joshtothemaxx posted:I hope Uli has an ok life today dabbing pizza grease and running really fast in video games. He seemed so pure in a bizarre way from reading about him a decade ago. uli is doing really great these days, actually a few years ago he moved out of home with his sister. it didn't work out because his sister is also nuts and they couldn't make it work, but it gave uli the taste of freedom he wanted in order to decide to take responsibility for his life since then he got a job at wal-mart as a cashier, moved to florida(!!!!) and is living independently. he's still obsessing over video games but he also takes time out to travel and go swimming and do normal human being stuff like Going Outside. he also wrote a second novel which is just as wildly bizarre as the first

Along those lines, I read about the toolbox killers, probably earlier in this thread. It's one of those things I wish I never read, it's probably the most horrible thing I've ever heard about.

luxury handset posted:uli is doing really great these days, actually At the end of the video I linked, it shows him holding a camera and happily swimming, super excited that he’s conquered his phobia of blue water (blue water kills video game characters) and he’s so frigging amped to be catching up on life.  A trio of documentary filmmakers spent some time with him around the time he had to move (his hometown of Minot, ND flooded and dozens of homes were lost), and they Kickstarted a whole documentary about him, but never delivered. People were even offering to buy the raw footage and edit it themselves just to share the Uli glory with the masses. I need to get that second novel though. The beauty of his writing is that nothing is left to chance — no metaphors or vague descriptions that could show up differently in different readers’ imagination, everything is given precise measurements and hex color codes

Carl Koppelman is an accountant, and in his free time he photoshops pictures of Doe corpses to look more lifelike so they can be identified. So far he’s helped solve 8 cases. Now imagine your accountant going home after work every day for 20 years and staring at dead people.

^Yeah, I've got a lot of respect for the Internet and Reddit detectives who actually do decent work like sitting down to go through doe cases to help match unknown dead to missing persons. It's a lot better than the hundreds of people obsessing over how they totally figured out the Maura Murray case. It's slow, thankless work but it can help a family a lot and help answer questions. littlebluellama posted:Wtf? So, they release him from the hospital into his mother's custody on schizophrenia drugs, and she "weans him off" the meds and sends him off to live somewhere else. I wonder if she was held accountable for this at all. It's even worse than her just weaning him off of them. They did that a few times in a cycle, if I recall right. Sorry to go off of memory, but on top of not having time I don't really want to dig around in the LPotL series on Chase to find the exact story. No really, NMS if you like animals. The last straw for kicking him out was killing a family cat with his bare hands, mutilating the body and pouring the blood from the body onto his face and chest while laughing in front of their Christmas tree. His parents just made him move out...Local pet stores supposedly figured out that he was buying animals just to kill them, so he was steadily blacklisted in his area. It's less red flags and more screaming sirens. It's loving insane how poorly they handled his illness. And, I'll repeat the earlier warning that you should be careful digging up details on Richard Chase's murders. The Wikipedia article is actually mercifully vague on a few of the worst details. If you listen to the LPotL series, the "gold star material" is really rough and may be worth skipping even if you think you're hardened.

Richard Chase also talked a psychiatrist into letting him out of the mental institution into which he'd been involuntarily committed. It's not really covered in the LPotL episodes because it's there was so much crazy poo poo happening in private, but he had enough self awareness to pull off a veneer of "weird but harmless", and I suspect that he got very good at the "I know that was wrong, it won't happen again" song and dance. Whether it was an act to cover up his poo poo or whether he meant it but would repeatedly cycle in and out of insanity is anyone's guess, but I personally suspect the former.

Koalas March posted:Same. I also only know "gold star" in military and "gold star gay" contexts so I'm double confused After listening to that LPotL episode, it’s essentially a trigger warning/skip ahead thing. If you sit through it, you get a gold star, like in kindergarten. It’s kinda lampshading how sitting through such material is sometimes seen as some sort of achievement, which it is not. Swap.avi in one sitting was an achievement.

Icky yucky murder stuff: Chase killed the baby and cracked their skull open like an egg and kept their brain. Also took the dead kid home with him and the police found the brain in the fridge. Also lots of descriptions of how he stabbed every organ in his female victims besides the kidneys. Dude had problems. Now simply imagine an annoying voiced guy doing an even more annoying voice impersonation to continuously make the same "I don't have enough blood in my body!" joke for two hours and you got the sum total of the two episodes.

LPotL would be so much better without Henry. And I know a few of them are (were?) goons, but don't care. Sometime in the past four or five years I went from the type of person that could at least tolerate the Leonard Lake/Charles Ng episodes, to someone who couldn't. Unsubscribed when I realized halfway through their latest episode on the Mormon Church was just as full of stereotypes and gay panic as an episode of Friends. If you're white, straight, a guy, and relatively secure in your economic standing, then it's very easy to gloss over 90% of the poo poo LPotL makes fun off. Not for me anymore. At least good true crime podcasts are a dime a dozen nowadays, so I'm not missing out on anything. Queen Combat has a new favorite as of 19:31 on Oct 12, 2019 |

If Henry is the one that always does the stupid loving voices and repeats the same two jokes through every episode, then it absolutely would be better with out him. They're occasionally funny and witty with the material they're working with, but who ever that dude is just won't let the one time he said something funny go for hours on end. I've never really listened to any of their stuff outside of the occasional random episode. Are the ghost story focused ones any better? It's Fall and that means I'm in the mood for spooky ghost stories and warm alcoholic beverages.

Nah it's the same poo poo but Henry "actually" believes most of the supernatural stuff, so it's even worse because he goes on ten minute tirades about energy and spirits and also how drunk he is at the time.

Any recommendations for well done podcasts about hauntings, myths, supernatural goings-on/etc type stuff? I know there's been a ton of recommendations in this thread of them before, but I never really paid attention before. I just started going to the gym again and listening to books on tape/podcasts seems to take my mind off actually being there better than listening to music (I also get annoyed when I miss a great part of a song I haven't heard in awhile because I was focused on counting reps or something).

Tirades about made up poo poo you believe in are cool and good. Then again, after listening to that episode, maybe not good when done by that particular person.

It's genuinely amusing how little Henry actually knows about UFO history. The research that Marcus does about specific incidents is generally accurate, but Henry legit seems to not know what CUFOS, NICAP, and Project Blue Book are/were, and when Marcus puts him on the spot, it's pretty likely he's gonna be wrong.
