Disturbing History

He was the mouthpiece of God to ten thousand followers. To the FBI, he was a face on the Ten Most Wanted list. And to a Nevada state trooper working a dark stretch of Interstate Fifteen, he was just a nervous man in a red Escalade with a bad paper tag and a pulse he couldn't hide.

This week I'm taking you inside the rise and ruin of the FLDS church, from its roots in the polygamy crisis of the eighteen hundreds to the isolated fortress town of Short Creek, where one man came to control every marriage, every home, and every family on both sides of a state line. I'll walk you through the botched 1953 raid that bought the church fifty years of immunity, the doctrine of one-man rule that loaded the gun, and the accountant's son who picked it up.

Warren Jeffs banned laughter, expelled hundreds of teenage boys into the desert, married girls as young as twelve, and recorded all of it, because a man who believes his every act is scripture archives his crimes as revelation. Then a fourteen-year-old bride named Elissa Wall grew up, walked into a courtroom, and started tearing the whole empire down.

But this story doesn't end with a life sentence in 2011. Warren Jeffs is still issuing revelations from a Texas prison cell, his followers are still scattered across hidden compounds, and as of this recording, two Idaho teenagers who vanished into that network last summer are still missing.

This was never a story about religion. It's a story about power, about what happens when nobody is willing to look, and about the survivors who finally made the world see.

Everything in this episode comes from court records, sworn testimony, and documented reporting. The FLDS is not the mainstream LDS church, which abandoned polygamy over a century ago and has condemned this group repeatedly.

In the winter of nineteen fourteen, a five-year-old girl named May Pierstorff stood on a train platform in Grangeville, Idaho, with fifty-three cents in postage stamps pinned to her coat. Her parents had just mailed her to her grandmother.

In this episode, I dig into one of the strangest true stories in American history, the brief window between nineteen thirteen and nineteen fifteen when poor rural families discovered that the brand new parcel post service would accept a child at the counter, weigh her like a crate of apples, and deliver her, and the federal government had never written a rule saying otherwise.I follow every documented case, from baby James Beagle, mailed to his grandmother in Ohio for fifteen cents just days after parcel post launched, to six-year-old Edna Neff, who traveled seven hundred and twenty miles from Pensacola to Virginia in the care of railway mail clerks, to little Maud Smith, whose forty-mile trip through the Kentucky hills finally triggered the federal investigation that ended the practice.

Along the way we look at everything else Americans crammed into the mail in those first wild years, the eggs and the bees and the day-old chicks, the man in Utah who mailed an entire bank building fifty pounds of brick at a time, and the nineteen twenty ruling in which the Post Office was forced to declare that children did not qualify as harmless live animals.

This is a gentler episode than most, and not one child in it was ever harmed. What makes it disturbing is what it reveals, a country where train fare was out of reach for farm families, where the rural mail carrier was the most trusted man anyone knew, and where poverty could turn a child into a package because the bureaucracy had not yet decided otherwise. As a former cop, I have seen what people do when a system leaves a gap.

This is the story of families who found one, read the rate table more carefully than the men who wrote it, and stamped their children.

Before the Food and Drug Administration, before warning labels, before anyone had to prove a medicine was safe or even admit what was inside it, America ran on the bottle.

This episode opens the cabinet on the patent medicine era, the long stretch of years when a quarter and a clipped newspaper advertisement could buy a family a cure-all that promised relief from nerves, weakness, pain, sleeplessness, women's complaints, and almost anything else a body could suffer, and then it asks the only question that matters, which is what those beautiful bottles actually held. We start in a winter farmhouse with a crying baby and a spoonful of morphine, then trace the machinery of the whole trade, the secret formulas that were never really patented, the newspapers bought and silenced by advertising money, the torchlit medicine shows rolling out of town before dawn, the fake Indian remedies of the Kickapoo Medicine Company, and Clark Stanley's famous snake oil that a federal laboratory found contained no snake at all.

From there we look hard at the soothing syrups that dosed infants with morphine until doctors gave them the name baby killers, at the women's tonics that hid hard liquor and harder drugs behind a kindly face, at the electric belts sold to ashamed men, and at the mercury and arsenic ladled into cures for the dying. We follow cocaine into children's toothache drops and into a famous Atlanta soda fountain, and heroin into a cough remedy sold by a household name, and we end up at the glowing horror of Radithor and the millionaire whose jaw rotted off his face.

Then comes the reckoning, the muckraker Samuel Hopkins Adams and his Great American Fraud, the government chemist Harvey Wiley and his Poison Squad, the Pure Food and Drug Act of nineteen oh six and the two enormous holes that law left open, and finally the raspberry-flavored disaster of nineteen thirty-seven that killed one hundred five people, many of them children, and forced the country at last to demand that a medicine be proven safe before it could be sold.

 It is a true crime story with no single murderer and a body count no one will ever fully tally, because the weapon was hope, the killers printed kind words on the label, and nearly every protection we take for granted today was written after the fact, in answer to the dead.

The word propaganda began as something holy. In sixteen twenty-two a committee of cardinals in Rome coined it to mean the spreading of the faith, and in this episode I follow that single word as it curdles across the bloodiest century human beings have ever managed to produce.

This is the story of how mass persuasion got built, who built it, and the deeply uncomfortable truth that the most murderous propaganda machine in history did not invent its methods from nothing. It borrowed them, and some of what it borrowed, it borrowed from us.

We start with Edward Bernays, the nephew of Sigmund Freud and the father of public relations, the man who sold cigarettes to American women as torches of freedom and who learned to his horror that Joseph Goebbels kept his books on a shelf in Berlin. From there we trace the dress rehearsal of yellow journalism and the sinking of the Maine, the Creel Committee of the First World War, and the corpse-factory lie that taught a whole generation to disbelieve the real death camps when the reports finally came.

Then we walk straight into the Nazi machine itself, told without flinching and without sensationalism, through Goebbels and the big lie, the People's Receiver that put the Führer's voice in every German kitchen, Leni Riefenstahl's beautiful and monstrous films, the Cathedral of Light, the Reichstag fire, the cleaned-up Berlin Olympics, and the quiet horror of the language of euphemism, the soft clean words laid over genocide so the clerks could do the work without ever naming it.And then I turn the camera around, onto the country that crossed an ocean to destroy that machine and built machines of its own.

 The racist campaign against the Japanese that walked off the screen and into the internment camps. The permanent Cold War apparatus, the secret funding of broadcasters and magazines, Bernays and the Guatemala coup, the Church Committee, and COINTELPRO, including the letter the Federal Bureau of Investigation wrote trying to drive Doctor King to suicide.

The Gulf of Tonkin, the Pentagon Papers, the incubator testimony of nineteen ninety, the weapons of mass destruction that were never there, the Mission Accomplished banner, the generals on your television secretly reading the Pentagon's lines, and the wall that quietly came down in twenty twelve.I want to be clear about something, because the cheap version of this story gets it wrong. America is not Nazi Germany, the difference in scale is the size of the abyss, and the men who died to stop the real thing deserve better than that lazy equation.

The machine was never a German machine. It was a human machine, the levers work on all of us, and the most disturbing history in this whole account is not the history of the men who lied. It is the history of how gratefully the rest of us believed them, and how that same machine now lives in your pocket and sleeps on your nightstand.

On the night of June 9, 1912, in the small railroad town of Villisca, Iowa, someone walked into the home of Josiah and Sarah Moore and killed all eight people sleeping inside. The parents. Their four children, ages 5 to 11. And two young sisters, Lena and Ina Stillinger, who had only come over after a church program for a sleepover that should have ended with them riding home.

The weapon was an axe taken from the family's own woodpile. The mirrors were covered, a lamp was left burning low with its chimney removed, a slab of bacon was found on the floor beside the bodies, and the doors were locked from the inside when a neighbor noticed the next morning that the chickens hadn't been let out.In this episode, I walk Villisca the way I'd walk any scene, as a former cop with 16 years behind the badge, and I'll tell you up front that this one has bothered me for a long time.

We go through the contaminated crime scene that a whole town trampled before anyone secured it, and the suspects who each wore the shadow of this thing and never quite fit it: a powerful Iowa state senator with a business grudge against Joe Moore, a suspected serial killer named Blackie Mansfield, and a strange traveling preacher, Reverend George Kelly, who confessed in detail and then took it all back.

Then there's the theory I keep circling, the one that ties Villisca to a chain of nearly identical family murders along the railroad lines of 1911 and 1912, from Colorado Springs to Kansas to Illinois, and the idea of a single man riding the rails who came in on the tracks, did his work in the dark, and was three states away before the bodies were even found.

Eight people. Six of them children. A house that became a nightmare with the doors locked from the inside, and a killer who, by every sign, stayed in that house for hours before he walked out and disappeared. More than a hundred years later, we still don't have his name. This is one of the most disturbing unsolved murders in American history, and this is the closest the evidence lets us get.

In the high desert of Nevada, about twenty miles south of the town of Lovelock, a dry limestone cave holds one of the richest archaeological records in the American West — and one of the most stubborn legends in American fringe history: red-haired, cannibal giants, supposedly eight to ten feet tall, dug out of its floor and then hidden away by the authorities.

In this episode I take a hard, evidence-first look at where that story actually comes from, and why the truth underneath it is more disturbing than any giant ever was.We trace the legend from Northern Paiute oral tradition and Sarah Winnemucca's 1883 book, the first ever published in English by a Native American woman, through the 1911 guano-mining operation that first disturbed the cave, and into the careful archaeology of Llewellyn Loud and Mark Harrington, whose work pulled ten thousand artifacts and the famous two-thousand-year-old tule duck decoys out of that floor.

Then I follow the giants forward, into newspaper sensationalism, tourist-trap hucksterism, the Smithsonian-coverup conspiracy, and finally into my own Bigfoot world, where Lovelock is still passed around as proof of Sasquatch.Along the way we separate what's documented from what's invented. The real six-foot-six mummy at the root of it all. What Sarah Winnemucca did and did not write. Why ancient dark hair turns red in the ground. The cattle bones that got mistaken for giants.

And the nineteenth-century Mound Builder myth that the whole "giants ruled America" industry was quietly built on. As a longtime cryptid researcher, I make the case that Lovelock isn't evidence for Bigfoot at all, and that citing it does real damage, both to honest research and to the memory of the people whose history got strip-mined to build the legend.Were giants found in Nevada, or did America turn Indigenous history into monster lore?

What happens when the most powerful man in the world asks his own government a direct question and still can't get a straight answer? When Bill Clinton took office in 1993, he wanted to know two things: who really killed John Kennedy, and whether the United States was sitting on proof that we aren't alone. He handed the assignment to his friend Webb Hubbell, the third-ranking official at the Justice Department, and Hubbell went looking with the access of a man who reported straight to the President. He came back with a wall.

This episode traces that wall across thirty years, from a Justice Department office to the steps of the Capitol this June. Along the way we get into what Area 51 actually is, the dry lakebed at Groom Lake where the U-2 and the F-117 were tested in secret, and the boring true reason the government let people believe in saucers rather than admit what was really flying at sixty thousand feet. We follow the billionaire Laurance Rockefeller as he lobbies the Clinton White House for three years to crack the files open and gets nowhere. 

We sit with the Air Force's own Project Mogul explanation for Roswell, the crash-test dummies, and the detail that should bother you more than any of it, the government records that were simply destroyed before anyone could audit them. We watch Governor Fife Symington defuse the Phoenix Lights with a man in a rubber alien suit, then admit years later that he'd seen the thing himself. And we put the Kennedy files next to the UFO question to show how a law with a deadline and a presumption of disclosure can still take sixty years to pry a secret loose.

Then we follow the thread into the present, through the 2017 New York Times story that exposed the Pentagon's AATIP program, the Navy's Tic Tac and the East Coast sightings, David Grusch's sworn testimony, the watered-down UAP Disclosure Act, AARO's finding of no verifiable evidence, and the June 2026 press conference where bipartisan lawmakers stood up and said the same thing Hubbell wrote in 1997. They asked, and nobody would tell them.

This isn't a story about a president shaking hands with an alien. It's a story about compartmentalization, special access programs, and whether the line between elected authority and permanent secrecy runs where the Constitution says it does, or somewhere lower and quieter than we'd like to admit.

Walt Disney built the most trusted brand in the world, and he built it on top of a story the company has spent eighty years hoping you would never hear. Behind the castle, the cardigan, and the warm Missouri voice was a workplace that tore itself apart, a founder who treated a fair-pay dispute as a foreign conspiracy, and a man whose grudges ended up wired into the machinery of the Red Scare.

 This episode strips off the sanitized image and looks at the documented record of Walter Elias Disney as the complicated, contradictory figure he actually was.We start with the 1941 Disney animators' strike, the single most consequential event in the studio's early history and the one you will not find in the official mythology.

After the financial wounds of Pinocchio and Fantasia in 1940, Disney workers who earned as little as 12 dollars a week while stars pulled 200 to 300 walked off the job over pay, screen credit, and the right to organize. We trace how Walt fired his greatest animator, Art Babbitt, the creator of Goofy, how a 315-to-4 strike vote put hundreds of his own cartoonists on a picket line at the Burbank gate, and how the founder of the studio nearly came to blows with Babbitt on a public street before the whole thing ended with Walt losing on every point.

From there we follow the line that runs from that picket line straight to Washington. We cover Disney's role as a founder of the Motion Picture Alliance for the Preservation of American Ideals, his friendly-witness testimony before the House Un-American Activities Committee on October 24, 1947, and the names he gave Congress, including animator David Hilberman, whom Walt flagged in part for having no religion.

We put union organizer Herbert Sorrell in his real context, the man Walt branded a communist who actually broke with the Communist Party to lead the violent 1945 Hollywood Black Friday riot, and we connect the dots to the Hollywood blacklist, the Waldorf Statement, and the careers it ruined.

We then work through the decades of FBI files on Walt Disney, the 1954 designation that made him a Special Agent in Charge Contact, and the long-running fight over what that relationship with J. Edgar Hoover actually was, separating the documented record from the disputed claims in Marc Eliot's biography. 


Finally, we take the antisemitism question head-on, weighing the 1938 Leni Riefenstahl visit and the harshest accusations against the rebuttals from biographer Neal Gabler and the people who knew him, and we refuse the easy verdict in either direction.

This is not the cartoon-villain Walt and it is not Uncle Walt either. It is the evidence-first account of a genuine artist and a frightened, controlling man who happened to be the same person, and a reminder that the brightest brand on earth was built directly over a fight it never wanted you to see.

Listener discretion is advised for discussion of political persecution, labor violence, and historical bigotry.

The murder of John F. Kennedy in Dallas on November twenty-second, nineteen sixty-three remains the most contested crime in American history, and at the center of the contest stands the man who became president before Air Force One left Texas soil.

This episode of Disturbing History takes on the theory that refuses to die, the claim that Lyndon Baines Johnson helped engineer the assassination of the president he served. It is, by design, a different kind of episode. The show deals in facts, but this is one of those rare cases where documented fact and unproven conspiracy run straight into each other, and rather than pretend otherwise, this episode walks the listener into that collision and lets them see exactly where one ends and the other begins.

The story moves through the solid ground first, the timeline of the assassination, the arrest of Lee Harvey Oswald, the silencing of Oswald by Jack Ruby on live television, and the swearing-in of Johnson on the tarmac at Love Field beside a widow still wearing her husband's blood. From there it lays out the two official answers the United States government has given, the Warren Commission's lone-gunman conclusion of nineteen sixty-four and the House Select Committee on Assassinations' finding in nineteen seventy-nine that Kennedy was probably killed as the result of a conspiracy, a conclusion built on acoustic evidence that later collapsed under scientific review.

That official contradiction is the soil everything else grows in.Then comes the case against Johnson at full strength. His ruthlessness and ambition. The Bobby Baker and Billie Sol Estes scandals closing in on him in the fall of sixty-three. The reported press scrutiny of his fortune. The Texas oil and defense networks behind his career.

And the specific, named accusations that have circulated for decades, the Madeleine Brown account of a gathering at the Murchison mansion the night before the killing, the Billie Sol Estes claims naming Mac Wallace as Johnson's triggerman, and the Barr McClellan fingerprint allegation that briefly aired on the History Channel before independent historians rejected it and the network pulled the episode.

 Each claim is given fairly and then tested against the record, and each, examined honestly, fails to make the jump from story to proof, including in the roughly eighty thousand pages of long-secret files released to the public in twenty twenty-five, which revealed a great deal about Cold War covert operations and nothing that implicated Johnson.

The episode closes where it must, in the uncomfortable middle. Johnson is the man who gained the most. Johnson is not, on any evidence that has ever held up, the man shown to have done it. Both are true. Drawing on an investigator's hard rule that motive is where a case begins and never where it ends, the host lays the documented facts and the unproven beliefs side by side and hands the verdict to the listener.

This is the dark heart of twentieth-century American history, an open wound the country never fully closed, and tonight the ending belongs to you.

Ulysses S. Grant left the White House without a fortune, never took a bribe, and never sold an office, yet his administration produced more documented corruption than any presidency of the nineteenth century.

This episode of Disturbing History continues our series on the dark history of presidential politics by walking straight into the Gilded Age and the Whiskey Ring, the federal liquor-tax fraud that siphoned millions of dollars out of the United States Treasury while a depression squeezed ordinary Americans, and traces how the trail of stolen tax money ran all the way to the desk of Grant's private secretary, General Orville Babcock, in the office adjoining the president's own.

We open with the central question that runs through every scandal here. What happens when the honest man in the room is the reason the corruption survives? Drawing on sixteen years of law enforcement experience, your host lays out the pattern that connects Grant to crooked bosses and clean ones alike, the boss who stakes his spotless reputation on a guilty subordinate and makes that subordinate untouchable. Grant kept score on loyalty the way other men kept score on money, a habit forged during his years of failure before the Civil War, his binge drinking and resignation from the Army, the Hardscrabble farm, the firewood sold on St. Louis street corners, and the clerk's job in his brother's Galena leather store.

Once a man was inside the wall of Grant's trust, almost nothing could throw him out, and the con men of the era learned to exploit that vulnerability like published exploit code.The episode follows that pattern through the Black Friday gold panic of September eighteen sixty-nine, where Jay Gould and Jim Fisk attempted to corner the New York gold market by buying access to Grant through his own brother-in-law Abel Corbin, and the scheme collapsed only when Grant ordered the Treasury to sell.

From there we cover Credit Mobilier, the transcontinental railroad construction-company fraud that dragged Vice President Schuyler Colfax, future president James Garfield, and roughly two dozen members of Congress into the mud, the falling-out among thieves that exposed it, and the censure of Oakes Ames that closed the books while the rest of Washington walked. We set the political stage of the Panic of eighteen seventy-three, the spoils system, and the Salary Grab before turning to the main event.

The Whiskey Ring itself gets the full treatment. We explain the seventy-cents-a-gallon liquor tax, the economics of crooked whiskey, and how supervisor John McDonald built a parallel tax system across St. Louis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Cincinnati, and Peoria, with gaugers and storekeepers and collectors all lying in the same direction, campaign money flowing into Grant's eighteen seventy-two reelection effort, and cipher telegram warnings arriving from Washington signed with the alias Sylph. We follow Treasury Secretary Benjamin Bristow and his solicitor Bluford Wilson as they ran a covert investigation against their own department, counting grain in and barrels out at the railyards to build a shadow ledger, and we cover the May tenth, eighteen seventy-five raids, the two hundred thirty indictments, and the hundred and ten convictions.

Then we watch Grant's response to the indictment of Babcock, the order banning plea deals, the firing of special prosecutor John Henderson, and the sworn deposition the sitting president gave in defense of his private secretary, the only time in American history a president has been deposed as a witness in a criminal prosecution.The back half surveys the rest of the wreckage. The Belknap affair, where Secretary of War William Belknap raced to resign ninety minutes ahead of his unanimous impeachment over the Fort Sill post-tradership kickbacks, with George Custer's complaints riding off toward the Little Bighorn under Grant's anger.

The Interior Department under Columbus Delano, the Navy Department under George Robeson, Attorney General George Williams and the carriage, the New York Custom House and Roscoe Conkling, and the battalion of Grant relatives on the federal payroll. We close with Grant's final message to Congress and its famous line about errors of judgment rather than intent, the Grant and Ward Ponzi collapse that left the general with eighty dollars in his pocket, and the dying race to finish his Personal Memoirs that restored Julia to comfort and secured his place in American letters.

We also give Reconstruction its due, the Klan prosecutions and the Fifteenth Amendment, because the man who sent his deposition to defend Babcock and the man who sent the cavalry after the Klan were operating on the same code all the way down.
