This WreckageARMED LOVE 13: White Panther Party w/ DJ PreSkoolIn 1968, Huey P. Newton told an interviewer that whites who wanted to support the Black Panthers should create the White Panther Party.

WILDCIDEConspiracy: Who Bombed Judi Bari?A car bomb. A forest war. And an activist caught in the middle. When Earth First! organizer Judi Bari was nearly killed by a bomb planted beneath the driver’s seat of her Subaru, the FBI didn’t hunt for the bomber—they arrested her. What followed was a decades-long battle between environmentalists, the logging industry, and law enforcement, marked by conspiracy, smear campaigns, and civil rights violations.
In this episode, we dig into the unsolved car bombing that silenced a voice—but only briefly. We explore the psychological toll of being framed, the sociopolitical war over Californ...

Cryptic Soup PodDellen Millard, Canadian Serial Killer?Welcome to Cryptic Soup, your after-dark podcast. In this week's episode, join Thena and Kylee for the story of Dellen Millard and Mark Smich. Dellen was cold and calculated, thinking he was going to get away with a triple murder. Laura Babcock was listed as a missing person, Tim Bosma was missing, and Wayne Millard was a suicide. Dellen was innocent right? Just someone who was in the wrong place at the wrong time, because he wasn’t sloppy enough to make these kind of mistakes… or so he said.

Crime FamilyS04E09: DELLEN MILLARD (CANADIAN SERIAL KILLER MINI-SERIES, PART I)Welcome to the four-part miniseries on Canadian serial killers.

Dellen had a loving family, lots of opportunities and was wealthy growing up- but all that didn't stop him from becoming a murderer. If it wasn't for his arrogance and a few missteps he may have gotten away with it all and maybe even continued to kill. This is the story of a man who eluded capture by police until he already took the lives of three innocent people and how pure evil...

Over a decade later, not even an official cause of death has been released leaving a sense of uneasiness looming over the island. Chantel Gillade was only 28 years old when her life was tragically stolen from her. Her death sparked rumours of connections with a Canadian serial killer, but no suspect has been named in this case, over 2 decades later.FIND US ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Instagram:
