“In light of Jan 6 & recent revelations about The Percenters’ successful recruiting, Sottile’s reporting feels prescient.
Listeners who live anywhere but the middle of nowhere West may learn more than the bargain for.”

“I enjoyed this podcast over all with the movements of extreme domestic terrorists. And I would agree with you on most of your reporting but one thing. Your reporting on Steven’s county is a bit off. While reporting north Idaho’s Arian nation and the link to stevens county is false. Do they have a...”Read full review »

“It’s obvious the lady telling the story which probably doesn’t identify as a woman is a Trump hating LIBTARD. Sounds like she hates white people and probably marched with BLM and Antifa.”

“This is my second time listening to this. It explains so much of what’s going on out here in the West. Scary bunch. Glad Bundy never got elected governor of Idaho😬.
I would love to hear a podcast series on the Lori Vallow/Chad Daybell saga. They have the same Mormon roots. Strikes me as...”Read full review »

“Incredible, and well done. Hits way too close to home for this 6th generation Idahoan.
Pleeeeeeease do an update, since Ammon F. Bundy is now running for Governor in Idaho. Embarrassed to admit that.

She goes so far as to cut off clips of the people involved speaking to tell you what to think about what they said, rather than allowing...”Read full review »

“I live in Idaho and nobody takes him seriously. He is the big white supremacist. I haven’t seen a black person in 15 months. He just wants attention. He’s a stunted second grader. Next time I hope he attaches himself to a police car.”

That’s what’s scary: once...”Read full review »

“In light of what happened at the US Capital on January 6, 2021, Season 1 is extremely relevant!
It provides a well researched documentation of how the insurrectionist mindset has developed over time. Sadly, it’s become very prophetic.”

“You touch a lot on the Bundy motto of “whatever it takes” and how it’s inciting followers to create violence. How do you feel about “by any means necessary” used during the civil rights movement and Malcolm X? The Bundys are a religious minority but in the racial majority. I just find it...”Read full review »
