Victims
Three pipe bombs exploded in Salt Lake County in 1985, killing two people. Behind the murders lay a vast forgery scheme aimed at dozens of other victims, most prominently the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Mark Hofmann, a master forger, went to prison for the murders. He had bilked the church, document dealers, and collectors of hundreds of thousands of dollars over several years while attempting to alter Mormon history. Other false documents of Americana still circulate. The crimes garnered intense media interest, spawning books, TV and radio programs, and myriad newspaper and magazine articles. Victims is a thoughtful corrective to the more sensationalized accounts. More impo...

A funny and entertaining look at outlandish ideas, wacky religious cults and the extremes of human beliefs, both in Australia and overseas.

Municipal Larceny Vs Steve the Barber
"Municipal Larceny vs Steve the Barber" begins with a 170-year history of Oroville, California. This fascinating historical highlight reel covers four economic booms: the gold rush, railroad construction, building of the Oroville Dam, and the repair of a failed spillway which had triggered the evacuation of 180,000 people. Woven throughout this historical record are entertaining tales of Steve Christensen's upbringing in Oroville, from pre-school in the 40's to the Covid shutdown 75 years later. Spiced with sardonic barbershop humor, we see why it is wise to keep a close eye on the shenanigans of City Hall and how one barber battled his city to defeat proposed tax increases.
