TSFU PRESENTS: Psychotic Psychology- Ep. 5: MK Ultra Part I Mar 12, 2024

Show notes

We saved the mother of all fucked up psychology studies for last... MKUltra. During the early Cold War and Korean Wars, in the late '40s and early '50s, the CIA became a super paranoid and obsessed spy agency, working on the notion that communists might have perfected some kind of a drug or technique that could control the human mind. Project MKUltra lasted through the '50s and '60s (at least that's what they want us to think) and killed many people and destroyed countless lives.Wait... the CIA is shady AF? Yep, and you probably didn't know just how unscrupulous until now.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH: Serial Killer- Madame Delphine LaLaurie, Torturer and Murderer of Enslaved People Feb 26, 2024

Show notes

TW: This week we discuss the brutal murder and torture of enslaved persons in the U.S. in the 1800s. Upon further research (unfortunately after the recording of the episode), Ash found that "slave" is no longer a politically correct term, but it IS used throughout the episode. If that word or the subject matter is particularly upsetting to you, you might want to skip this one.
Happy Black History Month! This definitely isn't a happy story, but this history is very important. This week we travel back to 2021 (and then the 1800s), where Ash, former co-host Cameron Dexter and former audio engineer Evette Darensbourg discuss infamous socialite and serial torturer and murderer of enslaved people, Delphine LaLaurie.
You may know who today's story is about if you're a fan of American Horror Story, and especially if you watched Season 3, Coven! Ash takes you back to the Deep South of the 1800s. The slave trade was booming and the brutal mistreatment of enslaved people was rampant. It was common for slave owners to treat their enslaved people particularly savagely for fear of uprising. But one woman in particular took that practice to a whole new level of depravity. Madame LaLaurie was a socialite and central figure in New Orleans high society, but rumors had long circulated about her treatment of her enslaved people. When a fire broke out at 1140 Royal Street on April 10, 1834, first responders found a 70 year old woman chained to the stove by her ankle, with a deep wound in her head, and people would soon find out the extent to which she tortured, and inevitably murdered, many of her enslaved people.

TSFU PRESENTS: Psychotic Psychology- Ep. 3: The Milgram Experiment Feb 19, 2024

Show notes

If someone told you to give a stranger an electric shock, to the point where you're severely harming and possibly even killing that stranger... would you do it? What if they were in a white lab coat with a clipboard?
The Milgram experiment is one of the most famous and controversial psychological experiments on obedience and has had a lasting effect on understanding “obedience, authority, and human behavior” as well as group dynamics.

Two weeks ago, on Saturday February 3, 2024, a 12 year old boy was found dead by authorities, naked from the waist down, at Trails Carolina, a "wilderness therapy" camp in North Carolina.
This happened just 5 1/2 weeks after the release of Hell Camp: Teen Nightmare, a Netflix documentary that reached the top ten, detailing the start of the "therapeutic wilderness camp" industry.
"Out-of-control teens across America were sent to a therapy camp in the harsh Utah desert. The conditions were brutal, but the staff were even worse." - Netflix

TSFU: Ep. 144- No One Saw Sh!t: The Very Public Murder of Ken McElroy Feb 16, 2024

Show notes

Skidmore, Missouri... the town that got away with murder. After decades of Ken "Rex" McElroy tormenting everyone in the small town of Skidmore, with no assistance from law enforcement, a few of the townspeople decided to take matters into their own hands. They got on some vigilante sh!t and shot ol' Ken in broad daylight in front of at least 45 people... but apparently, no one "actually saw" what happened and Ken's murder is unsolved to this day.
