11
00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:46.359
Sure, my name is Claire o'donahue and I'm the host

12
00:00:46.679 --> 00:00:52.960
of the History of Murder podcast. I'm also a true

13
00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:57.560
crime TV producer and a mystery writer, so all things

14
00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:02.000
murder pretty much, and the History of Murder podcast is

15
00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:04.560
sort of a combination. Well, we like to say we

16
00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:07.599
put crimes in context. We tell you about the crime,

17
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:09.680
but we tell you about the events that were happening

18
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:11.640
that impacted the crime as well.

19
00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:15.120
Well, you've always been into books, right, always. Yeah, So

20
00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:17.319
started off with a writer and then you got into

21
00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:20.040
we'll talk about it later. You had really good books

22
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:22.480
out there, so then you went into TV and that's

23
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:24.400
kind of what your forte was it's true grime on that.

24
00:01:24.879 --> 00:01:28.000
Yes. Yes, most of the stuff that I've worked on

25
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:30.799
in TV is lots of lots sort of some famous

26
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:35.079
ones like Forensic Files and the first forty eight and

27
00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:40.359
lots and lots of of different types of true crime

28
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:43.040
shows that I've worked on, and I've interviewed a lot

29
00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:45.280
of different people in that world as a result.

30
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:48.120
Cool. Have you always been a Halloween fan?

31
00:01:48.599 --> 00:01:54.359
I love Halloween. You know, it's originally an Irish holiday

32
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:57.359
and my parents are from Ireland, so it is something

33
00:01:57.359 --> 00:01:58.519
that's sort of in the.

34
00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:01.519
DNA, I guess, so, well, we might as well start celebrating.

35
00:02:01.640 --> 00:02:02.760
Today is Halloween.

36
00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:16.280
I'm the one shot red hair.

37
00:02:23.520 --> 00:02:26.680
Well, happy Halloween, are you goblins and ghosts out there?

38
00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:30.120
Halloween it means Hallows Evening. That's the night before Hallow's

39
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:33.000
Day and that's where all the Catholic Saints are honored. Now,

40
00:02:33.080 --> 00:02:35.479
by the late eighteen hundreds, like Claire said, kids in

41
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:38.759
Scotland and Ireland, they would dress as costumes and go

42
00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:41.960
door to door and get food. Then in trick or treating,

43
00:02:41.960 --> 00:02:44.280
and that's starting Canada in nineteen twenty seven. So by

44
00:02:44.280 --> 00:02:46.639
the nineteen thirties, trick or treating. It was all across

45
00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:50.960
Canada and the United States. So today, according to Statistics,

46
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:54.280
forty eight percent of you will wear a costume, forty

47
00:02:54.280 --> 00:02:56.879
six percent of you, yeah, you're gonna carve a pumpkin,

48
00:02:57.280 --> 00:02:59.680
sixteen percent of you're gonna dress up your dog, and

49
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:02.759
you're gonna ptend like you weren't home. Where do you

50
00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:04.199
fall in on those Claire.

51
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:06.879
Oh, I I it's been a while since I won't

52
00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:08.800
a costume, I'll admit that. But what I like to

53
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:13.960
do is get lots of Halloween candy and enjoy opening

54
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:17.800
the door to many many, hopefully many many trick or

55
00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:21.240
treaters that will come by, and then getting to eat

56
00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:23.039
the left over candy if there is any.

57
00:03:23.879 --> 00:03:25.560
Yeah, I had to go out again. I kind of

58
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:27.360
ate my Halloween candy. I bought it a little too

59
00:03:27.400 --> 00:03:30.120
early this year. Some more. Yeah.

60
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:32.919
I used to live in Sleepy Hollow, New York, which

61
00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:36.120
is famous, of course for the legend of Sleepy Hollow,

62
00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:38.840
and I think they used to bust kids in because

63
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:42.159
I'd go through thirteen or fourteen bags of candy every year,

64
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:46.919
and eventually I would be in that twenty one percent

65
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:49.719
and I have to turn off the lights because we

66
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:50.879
would run out of.

67
00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:53.759
Candy, right, and that the whole thing. You hope they

68
00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:56.520
realize that once the fourth front pork lights out, kids,

69
00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:58.719
you're done, you know, don't go up there anymore.

70
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:00.639
You're done. Yeah, you're done.

71
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:01.120
Yeah.

72
00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:03.719
And usually by that time it's the older kids, because

73
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:06.319
the younger kids come early so they can buy their

74
00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:06.879
own candy.

75
00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:08.639
And it looks like it's gonna be a nice weather

76
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:10.199
all across the nation, so all the kids should be

77
00:04:10.199 --> 00:04:11.639
able to have a pretty good Halloween this year.

78
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.759
Good, good, Absolutely, it's a really lovely if it's a

79
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:18.199
nice day. It is. Actually, I do remember that as

80
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:21.319
a kid, A lovely fun experience.

81
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:24.120
Yeah, it's just a fun day. Don't read too much

82
00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:27.199
into just enjoy the day. It's nothing wrong with that, absolutely,

83
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:30.240
all right, this is going on entertainment. In October thirty first,

84
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:33.000
let's goat your twenty twelve, the number one album was

85
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:35.560
Babble by Month for and Sons Room five had the

86
00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:38.759
number one song with one More Night Across.

87
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:40.800
My Heart and I Hope You Die.

88
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:54.279
I'll Only Stayed with You Monting a million times Only.

89
00:04:54.160 --> 00:05:00.319
Stay Taylor Swift. She had the number countries on with

90
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:02.319
we are never ever ever getting back together.

91
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:13.199
On getting together, to.

92
00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:16.519
Your friends, to.

93
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:25.439
Getting back together.

94
00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:29.240
The number one book was The Panther by Nelson de Mill.

95
00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:29.959
You read that.

96
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:32.160
One, No, I haven't aught to look for it.

97
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:35.439
The top movie was wreck itt Ralph. Now Ralph, he

98
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:37.680
is tired of being a bad guy. He wants to

99
00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:41.639
be the hero of a video game. Well, he accidentally

100
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:44.959
brings in an enemy that probably takes out the entire arcade.

101
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:48.199
So Ralph is voiced by John c Riley. Then you've

102
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:51.639
got Sarah Silverman and Jacqueline Brayer in there. Okay, so

103
00:05:51.680 --> 00:05:53.759
after you started your career, how'd you end up in

104
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:54.079
the TV?

105
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:57.759
Actually? I got a job on a show called Simply

106
00:05:57.839 --> 00:06:03.360
Quilts on HGTV because I make quilts and the show

107
00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:07.639
was looking for people who could speak the language as

108
00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:11.639
all hobbies have a particular kind of set of words

109
00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:16.759
and phrases, and could write. So I fit perfectly into that.

110
00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:20.319
And I worked on that show for four years on

111
00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:24.240
and off, and then just kept going. So worked in

112
00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:27.240
TV in different fields, and little by little made my

113
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:32.040
way from that kind of television to more documentary and

114
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:32.639
true crime.

115
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:35.560
It's kind of hard to say, is there any true

116
00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:38.160
crime that really haunts you, since we're talking about Halloween

117
00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:41.040
that even to this day is just kind of represents evil.

118
00:06:41.399 --> 00:06:45.319
Oh gosh, yeah, I think, you know. I think the

119
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:48.319
hardest interviews I've done are with family members of victims,

120
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:52.160
because it doesn't matter if the murder happened, you know,

121
00:06:52.279 --> 00:06:56.519
a year ago or twenty years ago. Family members are

122
00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:01.079
haunted by it. They hold the grief very strang wrongly obviously,

123
00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:05.519
they hold the thoughts of what their loved one must

124
00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:08.560
have must have been thinking in the final few moments.

125
00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:13.800
So those are hard and uh and I didn an

126
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:17.680
interview one time with a killer in Montana who the

127
00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:21.240
guards told me that they would stop the interview if

128
00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:25.920
he tried to kill me, which I was very grateful for,

129
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:28.720
and I was like, yeah, you should totally do that.

130
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:31.879
If he tries to kill me, you should you should stop.

131
00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:36.279
He was very nice though, he actually was extremely nice

132
00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:39.639
to me, So there you go. Uh, but I remember

133
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.079
that moment of just I've interviewed a lot of killers.

134
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:45.639
That was the only time that anyone's ever suggested somebody

135
00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:48.720
might do me harm.

136
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:48.000
But.

137
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:53.480
That one, Yeah, I went back to my hotel that

138
00:07:53.600 --> 00:07:55.160
night and went, Wow, that was weird.

139
00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:58.399
That's true. You might have a really good subject to

140
00:07:58.439 --> 00:08:01.519
because everybody all these big murder cases on TV and

141
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:03.879
everyone that neverbody watches it, and you know, they're intrigued

142
00:08:03.879 --> 00:08:05.759
by it, and then it comes out, Okay, it's over.

143
00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:08.600
People forget about. There's victims and families and members on

144
00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:10.160
both sides. It is not over for them.

145
00:08:10.480 --> 00:08:13.079
It's never over for them. It's never over for the

146
00:08:13.519 --> 00:08:16.279
families of the victim. It's never over for the families

147
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:21.480
of the killer. I've interviewed those as well, and they live,

148
00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:25.399
you know, with a different kind of haunting, right the families.

149
00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:28.959
A mother of a woman who was murdered. I remember

150
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:31.360
her saying to me that she felt the most sorry

151
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:35.240
for the mother of the killer, because that woman would

152
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:37.679
have to live with what her son had done, and

153
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:40.960
at least she could live with the memories of her daughter.

154
00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:47.200
It's it just it's a it's a ripple effect that goes,

155
00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:50.679
you know, to both families, to the communities, to everyone

156
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:56.559
who knew both people involved. It really yeah, it. Having

157
00:08:56.639 --> 00:08:59.120
had an up close and personal seat to it for

158
00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:04.399
a number of years, you really see it. You really

159
00:09:04.440 --> 00:09:07.519
see it for what it really is and not not

160
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:09.720
just the sort of and I'm as guilty of this

161
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:13.080
as anyone, the sort of entertainment of it, but you

162
00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:14.159
see the reality of it.

163
00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:16.200
Yeah, I was just going to ask that that's a

164
00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:18.759
fine line you have to walk so you're not exploiting them,

165
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:21.159
but yet you're getting their story across. You really have to.

166
00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:22.720
It's kind of a fine line there.

167
00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:25.840
It's a very fine line. And believe me, I have

168
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:30.240
asked people why are they doing it? And a lot

169
00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:32.600
of times what I find from family members is what

170
00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:36.360
they say is when you go to court, you have

171
00:09:36.440 --> 00:09:40.679
to sit there quietly while the defense attorney drags down

172
00:09:40.919 --> 00:09:45.080
your family member or friend because they're trying to get

173
00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:49.799
their client off right and you can't say anything. That

174
00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:53.799
is how the justice system works. And being on television

175
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:57.039
is a chance for them to write the ship and

176
00:09:57.159 --> 00:10:00.480
to talk about this person that they love in a

177
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:05.679
full way, and maybe in some cases it also is

178
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:08.720
a sense of warning to someone who might be in

179
00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:11.639
a similar situation to their loved one that they could

180
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:15.320
potentially hey, you know, these are the red flags that

181
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:21.440
were ignored. Hopefully you won't ignore them. So we try

182
00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:24.080
to do right by people. We try to be respectful

183
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:29.159
of people, and I've been lucky. I think most of

184
00:10:29.200 --> 00:10:31.279
the stuff that I've worked on does do that. I

185
00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:33.759
don't think everyone does that. And I think in the

186
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:37.320
podcast we also even though these are cases that happened

187
00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:40.600
one hundred, two hundred, three hundred years ago, there are

188
00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:44.600
still people, there's still families, They everybody might be dead,

189
00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:49.000
but it was still a real person and we try

190
00:10:49.000 --> 00:10:51.720
to be respectful of them and what happened in that

191
00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:52.720
situation as well.

192
00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:54.759
So what have you found most that most of the

193
00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:56.639
murders are committed by great or lust?

194
00:10:57.039 --> 00:10:59.440
You know, I think it's probably split fifty to fifty,

195
00:11:00.679 --> 00:11:03.000
and I think those are two of the biggest things.

196
00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:06.840
I think here's the number one reason I think murders

197
00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:10.799
are committed entitlement. I really do think that a lot

198
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:16.320
of killers feel entitled to the love, the money, the position,

199
00:11:16.600 --> 00:11:21.200
the whatever, and they and it's weirdly not as personal.

200
00:11:22.399 --> 00:11:26.279
It's you're standing in the way of my having custody

201
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.039
of the kids, or my owning the business full time,

202
00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:32.840
or quiet in the neighborhood, or my particular point of

203
00:11:32.879 --> 00:11:35.840
view being heard or whatever it is. You're standing in

204
00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:38.000
the way of it. So I'm going to kill you.

205
00:11:38.960 --> 00:11:41.720
But I really think it's more entitlement than anything else.

206
00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:43.559
Yeah, I hadn't looked at that. I was simple like

207
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:45.440
greedor less. But I think you nail it on the

208
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:47.600
head right there. I think entitlement. You're probably right. That

209
00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:50.080
sounds right. All right, Let's see what happened.

210
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:53.759
It's scary but true.

211
00:11:53.559 --> 00:11:53.879
All right.

212
00:11:53.919 --> 00:11:56.919
What happened in October the thirty first, In fifteen seventeen,

213
00:11:57.039 --> 00:12:01.120
Martin Luther he started the Protestant Reformation. His ninety five

214
00:12:01.159 --> 00:12:03.639
thesises is what was wrong with the Catholic Church. He

215
00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:08.159
ended up sending it to the Archbishop of Brandenburg in Germany. Now,

216
00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:10.480
Luther had been a priest and amongk for about ten

217
00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:12.720
years when he did this. Now there's a story about

218
00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:15.080
him nayling the thesis is to the door of a church.

219
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:18.000
And now that didn't happen. It's just get talking. According

220
00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:20.799
to Luther, he said that basically he just wanted to

221
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:24.080
start a discussion. Well, his ninety five thesis they made

222
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:25.879
it all the way to the pope, and when the

223
00:12:25.879 --> 00:12:29.519
Pope burnt about it, yep, Luther was immediately excommunicated and

224
00:12:29.519 --> 00:12:33.159
had to run for his life. But their Protestant Reformation,

225
00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:36.240
ye split year and a half. The northern half kind

226
00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:38.399
of went to be the Protestants and the southern half

227
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:41.960
mainly went to be State Catholic. And that's general, it's

228
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:44.000
not just one hundred percent. That's kind of what happened

229
00:12:44.120 --> 00:12:46.679
eighteen forty six. The Donner Party, we've all heard about

230
00:12:46.720 --> 00:12:49.679
them today. They realized that they were stuck. They could

231
00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:52.679
not go over the Sierra Nevadam mountains and they couldn't

232
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:54.440
go back, so they had just set up a camp

233
00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:56.960
for the winner. So you kind of heard about some

234
00:12:57.000 --> 00:12:59.559
stories that most people don't hear about the Donner Party, right.

235
00:13:00.120 --> 00:13:04.559
Yeah. There were two Indian guides who were named Lewis

236
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:09.480
and Salvador. They were shot and cannibalized around January eighth

237
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:13.279
of eighteen forty seven. It's also possible that Tamsen Donner

238
00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:17.240
was murdered in March of eighteen forty seven, but we

239
00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:20.600
don't know that for sure. So, yeah, there was murders.

240
00:13:21.200 --> 00:13:24.600
They didn't just eat people that had died, they killed

241
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:25.120
people too.

242
00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:27.759
That dirty sigh right there.

243
00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:54.080
Okay, Happy birthday Nevada today. In eighteen sixty four, Nevada

244
00:13:54.080 --> 00:13:57.440
became the twenty sixth state the Spanish named it Nevada

245
00:13:57.480 --> 00:14:00.360
for the snow covered mountain ranges. Even though most of

246
00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:04.480
the state is desert. Eighty six percent of Nevada is uninhabited,

247
00:14:04.519 --> 00:14:06.399
but where people do live it is kind of cool.

248
00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:10.039
The capitalist Carson City. The highest point is Boundary Peak

249
00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:12.960
at thirteen and forty seven feet, and I'm not going

250
00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:14.799
to climb it, so I'll just take your word for it.

251
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:17.799
The Nevada state bird is the mountain blue jay, and

252
00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:22.320
the fish appropriate for today is the cutthroat trout. The

253
00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:26.159
flower is sagebrus the reptile desert tortoise the mammal desert

254
00:14:26.200 --> 00:14:28.919
big horned sheep. Some people who were born in Nevada

255
00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:33.480
include tennis player Andre Agassy, baseball's Bryce Harper, actress Don Wells,

256
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:37.279
race car drivers Kurt and Kyle Busch, and and excuse me,

257
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:40.639
Dan Reynolds, the lead singer of Imagined Dragons.

258
00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:44.080
Right, then you know what their nickname is. Nope, they

259
00:14:44.080 --> 00:14:44.960
are the Silver State.

260
00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:45.960
Oh is that right?

261
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:49.240
Yeah, at the time, Nevada has actually had more silver

262
00:14:49.240 --> 00:14:51.200
come out of than anyplace else in the United States.

263
00:14:51.440 --> 00:14:54.080
Oh yeah, and now they keep all the silver when

264
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:55.559
people go there to gamble.

265
00:14:55.279 --> 00:14:58.759
Exactly except now they've brought in a lot of gold too.

266
00:15:00.639 --> 00:15:04.320
Yeah, and and and probably bitcoin.

267
00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:06.879
That's right, that'd be kind of interesting to hear. But

268
00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:09.600
they bet they are gambling that when you think.

269
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:13.360
I would assume so I don't know anything about bitcoin,

270
00:15:13.480 --> 00:15:15.759
but I would assume that people do gamble.

271
00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:17.799
It all right. Well, in nineteen thirty and the first

272
00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:20.080
paved highway that ran coast to coast across the United

273
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:23.240
States opened up. It's called the Lincoln Highway. So you're

274
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:26.200
in Illinois, so probably a Lincoln fan, huh?

275
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:30.120
I love I ram Lincoln. Yes, he was a defense

276
00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:34.360
attorney in multiple murder trials, by the way, and we

277
00:15:34.600 --> 00:15:36.399
have a Lincoln Highway here as well. I don't know

278
00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:39.840
if it's the same, if it's like a same road

279
00:15:39.919 --> 00:15:41.600
that goes all the way through, or if it's just

280
00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:43.519
another road that's called the Lincoln Highway.

281
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:45.159
Not sure it might have been. It might've been like

282
00:15:45.320 --> 00:15:47.559
Route sixty six once the Interstate came through. You know,

283
00:15:47.600 --> 00:15:49.639
it kind of like it's still there, but it's not

284
00:15:49.759 --> 00:15:52.320
the They don't really right about it.

285
00:15:52.399 --> 00:15:54.200
Yeah, it's disconnected. Yeah.

286
00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:57.279
Well, this one was three three and eighty nine miles long.

287
00:15:57.320 --> 00:16:00.960
I went from Times Square, New York City all the

288
00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:03.600
way to San Francisco. Now, it wasn't like the interstate,

289
00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:05.320
so I know that's what people were thinking about. No,

290
00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:08.519
it was just this little two lane ira and it meandered,

291
00:16:08.559 --> 00:16:10.639
it didn't. It just went from town to town to town.

292
00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:14.000
It's not like he had overpasses or anything like that. Now,

293
00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:16.639
World War One in nineteen seventeen, it was last time

294
00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:19.919
in the world history a cavalry charge was successful. Now

295
00:16:20.039 --> 00:16:23.360
was in Palestine at the Battle of Beersheba, the Australian Calvity,

296
00:16:23.360 --> 00:16:24.919
and they were able to pull it off. If you're

297
00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:27.000
not sure what the cavalry is, that means they were

298
00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:29.840
all on horses. So they were charging machine guns on horses.

299
00:16:29.879 --> 00:16:31.720
So that's why it was the last time it has

300
00:16:31.759 --> 00:16:35.159
ever been able to do successfully. Nineteen twenty three at

301
00:16:35.200 --> 00:16:38.159
Marble Bay in Australia. Now, their temperature hit one hundred

302
00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:40.600
degrees today. Now that temperature, it would hit one hundred

303
00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:42.759
degrees for the next one hundred and sixty days straight,

304
00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:44.879
you know, for a little come my gosh. So if

305
00:16:44.919 --> 00:16:47.279
you want a little comparison, Phoenix just set their record

306
00:16:47.440 --> 00:16:49.519
a couple of years ago. They went one hundred and

307
00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:51.759
thirteen days straight where it hit a hundred, so two

308
00:16:51.799 --> 00:16:55.840
hundred and sixty. You ever do any international in your

309
00:16:56.440 --> 00:16:59.000
international stories on your murder mysteries.

310
00:16:58.879 --> 00:17:06.000
That's our hope. I love to travel. My parents are

311
00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:10.319
from Ireland. I've lived in Ireland and England. I have

312
00:17:10.400 --> 00:17:12.920
family all over the world, so I have free places

313
00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:20.319
to stay. And yeah, absolutely would love to do stories

314
00:17:20.319 --> 00:17:23.319
because there's some really fun stories all over the world

315
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:26.240
and we would love to tell them. So fingers crossed

316
00:17:26.279 --> 00:17:27.240
we get a chance to do that.

317
00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:30.839
Cool. Nineteen eighty three, Ron Grant he became the first

318
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:33.519
person to run all the way around Australia. That means

319
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:36.079
on the actor. Took him two hundred and seventeen days

320
00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:39.079
and he ran eight three hundred and sixteen miles. He

321
00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:42.759
went from Brisbane to Brisbane basically. So this guy, I

322
00:17:42.759 --> 00:17:44.440
don't know how he pulled it off. He actually had

323
00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:46.160
to run thirty nine miles a day in order to

324
00:17:46.200 --> 00:17:46.480
do that.

325
00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:50.000
Oh my god, I don't have the idea of driving

326
00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:53.279
all around Australia sounds exhaust So.

327
00:17:53.920 --> 00:17:56.640
Wow, I can't in mind driving eight thousand miles and

328
00:17:57.200 --> 00:17:59.880
that would be hard and I'm going to do it. Yeah,

329
00:18:00.119 --> 00:18:01.319
To be honest with you, I don't even want to

330
00:18:01.319 --> 00:18:03.599
be in a plane for with that take about seven

331
00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:06.440
eight hours. I probably picked about fifteen hours.

332
00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:10.799
Yeah, yeah, to go to fly from Yeah, that's a

333
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:12.680
it's a big place in Australia.

334
00:18:12.880 --> 00:18:15.440
It won't be a plane that long. Nineteen eighty four,

335
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:19.000
the Prime Minister of India name was India Gandhi. She

336
00:18:19.079 --> 00:18:21.920
was assassinated by her two bodyguards. They killed her while

337
00:18:21.960 --> 00:18:24.240
she was walking through the garden at the Prime Minister's

338
00:18:24.240 --> 00:18:26.880
residence and while she was being interviewed for a documentary

339
00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:30.960
on Station in Ireland. Now they shot her over thirty times. Now,

340
00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:32.799
they didn't run or anything. They just stayed there until

341
00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:36.799
the police got there. Obviously they were executed. Nineteen ninety two,

342
00:18:37.160 --> 00:18:39.160
Pope John Paul the second he had to take one

343
00:18:39.160 --> 00:18:41.279
for the team. That Pope. He was there from the

344
00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:43.640
time it was time for the Catholic Church to come clean.

345
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:46.359
He had to publicly announce to the world that the

346
00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:50.119
Catholic Church was wrong. They should not have persecuted astronomer

347
00:18:50.160 --> 00:18:52.839
Galileo as badly as they did. So it took three

348
00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:55.720
hundred and fifty nine years, but Pope John Paul, he

349
00:18:55.799 --> 00:18:59.240
admitted the Galileo was correct. There does revolve around the sun.

350
00:18:59.599 --> 00:19:02.279
And yeah, he shouldn't have been tortured and forced to

351
00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:04.200
live the late last eight years of his life under

352
00:19:04.240 --> 00:19:04.799
house arrest.

353
00:19:05.039 --> 00:19:08.920
I'm sure that's some great comfort to his family. Have

354
00:19:09.079 --> 00:19:13.759
you heard or seen the movie Soulsurfer? Souls Surfer Today.

355
00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:18.440
In twenty thirteen, thirteen year old Bethany Hamilton had her

356
00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:21.039
arm bitten off by a shark while she was surfing

357
00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:24.880
in Hawaii. I've never surfed, and that doesn't make me

358
00:19:24.920 --> 00:19:25.519
want to do it.

359
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:29.119
No, that's not really a recruiting poster kind of story.

360
00:19:29.640 --> 00:19:29.720
No.

361
00:19:30.480 --> 00:19:33.319
And in twenty eighteen, the largest statue in the world

362
00:19:33.480 --> 00:19:37.200
was unveiled, the Statue of Unity in Gujarat, India. It

363
00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:39.880
stands five hundred and ninety seven feet tall and it

364
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:43.799
is of Indian independence leader Sadhar Ptal. I think that's

365
00:19:43.880 --> 00:19:46.759
twice the height of the Statue of Liberty.

366
00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:49.240
Oh that's some big statue it is.

367
00:19:49.480 --> 00:19:49.759
Yeah.

368
00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:52.640
See, and I gave you the short version. If I

369
00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:54.799
didn't give you the Indian name to read that was

370
00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:55.720
a hard one.

371
00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:57.480
Well, thank you, I appreciate that.

372
00:19:58.279 --> 00:19:59.920
Oh, so how'd you get it? How'd you switch you

373
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:03.000
over from your books to the History of Murder the podcast?

374
00:20:03.519 --> 00:20:05.880
Yes, what about the History of Murder podcast?

375
00:20:06.079 --> 00:20:07.680
No, I was just letting what brought that one on?

376
00:20:08.599 --> 00:20:09.839
You've been writing your not Oh?

377
00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:16.400
Actually I had found out that someone who came over

378
00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:20.519
on the Mayflower had killed his neighbor ten years after

379
00:20:20.559 --> 00:20:25.440
he arrived in Plymouth, Massachusetts. And I like to joke,

380
00:20:25.480 --> 00:20:28.880
it's the first Pilgrim on Pilgrim violence that I'd ever

381
00:20:28.920 --> 00:20:33.200
heard of. And it just made me, like, I don't

382
00:20:33.240 --> 00:20:36.559
know why, obsessed with the idea of finding other connections

383
00:20:36.559 --> 00:20:41.279
between history and murder. And so I began to just

384
00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:44.440
compile a list which is now at about fourteen hundred

385
00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:49.319
cases where I can connect crime to the events that

386
00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:53.440
were happening around it. And I didn't know really what

387
00:20:53.559 --> 00:20:56.880
to do with it. I because I do write books,

388
00:20:56.960 --> 00:20:59.240
I thought, Okay, well, I'll write a book about it,

389
00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:01.640
you know, but it was so many cases that that

390
00:21:01.799 --> 00:21:05.039
was impossible, and a friend suggested doing a podcast. I

391
00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:08.480
didn't know anything about podcasts. I hooked up with my cousin,

392
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:14.279
Margaret Smith, and she does all the visuals for our

393
00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:18.640
YouTube channel, and we were like, neither one of us

394
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:21.519
knows anything about a podcast, so that we seemed perfect partners.

395
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:25.119
So we just decided we would I would do the words,

396
00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:26.960
she would do the pictures, and we would figure it

397
00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:31.440
out together, which were only I don't know how many episodes,

398
00:21:31.960 --> 00:21:36.319
only maybe half a dozen episodes in and hopefully we're

399
00:21:36.359 --> 00:21:42.400
figuring it out. But yeah, it really was sort of

400
00:21:42.440 --> 00:21:45.759
an organic thing of I'm not done writing books. I'll

401
00:21:45.759 --> 00:21:49.799
continue to write books, but I really wanted to tell

402
00:21:49.839 --> 00:21:52.680
these stories and I didn't nowhere else to tell them

403
00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:55.759
that I could that I could do them justice, you know,

404
00:21:55.839 --> 00:21:58.039
because I wouldn't be able to tell all of them

405
00:21:58.039 --> 00:22:00.240
in a book. They were too many, and I just

406
00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:02.279
this seemed like the perfect place to go.

407
00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:05.079
And I'm definitely going to have you guys go check

408
00:22:05.160 --> 00:22:07.599
this out. Well, I mean, we'll keep talking about it,

409
00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:09.519
but if you're not knowing what you guys are doing,

410
00:22:09.599 --> 00:22:12.519
the quality of these are just incredible. It looks basically

411
00:22:12.559 --> 00:22:15.359
like a dateline TV episode almost.

412
00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:17.039
Well, thank you, Yeah, I mean, I think you know,

413
00:22:17.200 --> 00:22:19.440
it helps that I've that I've spent almost twenty five

414
00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:23.519
years in television. It helps that I and I bring that,

415
00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:26.759
you know, I just assume that's how we should do it.

416
00:22:26.920 --> 00:22:29.279
I mean, there's just two of us working on the content,

417
00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:31.039
by the way, and then we have an editor who

418
00:22:31.119 --> 00:22:34.359
puts it together. But like it's a lot for two people,

419
00:22:35.759 --> 00:22:39.319
but we bring that TV sensibility to it, and Margaret

420
00:22:40.039 --> 00:22:43.400
her profession is a librarian, so she brings a lot

421
00:22:43.440 --> 00:22:46.559
of the research and the meticulousness of it to that.

422
00:22:47.160 --> 00:22:52.200
So together we kind of figure it out. And what

423
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:55.599
we really want to do is just bring it everything

424
00:22:55.680 --> 00:22:58.759
to life, you know, and put you there, put you

425
00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:03.519
in that space. And so sometimes our stories are you know,

426
00:23:03.799 --> 00:23:08.000
are intimate and personal family members killing each other. Sometimes

427
00:23:08.359 --> 00:23:13.079
they're bigger, they're things that change the world we live in.

428
00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:18.119
And sometimes they're famous stories, but we'd look for a

429
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:21.119
twist on them. And sometimes they're stories that have been

430
00:23:21.160 --> 00:23:24.720
completely forgotten, have just been buried in the pages of history,

431
00:23:25.680 --> 00:23:30.480
and we get a chance by interviewing historians to dig

432
00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:36.119
them out again. And we also use actors to read

433
00:23:36.200 --> 00:23:39.680
some of the court documents or interviews or whatever, so

434
00:23:39.720 --> 00:23:41.480
that you can hear the voices of the people who

435
00:23:41.480 --> 00:23:46.119
were involved. And it's luckily we have some friends who

436
00:23:46.200 --> 00:23:51.799
are in fact professional actors, and sometimes we just use friends.

437
00:23:52.400 --> 00:23:54.960
So fourteen hundred stories, is it just a gut feeling.

438
00:23:55.039 --> 00:23:57.119
Is there something that intrigues you that makes it I mean,

439
00:23:57.160 --> 00:23:58.680
how do you figure out which Okay, we're going to

440
00:23:58.759 --> 00:23:59.599
do this one this week?

441
00:23:59.799 --> 00:24:03.359
Yeah, yeah, you know, we really sit down and kind

442
00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:06.240
of figure out, Okay, if we told this story, what

443
00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:11.119
is it about this story that stands out from say,

444
00:24:11.640 --> 00:24:15.519
guy kills his girlfriend story? Like, unfortunately, there are many,

445
00:24:15.559 --> 00:24:18.559
many of those, So what is it about this particular

446
00:24:18.599 --> 00:24:22.880
one that we want to tell? And if we can

447
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:29.039
see something beyond just the case itself, then we expand

448
00:24:29.119 --> 00:24:31.920
on that. One of the early stories we did is

449
00:24:31.920 --> 00:24:34.000
in fact about a guy who killed his girlfriend, but

450
00:24:34.039 --> 00:24:39.200
it happened at a time when cars were coming into

451
00:24:39.319 --> 00:24:43.240
rural areas of the United States, and so it was

452
00:24:43.400 --> 00:24:46.920
changing the lives of people who lived in those rural areas,

453
00:24:47.279 --> 00:24:51.319
and that directly impacted the crime itself, and so we

454
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:53.680
felt like, like, okay, that's a story we can tell.

455
00:24:54.880 --> 00:24:57.480
And we get very, very attached because we physically go

456
00:24:57.720 --> 00:25:02.720
to these locations. We go to the museums, we go

457
00:25:02.839 --> 00:25:05.359
to the cemeteries, We spend a lot of our time

458
00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:09.440
in cemeteries. We go and we take photographs of the graves,

459
00:25:10.039 --> 00:25:13.640
and we both of us stand there and say, we're

460
00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:16.319
going to tell your story. We're going to tell your story.

461
00:25:16.359 --> 00:25:19.079
You're not going to be forgotten. So it feels very

462
00:25:19.160 --> 00:25:21.559
very personal for us by the time that we actually

463
00:25:21.799 --> 00:25:24.839
finish it up, because we've walked the walk. You know,

464
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:28.359
this isn't something we just do from a Wikipedia search.

465
00:25:28.480 --> 00:25:32.720
We we go out and make sure that we're telling

466
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:33.480
the real story.

467
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:36.200
Yeah. I think that's probably why it's so good, because

468
00:25:36.200 --> 00:25:36.880
it is personal.

469
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:40.720
Yeah, it is personal. Yeah. We we carry it like

470
00:25:40.759 --> 00:25:43.599
you were saying earlier about the people I've interviewed, and

471
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:46.920
I do carry them with me. I carry these people

472
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:50.559
with me too. We we talk about them by their

473
00:25:50.559 --> 00:25:56.000
first names. Now we know them very well, and hopefully

474
00:25:56.000 --> 00:25:57.680
we bring that to the show.

475
00:25:58.440 --> 00:26:01.640
You definitely do. I'm a guy. I can't stressed that

476
00:26:01.640 --> 00:26:03.359
the listeners enough. Man, you guys are really going to

477
00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:05.359
like this. Hey, should we talk some birthdays?

478
00:26:05.799 --> 00:26:28.640
Absolutely? Dale Evans by the Song of Dale Evans. Dale

479
00:26:28.680 --> 00:26:32.319
Evans wrote that song for her and her husband, Roy Rogers,

480
00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:35.240
in nineteen fifty one. She was born in Uvalde, Texas.

481
00:26:35.319 --> 00:26:39.039
In nineteen twelve, when she was fourteen, she eloped. They

482
00:26:39.079 --> 00:26:41.920
had a son, but the guy abandoned her and the boy,

483
00:26:42.480 --> 00:26:44.960
so at sixteen, Dale went to Memphis to try and

484
00:26:44.960 --> 00:26:47.160
make it in the movie business, which God bless her.

485
00:26:47.519 --> 00:26:50.160
She told the boy, told everyone the boy was her

486
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:52.920
brother and she was raising him. She got jobs playing

487
00:26:52.920 --> 00:26:56.319
the piano, working in radio stations and had some local success.

488
00:26:56.799 --> 00:26:59.559
She got married and divorced more than two more times,

489
00:27:00.039 --> 00:27:03.119
and in nineteen forty seven she married Roy Rogers. In

490
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:05.559
the fifties, she starred with him on the Roy Rogers

491
00:27:05.599 --> 00:27:07.720
TV Show and they made a bunch of movies together.

492
00:27:07.839 --> 00:27:10.799
They had five kids. Roy died in nineteen ninety eight

493
00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:13.160
and she died in two thousand and one from heart

494
00:27:13.200 --> 00:27:16.160
failure at the age of eighty eight. And did you

495
00:27:16.359 --> 00:27:20.759
know that in nineteen sixty nine, Roy Rogers stand in

496
00:27:21.000 --> 00:27:27.400
a guy named Danelle Spade. Cooley suspected that his wife

497
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:31.599
had had an affair with Roy Rogers, and they argued

498
00:27:31.720 --> 00:27:34.960
and Cooley killed her. He served eight years in prison

499
00:27:35.079 --> 00:27:38.000
and was released on furlough to play at a benefit concert.

500
00:27:38.160 --> 00:27:40.799
He was performing at that concert when he had a

501
00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:44.000
heart attack and died. So there is no evidence, by

502
00:27:44.000 --> 00:27:46.839
the way that the wife, Ellie May Cooley, had had

503
00:27:46.839 --> 00:27:49.599
an affair with Roy Rogers. But I just thought I'd

504
00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:52.119
mentioned it because here's the thing that I have found.

505
00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:56.599
Everything is less than six degrees of separation from a

506
00:27:56.680 --> 00:27:57.559
murder case.

507
00:27:57.640 --> 00:28:00.759
Well exactly. I mean, whether Roy and Dale had anything

508
00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:03.319
to do with it or not, they were instrumental. I

509
00:28:03.400 --> 00:28:06.160
mean the guy, even though Roy didn't even probably know,

510
00:28:06.359 --> 00:28:08.640
might not even known the girlfriend, she ended up getting

511
00:28:08.720 --> 00:28:10.200
killed because the guy suspected him of it.

512
00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:15.480
Yeah, it's you know, she may have had a lovely

513
00:28:15.519 --> 00:28:17.559
little chat with him or something. You know, who knows

514
00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:21.480
he was obviously, as people who commit murder are not

515
00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:28.480
really thinking on all, thinking anything through. So yeah, there's

516
00:28:28.480 --> 00:28:30.640
no evidence that he had anything to do with her,

517
00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:33.920
but there you go, it did happen. There was another

518
00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:38.000
birthday today. Actor Michael Landon was born in Forest Hills,

519
00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:42.160
New York, in nineteen thirty six. No known murders connected

520
00:28:42.440 --> 00:28:46.559
to mister Landon. He is best known for playing his

521
00:28:46.640 --> 00:28:49.839
work on TV, starting on Bonanza, where he played Little

522
00:28:49.920 --> 00:28:52.519
Joe Cartwright, and then he was PA on Little House

523
00:28:52.559 --> 00:28:55.720
on the Prairie and then Jonathan on Highway to Heaven.

524
00:28:55.839 --> 00:28:58.200
He had two sons from his first wife, two sons

525
00:28:58.240 --> 00:29:00.680
and three daughters from his second wife, and was married

526
00:29:01.599 --> 00:29:04.759
to his third wife in eighteen. I'm sorry, I'm so

527
00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:08.559
used to older stories. Nineteen eighty three, and he had

528
00:29:08.559 --> 00:29:10.480
a son and a daughter. How many kids is that?

529
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:14.640
It's a bunch of kids. He died in nineteen ninety

530
00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:17.599
one at only fifty four years old, from pancreatic cancer.

531
00:29:17.960 --> 00:29:20.359
So do you remember TV Guide the thing?

532
00:29:20.480 --> 00:29:21.640
Oh gosh, yeah, yeah.

533
00:29:21.880 --> 00:29:25.599

536
00:29:31.039 --> 00:29:33.480
still subscribe to TV Guide, but it's online and it

537
00:29:33.519 --> 00:29:37.200
doesn't give like the TV listings. You know, that's why

538
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:38.880
you about TV Guide, and so it showed you what

539
00:29:38.960 --> 00:29:41.680
was on TV. Now they yeah, now they just do

540
00:29:41.839 --> 00:29:44.720
entertainment stories. But for you older ones who actually remember

541
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:47.440
TV Guide when people got it to their house, Michael Lannon,

542
00:29:47.559 --> 00:29:50.039

Wow. Wow. Actually, and she had multiple series as well.

547
00:30:02.279 --> 00:30:05.559
And actually her son when I think we were all

548
00:30:05.559 --> 00:30:08.640
way too young, but when Desi and Lucy had their son,

549
00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:11.839
he was such a big celebrity thing like that. He

550
00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:14.559
was actually the little I think he's like nine or

551
00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:16.240

00:30:58.400 --> 00:31:02.279
really nice guy. He said that between scenes that people

567
00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:04.000

568
00:31:04.000 --> 00:31:06.279

569

That's the perfect Halloween song. That's Annabel Lwin singing for

607
00:33:10.519 --> 00:33:13.119
Bow Wow Wow. She was born in Rangoon, Burma in

608
00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:16.559
nineteen sixty six. She's fifty nine years old today. When

609
00:33:16.680 --> 00:33:18.880
the band Adam and the Ants broke up, the Ants

610
00:33:19.039 --> 00:33:22.640
formed Bow Wow. They got thirteen year old Wow Annabel

611
00:33:22.759 --> 00:33:25.759
to be their singer. Eventually she went solo, so the

612
00:33:25.799 --> 00:33:28.720
guys replaced her and she didn't like that, so she

613
00:33:28.960 --> 00:33:33.359
started Bow Wow Wow with Annabel. So there's two bands

614
00:33:33.440 --> 00:33:36.759
with more or less the same name. Take your pick.

615
00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:38.559

They decide, you know what, let's just go on do

00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:30.000
I enjoyed the Ice Ice Baby song when it was

00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:31.519
out all back in the day.

651
00:35:31.960 --> 00:35:32.079
Right.

652
00:35:32.119 --> 00:35:34.840
Well, the name Robert van Winkel, that doesn't really sound

653
00:35:34.960 --> 00:35:37.519
like a hardcore wrapper, so that's why he went Vanilla

654
00:35:37.599 --> 00:35:40.079
Ice sounds a little more o g Now he's fifty.

655
00:35:40.199 --> 00:35:42.719
It wasn't he from like the suburbs or someplace.

656
00:35:43.000 --> 00:35:45.199
Yeah, he grew up rich down there in Dallas, Texas.

657
00:35:45.239 --> 00:35:47.760
He was born in nineteen sixty seven, so yeah, his

658
00:35:47.880 --> 00:35:50.280
parents had money. He actually started out as a professional

659
00:35:50.360 --> 00:35:52.679
motocross racer and then during the race he broke his

660
00:35:52.760 --> 00:35:55.280
ankle and while he was recovering, he got into really

661
00:35:55.320 --> 00:35:57.679
big into hip hop. So he quit motocross and went

662
00:35:57.719 --> 00:36:00.760
into basically just being a rapper and singer.

663
00:36:01.159 --> 00:36:03.480
Now that song and now he rehabs houses.

664
00:36:03.880 --> 00:36:06.719
Right, Not only was Ice Size Baby, it was the

665
00:36:06.840 --> 00:36:09.400
first hip hop song to go number one, but it

666
00:36:09.519 --> 00:36:11.920
was not the first rap song. The first rap song

667
00:36:11.960 --> 00:36:16.159
to go number one, and he guesses it was Blonde Blondie,

668
00:36:16.239 --> 00:36:18.320
her song Rapture gets credit.

669
00:36:18.920 --> 00:36:20.760
Really yeah, so interesting.

670
00:36:21.119 --> 00:36:23.480
So the first rap song is from Blondie and the

671
00:36:23.559 --> 00:36:27.599
first hip hop song is from Vanilla Ice. That probably, okay,

672
00:36:27.840 --> 00:36:30.519
I probably get some of those rappers a little. They

673
00:36:30.559 --> 00:36:31.800
don't like that history, do they.

674
00:36:32.280 --> 00:36:33.119
I would imagine.

675
00:36:33.239 --> 00:36:36.360
Yeah, now he does rehab houses, like you said, But

676
00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:38.679
he actually just opened up his own brewery down there

677
00:36:39.000 --> 00:36:42.400
in Palm Beach, Florida. He just opened it up three

678
00:36:42.480 --> 00:36:44.760
weeks ago. So you guys are in Palm Beach and

679
00:36:44.800 --> 00:36:46.519
you wanted to go to a brewery. Yeah, he's got

680
00:36:46.559 --> 00:36:47.119
one down.

681
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:50.320
There, all right. I will check it out, and I well,

682
00:36:50.360 --> 00:36:53.119
you don't need ice in your beer, but still, I

683
00:36:53.199 --> 00:36:55.719
bet the beers are cold, you know, some of ice.

684
00:36:55.760 --> 00:36:56.280
He is cold.

685
00:37:00.519 --> 00:37:03.599
She's Jon.

686
00:37:10.719 --> 00:37:19.639
She she's Jon. Now, I'm not sure if this is

687
00:37:19.719 --> 00:37:22.880
a sad story or not. See that was Lynn Bergerin.

688
00:37:23.119 --> 00:37:26.079
She was the singer of Ace's Bass. She's fifty five.

689
00:37:26.159 --> 00:37:29.199
She was born in Gottenburg, Sweden in nineteen seventy. Now

690
00:37:29.280 --> 00:37:31.880
she for helped form Asa Basse in nineteen eighty seven.

691
00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:34.519
Now they took their name from a Motorhead song called

692
00:37:34.559 --> 00:37:38.000
Aesus Spades All that she wants the sign don't turn

693
00:37:38.039 --> 00:37:40.519
around beautiful Life. Those are some Ace Bass song. Do

694
00:37:40.599 --> 00:37:43.519
you remember them from the nineties, I absolutely do, yeah,

695
00:37:44.039 --> 00:37:46.320
and those are all with Lynn saying. Now they sold

696
00:37:46.360 --> 00:37:49.159
over fifty million records, so that makes them third all

697
00:37:49.239 --> 00:37:52.199
time as the biggest selling Swedish artist. They're behind rock

698
00:37:52.239 --> 00:37:55.280
Set and of course Abba down In two thousand and seven,

699
00:37:55.519 --> 00:37:58.119
Lynn she just quit the band. So basically she just

700
00:37:58.199 --> 00:38:00.239
dropped out of life. She didn't want to do with

701
00:38:00.320 --> 00:38:03.039
anybody or anything. She became a reckless so she just

702
00:38:03.079 --> 00:38:06.400
went and did her own thing and she didn't communicate

703
00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:09.119
with anybody. The only person she really talks to or

704
00:38:09.199 --> 00:38:11.840
communicates with is her sister, and she tells her sister

705
00:38:11.960 --> 00:38:13.639
that she is having a great life and she is

706
00:38:13.719 --> 00:38:16.360
perfectly happy. I guess great for Lynne, but I don't know.

707
00:38:16.440 --> 00:38:18.400
It's just something about it sounds kind of sad, didn't it.

708
00:38:18.800 --> 00:38:21.239
It does sound sort of sad, But I can imagine

709
00:38:21.360 --> 00:38:25.480
that her experience was being sort of so many people

710
00:38:26.079 --> 00:38:29.960
pulling at her and wanting something from her, and you know,

711
00:38:30.159 --> 00:38:35.679
being surrounded constantly, not just by fans but by managers

712
00:38:35.880 --> 00:38:41.159
and agents and record people. That the isolation is probably

713
00:38:41.519 --> 00:38:44.320
just what she needs at the moment. She might not

714
00:38:44.639 --> 00:38:47.039
always be that way, but I think that I can

715
00:38:47.159 --> 00:38:49.679
understand wanting to just go all right, I don't want

716
00:38:49.679 --> 00:38:50.960
anybody pulling at me right now.

717
00:38:51.199 --> 00:38:53.239
Yeah, and hey, as long as she's happy, that's all

718
00:38:53.280 --> 00:38:55.639
that matters. I mean, it's not like she's that goofy

719
00:38:55.719 --> 00:38:57.280
or anything. Is just I just want to be left alone.

720
00:38:57.360 --> 00:38:57.679
Good for you?

721
00:38:58.280 --> 00:39:01.599
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you know what, if she's in Sweden,

722
00:39:01.679 --> 00:39:04.480
there's very few places on earth that are more beautiful,

723
00:39:04.599 --> 00:39:06.239
so she can enjoy.

724
00:39:06.159 --> 00:39:06.559
Some of that.

725
00:39:07.079 --> 00:39:08.880
Now, you said that you are going to keep writing?

726
00:39:09.239 --> 00:39:11.920
Are going to do? Guys? Check out her books? They're

727
00:39:11.960 --> 00:39:14.239
really good, just like our podcast. But are you gonna

728
00:39:14.239 --> 00:39:17.239
do any writing or like any more? That Kate Conway series.

729
00:39:17.480 --> 00:39:22.599
Yeah, yeah. That series is about a television producer who

730
00:39:22.920 --> 00:39:25.800
solves murders. I've never solved a murder by the way,

731
00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:29.079
But but yeah, I would love to write another Kate

732
00:39:29.159 --> 00:39:33.920
Conway and and write, you know, just keep writing more

733
00:39:33.960 --> 00:39:36.280
and more books. I have a series called The World

734
00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:41.559
of Spies about a married couple who accidentally become spies,

735
00:39:41.599 --> 00:39:44.119
and each book takes place in a different country, and

736
00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:46.400
I sort of had to stop the series because of

737
00:39:46.440 --> 00:39:51.519
the pandemic and I couldn't travel two different countries to write.

738
00:39:52.000 --> 00:39:54.679
But I'm picking that back up again and hopefully going

739
00:39:54.719 --> 00:39:57.199
to Japan to write the third book in that series.

740
00:39:58.559 --> 00:40:03.079
So yeah, I what I love about fiction is that

741
00:40:03.320 --> 00:40:07.719
you are literally making it up, and it's it's kind

742
00:40:07.800 --> 00:40:11.920
of it's I feel a lot of pressure on the

743
00:40:12.079 --> 00:40:14.840
history of murder to get it right, even though we

744
00:40:14.960 --> 00:40:18.000
are talking about historical crimes and there isn't anybody here

745
00:40:18.079 --> 00:40:22.880
to fact check me from the family, as it were.

746
00:40:23.039 --> 00:40:27.159
The reality is, I don't want to be wrong about

747
00:40:29.119 --> 00:40:31.840
what any of the things that we say, and I

748
00:40:32.000 --> 00:40:35.760
don't want to I take it as if the crime

749
00:40:35.840 --> 00:40:38.119
happened yesterday, and there's going to be lawyers who are

750
00:40:38.159 --> 00:40:39.679
going to say, well, you can't say this or you

751
00:40:39.760 --> 00:40:43.480
can't say that. But writing fiction means I don't have

752
00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:45.519
to worry about any of that. You know, it's a

753
00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:48.079
nice balance between the two of being able to just

754
00:40:48.199 --> 00:40:50.800
go all right, you know, he does this or he

755
00:40:50.920 --> 00:40:57.159
goes here. Like in fiction real life, it's the characters

756
00:40:57.239 --> 00:41:00.280
that matter, it's the people that matter. So when I

757
00:41:00.320 --> 00:41:03.559
write a book, I'm always focused on the people in

758
00:41:03.760 --> 00:41:08.039
my stories and I and I think that's true for

759
00:41:08.400 --> 00:41:11.239
the podcast as well. We're focused on the people of

760
00:41:11.360 --> 00:41:13.679
that stories and what they were like and what happened

761
00:41:13.719 --> 00:41:16.000
with them. And we try to tell you. We try

762
00:41:16.039 --> 00:41:20.639
to create characters or pull from the people and talk

763
00:41:20.679 --> 00:41:24.960
about specifics so that you follow the story of some

764
00:41:25.280 --> 00:41:30.639
people throughout rather than just tell you from the outside.

765
00:41:30.719 --> 00:41:32.840
We like to pull you in. That's why we use actors.

766
00:41:32.920 --> 00:41:36.039
We'd like to pull you into the characters that were

767
00:41:36.039 --> 00:41:39.480
there and what they went through. And so I guess

768
00:41:39.519 --> 00:41:43.719
I'm learning I pull a little bit of my fiction

769
00:41:43.880 --> 00:41:49.400
work in terms of telling the story as it you know,

770
00:41:50.079 --> 00:41:53.280
in the same way, but being meticulous about the facts.

771
00:41:54.880 --> 00:41:59.840
And then when I'm writing fiction, I'm I'm not as

772
00:42:00.000 --> 00:42:03.000
worried about the facts, but I am concerned that whatever

773
00:42:03.159 --> 00:42:07.159
world I set up, I stay true to it. So

774
00:42:07.280 --> 00:42:10.920
there's a fact, there's facts in it. In that whatever

775
00:42:11.039 --> 00:42:12.679
I create, I have to be true to it.

776
00:42:13.119 --> 00:42:14.840
Is that why you always have to travel before you

777
00:42:15.000 --> 00:42:18.039
even though it's fiction. Instead you can just make it up,

778
00:42:18.079 --> 00:42:19.719
you still have to go there to see it in

779
00:42:19.760 --> 00:42:20.679
yourself well.

780
00:42:20.559 --> 00:42:24.440
One hundred percent, because you know, people get stuff wrong,

781
00:42:25.440 --> 00:42:26.679
and I don't want to get I don't want to

782
00:42:26.719 --> 00:42:29.119
get it wrong. I want to I want to tell

783
00:42:29.199 --> 00:42:33.480
you what it sounds like and smells like and feels

784
00:42:33.599 --> 00:42:36.920
like to walk that street. Also, I like to travel,

785
00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:39.199
So maybe I'm using the books as an excuse, but

786
00:42:40.920 --> 00:42:43.800
but I think it's really important. And there are stories

787
00:42:43.920 --> 00:42:47.800
in my books that came from real life experiences that

788
00:42:47.920 --> 00:42:50.119
I had that I would never have written about if

789
00:42:50.159 --> 00:42:53.800
I hadn't experienced them. Silly things, but still you know

790
00:42:54.239 --> 00:42:56.559
just how long it took to get someplace, or what

791
00:42:56.840 --> 00:43:02.800
some meal tasted like. And I think having experienced it myself,

792
00:43:02.880 --> 00:43:05.039
I can write about it more fully nothink.

793
00:43:05.079 --> 00:43:07.280
That's I think that's why they're so good. I mean,

794
00:43:07.840 --> 00:43:10.280
thank you you could have. I mean, I'm sure a

795
00:43:10.360 --> 00:43:12.039
lot of the writers out there and they just kind

796
00:43:12.079 --> 00:43:14.559
of man, I'm not going to go over and see

797
00:43:14.599 --> 00:43:17.159
what Fargo, North Dakota actually looks like. I'm just gonna

798
00:43:17.159 --> 00:43:19.119
have them traveling through where you'll actually go.

799
00:43:19.639 --> 00:43:22.480
Oh, you should go, and that that that is also

800
00:43:22.679 --> 00:43:24.679
the reason that we go for the history of murder.

801
00:43:24.760 --> 00:43:28.360
We go because if you just if you just look

802
00:43:28.440 --> 00:43:32.639
everything up on the web, you you will get stuff wrong.

803
00:43:32.760 --> 00:43:35.719
There is something about being in the location and seeing

804
00:43:35.760 --> 00:43:39.400
it for yourself that you can go, wow, this really

805
00:43:39.559 --> 00:43:43.199
is isolated, you know, or wow this you know? This

806
00:43:43.400 --> 00:43:49.960
is I see the splendor of this place. And for

807
00:43:50.119 --> 00:43:53.679
a fiction writer, absolutely it just makes such a difference.

808
00:43:53.719 --> 00:43:56.800
You can bring a richness to it that you cannot do.

809
00:43:57.159 --> 00:43:58.880
It's kind I always say, like, it's kind of like

810
00:43:59.000 --> 00:44:03.320
if I wrote a novel about hockey. I've been to

811
00:44:03.320 --> 00:44:06.039
a couple of hockey games. I don't know enough about

812
00:44:06.079 --> 00:44:08.599
it to write fully. For me to write a novel

813
00:44:08.639 --> 00:44:12.599
about hockey, I would want to play. Not professionally, so

814
00:44:12.800 --> 00:44:16.800
don't don't anybody out there offer me a contract, but

815
00:44:17.199 --> 00:44:19.320
you know I would want I would want to be

816
00:44:19.440 --> 00:44:23.719
able to say what it feels like, because otherwise I'm

817
00:44:23.760 --> 00:44:25.000
probably going to get stuff wrong.

818
00:44:25.239 --> 00:44:28.119
Exactly so, and we're going to put links and make

819
00:44:28.159 --> 00:44:30.079
it easy for you all to actually find her books

820
00:44:30.119 --> 00:44:32.320
and definitely good to the podcast. You're going to love

821
00:44:32.360 --> 00:44:34.400
both of them. Well, thank you very much for coming

822
00:44:34.440 --> 00:44:35.599
on here, Claire. You've been awesome.

823
00:44:36.000 --> 00:44:38.039
Oh, thank you so much for having me. It's been

824
00:44:38.119 --> 00:44:42.119
really fun and educational to learn all the stuff that happened.

825
00:44:42.360 --> 00:44:44.320
And the happy Halloween to everybody out there.

826
00:44:44.559 --> 00:44:47.480
Exactly. Remember she's got eighteen bags of candy, so you know,

827
00:44:48.159 --> 00:44:49.599
probably get there before she runs out.

828
00:44:50.039 --> 00:44:53.519
Yeah. I don't live in sleepy Hollow anymore, so I
