Have you heard about Mothman, but never felt like reading the book? Do you want three guys at a bus stop to give you all the talking points so you don't have to? You got nothing better to do right?

For this series we're going to explore the life and work of ufologist John Alva Keel. The man responsible for the Mothman Prophecies, in some ways the Men in Black franchise, as well as the concept of "ultraterrestrials" to explain the UFO phenomenon. Join us on the bleeding edge of Woo Woo!

To wrap up our series on the book we're going to take look at Manson's time in San Francisco and all the groovy connections he might have had with the CIA through his visits to The Height Ashbury Free Medical Clinic. Come on in and don't mind the pencil pushers! It's all part of a test we're doing...

In this episode we're exploring the life of Reeve Whitson, an alleged spy who embedded himself in the Manson case as well as the FBI's COINTELPRO program and the CIA's Operation Chaos. We'll look at how the goals of these covert government operations aligned with the broader results of the murders. Coincidence!?…quite possibly.

We're starting our next dive into one of the most fascinating angles of the Charles Manson story painstakingly detailed in Tom O'Neil's book, Chaos: Charles Manson, The CIA & The Secret History of The Sixties. Over twenty years of research, Tom lays out how Manson very possibly may have been part of the confirmed shenanigans the CIA was up to at the very same place and time with the very same goals the Tate-LaBianca murders achieved - prove that mind control with the help of LSD is possible, create hypno-programed assassins and demonize the flower power movement while you're at it! In Part 1, we'll cover the peculiarities of the trial as well as the Hollywood criminal underworld that seeps into the story.

To close out our series on Hate Powered Lovecraft we're to check out the Lurking Fear right behind you! This was a serialized story exploring HP's disdain for the Dutch (which is kind of refreshing) and how little he understood about lighting.

We're now going to dive into the only novel Lovecraft ever got published within his lifetime, The Shadow Over Innsmouth. Its maybe his most complete story and definitely one of his most racist. You're not worrying enough about fish-frog people!

We're going to start with maybe the most cancelled author, H. P. Lovecraft. The stories are fun it's ok to like them! He's one of the most impactful figures in modern horror fiction. As long as you understand that the guy kinda sucks.
