Join Geena and Frankie for the first part in an examination of a figure long under-examined in the sphere of parapolitics: Evelle Younger. The story of a man who rose from Nebraska farmboy into the FBI, the OSS, before marrying into a California legal dynasty and roaming the halls of California power. With multiple digressions along the way examining: FBI fumbles, Imperial Japan, narcotics, reality TV, Christian Identity theology, ...
In this second installment of our series detailing the connections between Thomas Pynchon's "California Trilogy" and the Manson Family, Frankie and Geena move away from Manson and into the Cielo Drive house, where we sort through Tom O'Neill's criss-crossing stories of Reeve Whitson, Charles Tacot, and Lt. Col. Paul Tate, and try to add more to his checkered telling of these stories. From there, we move into Paul Tate's connections...
Our first episode in this examination of Pynchon's "California trilogy" focuses on Inherent Vice's myriad links to the Beach Boys and the Manson murders, with the Mafia lurking dimly in the corners. Frankie and Geena examine Pynchon's connections to the LA rock scene of the 60s, the pervasive and weird influence of surf culture, and the ways the Manson family sneak and creepy-crawl their way into the foreground of our reading of th...
Welcome to the debut of Screaming Reverberations. In our introductory episode, we discuss what the show is not, what it will be, our goals in making this thing, and the novels and themes we will explore in the immediate upcoming episodes. We also go over (hopefully) helpful advice about tackling the work of Pynchon and explain our Doc Sportello-inspired "paranoid" approach to excavating it.

DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
