Deadman’s Curse: Volcanic Gold
In 1931 On a night cold enough to freeze your bones, a larger than life prospector, in search of a legendary lost gold mine in the wilderness of British Columbia, disappears without a trace. Known for his solid gold teeth and team of black stallions, he was a force of nature. So was he murdered? Did he fake his own death? Or was he the latest victim of a curse?
40 years earlier Slumach was accused of murder and from the gallows it is said that set a curse on anyone who searched for his hidden gold mine just before he was hanged. Since then many have sought his fortune and have met their demise.
Deadman’s Curse: Volcanic Gold is a historical mystery podcast hosted by Kru Williams from History Television’s hit original series Deadman’s Curse: The Legend of the Lost Gold. Join Kru and the rest of the team from Deadman’s Curse, along with historians and experts as they investigate the life and disappearance of legendary prospector Volcanic Brown, and in doing so, retrace the steps of fortune-seekers through the 20th century who went looking for a motherlode worth billions… and never came back. It’s a gold-fevered expedition through time itself and straight into the heart…of a curse.
Lady Bird
In the years following her time in the White House, Lady Bird Johnson spent countless hours detailing her life experiences with historians for the LBJ Presidential Library. To bring her incredible story to life, host Jade Emerson unearthed those never-before-played audio files and interviewed historians, White House insiders and the people who knew and loved Claudia Alta “Lady Bird” Johnson. This intimate portrait begins deep in the woods in East Texas and follows her path as she transforms from a shy, quiet child to a powerful political advisor and a beloved Texas icon. “Lady Bird” is produced by The Drag, the production house behind the popular true crime podcast series “Darkness.”

Where time may vary the instruments of war, but the combat experience remains the same.
Computer Freaks
This is the untold history of how the internet almost didn’t happen. It’s an ode to fathers and daughters. And it’s a tale about the origins of the man-computer symbiosis that’s still profoundly relevant to our society today.
Host Christine Haughney Dare-Bryan, an editor-at-large at Inc., is a James Beard Award-winning journalist who has worked for NBC News as well as three of the nation’s largest newspapers, and who created the Emmy-nominated Netflix series Rotten. Dare-Bryan’s connection to the story is deeply personal—her father, Joseph Haughney, was one of the internet’s founding fathers.
Dare-Bryan spent 10 months traveling the nation interviewing these iconic founders about their work, and how it all led to the economy—and society—we inhabit today. In this six-episode series, she explores the invention, the contention, the bragging, the fighting, and the decisions that have led to our digital life.
Just as the book Hamilton explored the founding fathers of democracy in the United States, this project explores the founding fathers of the internet and how their high-stakes battles over ownership, internet privacy, internet protocols, and internet access mirror what we face today.
By looking to the past, Computer Freaks dives into modern debates: Could we have prevented online harm from the start? What is the balance between free speech and online content moderation? How much human work should be delegated to technology and A.I.? And what direction should this growing labyrinthine network of computers take?
The narrative behind Computer Freaks stretches from after World War II through the 1980s, and up to the consequences we face from this technology today. During that early period, the federal government was funding the first workable prototype of the internet, called the Arpanet, but fighting with researchers at MIT about just how far access to the Arpanet should extend.
Computer Freaks tells the dramatic, untold history of the internet straight from the mouths of its pioneering inventors: Len Kleinrock, Robert Kahn, Charley Kline, Steve Crocker, Vinton Cerf, and Bob Metcalfe, among many others. Exclusive interviews uncover hidden stories found nowhere else about the Arpanet, online harm, hacking, authentication, cybersecurity, Ethernet, TCP IP, packet switching, queuing theory, and the early contributions of women in tech.
And, perhaps most important, this series is a love letter from a daughter to an aging father and the world-changing legacy he will leave behind.
