host of Alphabet Boys. A year ago, we released the show's first season, titled Trojan hears a reference to the Silver Hearst Mickey drove around Denver while secretly working for the FBI. Since the show's release, I've received a lot of questions, among them, what has been the show's impact, what happened to Zeb Hall, the activist Mickey set up in a gun charge, and of course what happened to Mickey and I have some answers. In short, there's been impact.

The ACLU of Colorado has sued the FBI, alleging that the secret investigation we revealed an Alphabet Boys violated the constitutional rights of Colorado activists. Zeb has petitioned the court to vacate his guilty plea based on information we disclosed in Alphabet Boys, and we found Mickey thanks to a listener who was driving down a bike weekend Daytona Beach last year. While listening to Alphabet Boys in Daytona. The

listener spotted Mickey's silverhears and confronted Mickey. Well, we fucking cornered him out behind one of the bars, and from there the story gets wild, because of course it does.
