I'm joined by independent researcher and unlicensed Irish PI Ryan to discuss the Catholic Church in Ireland, the arrival of Opus Dei, and a bizarre ritualistic murder that took place in 1973.

VATICAN SHADOWS BOOK 1: Opus Dei part ii
We explore the origins of the Vatican-CIA alliance and Josemaria's arrival in Rome. While Opus Dei consolidates its power in Spain and reaches an uneasy accommodation with Vatican II, it begins a major expansion into the new world, collecting friends everywhere from New York to Santiago. By the early 1970s, Opus Dei members are ready to play an integral role in the neoliberal coup in Chile, and offer theological and political justifications for the ensuing campaign of state terror and repression. This one has a bit of everything: faith, fascism, terrorism, miracles, murder and money laundering.

You don't make up for your sins in church. You do it in the streets. You do it at home. The rest is bullshit, and you know it.

It's time for church
Proxima hebdomade, seriem incipimus nos reversuros esse ut per annum proximum vel sic intermittant. Ecclesia catholica. De Deo loquor. De diabolo loquor. De Caelo, Inferno, et de ultimis diebus loquor. Nemo mea opera iudicet nisi Pater.
Proba fidem tuam et opera mea confirma per donando hic

97 - These Dreams of Menwith Hill
We’re setting the table for the year ahead in Ghost Stories, and to do so we’ll be following a number of threads that may or may not have much to do with each other. Key to this one is the UK’s relationship with the US, which we use to explore how unnerving it feels to be alive in the Hermit Kingdom in the last days, its mind blown out by redundant upper management and a deep state that no longer has any purpose. We mainline the DMT released from the dying spider’s brain, exploring Keir Starmer as the Last Man, dreams in the imperial core, surveillance, terrorism, the dregs of empire, classified US-UK programs like GHOSTHUNTER and APPARITION, temporal dislocation, and long-dead spree killers haunting the Yorkshire moors.
