(PART 5/5) In the final episode of the series, Andrew Iden continues his conversation with Tyler DiPeppe, a former member of Atomwaffen Division who now works to help others escape extremism.
Tyler talks about leaving the movement, the work of de-radicalization, and the effort to build a life after hate. He also reflects on family, forgiveness, and what it means to live with the residue of old ideas while trying to help others move past them.
This episode closes the story of Devon Arthurs, Brandon Russell, and the network of hate they helped build — and it points to what comes next: understanding the poison to find an antidote.

(Part 3) Homicide and Hate: The Plea: Devon Arthurs and the Question of Sanity
(Part 3/4) Six years after he murdered his two roommates, Devon Arthurs stands before a judge in Tampa and says he’s ready to change.
But as psychiatrists describe hallucinations, self-choking episodes, and conflicting diagnoses—from schizophrenia to schizoaffective disorder—one question dominates the courtroom:
Is Arthurs genuinely ill… or performing for leniency?
Host Andrew Iden examines how the case twisted through years of mental-competency hearings, how experts view the psychology of radicalization, and what drives young men toward hate.
Featuring analysis from Luke Baumgartner (George Washington University’s Program on Extremism), Hannah Gais (Southern Poverty Law Center), and journalist Ali Winston, this episode unpacks the intersection of ideology, identity, and illness in one of America’s most disturbing true-crime stories.

(Part 2) Homicide and Hate: The Devon Arthurs Murders
(Part 2/4)
Two days after the Tampa double murder committed by Devon Arthurs, police in Key Largo, FL arrest Brandon Russell, a Florida National Guard member, nuclear physics student and the co-founder of the extremist Atomwaffen Division. Also, he's Devon Arthurs's only surviving roommate. What they discover in his car and apartment reveal the terrifying reach of a violent, accelerationist neo-Nazi network.
In this episode, host Andrew Iden investigates how Russell built Atomwaffen from an online forum into an international terror collective, his obsession with extremism even after serving time in federal prison, and the sinister plans he and his followers carried into the 2020s, including a failed plot to take down Baltimore’s power grid.
From bomb-making manuals to propaganda networks, this is the story of how hate mutates, survives, and spreads.
