Sorry for the late drop, illness has overtaken the studio.

The discussion explores Simmons' troubled upbringing, military career, and the psychological factors that led to his violent actions.

In a lighter episode, this conversation explores the Hopkinsville incident of Christmas Eve 1955, where the Sutton family experienced a series of strange encounters with small luminous beings. The discussion delves into the events of that night, the family's reactions, law enforcement's investigation, and the various theories that have emerged over the years. The incident remains a significant part of folklore and UFO history, raising questions about the nature of reality and the unexplained.

On Christmas Eve 2008, a quiet Covina neighborhood erupted into chaos, when Bruce Pardo arrived at his former in-laws holiday party dressed as Santa Claus carrying a gift wrapped weapon and a deadly plan. What followed was one of the most shocking family annihilation cases in modern history. A shocking case of vengeance, devastation and a holiday forever marked by tragedy. Listener discretion is advised.
