In todays episode we’re going to get to know a little bit about Joe Metheny
Joe Metheny is the personification of evil. He didn’t try to hide who he was, there were no masks. He is one of the most vile people that you will ever hear about. Tony explains that when he got the letter from Metheny in January 2007 he really didn't know anything about these maniacs back then. But now after 15 years of communicating with them and learning so much about these psychopaths, It’s like he got a PHD in Psychiatry!Based on his years of experience Tony will dissect a letter in a way to show how a psychopath tries to act normal but they can’t. Metheny didn't wear a physical mask to hide who he was, but he sure tried to hide behind his words.This lesson in serial killer psychopathy really gives the listeners a frame of reference for future letters. 

This episode starts with Tony reading a description of one of Joe Metheny’s chilling murders. 
Metheny describes why he believes his mom is at fault for him becoming a serial killer. In a letter titled “Tears of a Child” Metheny describes his childhood and how he was left on the streets of Baltimore at the age of 6 to fend for himself. Tony and Al through Metheny’s letters and phone calls prove that Metheny is a narcissistic sociopath that truly has no feelings or empathy for what he has done over the years. He totally lies about his upbringing.Metheny finally admits that he has no use for Jesus and says that “Jesus is dead and Satan rules over all of us!” 

Tony and Al revisit Tony’s Near death Experience from 1993
Discussion about a new movie titled “After Death brings excitement and new discussion to the fact that there really is Life after DeathMetheny discusses how he was a serial killer in the making since his early childhood. From hurting insects then animals to other kids in his neighborhood.Metheny talks in detail with Tony about his first kill. Something he has never discussed before. He was 15 and his victim was a 12 year old red haired girl. Metheny discusses his feelings after his first killing:"The first is exciting with your adrenaline rushing and then a fear of getting caught"."The second is a little easier but you’re more paranoid because you got away with the 1st and you don’t want to get caught"."The rest after that it's like swatting flies. You will have no feelings at all".

Metheny sends Tony an unexpected present. He also describes more about his first kill experiences.
Joe Metheny sends Tony a tooth that he pulled out of his mouth. This tooth actually consumed human flesh.Metheny also provides Tony with a T Shirt that is a 9 Large which give you an idea of the size of this monster.  IOn the T-Shirt Tiny depicts in cartoon form what he used to do to his victims as he prepared them to serve at his BBQ stand. Al and Tony show and describe both the Tooth and T- shirt on the show. You can see them both on the You Tube channel or Buy Me a Coffee. Metheny actually admits to losing his virginity to a German Shepard named Sheena. Given the dark and disgusting nature of these subjects Tony and Al add a lot of humor to try and lighten the mood. 

Joe Metheny discusses with Tony what life is like in prison, describes in detail who his “Prison Brothers” were. 
Metheny’s letters are so detailed and are always fascinating, putting the listener right in the middle of the story.Tiny describes how he thought he saw a ghost when describing one of the female guards. She reminded him of the 12 year old girl that was his first kill back in 1970. He lost control and his actions once again ended up with him being put in the dreaded hole.   Finally he describes another of his murders that he was never caught for. In detail he discusses the killing of a prostitute while he was a trucker out on the road. Even giving details where it happened and where she is to this day. Joe always intimated that victims were readily available to over the road truckers and he took full advantage.
