Summary

DEEP DIVE - On this episode we look at the pseudo religious, psycho sexual, drug induced, identity erasing cult that graduated into a murderous gang that sought to ignite a race war to end all society in an event known as Helier Skelter and became the focal point of the vilification of the hippy movement at the end of the 1960s when the deaths of a Hollywood Hills house of celebrities brought one name to the forefront of mainstream media, Charles Manson.The tale of Charlie Manson and his 'family' runs as a cautionary tale of the dangers of the desperate desire for notoriety and the relinquishing of one's mind in order to feel included and protected. We'll examine the factors of cults and their charismatic leaders and the all too familiar hallmarks of mind control and the possible link to CIA mind control experiments.________________________This podcast is supported by the generous donations of the wonderful folks over at Patreon.
