We're halfway through our American Terrorism series with the story of cult leader David Koresh and his followers the Branch Davidians. We talk about how a religious zealot and social outcast became a loyally followed cult leader, and how another situation of manifesting fears became a fiery end to this cult and the lives of 80 people.

In our second American Terrorism episode we go into the story of Ruby Ridge. This is a big "it's complicated" story, with no easy direction to point blame, and huge mistakes made by all parties. Sunshine and Alix talk about self fulfilling prophecies and how they created exactly what they were looking for when a government went hunting for extremist white supremacists and a family tried to hide away from a government bound for causing the end of days.

This is the start of a five part series on American Terrorism. Think of it as a season 1.

In our first episode, Sunshine and Alix talk about Jewish American talk show host Alan Berg and the white supremacist terrorist organization that assassinated him.

In the finale of the crimes behind the sex offender registry, Sunshine and Alix tell the story of Adam Walsh and his legacy, paved by mourning parents John and Reve Walsh. His story implicates a couple of well known serial killers, and leads to a very well known TV show, as well as the most recent version of the sex offender registry (SORNA).

In this episode, Sunshine and Alix continue their journey through the crimes behind the Sex Offender Registry, telling the story of Megan Kanka and Megan's Law. They discuss the crime, then go into detail on the laws created and challenges, both constitutional and societal.

In Part 2 of Jacob Wetterling's story, Sunshine and Alix go through what really happened to Jacob Wetterling. Also covered are the stories of other young victims in Stearns County, and how the Stearns County Sheriff Department dropped the ball on this whole case.

In our longest episode yet (sorry and you're welcome?), Sunshine and Alix start the heavy journey into the stories behind the sex offender registry - starting with the abduction of Jacob Wetterling. In part 1, they talk about Jacob, the abduction, and the ensuing search, all leading to the creation of the first national sex offender registry law. They also take time to discuss the pros and cons of the sex offender registry and Alix tells her own story.

Sunshine and Alix finish up the true stories behind the werewolf myth. They talk about the line between man and monster and tell some seriously gruesome tales. Also, Alix continues to butcher European languages.

We're talking werewolves! Sunshine and Alix go through the earliest stories that first gave life to the man, the beast, the wolf. They discuss what makes lycanthropy a gift and what makes it a curse. But most of all, Alix has a hard time pronouncing words from all over Ye Olde Europe.

Sunshine and Alix got mail! And it's the coveted article "Our Dream House Was Haunted" from Good Housekeeping, which we're hoping contains the closest to "real" story of the Amityville haunting. We go through what we got right, what we got wrong, and what the hell?
