Greetings. Welcome to Wake the Dead. Today we have something different. Every week we've been doing a deep dive into Manchurian candidate and government mind control and drone-based mind control with our good friend Hans Utter and our guest William Ramsey.

And Hans, we would like to,

would you like to say hello to your audience as well

for the resident state?

Yes, hello, resident state listeners.

Welcome to a rather dark exploration

of a very interesting, well, interesting is maybe the wrong word but yeah but

just part of um you know regrettably we have to come to terms with the realities of these things

in order to free ourselves from them and um you know so here we are and so you know I think this ties it

together with the the mind control with the hypnosis induction with the Manchurian

candidate stuff with culture production and everything kind of and then with of course that the program to kill stuff too

and this i think this is a kind of everything comes together in this would you would you agree william

i would i think it's i think it's true i think it overlaps and i think that this is super dark it's

it's a good Halloween episode but there's a lot in here to unpack.

And a lot of the two-sided things, too, where there's a lot going on underneath the surface

behind a church facade, right?

So that's what we're going to talk about is the Hosanna church scandal that influenced

Nick Pizzolot of the writer of true

detective which for me true detective is really one of the best series ever made and uh it's there's a

lot in there to unpack it's very very well written and acted and produced but uh this is going to be

the story that it was based upon that happened in 2005, kind of in southern Louisiana, Pontchatula.

But it's a real story.
