Ep. 143: The Manson Family Murders, Pt. 3 - The Bottomless Pit
Manage episode 375094589 series 2852147
In week 3 of our Manson saga we travel with the Family to the worn-down Western movie set of Spahn Ranch, where Charlie and co set up shop and begin their descent further into shared cult madness - separated from their loved ones, fully dependent on Charlie, hungry, overworked, and addled out of their minds on constant LSD consumption. It's a potent cocktail, ready to explode in the California heat...and boy, will it ever.
When The Beatles' White Album is released, the darkness at the Ranch coalesces into what Charlie preaches as his core teaching: white people will be overtaken by the Black people they've oppressed, and when that happens, only the Family will be able to survive by descending into a bottomless pit located in the Death Valley desert. This apocalyptic race war is dubbed "Helter Skelter" by Charlie, and once his very last shot at stardom ends in utter humiliation, he finally has nothing else to lose - and the victims soon to come will lose everything.
This week, we descend into the bottomless pit with the Manson Family. Next week, we begin the horror that is Helter Skelter.
