Project Brazen Launches ‘Fur & Loathing’ Podcast Investigating Unsolved 2014 Gas Attack on Furry Convention


Project Brazen has launched 'Fur & Loathing,' a new podcast investigating the unsolved 2014 chemical attack on a furry fandom convention in Chicago

The six-part “Fur & Loathing,” the first episode of which releases today, investigates what happened on the final night of the convention for furry fandom — a frequently misunderstood global internet subculture centred around anthropomorphic animal characters — when poisonous levels of chlorine gas swept through the corridors of the Hyatt Regency in Rosemont, Illinois. The FBI and local police department began a short-lived investigation in the months after the attack, tracking down attendees and initial suspects, but the case has since been left cold. A decade on, the culprit is still unknown, and questions and conspiracies surrounding the domestic terrorist attack continue to haunt the furry community.
