(Netflix) This baffling true crime story starts with the grisly death of a pizza delivery guy who robs a bank with a bomb around his neck -- and the story only gets weirder from there. Director Barbara Schroeder sits in with the crew and tells the story of how this project came to her and how she wrestled with bringing it to life. Mark Thompson is joined by Heather Ankeny and J Elvis Weinstein for the conversation with Barbara Schroeder. The show begins with political specialist, Michael Shure, returning to update the mid-term elections.   Mark expresses concern about the safety and integrity of the election process in America.  Can there be free and fair elections in America anymore? Michael and Mark talk about the White House dinner celebrating the Christian right. 00-3:35 Mark intro 3:35-25:41 Michael Shure and Mark talk politics 25:41-1:20:00 Director Barbara Schroeder on her Netflix documetary
