In part two of his chat with Gary, Brodie takes us inside his journey of escaping the sovereign citizen movement, and shares what he’s learnt since.

[upbeat music] The public has had a long-held fascination with detectives. Detectives see a side of life the average person is never exposed to. I spent 34 years as a cop. For 25 of those years, I was catching killers. That's what I did for a living. I was a homicide detective. I'm no longer just interviewing bad guys, instead I'm taking the public into the world in which I operated. The guests I talk to each week have amazing stories from all sides of the law. The interviews are raw and honest, just like the people I talk to. Some of the content and language might be confronting. That's because no one who comes into contact with crime is left unchanged. Join me now as I take you into this world. [upbeat music] In part two of my chat with former sovereign citizen, poet, writer, and a unique person, Brody Finnigan Forbes, we dissect the sovereign citizen ideology. We point out the failings and dangers of the movement, and we also bring in a bit of poetry, which is a first for iCatchKillers, and as far as I know, the first time it's been on a true crime podcast. I learned a lot about the sovereign citizen movement from Brody, and I think you will too. Have a listen. Brody, welcome back to part two of iCatchKillers.
