Long time ago, on this day, a guy was kidnapped, drug behind a car until his kneecaps came off, and then hanged to death. It was one brutal night in a much bigger saga we tell in our podcast. It's immodest to say, but our trailer still gives me the chills. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas…

August 1. The anniversary of Frank Little's obscene murder, its mystery, and the beginning of an unjust crackdown on American voices. Read abt the significance of the numbers pinned to my uncle's grave. @deathwestpod @TheJohnsonPost @TBone_Slim #iww #butte janelittlebotkin.com/2019/07…

We are BACK! After a deep dive into McCoy's early life, the connection b/w Mormonism and outlaws (yes there is one!), and a visit to Provo where McCoy hatched his plot, we bring you to the story of how McCoy GETS AWAY. Give it a listen! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Don't do this, podcast people.
This podcast series is a shameless rip-off of my @TheAtlantic story from last April. No credit is given and the creator did zero original reporting. He even mispronounces the main character's name through all 8 episodes. (It's "kuh-SEE," not "KEY-see.") 🧵 open.spotify.com/show/36jBtv…

I really enjoyed the first season of @deathwestpod, and what they've put out of the second so far.

Thanks!
Replying to @jessicashortall
The @deathwestpod is currently doing a season on DB Cooper and his parallels with another skyjacker. So far it’s been a great retelling of the Cooper story.
