  Speaker 2: series just because it is extremely personal and.

  Speaker 1: I'm suffering from many maladies.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: I guess you would say nuts that I'm not extremely
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: grateful to be going through this process, but it has
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: been quite a journey, so more of that is going
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: to be on its way and something to look forward to.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: But anyways, as promised at the end of the Government
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: Cheese episode, we are back today to discuss our next
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: programmed killer. Today we are going to meet Rodney Alcala,
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: the Dating Game Killer. Now, if I were to give
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: this human sack of program dog shit a new moniker,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: because I love to do that, right, we all enjoyed
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: Government Cheese, and so it's no different with the Dating
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Game Killer quote unquote. He's got to get a cosmic
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: peach moniker. There's no way around it. And if I
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: were to do so, it would have to be something
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: in the neighborhood of Taco Bell Berger, far of Fawcet,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: haircutted freak strangler. But since that's a little long, we
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: can just call him the Bell Beefer.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: So shall we jump right in? Let's do it.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Where does the Bell Beefer story begin. Rodney James Alcala,
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: also known as Rodrigo Jacques al Calla, was born August
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: twenty third, nineteen forty three, also known as John Berger,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: and he was an American serial killer and convicted sex
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: offender who was sentenced to death in California for five
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: murders committed between nineteen seventy seven and nineteen seventy nine.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: While al Calla has.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: Been conclusively linked to nine murders, the true number of
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: his victims remains unknown, but is most likely as high
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: as one hundred and thirty victims. So I'll call A
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: compiled a collection of more than a thousand photographs of women,
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: teenage girls and boys, many in sexually explicit poses, and
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: was a complete dirt bag. Prosecutors have said that I'll
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: call A toyd with his victims strangling them until they
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: lost consciousness and then waiting until they revived, sometimes repeating
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: this process several times before killing them. One police detective
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: described Rodney Alcohola as a killing machine, and others have
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: compared him to the one and only Ted Bundy. He
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: is often referred to as the Dating Game Killer, as
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: he appeared as a contestant on the telege vision show
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: The Dating Game in nineteen seventy eight during the height
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: of his murder spreed, but of course, more recently he
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: will be referred to as the Bell Beefer. So Rodney
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: Alcala again born August twenty third, nineteen forty three, in
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: San Antonio, Texas was the third of four children born
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: to a Mexican American couple Raoul and Anna Maria Gutierrez.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Alcola's father moved the family to Mexico in nineteen fifty one,
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: then abandoned them three years later. In nineteen fifty four,
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: when he was eleven, Alcolo's mother moved him and his
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: two sisters to suburban Laos Angelus. And it's said that
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: Alcola was an academically gifted student who was reasonably popular
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: amongst his peers and was supported by his family. So,
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: as we've talked about with Jeffrey Dahmer and some other
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: program serial Killers and Randy Kraft, Patrick Kearney, he was
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: a really smart guy, extremely so. And I do believe
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: that he was scouted out at an early age for
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: possibly being a psychopath and enrolled in some of these programs.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: So he attended various private schools in the Los Angeles
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: area during his youth and graduated from Cantwell Sacred Heart
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: of Mary High School.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: And here's the ringer.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: In nineteen sixty one, at the age of seventeen, al
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: Khala joined the United States Army Ding Ding Ding to
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: become a paratrooper and served as a cl But how
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: odd during his service, al Caola was noted for being manipulative, vindictive,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: and insubordinate, and was disciplined on several occasions for assaulting
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: young women. So someone with a genius IQ who attended
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: private schools and then joined the United States Army again
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: noted for being manipulative, vindictive, and insubordinate and assaulting young women.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: I do believe that he was scouted out as being
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: a prime candidate for the program to Kill Academy. So
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: in nineteen sixty four, after what was described as a
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: nervous breakdown during which he went a wall and hitchhiked
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: from Fort Bragg in North Carolina to his mother's house
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: in California, al Calla was diagnosed with anti social personality
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: disorder and split personality disorder and estimated to have an
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: IQ of one thirty five by a military psychiatrist. Literally,
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: the bells were probably going off for them immediately when
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: they discovered this guy. So he was subsequently discharged from
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: the Army on medical grounds, just like Randy Craft. Other
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: diagnoses later proposed by various psychiatric experts at Rodney's trials
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: included narcissistic personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, dissociative personality disorder
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: and malignant narcissism with psychopathy and sexual sadism co morbidities. So,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: just like in the case of all of our program killers,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: Belle Beefer is a highly functioning psychopath destined for great
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: strangling adventures and was used in these programs. There is
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: no doubt about it. And the fact that he was
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: dismissed on medical grounds much like Randy Kraft who was
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: destined for great anal adventures, there is a connection here
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: and get this shit. After being discharged from the Army,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: I'll Callage graduated from the UCLA School of the Arts
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: and Architecture. It was later claimed that he would go
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: on to study film under none other than Processed Church
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: ask Roman Polanski at New York University. Similar to Patrick
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: Kearney in our last episode becoming Besties with Lee Harvey Oswald,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: it cannot be overlooked who these programmed killers end up
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: hanging out with. But let's talk about his series of
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: debauchrous murders and rapes that led him to being one
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: of the most prolific serial killers of all time, shall we.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, we're just getting to the good part. Head
