EACH WEEK RIDE SHOTGUN with retired cold case investigator Paul Holes and investigative journalist Billy Jensen as they attempt to solve an unsolved murder case using a variety of methods, from routine shoe-leather work to advanced technologies like familial DNA searches and social media geotargeting.
This American Life
The Murder Squad is always a great listen and has legitimacy added to it by having Paul Holes as co-host.
Any good episodes ?
Just to clarify for anyone who doesn't have time to read the links. It's not just that they talk about their extreme right conservative beliefs. In fact, they try to hide it because unlike most extreme right conservatives, they don't want people to know. Which is weird.
Here's the big difference:
Trump tried to appoint Brett and Alice's husband to the federal bench so they could get busy taking away your rights. And Brett's wife was employed by the Trump administration. That's how he got the appointment.
I know plenty of people who do not believe in reproductive rights. But I don't know anyone who tried to get appointed to be a federal judge so they could do something about it.
To me, that's pretty scary.
In terms of Alice's husband, yes, they do not believe in a woman's right to choose which stems from their prominent membership in the Catholic Church. And yes, if you do some research, you can find information about how Alice's husband would use his position as a federal judge to take away voting rights.
Lastly, Brett's blog posts in the wake of Sandy Hook are reprehensible. No matter where you fall on reproductive rights and access to voting, Brett's blog posts in the wake of Sandy Hook are Alex Jones level.
Edit 2: Over at the subreddit, the prosecutors are removing any links to information about Brett and Alice and the actions Brett would have taken as a federal judge. A few people have swung by in the last 24 hours to say they just learned about this and are cancelling their Patreon. About 20 people are trying to have a conversation but all that's getting removed, in real time.
First three were great. I’m on the fence about episode 4Listening to "sweet Bobby" at the moment. It is about a catfishing case and it is jawdropping.
