Ambiguous, Undecipherable, Suspended : The Life and Murder of Pier Paolo Pasolini (Ep.54)

Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Pier Paolo Pasolini was a poet, novelist, filmmaker, and one of Italy's most celebrated (and most controversial) figures. He was murdered by a teenage hustler in 1975. Or was he? Well, the murder part happened, but was it committed by the Freemasons? The Catholic Church? The Mafia? The Italian government? Pasolini had a lot of anti-fans. Let's find out. Music by Pixaby.

Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Father Frank was loved by his congregation, and known for his generosity and supportive nature.

Larry Eyler was a little-remembered serial killer who took the lives of many young men in Illinois and Indiana in the early 1980s. Think John Wayne Gacy but with less infamy.

Excuse the Blood: Norwegian Black Metal (Ep.51)

Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) AAAAARRRRSSHRIRIEKKFK - try to yell that loudly over a chainsaw in use and microphone feedback. That's basically what black metal sounds like. It was big in Norway in the 90s. What was also big then was black metal musicians and their fans burning down churches and murdering people.

Mannequins: Herb Baumeister (Ep.50)

Send J. Harvey a text! (Try to be nice, but I get it, everyone's a little cranky sometimes...) Welcome to Season 6 of your favorite problematic podcast. In fact, this is your favorite problematic podcast's favorite problematic podcast! Herb Baumeister was one weird dude. All he wanted for Christmas was peanut M&Ms, world peace, and to strangle a whole bunch of gay men in the early 90s. What an ###hole. Note: Nope, I was counting wrong.

A Twist of the Long Knife: Ernst Röhm (Ep.45)

He was also gay. I can't reconcile the two either, but I was raised to believe that all gay people are pious do-gooders. Therefore, a gay Nazi is just insane to me. (Some of that is sarcasm.)
