| 0:00.0 | Hey, deserving listeners, it's just me today. |
| 0:09.0 | I thought I would do a deep dive into the issue of repression and memory and recovered memories and child sexual abuse and allegations that come up decades later regarding |
| 0:24.7 | child sexual abuse and all that other stuff. |
| 0:29.6 | The reason why I want to talk about this is because I recently watched the documentary on |
| 0:33.9 | Netflix called The Keepers. |
| 0:37.2 | It came out 2017, directed by Ryan White. This documentary touches on |
| 0:41.8 | many interesting topics. It's, it is, it's one of the best documentaries I've ever seen. It's a, |
| 0:48.4 | it's probably seven or eight episodes or something. It is potentially better than making a murderer. It's just, it's so compelling. |
| 0:58.8 | It's, it's, it's, the, the issues brought up are actually not anything necessarily new, but the scope is so |
| 1:07.1 | big and the way that they put it all together, it's just riveting. |

| 1:36.9 | and government corruption on a huge scale. It goes into the power of institutions and the Catholic |
| 1:42.8 | Church and the legal system and the prosecution system. |
| 1:46.1 | And it goes into repressed memories. |
| 1:47.7 | And it goes into how Facebook can help people come together and advocate for things and how research and how just grassroots research can be done to actually attain, I don't know what you call it, justice. |
| 2:06.9 | And so now, having said all that, when I heard someone describe this documentary to me when I first |
| 2:13.0 | heard about it, I was like, oh, I don't want to watch that. It sounds terribly depressing and awful. |
| 2:18.9 | And it's not, it's not necessarily uplifting, but it's not as, it's not a drudgery, if that |
| 2:25.7 | makes any sense. It's actually, it's actually very interesting to watch and it's not, I didn't |
