Retrospective 1: The Ignition

To celebrate 10 years in podcasting, we're spending the summer going back in time and both highlighting key episodes and telling the stories behind them; you’ll get new behind-the-scenes information about what was happening in life, in various investigations, and in the world that impacted these important episodes and their podcasts. You’ll learn how Josh started podcasting, how he started investigating Israel Keyes, some hilarious and terrifying stories from the road, and some really vulnerable and personal stories. We start our first retrospective at, duh, the beginning. Josh shares how both his podcasting journey and Keyes obsession began. He discusses his time in Seattle and on the Olympic Peninsula, how he ended up on the East Coast, his first deep-dive investigation (not Keyes) and how that led to his second (Keyes). And this kicks off an early episode of his very first show, Our Americana, entitled Van Life.  TROVA TRIP to The Galapagos Islands: https://trovatrip.com/trip/south-america/ecuador/ecuador-with-josh-hallmark-jan-2027 [https://trovatrip.com/trip/south-america/ecuador/ecuador-with-josh-hallmark-jan-2027] Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-bullsh-the-israel-keyes-investigation--3588169/support [https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-bullsh-the-israel-keyes-investigation--3588169/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss].

October 22, 2012: Part 2

In the second half of this interview, Keyes shares his thoughts on other serial killers like BTK, Ted Bundy, and The Green River Killer. Then he discusses his plans for the future, losing control, and how the facade of his life was moving further and further away from who he really was. He also goes into detail regarding the New York victim, the Curriers, breaking into homes, arsons, and fatherhood... and public art.
