This week we continue to unravel the intricate and tumultuous life of Ronald True, whose journey from modest beginnings to becoming a controversial con artist and "war hero" is both fascinating and tragic.
A charismatic yet deeply flawed character, his rise to fame, and his poignant fall are both comedically lucky and terribly sad. Through an in-depth conversation, we examine True's impactful role in history, marked by a descent into madness that challenged legal perceptions of insanity.Join us as we navigate the fine line between humor and the serious implications of True's actions on women and society, challenging our understanding of morality in the context of mental health and societal norms.--------------------------------EPISODE REFERENCE LINKS: Trial of Ronald True By Donald Carswell: https://www.amazon.com/Trial-Ronald-True-Donald-Carswell/dp/127510312XThe Madness of Ronald True, 1922 by Mark John Maguire: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRVLPs8sjr0Templer Family History: https://sites.rootsmagic.com/Templer_Family/individual.php?p=3054--------------------------------MUSIC CREDITS: Outro Music: Lounge Jungle by Curt S D Macdonald https://download.audiohero.com/track/41504269 Music Licensing Agreements: https://blackcat.report/music-licensing-agreement
