このコンテンツについて

The study of equal and opposite reaction is in effect the simplest definition of alchemy, and this is a show that aims at the grit and grime of the alchemical process. Proof of the horrific and unholy will show equal proof of things transcendental and divine if we study closely, so here we put at the forefront the things that keep us up at night, the skeletons in our closets, and the monsters under the bed, so that we may take our power back. Here we are cynics with enough faith to still try. Welcome to Black Hoodie Alchemy -- every other Monday as of August 2024!Anthony Tyler 哲学 社会科学

  • 111: Son of Sam, Satanic Cults & 'The Ultimate Evil'
    2025/05/07
    For this episode of Black Hoodie Alchemy, I'm finally covering a topic I have teased here and there since the beginning of the whole show-run! At last, I am covering the sprawling, Charlie-Kelly-in-the-mailroom-style conspiracy theory that suggests that David Berkowitz did not act alone in the Son of Sam Murders of NYC. But make no mistake, this frenzied mailroom vibe comes not from the incredulity of the research, but from the sheer state of mind that tackling all of this topic's many threads will put you into! And let's not forget the fact that Berkowitz was working in a mailroom at the time, and contributed to the whole "going postal" phrase that we have today. Get ready to enter a story that surprisingly finds us diving into real-life theistic Satanism, Scientology and L. Ron Hubbard, Charles Manson, a strange Scientology doom-hippie offshoot called 'The Process Church of the Final Judgment', the dangers of hysterical Satanic Panic, brainwashing, and so much more! There is a lot of hype, hysteria, and leaping-conspiracy-theory conjecture that surrounds this case, but the actual case for the 'Sons of Sam' itself is quite compelling to me. In any case, I work my way through not only the classic tome on the topic, Maury Terry's 'The Ultimate Evil', but I also dissect the docu-series done by award-winning filmmaker Josh Zeman on this same subject, entitled: Sons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness. Not only was Zeman friends with Maury Terry towards the end of his life, but Zeman was the man that Terry willed his entire life's work to -- every document, photo, scribble, phone number... everything. And as an inside scoop, I was able to pick Josh Zeman's brain about this over a Skype call many years ago. While there isn't much he told me that his documentary didn't say, I did get some more direct and explicitly informative answers from him that I share here in the episode.Happy trip down the rabbit hole!Related BHA true crime episodes:The Brazilian PunisherClub Kids & Party MonstersRichard KuklinskiMalachi York's hiphop cultSante Muerte - the good and badIsrael Keyes Alaskan serial killerCartel Black MagiciansSHOW NOTES:NY Times Son of Sam TimelineJosh Zeman filmographySons of Sam: A Descent into Darkness documentaryActual old school Process Church propagandaLove, Sex, Fear, Death - book about the Process ChurchMaury Terry's 'The Ultimate Evil'Declassified FBI investigation into Process ChurchSon of Sam in prisonEd Opperman talks to NYPD Mike CodellaOpperman talks to childhood friend of Carr familyOpperman on History of 'Yonkers Cult'Opperman talks to Carl Denaro, Son of Sam victimLong Island Serial KillingsThis week's featured music -- a truly magnificent sonic assault coming from the strongest underground punk, hardcore, and experimental rock acts around!Salt Style - SaltSouled Out - Doc HammerCarbon Copy - Negative BlastWhen You Force It (Demo) - Zig Mentality

  • 110: Outer-Space in Philosophy & Metaphysics
    2025/04/26
    Welcome back, folks! This week I'm doing an episode that I feel like I probably should've done a long time ago -- but everything comes in due time, and here it finally is! Two and a half hours hashing out outers-space through the lens of philosophy, alchemy, and metaphysics. Diving into topics like the symbolism of outer-space from ancient to modern day; the possibilities and pros/cons of colonizing other planets; whether or not human survival for any deep length of time in space is possible; the history of Operation Paperclip and Warner Von Braun and the extremely dark legacy this paints on our space pursuits as a human culture; Jack Parsons and the history of NASA through Jet Propulsion Labs, including all his weird sex magick, his hang-outs with L. Ron Hubbard, and the absolute brilliance of his self-taught rocketry! And if that wasn't enough, I even take the time to dissect the Moon Landing a bit, discussing why people think that Stanley Kubrick faked the footage and what some of the key details of the hoax theory are. It's one wild fuckin ride this week, I hope you dig it!RELATED MATERIAL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠DIVE MANUAL AUDIOBOOK⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠HUNT MANUAL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BHA LINKTREE w books, shorts, and much more⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BHA episode: UFO, Psychedelia & Disinfo Games⁠⁠BHA episode: UFOs and Carl Jung⁠SHOW NOTESNazis in SpaceJung on Flying SaucersJordan Bimm on SpaceStanley Kubrick & the Moon Landing TheoryJack Parsons, Sex Magick & NASAJack Parsons & L.

  • 109: New Age 'Prosperity Gospel' is Mental Illness
    2025/04/20
    Welcome back -- at long last! Ending another unexpected break, I bring you an unexpected episode just in time for a 4/20-Easter combo, and this should mark the beginning of regular weekly or (at least) bi-weekly episode releases. I've had a lot going in my life recently, most of which has been very trying. It's brought about a lot of change, mostly for the better in the long run, but not before manifesting as horrific chronic pain for a couple months. More updates in the episode!But as for the central focus at hand, I take some time to address some of the insights I felt I gained as I gritted my teeth through intense waves of pain -- as always, I used philosophy to try and preoccupy myself and sometimes when you are pushed to your limits, you find some of your best insights. So I decided that for my episode back, embracing all the suck that I have gone through since my last episode (and all year honestly), I would explain just why all these New Agers that won't embrace the suck are seriously in the grips of mental illness. Using books like Robert Pirsig's legendary Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and others, I get into why exactly this is the case and why's it not even a controversial stance to take. Outside of these insulated and self-congratulatory New Age communities, none of the critical thinkers are fooled. But all the same, rest assured that these 'spiritual' people will keep high-fiving and congratulating each other for saving the world in a way all too similar to the Scientologist rah-rah mindset.I'm just trying to do my part in this episode as a drop in the bucket.
