I have binged the first 2 episodes of Mother Country Radicals and it is a gripping, detailed look at the radical left wing ‘Weather Underground’ group of the 60’s and 70’s in the USA and how their leader, Bernadine Dohrn was declared the most dangerous woman in America. Zayd Ayers Dohrn is the Son of the leaders of the group, and he gives a very personal account of what it was like to be born underground in the 1970’s with his parents on the run from the FBI. He interviews his parents on how the Weather Underground evolved, their exploits and regrets. Well told and I Highly recommend.

Awesome good storytelling from 99pi. The rise of the Pentecostal church from the fringe to the mainstream: (alleged) kidnapping and sex scandals! At least, a good old disappearance a la Agatha Christie. And the woman behind that first megachurch was one of the top 3 most famous women in America at that time . . . And she was Canadian too! Who knew.
