249 - H.P. Lovecraft, the Cthulhu Mythos, and the Horror You Love Today

Hope you have as fun listening to this one as I had making it! I had no idea prior to digging into this topic, that Lovecraft was so influential on modern horror. Like Stranger Things? Heavily influenced by Lovecraft. Like Stephen King's It? The cosmic monster who presents as Pennywise is a creature who could have come directly from the Cthulhu mythos. Much of the Twilight Zone, the X-Files, the BBC's Black Mirror and more - so influenced by Lovecraft. And, in a way, fictional universes like the Marvel cinematic universe and George Lucas's Star Wars universe - influenced by the cosmic worldbuilding of Lovecraft. We feel a lot of his influence today - but who was the man? We'll take a look at that as well - including the ugly parts. And we'll meet some of his creatures and dissect the structure of some of Lovecraft's most influential stories. A very Weird Tales edition of Timesuck awaits!

412 - Saddam Hussein

Taking a look into the life of the former dictator of Iraq today, which will of course lead us into at least summarizing the first and second Persian Gulf Wars. How bad of a guy was Saddam?

411 - The Monster of Florence

411 - The Monster of Florence

Between 1968 and 1985, eight couples having sex in either parked vehicles or a tent in remote areas just outside of Florence, Italy were murdered. The killer shot them with the same .22 handgun. And from four of the women, the killer took a brutal trophy.... their vagina. As morbidly fascinating and troubling as these crimes are, the inept, corrupt, and superstitious  investigation into catching the killer is even  more troubling and fascinating. Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/v3Wt9iIp-kIMerch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?

The Tsuyama Massacre. The strange tale of one sexually frustrated man, Mutsuo Toi, who cut the power lines that fed electricity to his entire village one night, and then, armed with a samurai sword, daggers, a semi-automatic shotgun and 200 rounds of ammo, he wandered from house to house for 90 minutes, murdering roughly a third of his village's residents... WATCH THIS EPISODE: https://youtu.be/oN0uijgCVAgFor Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

410 - The Love Has Won Cult

The Love Has Won Cult was led by Amy Carlson, who died from alcohol abuse, anorexia, and colloidal silver dosing at the age of only 45 on April 16th, 2021. She'd badly needed medical treatment for two years, but didn't trust "3D hospitals" because she thought she was Mother God, a 5D being. And one of her galactic spiritual advisors, Robin Williams, forbid her from receiving treatment. Oh yeah,  this is an especially weird one...Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/qlw0BAZwi1IMerch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?

Do you know why Pornhub removed over 80% of its content at the end of 2020? The site was littered with child pornography and rape videos. Is it still? And if it is, where else can you go to find some "ethical pornography"?  A look into where to (and where not to)  beat your beaver and clean your meat-rifle today! WATCH THIS EPISODE: https://youtu.be/4coiGblMKAsFor Merch and everything else Bad Magic related, head to: https://www.badmagicproductions.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

408 - Larry Nassar and the US Gymnastics Scandal

How was Dr. Larry Nasser able to sexually abuse over 500 victims, almost all of them young female gymnasts, over a period of 25+ years, in plain sight? He abused many of them while their parents sat right next to them, or across the room. And what culture of abuse was exposed when he was finally investigated? His dad needs help!

407 - Serial Flasher/Rapist/Killer Randy Woodfield

I don't know if anyone has ever loved exposing themselves to strangers as much as Randy Woodfield. The serial flasher, rapist, and I-5 Killer had an unusual childhood for a sexual predator - it was wonderful. He grew up in a loving, two-parent home, in a charming Oregon coast town, where he got good grades, was popular, and so good at football he was drafted into the NFL.
