Blood and Soil - Episode 1: "The Declaration"
from File 187 True Crime Podcast · host Joe McReynolds and Dan Kewley
Blood and Soil — Episode One: "The Declaration" In 1983, nine men stood in a field in Idaho and swore an oath. Eighteen months later, one of them was dead in a burning house. The rest were in federal custody. The FBI called it a victory. They were wrong. This is the story of what happens when ideology becomes identity. When grievance becomes theology. When ordinary people become capable of extraordinary violence. Every fact is documented. Every source is public record. We'll show you exactly where the bodies are buried, and what's still moving. Next in Episode Two: The Machine. In 1983, radicalizing someone took a compound, a congress, and years of patient work. In 2025, it takes an algorithm and forty-five minutes. How did we get here? Three episodes. One question: How does it keep happening?
