10-Minute Mystery: The electrifying debut of Ray Caldwell

In 1919, the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox had both given up trying to tame the very talented but hard-drinking pitching phenom Ray Caldwell. The Cleveland Indians had a plan to revive his career with a bizarre contract, but never expected his first game would require him to survive a lightning strike to win the game.

Ep. 178 - The Beverly Hills Supper Club fire Apr 25, 2022

Show notes

In 1977, a fire at the Beverly Hills Supper Club in Southgate, Ky. killed 165 people. More than half were from Ohio. In the past decade, two new books on the subject argue that the cause wasn't an accident, but arson set by the Cleveland mafia against a business owner who wouldn't sell to them.
