Unsolved: Is there a serial killer on the U.S. border? Mar 28, 2020

Show notes

It's no secret that the border between the United States and Mexico has been the subject of recent, intensely divisive debate. There have been numerous reports (some more reliable than others) detailing the rise or decline of crime along the border -- after all, chaotic times create opportunities for crime -- but one story slipped through the cracks. It appears that there was an active serial killer on the US border, and he worked for Uncle Sam. Join Ben Bowlin, Matt Frederick and Noel Brown for the Stuff They Don't Want You to Know.

Unsolved: The Mystery of North Sentinel Island Mar 28, 2020

Show notes

India controls numerous islands in the Indian Ocean, and they have a strange set of rules for North Sentinel Islands -- a tiny, remote place most people wouldn't visit anyway. You see, the Indian government maintains a 'zone of exclusion' surrounding the island, with no ships, helicopters or people allowed within miles of the shore. Ordinarily one might assume this is a secret military base or the site of an environmental disaster -- but the real answer is even stranger. Join Stuff They Don't Want You to Know's Ben Bowlin, Matt Frederick and Noel Brown to learn more about the mystery of North Sentinel Island.

Unsolved: The Hidden Tomb of Genghis Khan Mar 28, 2020

Show notes

Genghis Khan was one of the world's most successful conquerors, and his empire left an indelible mark across Eurasia. Yet upon his death his body was spirited away to an unmarked grave, and everyone associated with the burial -- so far as we know -- was put to death in an effort to keep the location secret. So what exactly happened to Genghis Khan? Could it be possible that someone actually knows where it is, and has somehow kept the location hidden for almost 800 years? Join Ben Bowlin, Matt Frederick and Noel Brown for the Stuff They Don't Want You to Know.
