37 years ago today, on January 24, 1984, 1989, serial killer Ted Bundy, was executed.

0:06.2

The night before his execution, he gave his last publicly recorded interview with the founder

0:10.6

of Focus on the Family, Dr. James Dobson. Now, a couple of months ago, and you've probably

0:15.4

already seen it at this point, I decided to put together a video that talked about the connections

0:19.7

between Dr. James Dobson and Ted Bundy.

0:22.3

I wanted to know how these two ended up in a room together and why Dobson, of all people, got this access to Bundy in his final hours.

0:29.9

I decided to reach out to an expert to talk about this, and I ended up contacting Kevin M. Sullivan.

0:36.0

He's the author of The Bundy Murders, A Comprehensive History,

0:39.3

and we ended up recording for what became a 20 or 30-minute segment that I released a couple months back.

0:46.4

But beyond that conversation, we talked for almost two hours about all things Ted Bundy.

0:52.2

He talked about some of the most surprising things he found in his research.

0:55.8

We talked about the multiple portrayals there have been in biopics about Bundy, and he talked about

1:01.0

some common information about Bundy that a lot of people get wrong. I figured it was time that I

1:06.4

share that full uncut conversation with all of you. This one goes beyond the religious abuse that I talk

1:12.0

about, although my section where I do talk about Dobson with Kevin is in this episode, but we also

1:17.2

talk about a whole lot more. So if you're fascinated by true crime or if you've ever followed

1:21.5

the Bundy's story, this episode will be really interesting to you. Like I said, it's about two hours.

1:26.9

It's our full conversation, and I hope you really appreciate it.

1:29.7

Here it is.

1:30.1

Oh, ain't nobody safe

1:47.0

All right everybody,

1:48.0

Kevin, thank you so much for welcome back to the show.
