150: Anni Dewani, Part 3: Gugulethu, South Africa Oct 22, 2026

Show notes

Over the last two episodes, we've followed the story of Anni Dewani from her life in Sweden and complicated relationship with Shrien Dewani, to their lavish wedding in India and the honeymoon in South Africa where everything changed. On November 13, 2010, Anni and Shrien were riding through Cape Town with their driver,
Zola Tongo, when their vehicle was taken over by two armed men. Tongo was released. Then Shrien. Anni was not. The following morning, the 27-year-old newlywed was found dead in the backseat of the abandoned Volkswagen.
But what initially appeared to be a random carjacking quickly became something much more complicated. Police identified the men inside the vehicle, and the investigation eventually led back to Tongo himself. He admitted the hijacking had been staged and made an explosive allegation: Shrien Dewani had hired him to arrange Anni's murder. Shrien denied it. And that left one enormous question at the center of this case. Could prosecutors prove that Anni's husband had actually planned her murder—or had the men responsible for her death accused an innocent man in an attempt to save themselves?
It would take nearly four years before that question finally reached a courtroom. This is Part Three of the story of Anni Dewani: the trial and the verdict.
Listen as we dive into South Africa, the case of Anni Dewani, and how to stay alive on vacation.

149: Anni Dewani, Part 2: Gugulethu, South Africa Oct 15, 2026

Show notes

Last week, in Part One of our three-part series on the murder of Anni Dewani, we followed Anni from her life in Sweden to her whirlwind relationship with Shrien Dewani, their lavish wedding in India, and the honeymoon that was supposed to mark the beginning of their life together. Instead, less than 48 hours after arriving in Cape Town, everything changed.
On the night of November 13, 2010, Anni and Shrien were riding through Gugulethu with their driver, Zola Tongo, when two armed men took control of their vehicle. Tongo was forced out. Then Shrien. But Anni was driven away. The following morning, the Volkswagen was found abandoned in Khayelitsha. Inside, police found 27-year-old Anni dead in the backseat. She had been shot through the neck.
At first, it appeared to be a horrific carjacking that had ended in murder. But investigators were about to discover that the story might not be nearly that simple. Because within days, arrests would be made. And then someone involved would start talking.n What he told police would turn the investigation completely upside down— and transform Anni Dewani's murder into an international sensation.
This is Part Two: the investigation.
Listen as we dive into South Africa, the case of Anni Dewani, and how to stay alive on vacation.

148: Anni Dewani, Part 1: Gugulethu, South Africa Oct 08, 2026

Show notes

Anni Dewani had just gotten married and was supposed to be on the trip of a lifetime—a honeymoon in Cape Town, South Africa. But late one night, a taxi ride took a terrifying turn. The car was hijacked. Anni’s husband made it out alive. Anni did not.
At first, it looked like a random and devastating crime. But almost immediately, questions began to surface. Stories would change. Accusations would be made. And what happened that night would become the center of an international murder case that would take years to unravel.
Over the next three episodes, we’re going inside the honeymoon, the murder, and the investigation that followed—where almost nothing is as simple as it first appears. This is Part One of the story of Anni Dewani.
Listen as we dive into South Africa, the case of Anni Dewani, and how to stay alive on vacation.

146: Bartt Felt: Valley of the Gods, Utah Sep 24, 2026

Show notes

In March of 2018, 46-year-old Bartt Felt was driving from Michigan to Arizona to visit his father. But while passing through a remote stretch of Utah, something went wrong.
His ankle monitor last pinged near the Mexican Hat Bridge, where his backpack and a troubling note were later discovered. His vehicle was found abandoned miles away in the Valley of the Gods. But Bartt was gone.
For the next five years, no one knew what happened to him — or what took place during his final hours in the Utah desert.
Listen as we dive into the Valley of the Gods, the case of Bartt Felt, and how to stay alive on vacation.

145: Casey MacPherson and Caleb Guillory, Part 2: Anguilla Sep 17, 2026

Show notes

Last week, we followed childhood friends Casey MacPherson-Pomeroy and Caleb Guillory to Anguilla, where a New Year’s trip ended in two sudden and deeply mysterious deaths. What first looked like a possible overdose quickly became something much harder to explain. Both men reportedly had lethal levels of drugs in their systems. But Caleb also had injuries that pointed to something far more violent. The four people who survived that night were questioned, released, and eventually returned to the United States.
And that’s where Part Two begins. Because once everyone came home, the story started changing. Secrets surfaced. Families became suspicious. Private investigators got involved. And a $1.5 million life-insurance policy would eventually drag the mystery into federal court. Today, we’re digging into everything that happened after Anguilla — and the theories about what really happened that night.
Listen as we dive into Anguilla, the case of Casey MacPherson and Caleb Guillory, and how to stay alive on vacation.

144: Casey MacPherson & Caleb Guillory, Part 1 Sep 10, 2026

Show notes

In December 2018, childhood friends Casey MacPherson-Pomeroy and Caleb Guillory were together on the Caribbean island of Anguilla — surrounded by white sand, turquoise water, and people they trusted. On the night of December 30th, they went out for drinks. Hours later, both men were dead.
At first, it appeared something they consumed may have been responsible. But when the toxicology results came back — and the details surrounding their deaths began to emerge — the story became much darker.
Two friends. One night in paradise. This is Part One of Casey and Caleb's story.

143: Hannah Upp, Part 3: St. Thomas Island Sep 03, 2026

Show notes

Twice, Hannah Upp disappeared. And twice, against incredible odds, she was found alive. After her second disappearance, Hannah moved to St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where she built a new life in a place she called paradise. For years, there were no more episodes.
Then, in September 2017, Hurricane Irma devastated the island. In the chaotic days that followed, 32-year-old Hannah Upp vanished for a third time. But this time, Hannah wouldn't simply reappear a few days later. This is the third and final chapter of the mysterious disappearance of Hannah Upp.

142: Hannah Upp, Part 2: Wheaton, Maryland Aug 27, 2026

Show notes

Last week, we told you the story of Hannah Upp, a 23-year-old teacher who mysteriously disappeared in New York City in 2008. Nearly three weeks later, Hannah was found alive in New York Harbor with no memory of where she'd been or what she'd been doing. Doctors diagnosed her with dissociative fugue, and Hannah eventually returned to her life, hoping it would never happen again. For five years, it didn't.
Then, in September 2013, Hannah was living and working in Maryland when she suddenly disappeared again. Was it happening again? This is Part Two of the mysterious story of Hannah Upp.
Listen as we dive into Maryland, the case of Hannah Upp, and how to stay alive on vacation.

141: Hannah Upp, Part 1: New York City, NY Aug 20, 2026

Show notes

In the summer of 2008, 23-year-old teacher Hannah Upp was living in New York City when she suddenly vanished.
There was no warning, no explanation, and seemingly no reason for Hannah to walk away from her life. Her family and friends had no idea where she had gone—or what might have happened to her. As the days passed, strange clues began to surface, but instead of providing answers, they only deepened the mystery. Where was Hannah Upp? And how could a young woman simply disappear in one of the busiest cities in the world?
This is part one of Hannah's story.
Listen as we dive into New York City, the case of Hannah Upp, and how to stay alive on vacation.
