The Unabomber Part One

This week, we’re heading into darker, and very strange territory with part one of the Unabomber.

It’s Christmas, we’ve had a few drinks, and instead of switching our brains off, we’ve decided to unpack the chilling beginnings of Ted Kaczynski, the reclusive, highly intelligent, and deeply disturbed man behind one of the longest and most complex manhunts in U.S. history.

From a gifted child pushed to extremes, to a shadowy figure mailing terror across the country, we explore how a mind so sharp turned so dangerous, and how investigators struggled for years to understand who they were really hunting.

So pour yourself something festive, settle in with two girls who definitely aren’t detectives, slightly tipsy but fully committed to trying to make sense of it all.

Because sometimes the most terrifying threats don’t come with a face, just a package.
