Canks,” she says about Trump after her “Cankles McTaco Tits” went viral. These are the same people who pearl clutch over Trump calling a reporter “Piggy.” Bill Madden and Marco Foster are two of the feminized men dominated by the witches. They do nothing but post the ugliest things all day long on social media. They have found their perfect voice now in Jennifer Welch.Here is Walter Kirn and Matt Taibbi on Jennifer Welch:After Charlie Kirk was assassinated, the witches and their compliant male counterparts decided it was more than justified to celebrate his death, to splash around in his blood like the Manson family after they hit the home of Sharon Tate. It didn't matter to them even a little bit, just as the near-assassination of Trump didn't matter. Even death didn't satiate the beast. Charlie's brutal assassination wasn't enough. They wanted — NEEDED — more. And so the witches convened once again, with Joy Reid, Jennifer Welch, and her sidekick, whose name no one will ever know or remember, to word-vomit about their perceived enemies. Megyn Kelly was having none of it:Even the Real Clear Politics gang had words (full video here):And here is Erika's response, the one Tom Bevan references:If the spell on Charlie Kirk was to “make everyone hate him,” then it failed. If it was to shut him up, it also failed. His message will carry on. He is more beloved today than he ever was in life. It turns out that love is harder to kill than even people. Love lives on in the hearts of all of us. It spreads. It unites us. It redeems us. Love was what hundreds of thousands expressed in the wake of Charlie's death and even now. Charlie's memory lives on in clips of his tiny daughter running into his arms. In how he told the story of meeting Erika:And how he explained Newton's laws to his baby.Or money matters:They believe those who do not agree with them must be gotten rid of, and nothing else will satisfy. They will use emotional blackmail, uniform caterwauling, non-stop whining and complaining, and all of the other ways women have learned over the millennia to drive society to the brink of madness, and none of it will work.Unfortunately for the Wicked Witches of the Left, their power is about as useful as their policies and their candidates. Limp, dull, flaccid.Women like I used to be and witches like they are tend to our needs and our fragility. For years, we treated ourselves to therapy, yoga, meditation, Oprah, de-aging, antidepressants, and keto.Eventually, when we fixed ourselves and attempted to raise our perfect children, we overprotected them. In the wake of Columbine and 911, everywhere we looked, we saw danger. We thought every man was a potential child molester. We worried about school shootings, we worried about microplastics and pollution. We thought we could protect our kids to raise them with high self-esteem, but we forgot about strength and resiliency.We abandoned that in ourselves, and we never taught it to our children.What I've learned coming out of this era is that you can't control the world. Even if, as women, as mothers, as wives, as business owners, we'd like to have complete control over everything because we believe we could create a perfect world, I eventually realized you can't. It's not possible. Trump came along because we needed to be reminded of what it is to survive things, events, tragedies, wars, and words. The answer is not to control everything and everyone. The answer is to be strong and just to survive.And that's why these women are now witches, huddled over their cauldron, chanting out that their spells will never succeed and never hold power. Because they can't survive. If they can't survive words, and they can't survive Trump, and they can't survive open debate and Charlie Kirk, then they most certainly can't be in charge of this country. All anyone had to do was listen to Charlie and hear what he had to say. If you disagreed, debate him. Yet, you can hear in their messaging who they thought he was, and this was the worst they could say about him, from Jezebel:A cornerstone of Kirk's nightmare ideology is his insistence that, since gaining more independence, Western women are more miserable than ever. He tells auditoriums full of young women that our freedom is a flaw, not an achievement. He's obsessed with declining birth rates and idealizes the 1950s, when women's only “job” was tending to children and husbands. If we all abandoned our careers and returned to motherhood, we'd be happier, according to Kirk. Indeed, he fails to realize that I would be happiest if he would just shut up.She could not offer up a stronger argument to the contrary because look at her. She is proof that he was right. She's miserable. Jennifer Welch is miserable. All of the witches are miserable. I was miserable too. I know what it is to live the feminist lie, and I know what it is to look back at my life with regret. How can they sell that to young women? The Jezebel writer consoled herself with a petition that was launched on the Utah campus that would become the site of Charlie's murder. The petition was launched on Friday, August 22, and had already been signed over 3,800 times. Could this be the “MAKE EVERYONE HATE HIM” at work?”But the petition grew to 6,829, all of them in agreement that the university should prevent Charlie from speaking:Sign this petition to send a clear message that we stand united for a university that upholds the tenets of inclusivity, respect, and enlightenment. Let us work together to ensure that Utah State University remains a campus where all students feel safe, valued, and respected.Yeah, shutting him up by any means necessary sure sounds like “inclusivity, respect, and enlightenment” to me. Sounds more like the very definition of fascism, “conform or else.”These wicked witches and so much of the Left's once-mighty empire invented a version of Charlie Kirk that never existed and transformed him into a monster of their own making. They wanted to send a message to anyone who might think about disagreeing with them, on a college campus, no less. What are they teaching these kids? Not free speech or open debate.They invent monsters, chase those monsters, and then act shocked when loser nobodies pick up a gun and become their heroes. No, they aren't shocked. They are grateful. They should heed the wise words of Friedrich Nietzsche:Welcome to the abyss, Wicked Witches of the Left.//Tip JarMusic… This is a public episode.

In this explosive episode of Nephilim Death Squad, Austin Picard returns to break down the dark truth behind the Columbine Massacre—military intelligence ties, psychological operations, “the influencer industrial complex,” satanic power structures, and the weaponization of trauma.We dig deep into mind-control programs, social-engineering pipelines, dissociation, and the disturbing connections between mass shooters, intelligence agencies, underground networks, and modern digital radicalization. Austin exposes how events like Columbine, Sandy Hook, and Aurora may be linked to MK-style programming, false narratives, and covert influence systems—while grounding the entire discussion in spiritual warfare and biblical worldview.We also talk Sam Tripoli, authenticity vs. controlled opposition, the Boule, Tavistock ties, Hollywood handlers, Israel, prophecy manipulation, the modern clown pill, and why fear is the goal — but Christ destroys fear at the root.Patreon — ad-free, early access, live chat, and front-row access to Brohemian Grove tickets.⭐ Guest Socials — Austin PicardYouTube:➡️ https://www.youtube.com/@TheUnderclassPodcastInstagram:➡️ https://www.instagram.com/theunderclasspodcastX (Twitter):➡️ https://twitter.com/UnderclassPodTikTok:➡️ https://www.tiktok.com/@theunderclasspodcastPodcast (Audio Platforms):➡️ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-underclass-podcast/id1732207926➡️ https://open.spotify.com/show/43sFaQFdh18VxD9hpkR0Nz00:00 Introduction and Welcome01:40 Guest Introduction and Banter02:14 Deep Dive into Personal Philosophy05:55 Influencer Industrial Complex06:44 Candace Owens and Media Manipulation07:53 Conspiracy Theories and Social Engineering10:28 Biblical References and Modern Israel22:22 Columbine and 9/11 Connections29:29 Introduction to Sam Tripoli's Influence30:20 Sam Tripoli's Christian Values30:49 Sam Tripoli's Generosity and Support32:32 The LIBOR Scandal Introduction33:53 The LIBOR Scandal and Child Trafficking43:26 Hollywood Abuse and Cover-Ups48:51 The Columbine Effect and Radicalization54:14 James Holmes and Military Intelligence Connections01:07:03 DARPA Programs and the Salk Institute01:07:45 Lookout Mountain Laboratory and Moon Landing Theories01:08:39 James Holmes and Artificial Intelligence01:10:00 LIBOR Scandal and Mass Shootings01:10:45 Sandy Hook and Conspiracy Theories01:13:43 Mind Control and Behavioral Modification01:19:55 Columbine Massacre and Psychological Programming01:33:42 Hollywood Influence and Trench Coat Mafia01:45:28 Serial Killers and Mass Shooters01:47:26 Conclusion and Future DiscussionsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/nephilim-death-squad--6389018/support.☠️ Nephilim Death Squad — New episodes 5x/week.Join our Patreon for early access, bonus shows & the private Telegram hive.Subscribe on YouTube & Rumble, follow @NephilimDSquad on X/Instagram, grab merch at toplobsta.com. Questions/bookings: chroniclesnds@gmail.com — Stay dangerous.

In May of 1975, a high school in Brampton, Ontario became the scene of Canada's first modern mass school shooting. Sixteen-year-old Michael Slobodian walked into Brampton Centennial Secondary School carrying two rifles in a guitar case and, within minutes, left two people dead, thirteen wounded, and an entire generation traumatized. In this episode of the Canadian Gothic we trace the events leading up to the attack, the moments of terror inside the school, and the survivor stories that have echoed through the decades. This is the forgotten Canadian tragedy that unfolded long before Columbine, a chilling reminder that the roots of modern day school gun violence reach further back, and closer to home, than most realize.

In the groundbreaking play “The Comeuppance” by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, old wounds rise to the surface when a group of friends reunite 20 years after their high school graduation. The Tony and Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright wanted to shine a light on the elder millennial demographic — the kids that came of age alongside Columbine and the Sept. 11 attacks. Now, a new Canadian production of “The Comeuppance” is opening at Toronto's Soulpepper Theatre. Branden joins guest host Talia Schlanger to talk about the play and how it looks back on the events that shaped a generation.

A six-year-old brought a gun to class. Four adults sounded the alarm. The assistant principal said the boy's pockets were too small to hold a gun. Hours later, teacher Abby Zwerner was bleeding on a classroom floor. The bullet came from a child's hand — but the failure came from the adults who didn't listen. In this episode, Tony Brueski and former prosecutor Eric Faddis dig into The Price of Ignorance — the $40-million civil trial that exposes how bureaucracy, denial, and institutional cowardice nearly cost a teacher her life. They break down the legal concept of foreseeability — how repeated warnings establish negligence — and the difference between a bad decision and reckless disregard for human safety. Abby Zwerner's case reveals the rot inside American education: administrators afraid of optics, systems paralyzed by fear of lawsuits, and a culture that prioritizes image over action. Tony and Eric walk through every failure: the ignored warnings, the denied bag search, the “too small” comment, and the claim that being shot is a “normal occupational risk.” They also unpack the emotional and psychological damage to teachers nationwide who watch the case wondering, Would my school protect me? This episode asks the questions that cut through legal jargon: When does negligence become moral crime? How many warnings are enough before inaction becomes guilt? And if a jury rules that a teacher's shooting was “unforeseeable,” what message does that send to every educator still waiting to be heard? In a country with 344 school shootings since Columbine, this trial isn't an exception — it's a mirror. #AbbyZwerner #SchoolShooting #Negligence #TrueCrime #JusticeSystem #TonyBrueski #EricFaddis #EducationReform #VictimsRights #TeacherSafety #ZwernerTrial #Accountability Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Welcome to "The Underclass Podcast" with Austin Picard,I am an independent researcher who cant stomach being lied to on a daily basis by the Mainstream Media. While we live in a fracturing society launched into parallel realities falling perfectly onto the two sides of the political spectrum, I remain in the underclass...This week, we explore the anatomy of a school shooting through the untold story of the Columbine massacre following the echoes of this tragedy to a much more plausible alternative conclusion. Through objectively reexamining the details of this case we pry back the curtain yet again, ultimately revealing the all too familiar hidden hand responsible for guiding these chaotic events into place. The facade of virtue drenched in moral corruption reflects the cunning nature of our unending adversary, spotlighting the manipulative tactics of these engineers of outcome.Columbine has since become a proverbial expression for school shootings and mass violence symbolizing the tragic influence of such events on modern society while serving as a stark reminder of the sinister nature of problem reaction solution and the dystopian pretext so often exploited and leveraged against us in times of crisis. Modern Gladio and the strategy of tension provide the backdrop for our story as we take up our position in the trenches on the frontlines of the MindWar. Psychological operations and socially engineered contagion are the sophisticated weapons of war, manipulating emotions and social behavioral patterns to spread the mind virus within any given group, often relying on advanced psychological tactics, while perfectly orchestrating social influence to achieve specific outcomes. Columbine introduced the very concept of school shootings into the public consciousness and inevitably became the blueprint for future school shooters, but what if the most extraordinary details surrounding this case were in large part ignored throughout the course of the cover-up? With significant proof of prior knowledge, numerous witness accounts suggesting additional gunmen, revelations of prior planning, adult co-conspirators, indications of mind control, connections to the occult, links to military intelligence, and additional compelling evidence even implicating a potential child sex ring operating in the area, the age old playbook and recognizable patterns begin to take form...Please consider supporting my work-Austin's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/TheUnderclassPodcastAustin's Spreaker: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-underclass-podcast--6511540Austin's Rumble: https://rumble.com/user/TheUnderclassPodcastAustin's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheUnderclassPodcast#Columbine #ColumbineMassacre #EricHarris #DylanKlebold #TrenchCoatMafia #BlackjackPizza #MKUltra #TheStarChamber #WhiteEagleUnderground #BrotherhoodoftheWhiteTemple #WhiteEagleLodge #MauriceDoreal #PaulSchultz #MichaelAquino #LillithAquino #WadeMichaelPage #SikhTempleShooting #Hammerskins #ConnecticutWhiteWolves #DeathEducationProgramBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-underclass-podcast--6511540/support.

This week, Shat The Movies kicks off our annual Spooktacular with a bloody, bong-ripped bang as we revisit 1999's Idle Hands — the stoner-horror-comedy hybrid where Devon Sawa's right hand goes full demonic and Seth Green proves that death can't stop a good hang. Commissioned by listener Christopher, this Halloween starter brings everything you'd expect from the late '90s: MTV aesthetics, a killer soundtrack, Jessica Alba's scooter, and enough weed jokes to make even Scary Movie blush. But does Idle Hands still hit, or is it just a high school fever dream of Doritos dust and Hot Topic energy? Gene and Big D dig into the film's Columbine-cursed box office fate and confess which '90s music videos helped shape their teenage “spooky season.” Along the way, we get a Fred Willard appreciation moment, a detour into Buffy fandom, and the single weirdest tangent about grasshoppers ever recorded on this podcast. Is Idle Hands an underrated Halloween gem that deserves a second life—or just proof that the devil really does find work for idle bros? Either way, the Spooktacular has begun. Movie Plot:A lazy stoner's hand gets possessed and goes on a killing spree, murdering his parents, friends, and half the Halloween dance. Now Anton, his undead buddies, and a demon-hunting priestess must stop the disembodied hand before it drags his girlfriend to Hell.

On this episode of The Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast, host Rick Saez sits down with Tyler Pierce—a lifelong outdoorsman, mountaineer, and bowhunter whose love for adventure began early among the Colorado Rockies. From summiting his first 14er at age twelve and surviving eight knee surgeries to building his own supplement brand, Panglossian, Tyler shares how the outdoors shaped his resilience, his gratitude, and his drive to keep getting after it. Show Notes What Happened Back when I was 16, I applied for this obscure leadership scholarship—$5K to go live in the backcountry for two months with a bunch of strangers and a couple maps. No phone. No GPS. No “check engine” light for your soul. After 58 days navigating the Rockies, came the solo. Three days. No guides. No group. Just a tarp, a sleeping bag, and a goal: find my way 18 miles across unknown terrain using only coordinates and instinct. I had no idea what I was doing—but I also had no way out. There were no excuses. No parents. No bail-out plan. Just me, some snow-packed passes, and the quiet echo of, “figure it out.” That trip gave me something I couldn't have gotten anywhere else. Gratitude. Grit. And the unshakeable belief that I could handle hard things—even if my boots were frozen solid. Principle We don't grow when things are comfortable. We grow when the path is unclear, the gear is minimal, and the only option is to keep going anyway. The world tells us we need the perfect setup, the best equipment, or the ideal timing. But the truth is—those who succeed in the wild (and in business, and in life) are the ones who move forward even when none of those boxes are checked. Transition Too many folks wait. Wait for more money. More time. The right gear. The perfect plan. But what if the reason you feel stuck isn't a lack of resources—it's the belief that you need them in the first place? That belief is what holds most adventurers, creatives, and would-be founders back. That's Why… That's why this week's episode of the Outdoor Adventure Lifestyle Podcast with Tyler Pierce isn't just a story—it's a callout. A challenge. A reminder that the wild doesn't reward perfection. It rewards persistence. Tyler went from food stamps to founder, from Columbine survivor to elite bowhunter, from frozen boots to building arrows from animals he harvested himself. And through it all? He never waited to feel “ready.” He just kept moving. Call to Action If you've been waiting for the “right time” to chase the thing calling your name—stop. Waiting only gets you older and more frustrated. Listen to this episode and remember what it means to move with purpose, even when the path is hard.

As this episode drops, CrimeCon is taking place in Denver, Colorado. We're diving into a couple mysteries that occurred in Littleton, about 10 miles away from Denver. These are cases that garnered much less attention than other crimes, such as the Columbine shootings. But the circumstances of each make them very perplexing. Join Mike and Morf as they delve into the mysteries of Littleton, Colorado. The first case involves a triple murder in 2002 at a bowling alley called the AMF Broadway Lanes. The second case is the murder of two teenagers in 2000 at a Subway sandwich shop just blocks from Columbine High School.   You can help support the show through Patreon.

Welcome to Tin Foil Hat with Sam Tripoli. In this episode, Austin Ward Picard and Brad Binkley delve into the disturbing connections between the Aurora theater shooting, the Sandy Hook tragedy, and the LIBOR financial scandal—highlighting that both James Holmes and Adam Lanza reportedly had family members linked to the ongoing investigation.. They argue that Holmes, a neuroscience student with alleged DARPA connections, shows signs of being a modern Manchurian Candidate, potentially subjected to mind control and Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Drawing on From PSYOP to MindWar by Vallely and Aquino, they highlight the use of psychological warfare to erode free will and reshape identity. The Aurora event mirrors Columbine in method and symbolism, with testimony from ex-prisoner Steven Unruh and references to the 1986 Batman comic suggesting deliberate behavioral programming and "Revelation of the Method" as part of a broader assault on human consciousness.
