American Vigilante

By: Crowd Network
  • Summary

  • KC is the American Vigilante - A hugely complex, intelligent, contradictory man who could save your life but end it too. Who leads a group of violent men standing on the blurred line between right and wrong, between revenge and redemption. A man you want on your side when it all falls apart. American Vigilante is true crime, but so much more. It’s saving abducted children, it’s stepping beyond the law. It’s rescue missions, assassination attempts and last-gasp protection. It’s all the stuff you hope never comes to you, until it does. Former BBC Journalist Sam Walker presents this Crowd Network original. She’s been speaking to KC for months and has recorded everything he’s told her. You’ll need to listen to make your own mind up, but you might never be the same again. It’s shocking, inspiring, frightening and thought-provoking. It’ll change how you see the world, and it might change how you move within it. Everyone thinks they’re safe, until they aren’t. Everyone thinks they know how they’ll react, until the darkness comes.

Compelling & sad look into a storyteller

I started listening to this with my own doubts. By the middle of the first episode, I felt like I was listening to a family member who can tell & embellish stories like no other. Listening to this person felt just like my family member and I genuinely liked him. By the 2nd episode, I felt he reminded me of another family member who suffers from a severe issue of pathological lying. Truly I started to feel disenchanted by the stories and more sad for this man. He creates a world that is fantastical, heroic and insanely impressive. He makes my heart ache in so many ways because this is the world he wishes/wished he lived ... saving those who are worthy in his eyes. He wants to be this person - probably on a lot smaller scale. And, getting the opportunity to tell this allows his to feel worthy and honestly I love him and the host for that. And to be clear, I also love him for his ability to craft such fantastical stories. I also love this host. She is respectful, doesn't allow her true opinions to be known and, ultimately, cares for this individual immensely. I get that. This story is more about a human relationship ... and about how she allowed this person to have his voice heard. It doesnt matter if it is real. It is compelling and heartbreaking. I personally think it is more of a call to start listening and respecting everyone - no matter what - and to make everyone's voices feel validated. It touched my soul. So well done.

Wrong Genre

This should be filed under the Fiction/Mental Health genres, not True Crime! I would not have listened to it, but if I did, I would still give it a negative review!
The fact the one of the reviews actually compared this podcast to Serial is actually offensive! 🤦🏻‍♀️ This is a Brit housewife who moved to the US with her husband, got bored, discovered true-crime podcasts, met a delusional retired/unemployed/mental-asylum-runaway who sounds a lot like Trump, he fed her a load of crap about his imaginary vigilante alter ego which she believed, so she decided to have her own "true crime" podcast. Sam, I'm sorry petal but KC is full poo and you got got. 😂
