0:00.0	The atrocities of World War II and Holocaust in itself demonstrate the most horrific
0:06.4	cruelties amongst humans one can ever conceive. The millions of lives tortured, starved,
0:14.3	and who ultimately perished at the hands of Nazis will forever be a stain on human history.
0:21.2	Some of the most infamous names of evil, ultimately responsible, or
0:26.0	Hitchler, Mengele, Hess, Himmler, and Goebles just to name a few. However, not all of these
0:32.8	evil monsters were male or even members of the SS. Ilsa Koch may be the most appraved woman to
0:41.2	ever walk the earth, gaining the title of The Bitch of Buchenwald, and after this story,
0:48.0	you'll never look at a tattoo or lampshade the same again.
0:57.7	All right guys, that is the rock band Sabaton with their hit single, Up Rising. That song is about
1:19.1	when the Nazis invaded Poland. And remember if you're listening to this, you owe me 100 Nazi scouts
1:27.0	I'm just kidding. Let's make it 200, Joey. Taken from the heads of 100 dead Nazis.
1:33.5	Or you will die trying. All right, so tonight's story was one of those stories that I was researching

1:53.1	G-H-O-U-L, and it is about the life and times of Edgene. Woo! And I know I said I would do episodes
2:00.8	related to that, and I am. I just put out the podcast way earlier than I thought. So I'm putting the
2:07.7	link to that podcast in the show notes as well as on talkmurder.com. Be sure to subscribe to that and
2:13.9	give me a review. The next episode will be out this Thursday or Friday, so you don't want to miss
2:20.4	that. It's a four-part series based entirely on Edgene's life and the atrocities that he committed.
2:28.6	It's very fascinating. I put a lot of research into the podcast, and I think you guys really like it.
2:34.6	It's very well done. I have to say, I listened to it the other day when it came out, and
2:40.4	John, you did a phenomenal job researching, and it's just it's not like another podcast that you
