Ghost Stories For The End Of The World - A podcast by ghoststoriesfortheend

One last visit to Italy before we journey to the USA. Here we consider two stories, one real and one fictional: the life and times of Peppino Impastato, and Giorgio De Maria's work of occult, visionary genius, The 20 Days of Turin. I haven't been able to think of one without thinking of the other all year long, and tonight I try to figure out why, exploring the Anno di Piombo, history, terrorism, alienation, paranoia, the mafia, and where we might go from here. It's low-key my favourite episode of everything we've done so far, so I really hope you dig it too.   Send communiques to the Truth Bunker: [email protected]   Melancholic vibes for studying the Deep State: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1K5u6jESjv9snQgdiuUTKB?si=P-pcSjiZR7mta1ps7Q1-tQ   ...and don't get captured.
