Send us a textRaven Riot returns to talk about SHC! I really can't wrap my brain around these cases & I think you'll find them interesting cause there really are no words to explain what happened to these people. The explanations don't add up & we are left with more questions than answers.  What the hell causes these people to burn up into a pile of ashes? I honestly still have no clue.LISTEN TO:Julianna Riolino - Echo In The DustJake Kohn - Where Do We Go From Here?

Send us a textThis time around, Renni Pollock, host of COMPANY MOVE joins me to discuss her Hometown nut house, The Peoria State Hospital in Illinois.  Its history is actually one of inspiration & good, ethical treatment during a time when State Hospitals were notorious for basically torturing their patients.  And of course, it's haunted too.  We also discuss the Dammasch State Hospital in Oregon, which has a much more sordid past & downfall but what exists on its former grounds is interesting to say the least.  STEVEX is also back at the end of the episode to give his Denver Airport Update! FIND COMPANY MOVE WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO PODCASTS & SUBSCRIBE!HERE'S AN APPLE PODCASTS LINK WITH REVIEWS:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/company-move/id1759907650PEORIA STATE HOSPITAL:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFBXSZlwZKwPHOTOS OF ABANDONED DAMMASCH STATE HOSPITAL BEFORE IT WAS DEMOLISHED:http://www.smitheliot.com/dammasch-state-hospital-1LISTEN TO:Flyte - Between You & MeMargo Price - Hard Headed WomanDeftones - Private MusicDean Johnson - I Hope We Can Still Be FriendsJulien Baker & Torres - Send A Prayer My WayDEVO - their whole catalogueIDLES - Caught Stealing SoundtrackKurt Vile - Classic Love (ep)Folk Bitch Trio - Now Would Be A Good TimeRye Coalition - New Sheriff In TownPrimitive Man - Social Contract (single from upcoming album OBSERVANCE)The Consequence - S/TNEW WORD OF THE NITE:MUPPIEacronym for a "middle-aged urban professional", similar to the term "yuppie" but for an older demographic, or it can be a casual, all-purpose word used in Florida slang for "anything"WEBSITE/STORE: https://lostrhetoric.com/EMAIL: lostrhetoricpodcast@gmail.comBLUESKY: @lostrhetoric.bsky.socialINTRO & OUTRO MUSIC BY LEE DANIEL DINGES

Send us a textSTEVE X is back to discuss the mysteries behind the DIA, or the Denver International Airport, or DEN, or Illuminati World HQ...whatever you want to call it.  It has underground tunnels, "Apocalyptic" Murals, Masonic time capsules, it was built on a Native American Burial Ground (possibly), its runways form a Swatstika, it has a Demonic Mustang statue that killed the Artist who made it, it has Gargoyles...and more! To top it off, Airport officials have fully embraced the chaos & conspiracies surrounding its existence.  Is it all in good fun or all smoke & mirrors? We don't know!

Send us a textThis week Nick Parks from heavy heartthrobs, GAYTHEIST, joins me to discuss magic.  Some left hand path, some right hand path...but we mainly focus on how an individual can get so wrapped up in their own journey that they lose sight of reality.  Adolfo De Jesus Constanzo was a magical serial killer that had ties to & high stakes in Mexican drug cartels.  It's an unreal & violent story that ends the only way it could end...with lots of violence.GAYTHEIST:facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GaytheistPDX/bandcamp:  https://gaytheist.bandcamp.com/instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gaytheistband/?hl=en                           ADOLFO CONSTANZO:  https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/the-believers-cult-murders-in-mexico-53577/LISTEN TO:IGGY POPVEIN.FM NEW WORD OF THE NITE:FLINDERS plural nounflin·​ders | \ ˈflin-dərz  \Definition of flinders: SPLINTERS, FRAGMENTSCONTACT FOR SOURCE LIST OR JUST TO CHAT:lostrhetoricpodcast@gmail.comINSTAGRAM:  https://www.instagram.com/lostrhetoricpodcast/?hl=enTWITTER:  https://twitter.com/lost_rhetoricOFFICIAL WEBSITE & SHOP: https://lostrhetoric.com/INTRO & OUTRO MUSIC BY LEE DANIEL DINGES

Send us a textIn the early days of LSD experimentation, there were quite a few deaths in the scene & a lot of rumors surrounding those deaths.  LSD may have caused some of them but maybe, just maybe, the hype & fear surrounding the drug was used as a scapegoat.

Send us a textEdward Leedskalnin, we've determined, was probably not a good guy.  He had some sketchy personal ideals (which he wrote about) and by today's standards he was a love spurned pedophile obsessing psychotically over losing the chance to marry a child 10 years his junior.  He took all of his bitterness, moved from Latvia to the USA & eventually built a modern marvel of a shrine to his "sweet sixteen".  He plainly says he built it by himself just because he knew what he was doing.  This could very well be the basic, boring truth.  But what kind of story is that to tell? All sorts of weirdness could've been afoot while carving, then erecting massive oolite limestone blocks under cover of night all by his lonesome in South Florida.  You be the judge.  Johnny Brooke from Coffin Apartment joins me to discuss all of it.COFFIN APARTMENT:https://coffinapartment.bandcamp.com/CORAL CASTLE OFFICIAL SITE:https://coralcastle.com/VIDEO WITH SOME MORE INFO ON THE 9 TON GATE (not sure if any of it is valid but it's still interesting):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekxTLhRci0ELISTEN TO...MELISSA:  https://melissanyc.bandcamp.com/album/s-tORVILLE PECK: https://www.orvillepeck.com/THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM "The '59 Sound": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7XJcQVXtuY&list=RDL7XJcQVXtuY&index=1LISTEN TO THESE PODCASTS WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO PODCASTS:The AgentThe OpportunistAlligator CandySports WarsThe Yellow CarNEW WORD OF THE NITE:cop·ro·la·li·a/ˌkäprəˈlālēə,ˈkäprəˌlālyə/nounthe involuntary and repetitive use of obscene language, as a symptom of mental illness or organic brain disease.CONTACT ME FOR SOURCE LIST OR JUST TO CHAT:lostrhetoricpodcast@gmail.comINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/lostrhetoricpodcast/?hl=enTWITTER: https://twitter.com/lost_rhetoricOFFICIAL WEBSITE & STORE: https://lostrhetoric.com/INTRO & OUTRO MUSIC BY LEE DANIEL DINGES
