QAA Podcast

Today the QAA crew is taking a small rest day from their melted algorithms but have no fear dear listener, we won't leave you hanging. Last week Jack and Julian began releasing their new Cursed Media mini series and today, in lieu of a usual main episode, we would like to share the first episode of what they have been cooking up. Raising Hell.

In 1988, federal regulators closed Omaha’s Franklin Community Federal Credit Union after discovering that nearly $40 million had disappeared. The institution’s manager, Lawrence E. “Larry” King Jr., was a charismatic civic leader and political operator who had cultivated relationships far beyond Nebraska. King’s public image, and the astonishing scale of the missing money, made the collapse a major scandal. But as investigators began following the financial trail, an even more disturbing story took shape.

In Chapter One of Raising Hell, “Once Upon a Time in Omaha,” Jack LaRoche and Julian Feeld return to the origins of the Franklin story: not the lurid mythology that later grew around it, but the vulnerable children, troubled households, foster-care placements, and child-welfare institutions from which the first allegations emerged. The episode examines the experiences of young people who passed through a system that was supposed to protect them, including Boys Town and Nebraska’s foster-care network, and who repeatedly encountered adults unwilling or unable to recognize what was happening around them.

At the center of this chapter is Eulice Washington. Her disclosures helped expose documented abuse inside an Omaha household and opened a path toward far more explosive allegations involving Larry King and other influential people. What began as an investigation into the treatment of children would soon collide with the Franklin credit-union case, drawing in social workers, journalists, law-enforcement agencies, politicians, private investigators, and witnesses whose accounts would be alternately ignored, sensationalized, challenged, and transformed.

Content warning: This episode contains discussions of child abuse, sexual exploitation, and institutional neglect.

Katie Souza is an ex-meth cook turned author and founder of Katie Souza Ministries. Why did she start to claim in 2026 that she is the mother of an alien hybrid child named “Starburst?”

Travis kicks us off recounting how his broken algorithm brought Souza across his radar and what he learned as a result that caused him to ask, “What the hell is going on with American evangelicals?” After he details Souza’s history Jake jumps in with a QAA book report on Souza’s latest book, Star Gods, in which she outlines how alien greys came on Christmas eve and implanted a device in her to steal her eggs. Our resident alien guy, Brad, listens on in disappointment as the book slowly turns from aliens to God.

Later we welcome back Will Sommer for his 10th appearance on the pod to discuss his reporting on the matter and what we know about these special government employee influencers and the role they may be playing in the Pentagon.

Today Liv brings the boys her best attempt at a “good news” episode without straying too far from our usual content. For our little cheat day, Liv has prepared a fun hour of discussing the investing failures of one Leopold Aschenbrenner whose AI centered investment firm, Situational Awareness, recently set a new record for the largest trade loss in history. 35 billion dollars. In Liv’s words, “this isn’t necessarily a good news episode but it is very funny”.
