Howdy All!

I said I was aiming for a Patreon premiere of the Ramsey video (I'm thinking The Endless Riddle of JonBenét Ramsey could be a cool title but not sure if the use of the word "riddle" is 100 percent correct) on December 20th but that it would be tough. The good news is I think I'm on schedule. The bad news is it's still going to be tough, lol. I will let you know in advance if it looks like it will be significantly longer than that. If you don't hear from me and it doesn't com...

Bits n Bobs

I said I would try to find some tid bits as a "thanks for the support" during the featureless month and thankfully I have found them!

First one isn't technically an exclusive but chances are you haven't seen it - An interview I did with Twitcher WickedSupreme a couple of months ago. We went for nearly 2 hours and stayed on the topic of the channel pretty much the entire time so if you're a hardcore fan you should enjoy it. Sound quality is poor because my mic wasn't close enough to my f...

The Scandalous Saga of Anthony Weiner

Enjoy your early premiere everyone, thanks as always for the support! I view this as sort of a spiritual sequel to A Tale of Two Narcissists, so hopefully fans of that one really enjoy this. I apologies if there are ads on this - there's an auto copyright claim I'm trying to dispute. If there are any please use ad blocker.

Another thing I need to say as a heads up is there will be quite a stretch between this and the next video. The reason being my next project is supposed to be an abso...

Memory Wars Bonuses

Here are a couple of extras from The Memory Wars episode

Interview with Becky Davenport 

Becky works in her personal time with people who have come to retract  accounts of abuse that stemmed from therapy, and acts as somewhat of a  video archivist for the now disbanded False Memory Syndrome Foundation.  She provided several of the clips featured in the video.

The Memory Wars

Enjoy your early premiere everyone! Interested in feedback on this one. I'm proud of it, but it's a bit different from usual so possibly wont be everyone's cup of tea. I imagine people who really liked Lie of the Polygraph and the legal talk part of the Thomas Chan video will dig it.

The Only One Who Deserved to Stay - The Case of David Bain

Enjoy your early premiere everyone, thanks as always for the support!

SOME SPOILERS BELOW

This one’s a bit different from usual as there’s not the sort of raw footage in the Bain case I normally have to work with. I’m quite proud of how it turned out though so I hope you like it!

Also, if you find the case fascinating...A LOT got left on the cutting room floor. If you want to go much deeper on it there’s a great podcast and book called “Black Hands” by Martin van...

Conspiracies: October Surprise and The Clinton Body Count [Casting Broad]

For this bonus I thought I’d “animate” a bit from an old podcast that pretty much no one has heard but I’ve always thought had a lot of good yarns on it. While I’m posting this, I thought I’d gauge enthusiasm on a rough idea I’ve got for a video series - “Conspiracy Series”

Basically what it would be is a series of videos dedicated to Conspiracies that are far enough out there that they’re still not mainstream opinion - but are plausible enough as to not fall into th...

George Floyd and Derek Chauvin - As it Happened and How it was Argued

Thanks again so much for your patience and support everyone! Here is your early Premiere!

I’d be really interested in feedback on this one, especially in terms of the length. I know it’s long but after several shave downs I think this is about as short as I can get it while faithfully conveying the core arguments of the prosecution and defence teams. Let me know if you felt there were areas it dragged though. Maybe there will be parts I can find to cut down a bit further and this wi...

Hey Guys!

The next video "George Floyd and Derek Chauvin - As it Happened and How it was Argued" is coming along very nicely but is still probably several days to a week away. I really like to get one main video and some kind of bonus out each month but this particular one has just been a real grind to put together for a variety of reasons. Thank you as always for your patience and support.

I figured in the meantime what I could do as a thank you is a good ol' fashioned Ask Me Any...

The Lie of the Polygraph [Directors Cut]

Here's how the latest vid was REALLY supposed to be seen!

There really aren't many differences so if you've already seen the edited release and aren't up for a re-watch of the whole thing right now, the changes are at the beginning, at about 15:40 and 1:02:40.

Cool to see so many new people come in! Thanks so much for your support! Here is the full interview I conducted with with Doug Williams that I used to cut in to the latest ep. Hope people find it interesting, he's lived one hell of a life!

The Lie of the Polygraph

NOW here it is!

Sorry about yesterdays hiccup. Keep an eye on the YT channel because I am looking in to whether there's a way I can put out the original version. Don't worry, you're not getting an inferior product - all that's been taken out is essentially an extended gag. The fact it only took a day (even with tech issues causing production hell) I think speaks to how minor the change is and why the original should have been considered fair use.

The video in the main is complet...

Don't Talk to Cops (Matt Orchard on JCS, True Crime Loser and Stephen McDaniel)

This is a radio bit I did before starting my channel, I thought fans of JCS and TCL might get a kick out of it. Let me know what you think of more casual content like this! If it's well received it will give me room to make more exclusive content as this sort of thing is much quicker to turn around than a serious 50 - 90 minute documentaries.

Small Outtake from The Haggard/Edwards Episode

This is just a tiny piece from the Haggard/Edwards ep that I took out because I thought it was too much of a tangent and I needed to just keep the story going.

Sandy Melgar Ending Rant (No Music)

For anyone wondering what's being said as the music comes up at the end of The Curious Case of Sandy Melgar.

BTW, some people have wondered what's being muttered very quietly at around 38 20 in the Basil Borutski video (https://youtu.be/-RTyowilWgM?t=2298). The answer is "Jesus Christ, this fucking guy..."

The Case of Anthony Palma (But Kizzume is on vox)

Trippy, huh? It's a bit longer than the published YT version because I hadn't written a couple of "bridging" VOs which I never got Kizz to do.
