What are your thoughts on this documentary?

Holy molly! I didn’t realise how deranged these people were. “Land promised to us by God” — from an ancient book. Really opened my eyes to what these extremists are really like.

Lynx got a tattoo of her nazi mother

One of the twins from louis’ nazi documentary got a tattoo of her racist mother. Funny how they said back in 2020 they are very liberal.

Remember this lady? Dr Martha Ogman

Did a bit of digging to see if I could find any info on her, I'd assumed she'd passed away since it's been 20 YEARS since this episode (Gambling in Las Vegas) was filmed.

Seems according to records online she's still alive, at the grand age of 99 years years old.

She's had multiple addresses in New York / Las Vegas, but still seems to live in the same gated community that she did when this was filmed. A whole 3 minutes drive and a 10 minute walk from what was then the Hilton Casino (where most of the documentary is filmed), and is now called the Westgate Hotel & Casino.

A lot of her addresses seem to overlap, so maybe that explains why she seemed to have unlimited funds. Maybe renting high profile places when she retired/husband passed. I'm not sure how accurate the records are.

She'll be 100 years old next March.

Seth (son) who still hasn't got his inheritance, is 59 and still living in Vegas. Patiently waiting I'm sure.

Benjamin Ogman (husband) seems to have passed 2005, "Benjamin Ogman (born March 29, 1920) who died at age 85 on April 21, 2005, in Las Vegas, Nevada.". Can't recall how much of this she mentions in the doc.

I wonder how he’s getting on. I bet he’s looking forward to the 28th Century when he gets out!

One day at a time, fella. One day at a time.

How to access the Louis Theroux interviews?

I'm in Canada and specifically I'd like to watch the Chelsea Manning one. I downloaded britbox (could only dl the Canada version) and it's not on there. Then I downloaded BBC Select on amazon prime and still can't find it. Is it just not available in NA?

Louis audiobooks...

I've just finished both the "got to get Theroux this" and Theroux the Keyhole...

I really enjoyed them both and listened to both twice.

Both books are great. I liked all the historical background to his documentaries in "got to" and especially loved all the Family interactions in "keyhole" his kids embarrisment of their dad racked, cracked me up many times.

I absolutely loved both books.

Has anyone read the first book?

I'm reticent of using an Audible credit.on a short book but i.may well get it as the other two were so enjoyable to listen to..

I hope he brings out a follow up of the years past covid...

Its odd how everyone was predicting civid woukd be with us for decades/ever... but no one even mentions it these days and masks are a memory

Was searching up his doc with Pete Doherty... I think AI crashed out

Ok so I was just googling it because I saw snippets from a doc/interview and I wanted to know where to watch it... Of course Google came to the rescue with an AI response (I swear I don't normally use it I just clicked it from Google)
