The Beatles Are More Popular Than Jesus: Part Two – Lennon vs. The Machine

In this episode of Bitches and Bangerz, I dive deep into the dark and tangled web surrounding the assassination of John Lennon. We’re not just talking about a tragic moment in music history, we’re unpacking the political paranoia, government surveillance, and wild conspiracy theories that still haunt this case more than 40 years later.Was Mark David Chapman truly a lone, deranged fan? Or was he a manipulated pawn in something much bigger, a system that saw Lennon as a threat to American power?We’ll look at the FBI’s declassified files on Lennon, CIA mind control rumours (hello MKUltra), Chapman’s obsession with The Catcher in the Rye, and his bizarre connections to World Vision, an evangelical humanitarian organization with Cold War roots.If you’ve ever asked yourself:Why was Lennon being watched by the U.S. government?Was he targeted for his anti-war activism and political influence?What was Chapman really doing in Beirut and Chicago before the murder?This episode is for you. And trust me, it’s a ride.Have a wild Lennon theory of your own? Want to scream about MKUltra with me in the DMs?Come find me on Instagram @bitchesandbangerz, and tell me what you think really happened that night at the Dakota. Hosted on Acast.
