The Case of the Unabomber

Welcome back to episode 25 of the Totally Innocent Podcast! This week we are taking a look at The Unabomber. A very strange man who left society to be one with nature, only to send literal bombs in the mail. This thinking was, in his mind, the right thing to do.. as if domestic terrorism ever got anybody anywhere, right? Basics of the case: "Theodore John Kaczynski (/kəˈzɪnski/ kə-ZIN-skee; born May 22, 1942), also known as the Unabomber (/ˈjuːnəbɒmər/), is an American domestic terrorist and former mathematics professor.[3][4] He was a mathematics prodigy, but abandoned his academic career to pursue a primitive life.[5] In 1971, Kaczynski moved to a remote cabin without electricity or running water near Lincoln, Montana, where he lived as a recluse while learning survival skills to become self-sufficient. He witnessed the destruction of the wilderness surrounding his cabin and concluded that living in nature was becoming impossible. He resolved to fight industrialization and its destruction of nature through terrorism." want to write in to the show? send an email to [email protected]!
