In 1971, the Uruguayan Old Christian's rugby team was flying to Chile to defend their most recent championship win a year earlier. In the air, spirits were high as almost the entire plane consisted of players, family, friends, and fans. However things took a turn for the worse, when the pilot made a fatal mistake. After hitting extremely rough air the plane was flying only feet away from the mountain tops. The pilots tried to regain altitude, but the plane crashed, tearing off both wings and the entire tail of the plane. What was left of the plane hurtled down the slope of a mountain before coming to a stop. The survivors were left stranded with no choice but to consume the bodies of the dead to stay alive.

On the way back, Julian was looking for some roadkill that he saw on the way in so that he could get a closer look at what it was. He stopped at the end of the road, asking Carolynne if it was ok if he went to look. She agreed as long as he came back quickly.

Right before she was about to get out of the car, she saw a man dressed in all black sprinting toward the car in her rearview mirror.

In Newburgh, New York, cousins JJ and Pappito were having fun with their friend Cathy in the snow the day before Thanksgiving. There was a snowbank that was 8 feet tall in a nearby parking lot, and a snow fort was being built. As you might imagine, it was lit. That was until their parents noticed that JJ and Pappito had not come home before their curfew. Mild concern turned into an intense panic as the parents realized that the kids were nowhere to be found. It was especially concerning because Newburgh had one of the highest rates of crime in New York state, and a five year old had turned up dead in a suitcase not long ago. The police were called and the K9 unit shortly after to turn the neighborhood upside down to find JJ and Pappito.

Unsurprisingly, the shooutout does not end well for the SLA, but Bill, Emily, and Patty continue to escape capture for over a year after this. This party crosses state lines, and by party I mean domestic terrorism. It culminates in their most grotesque forms of "activism" with a new cast of characters. Will anyone be held accountable?

68: Episode 68: The Tulsa Race Massacre

 On the morning of May 31st 1921, 19-year-old Dick Rowland, a Black shoeshiner, was accused of assaulting Sarah Page, the 17-year-old white elevator operator of the Drexel Building. After being arrested, a white mob formed outside of the county courthouse, where he was being held, with the intention of taking Rowland out and murdering him. The black citizens of Tulsa knew that Rowland was innocent and that they needed to do something in order to keep him alive. But when the mixture of the angry white men, combined with the concerned black men, violence broke out.  Over 18 hours a white mob attacked residents, homes and businesses in the predominantly black Greenwood neighborhood of Tulsa, Oklahoma, destroying everything in their path.  If you'd like to make a donation to Greenwood Rising or to the BLM movement check out the links below: Greenwood Rising: https://www.greenwoodrising.org/support-1 BLM: https://blacklivesmatter.com/ Other BLM Charities/Fundraisers: https://blacklives.help/?gclid=Cj0KCQiA6NOPBhCPARIsAHAy2zA3PxN1I3xYkHaIfejQvEDQVXerMWmGzAwa9tc-nY_7kpozAww_8W0aAuuXEALw_wcB Ad free early episodes, and an extra episode a month --> Patreon Instagram Tik Tok ChatAholic Inspiring conversations with one aim to help others, we all have a story Listen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify Support the show
