THE MOTHMAN PHENOMENA (PART ONE) Jun 09, 2024

Show notes

This two part special takes on the story of Mothman- the terror of 2017 Chicago and 1966-67 West Virginia, sorting out the legend, the hype, and the truth about a creature that very likely does exist. We will also speak with author-researcher Lon Strickler, who has spent countless hours interviewing Mothman witnesses in Chicago (51 confirmed sightings, some by groups) and is an expert on Mothman phenomena.

Show notes

Jean LaFitte was a French pirate who spent most of his active years in the Gulf. first attacking slave ships and then reselling the captured slaves, and later attacking merchant vessels and Spanish ships laden with treasure bound for Spain. He was known to have accumulated a pile of treasure, little of which has ever been found. Rumors and legends as to the whereabouts of his hidden treasure abound along the coats of Texas and Louisiana, and we try to cover all that is currently known here plus give LaFitte's history.

Show notes

The mystery of the death of 9 university stidents taking part in an extended winter ski trek may never be solved. Was it a killer yeti? An avalanche? Sound waves? Weapons testing?

SKIES OF THUNDER (PART ONE): THE DEADLY WWII MISSION OVER THE ROOF OF THE WORLD May 19, 2024

Show notes

In April of 1942, the Imperial Japanese Army steamrolled through Burma (present day Myanmar), capturing the only ground route from India to China, thereby cutting off the Allies ability to supply needed arms and supplies to the resistance in China. Supplies would now have to be flown in from India to China across the treacherous Himilayas- the most hazardous air route in the world. Skies of Thunder is the story of epic human endeavor, one in which Allied troops faced the monumental challenges of operationg from airfields hacked from the jungle and taking on "the hump", the fearsome mo9untain barrier that defined the air route. Author Carolie Alexander gives us a riveting account of what Allied heroes faced in the CBI (China-Burma-India) theater in WWII.

THE DYATLOV PASS INCIDENT (PT 1):A COLD WAR TRAGEDY? May 17, 2024

Show notes

Part one of THE DYATLOV PASS INCIDENT: A COLD WAR TRAGEDY deals with one of the greatest unsolved wilderness mysteries known- the mysterious and violent deaths of 9 members of a Russian ski group in the Ural Mountain wilderness in February of 1959. In part one provide the background and explore the characters of the young men and women who died outside their tent in various stages of dress- lacking enough clothing to protect them in sub zero weather- all because they were forced by what looks like great fear to leave their tent at night with no time for preparation. Autopsies showed that many bore defensive bruises, and some had multiple broken ribs, eyeballs and tongues missing, and crushed skulls. Many showed radiation burns. Theories range from a killer yeti to fireballs to Russian KGB to a nuclear weapon. We'll present our theory in part two.

BEST OF 1001 (#17 OF 458) THE LEGEND OF ROGERS RANGERS & THE LOST SILVER MADONNA May 10, 2024

Show notes

On October 3, 1759, a company of nearly 120 men under the command of Major Robert Rogers attacked an Indian Village on the St. Francis River between Montreal and Quebec, killing most of the occupants and looting and burning the Jesuit Mission that supported the town. The loot taken from the church included gold candlesticks, coins, a gold calf, and a ten pound silver statuette of the Madonna holding the baby Jesus.

This was done during the French-Indian War, and as the raiding party escaped southward the French and their Indian allies the Abenaki were in hot pursuit of Rogers Rangers, who had hundreds of hard miles to cross and no food or supplies to support them. the Ranger party split up, many died, and much of the stolen treasure, including the Madonna, was lost in the New England wilderness. The historical value of the Silver Madonna, which has never been found- priceless. This is the story.
