1 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:05,280 Speaker 1: Bryce Shelby is a slender black man who is known 2 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,399 Speaker 1: around Denver for attending the racial justice protests with an 3 00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: assault rifle slung over his shoulder, which isn't illegal. Colorado 4 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 1: is an open carry state. Bryce would often wear black 5 00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: Panther Party T shirts during demonstrations. He's agreed to meet 6 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: with me in Denver. It's a February afternoon and it's 7 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,000 Speaker 1: bitterly cold. There's a fresh dusting of snow on the ground. 8 00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: Bryce is sitting down as I'm setting up.

Zeb Hall wasn't an FBI informant. Until 22 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: that phone conversation. Bryce had been certain zeb was the snitch. 23 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: Bryce is interested in crossing off names because he's running 24 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: a process of elimination. To this day, he's never figured 25 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: out exactly why the FBI went after him. Did you 26 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 1: think that was maybe, you know, part of what happened 27 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: to you? Well, he was at one of those situations 28 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: with Mickey. But we can get into it. Yeah, we're 29 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: about to get into it. I'm Trevor Aaronson from Western 30 00:01:46,680 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 1: Sound and I Heart Podcasts.

Hands up, don't shoot, 53 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: You're gonna fire on you legally, you're right. That's Bryce is, 54 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 1: as it happens, an aspiring hip hop artist. He goes 55 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: by the stage name Acoustic, and thanks to that flowing, 56 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: lyrical voice, Bryce is pretty good. Everybody go on what side, 57 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: don't shade if you like, but a chop a tree, 58 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: not a person in my age race stopped to me. 59 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 1: I need to boxing me of a Catholides. I'm being 60 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: a call at the map and the doctor pleats. I 61 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: try to copy with enocities. I'm gonna call it trying 62 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: to complete. In Denver, there was an open mic series 63 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 1: called Melanated Mike that became a gravitational center for local 64 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: racial justice activists. Regular speakers included Bryce zep Haul and 65 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:31,679 Speaker 1: Trey Quinn. He was me, if I never had a felony, 66 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: This is Trey describing Bryce. Trey recruited people to speak 67 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: out Melanated Mike and entering the demonstrations. If I had 68 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: never had a felony, I would have been a licensed 69 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: gun owner. I probably would have been a lot more 70 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: like him, you know, with my rhetoric and just the 71 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: way I acted. You know, I I do these things 72 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: a certain way because I know that they can use 73 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: it against me, and so I can't just outright say 74 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: all my beliefs in the most raw form. And he 75 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: would say the things out loud that I would think 76 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: out loud like you know, or think like I think 77 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 1: up here, but they come out of my mouth a 78 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: different way. He would say, just that. You know, That's 79 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 1: how how he was. So that Bryce was he was 80 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,559 Speaker 1: radical me for sure. Bryce could be a live wire, 81 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:23,560 Speaker 1: and sometimes in his speeches he just go way too far. 82 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: He often had the right idea, but it would just 83 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: come out wrong, very wrong. Once we had a town 84 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: hall and me and Bryce spoke. I spoke first, Bryce 85 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: spoke second, and Bryce he made a Hitler reference. He 86 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: made a Donald Trump Hitler socialism reference, and he used 87 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 1: Hitler as the hinge point for the reference. Now, it 88 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: takes so much nuance to understand what he was saying, 89 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: because it to the layman, it literally sounded like he 90 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 1: just said Hitler was right. You know what I'm saying, 91 00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: But he's literally saying Hitler used a rhetoric about socialists 92 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: that also applies to this. Right now, this is what 93 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: he was trying to say. He could have used any 94 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,599 Speaker 1: other person, but he used that. Bryce's Hitler speech happened 95 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: in August twenty twenty, around the time that Mickey had 96 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 1: falsely accused Trey of being an informant, and there were 97 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: rumors online circulating about Trey, including that he was a fed, 98 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: that he was nanti Semite, that he just couldn't be trusted. 99 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: On the Reddit thread of the Black Speakers that spoke 100 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: that night, it was all about me and everything that 101 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: all of the black speakers said. Apparently I said they 102 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 1: were like Trey said this and that and he and 103 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: he made a healer reference. I told you he was 104 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: an end all this crazy shit, and I knew it 105 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: was like y'all weren't even out there, none of these 106 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: people were here. And so to me, those felt like 107 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: veag accounts for sure, you know what I mean, like 108 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 1: one person with several accounts helping construct the narrative. That's 109 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: what it felt like to me. I wish I could 110 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: prove that shit. If you remember, Mickey starts spreading rumors 111 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 1: that Trey was working for the FEDS and that whisper 112 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: campaign is having an effect, so in confusion among the 113 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: leaders and participants of the demonstrations and leading to allegations 114 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: online all made by anonymous accounts, that Trey is a problem. 115 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: At the time, Trey isn't telling others that he suspects 116 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: Mickey's an informant. He doesn't want word getting back to 117 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: Mickey because Tray's working under a strategy of keeping your 118 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: enemies close. So Bryce has no idea about tray suspicions. 119 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: And one night Bryce attends a party hosted by Mickey 120 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: and his allies. It's in the apartment with all the 121 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: pekk flags, the one where zeb had seen on several 122 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: occasions a table full of guns. This probe like where 123 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: it all starts, I guess for me. Back to Bryce. 124 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: Like other demonstrators in Denver, Bryce is fed up. Nothing's 125 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,559 Speaker 1: changing and they're getting their asses kicked by the cops 126 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: every night. There was a bunch of people there and 127 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: it was just, you know, I'm like I would just 128 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: super frustrated with just a whole bunch of different things. 129 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: Mickey comes up to Bryce at the party, you know 130 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: what I mean. He was like, you know, what's your 131 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: how do you feel? I was like, man like, not 132 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: literally thinking like that, but just like, man like, they're 133 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: not gonna give us no kind of justice, no other 134 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: kind of way. Let's hit him where it hurts, for real. 135 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: I was basically just saying how I felt like, let's 136 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: hit him where it hurts, like they're killing us. Bryce 137 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: stops here and he goes on a tangent. It's a 138 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: bit of a rant. I'm gonna let you hear it 139 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 1: because this is Bryce's typical rhetoric. The type of thing 140 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: he'd say in front of crowds during protests. But this 141 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 1: is also what he's saying to Mickey an FBI informant 142 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 1: when they meet at the party. America, black people, African Americans, Negroes, niggas, 143 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: niggas whatever, we have been under persecution and treated a 144 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: certain way by Europeans, Eurasians, whatever you want to call 145 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: white people of lighter skin for at least three centuries, 146 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: four centuries. We've been looking for something from your treaty 147 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: and from eighteen thirty five that says you was gonna 148 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: give everybody forty acres m. We've been looking for that 149 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: for a hundred years, since we've been out of slavery. 150 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: Now you have sworn peace officers who are killing black 151 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: people for whatever specific reason. So to see it happen 152 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 1: and start getting closer home, like I said Trey via 153 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: Mike Brown, everything like that. And the politicians aren't doing anything, 154 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,680 Speaker 1: the governor of the mayor, there's no laws being changed, 155 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: there's no bills being submitted, the officers aren't being penalized 156 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: or what's the word prosecuted. Sorry, you're not really seeing 157 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 1: anything on the systematic side of it, thing of things. 158 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: So it's like Okay, they're killing us. Let's show them 159 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: how it feels one time, basically, and that's kind of 160 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: where you know, that's again, that's where conversations with Mickey, 161 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, kind of pretty much went 162 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 1: more or less. Mickey seems receptive to what Bryce is saying, 163 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,959 Speaker 1: and to impress Bryce, he starts talking about his experience 164 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 1: fighting ISIS in Iraq. Mickey brought out a picture of 165 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: him standing over like I don't know how many people 166 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: with bodies would have, you know, cigar in his mouth, 167 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: rifle in his hand. I don't know if that was 168 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: exactly that, but I know it was him in the 169 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: picture standing over somebodies with a rifle in his head. 170 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 1: He may not have had the cigar. I say the 171 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: cigar because he smoked them saying over a bunch of 172 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: dead bodies. And then next to the picture was an 173 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: ISIS flag. Bryce is impressed. He assumes Mickey is some 174 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 1: kind of mercenary. Mickey tells Bryce that he wants to 175 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 1: talk to him more in private. He invites Bryce to 176 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 1: join him for lunch the next day. So let's go 177 00:10:48,640 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: to lunch after the break. Okay, this is a special 178 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: agent Scott Dlstrom with special Agent Byron Mitchell stche It's 179 00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:11,559 Speaker 1: a sunny day in Denver. This is the week that 180 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: racial justice activists have begun their full on attacks targeting 181 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: police buildings with rocks and fireworks, actions that Mickey had 182 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:23,080 Speaker 1: hyped up and encouraged. FBI agent Scott Dhlstrom, Mickey's handler, 183 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: is sitting in the passnger seat of a black sedan. 184 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: He hands Mickey a recording device. YEA, yeah, okay, peace 185 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: loving hair grease. Right, peace love and hair grease, Mickey 186 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: tells the FBI agents. He then walks back to a 187 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: silver hearse. Mickey already has a song ready for this moment, 188 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 1: as if he put together a playlist for his work 189 00:11:55,240 --> 00:12:00,439 Speaker 1: as an FBI informant. The song Mickey's playing is Long 190 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 1: Cool Woman in a Black Dress by the Hollies. It's 191 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: about an FBI undercover agent during Prohibition. He's inside a 192 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 1: speakeasy and the cops are about to raid the place. 193 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: He's not answering this. Bullets were drive by his house. 194 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 1: He's a beautiful singer and saves her from arrest. As 195 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: the song plays, the FBI's hidden camera gets flipped around 196 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: and faces the partition separating the hearses driver's cabin from 197 00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: the area where the coffin would normally be stowed. Leaning 198 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: against the partition, you can see a crossbow with arrows. 199 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,400 Speaker 1: This isn't a Robin Hood style crossbow either. We're talking 200 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: about a military style death dealer, designed like a rifle 201 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: that fires arrows instead of bullets, a true zombie apocalypse 202 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:56,439 Speaker 1: kind of crossbow. After driving for about ten minutes, Mickey 203 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,079 Speaker 1: parks and gets out of the hearse. It's the summer 204 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty er, the pandemic is in high gear, 205 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 1: and vaccines are several months away. Most people are still 206 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: wearing face masks indoors. In the undercover video, you can 207 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 1: see Mickey putting on his mask. It's black. On the 208 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: left side it reads Peshmerga with a Kurdish flag. On 209 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: the right side it says ninth Brigade with a logo 210 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: for the Punisher. I'm pretty sure this wasn't standard issue 211 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: for volunteer Peshmerga fighters. Mickey no doubt had it made 212 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 1: at a screen printing place. Anyway, this afternoon, with this 213 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,079 Speaker 1: custom made Peshmerga punisher mask, Mickey has his tough guy 214 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: costume on and he struts into famous Days a chain 215 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: barbecue restaurant. Mickey's asked for a table for three, and 216 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,600 Speaker 1: of course, since he's secretly recording this for the FBI, 217 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:58,839 Speaker 1: he's also requested for the restaurant's music to be turned down. 218 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: But feen minutes later, the activist Bryce Shelby shows up. 219 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:08,719 Speaker 1: What are you up to? Mickey's arranged this lunch to 220 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: bring Bryce and zeb together. Mickey and the FBI are 221 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 1: now targeting both of them, trying to find a way 222 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: to set them up on federal criminal charges. At the 223 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: beginning of this lunch, Mickey appears to hope he can 224 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 1: envelop them in a kind of conspiracy. It's all vague 225 00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: at this point, but Mickey's aim is to fold them 226 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: into some sort of big, violent plot. At the time, 227 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: Bryce doesn't really know zeb Zeb hasn't arrived for lunch yet, 228 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: and so Mickey tells Bryce that he's bringing the two 229 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: of them together because, in Mickey's words, they're talking about 230 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: the same shit. Yeah yeah, all right, yeah, because he 231 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: says zeb was like because z was talking about like 232 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: the same ship. Yeah, and he was like outside, you 233 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:58,240 Speaker 1: know what, because I didn't want to like bring anybody together, 234 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 1: try to like sure, but he was cool. Ye, That's 235 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 1: why I asked away. I asked to make sure it 236 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,480 Speaker 1: was just like coach. The waiter then comes up to 237 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: the table, so I uh, I was like, you know what, 238 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: maybe bring everybody together to if it works out like that, 239 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,560 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So no harm, no foul, 240 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: yeah talk. Bryce tells Mickey that Zeb has been encouraging 241 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: him to tone down his rhetoric and speeches, something Bryce 242 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 1: doesn't want to do. Mickey then suggested Bryce that Zeb 243 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: might have an ulterior motive, like, well, I guess he's 244 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: trying to keep licking everything like under the radar, keep 245 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:43,200 Speaker 1: things under the radar. Mickey says, as if ZEB is 246 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,120 Speaker 1: the mastermind of some big plot in the making. And 247 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 1: then about ten minutes later, Zeb arrives. I was wondering 248 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: if you were coming, okay, yeah, kind of stopped everything. 249 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 1: How you doing? You're good? Good? Good? Fuck? When I 250 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 1: saw it was Bryce, So like, what the fuck this 251 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: nigga right here? ZEB didn't know that Bryce was going 252 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: to be at this lunch. I didn't trust this dude. 253 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: I didn't think he was just you know, we all 254 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: had some mischiefs. Hell, I've got issues, but this dude 255 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: just wasn't fucking there. And when I saw him, like, 256 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 1: what the fuck this guy? You know, Bryce would walk 257 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: around with a fucking semi automatic gun. As some of 258 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: the protests, he walked around with a fucking noose around 259 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: his neck, and yeah, people, everybody was upset. But I'm like, yo, 260 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: this fucking guy. And at that point, you know, I'm there, 261 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: I was like, all right, let's just see what the 262 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 1: fuck's going on now. But Mickey wants to bring these 263 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: guys together, and he wastes no time in getting started. 264 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 1: He tells zeb and Bryce that his guy an outlaw biker, 265 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: a bad motherfucker. He's coming into town. Okay, so nobody 266 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: can hear us. So okay, so I talked to my dude. 267 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: He's on board.

He'll walk you through what the game plan is. 270 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: Mickey says he's going to back away from all this 271 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: once he introduces zeb and Bryce to his guy, and 272 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,080 Speaker 1: his excuse for doing that is he's got a broken finger. 273 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 1: Mickey claims to have injured his finger in a motorcycle 274 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: accident at Sturgis, an annual biker rally in South Dakota. 275 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:22,959 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to step back for a little bit 276 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,159 Speaker 1: because of this fucking situation until this is resolved, because 277 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 1: I am like, no good, what the fucked up finger?

Mickey then starts to encourage Zeb and Bryce 290 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:13,719 Speaker 1: to come up with a plan, but he warns they 291 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,919 Speaker 1: can't bring anybody else in.

Why can't I grow anger over time, 329 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,479 Speaker 1: Zeb says, and then create a demonstration in a rich 330 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: neighborhood if people get violent, well, I can't control people. 331 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: That appears to be the extent of Zeb's recipe for 332 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: revolution and that's not good enough for Mickey. But which 333 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: rich neighborhood do you think him of pick up it 334 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: over time?

He's going 342 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 1: to help you with this, but you understand this guy's 343 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:05,159 Speaker 1: are no fun around type of do you know what 344 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: I mean? And it's like, you know, I mean you 345 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: look at Bryce's point and Bryce is talking about immediate action, 346 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: you know, news splash shit. I mean, what do you 347 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 1: think Bryce? I hear what the Bryce says. He feels 348 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 1: like they're running out of time, the cops are kicking 349 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,880 Speaker 1: their asses. Something more needs to be done and soon, 350 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: and Mickey encourages a more specific plan blow up a 351 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: courthouse maybe, or shoot the attorney general. You know, I'll 352 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 1: put you like this. Let me just be real with 353 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 1: you for a second. At the end of the day, 354 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: It's cool whatever your game plan is. I mean, I'm 355 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 1: not gonna sit there and tell you you should do 356 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: this and you should do that. I'm not gonna say that, okay, 357 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,119 Speaker 1: but you need to have an objective of what you're 358 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: gonna do. I mean, you know you, like, if Bryce's 359 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: planning on like, okay, I want to blow up a 360 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,560 Speaker 1: motherfucking courthouse, I need to know what the game players 361 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to shoot up a more fucking the Attorney General. 362 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 1: So I could tell him, my dude, this is what's up. 363 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: Because if I tell him my dude, like yeah, they're 364 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 1: gonna come out and hang out for nine months and 365 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: they want to do some training. Mickey says he needs 366 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: to give his contact, the no fuck Around Guy, an 367 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 1: action plan. Otherwise this is all just talk going nowhere. 368 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: But the thing is, at the end of the day, 369 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 1: I gotta tell him, my dude a game plan. I 370 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: can't tell him like, well, they plan on like eight 371 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: or nine months and you tell me, okay, cool, whatever, 372 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: I'll talk to you later. Click Zep won't commit to 373 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: anything concrete, but Bryce he likes. One of Mickey's big ideas. 374 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: That's after the break So Mickey, Zeb and Bryce are 375 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: sitting at a table at a famous Dave's Barbecue restaurant 376 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: in Denver. Zeb's blueprints for revolution are vague and all 377 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 1: over the place. As usual, we'll wait a few months, 378 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: get people angry, and then they'll lash out with violence, 379 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: bringing down the whole system or something like that. And 380 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: Mickey is getting frustrated with all this gas bagging. He 381 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 1: wants to introduce Zeb and Bryce to this person. He 382 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: calls his outlaw biker buddy, a no fuck around guy 383 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: to use Mickey's subscription, who can provide whatever help they need, training, guns, explosives, 384 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 1: you name it. So Mickey reveals to Zeb that Bryce 385 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 1: might have a scheme in mind that the no fuck 386 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 1: around guy could get behind. Bryce has the home address 387 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: of an important elected official, and well what if that 388 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,159 Speaker 1: politician winds up dead shot as he's getting out of 389 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:53,000 Speaker 1: his car or leaving his house. So question is are 390 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: you cool with Are you cool with Bryce? Do what 391 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: he needs to do if he will do it. Okay, 392 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 1: I got the DA's address, Bryce says, referring to the 393 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: district attorney. Well the you mean the attorney general? Better? Yeah, 394 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 1: most thing is it's clear from this conversation that Bryce 395 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: doesn't know that the district attorney and the Attorney General 396 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: are two different people, two different elected positions. Zeb then 397 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: goes on another tangent about how violence against someone like 398 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 1: the attorney general could be the start of something big, 399 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 1: but in typical Zeb fashion, he describes how they'll also 400 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: need to do speeches and propaganda, have a demonstration, maybe 401 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 1: a parade, get people so frustrated that they'll get off 402 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 1: their couches and overthrow the ruling class. Mickey just ignores 403 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 1: most of what Zeb is saying and then brings it 404 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 1: back to Bryce's specific plan, but is seemingly an assassination 405 00:24:56,119 --> 00:25:00,200 Speaker 1: plot against Colorado's Attorney general. All of the this is 406 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: happening over lunch at Famous Days, right. But here's the thing, 407 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: So this is what I'm gonna do. Then I'm just 408 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,760 Speaker 1: gonna let my boy know that. And I'm just gonna 409 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 1: talk to and say, look, homeboy has a plan. How 410 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: he wants to go about it. You want to kind 411 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: of approach it on a different level and that way, 412 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: and I think a good idea too. Us Just to 413 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: cover our asses have we'll have zebadiahs get my weapons, 414 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 1: get my toys, for me. We'll haven't get my toys 415 00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,640 Speaker 1: for me, and then you focus on your game plan 416 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 1: and don't have my boy focus on helping you do 417 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: what you need to do. Okay, I mean you think 418 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: about my wife. Do you know anything about rifles? Bryce? 419 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 1: Ass Bryce at this time has a bullet jammed in 420 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: his rifle and he can't get it out, a circumstance 421 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 1: that would make killing the Attorney General pretty challenging. Yeah, yeah, okay, 422 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,360 Speaker 1: he's get He'll take a look at that ship for you. Okay, yeah, 423 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: I talked about it. He's like, yeah, I will show 424 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: you how to walk that. Mickey is whipping up Bryce 425 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 1: to commit himself to this assassination plan. So you're thinking 426 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: for sure that the eight gen Yeah. Right. Then the 427 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,879 Speaker 1: discussion takes a very weird turn. Zeb listening to everything 428 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 1: and wanting to be part of the conversation, begins to 429 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:21,760 Speaker 1: suggest that they should figure out a way to use 430 00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: Denver's sewer systems to move around the city, as if 431 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: they're I don't know, teenage mutant ninja turtles. Yeah, but 432 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: where's the sewer as where let's use the sewers? Zeb says, 433 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: but where are the sewers Mickey ass they're all under us. 434 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,920 Speaker 1: Zebra applies, Who's whose sewers are we talking about? But 435 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 1: the governor, the police chief, the mayor, the mayor, I 436 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: don't even know where the fuck he looks. The conversation 437 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: continues like this and absurd discussion of sewers, and the 438 00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,120 Speaker 1: three men finish eating and walk outside of the restaurant 439 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: and into the parking lot. Mickey is clearly annoyed, and 440 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: once the steerest targets away from Zeb's ludicrous idea to 441 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: launch the revolution from Denver sewer system and toward Bryce's 442 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: nascent plan to kill an elected official, Mickey says he's 443 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 1: got to let his contact know what's up and soon, 444 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: so I'm gonna him. Know who do you want to get? 445 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 1: The Attorney General? Okay, I'll make it call.

Black power already up? All right? Mickey gets 448 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: in his silver hearse and sums up his meeting with 449 00:27:50,280 --> 00:28:11,080 Speaker 1: Zeb and Bryce. What a dumpster fire. Mickey's playing Fleetwood 450 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: Mac on the car stereo. After a short drive, he 451 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: gets out of the hearse and walks over to meet 452 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 1: with the FBI agents who are sitting in their black Sedan. 453 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: Mickey taps on the car window. FBI agent Scott Dualstrom 454 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 1: opens the door and Mickey hands them the recording device. 455 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: Generals your target. Attorney generals your target. Mickey tells the 456 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 1: agents the FBI now appears to have a serious investigation 457 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: in Denver, a plot to assassinate statewide elected official.
