Happy Friday!! Today we’re sharing stories on some of the most prolific poisonings throughout history…

First of a badass woman, known to be the most successful serial killer whose name you’ve never heard. Giulia Tofana was able to murder hundreds of men over the course of nearly 50 years without being caught — until, in a shocking twist, a bowl of soup caused her downfall. 

Then, a candy-centric crime wave that struck Japan in the 80’s. Through 1984 and 1985, a mysterious group calling themselves “The Monster with 21 Faces” waged an extortion campaign poisoning the 2 largest candy corporations in Japan. After countless resources and time spent on the case, the culprit was never caught and the mystery continues….

Happy Friday!!! Today we're sharing 2 crazy stories...

First is the story of a Weird World. Pauline Dakin's childhood in Canada in the 1970s was full of secrets, disruption and unpleasant surprises. She wasn't allowed to talk about her family life with anyone - and it wasn't until she was 23 that she was told why...

Next we're talking about the infamous and super creepy Westfield Watcher. Several days after Maria and Derek Broaddus closed on the almost 4,000-square foot home, they received a letter from someone who claimed to be watching the home and that his family had been watching the home for years. The Broaddus family purchased the house for $1.3 million to raise their three children, not far from where Maria Broaddus had grown up, but the idyllic home turned out to be less than wonderful...

The Panama Papers are a collection of leaked company documents that gave a glimpse into how the world’s richest and most powerful people avoid paying taxes by basically cheating the system and being shady AF.

The Background:

• In 2016, journalists from a German newspaper obtained 11.5 million documents from the law firm, Mossack Fonseca, that exposed how some of the world’s most prominent politicians, business leaders and celebrities may have used offshore bank accounts and shell companies to conceal their wealth or avoid taxes.
• For those who are not familiar with the term- offshore banking refers to the deposit of funds by a company or individual in a bank that is located outside their national residence.  
• Due to way less tax regulations, and like, zero transparency, you are able to get away with some shady sh*t.
• And then this little German cutie started leaking documents to a local German newspaper and it was j-u-i-c-y.
• We still don’t know who this guy is, he goes by Jon Doe to remain anonymous; however, since his first interaction with Bastian Obermayer (that Investigative Reporter), over 11.5 million documents from that sketchy law firm were leaked… Leading to history’s largest data leak, ever. 

WTF Moments:

• Offshore banking is 100% legal and has been going on for decades, but some see it as a trick or perk for the wealthy.
• In 2018, 60 of the largest companies in the USA paid no taxes on pre-tax income of 79 billion dollars.
• Conspiracies range from this being “an attack on enemies of western capitalism” to “being a distraction for the 2016 US Presidential Election Circus Show” to all of this being a “strategic leak” – we discuss these in more depth in this ep.
• Netflix is being sued over their movie depicting the story of the Panama Papers – btw, if it is still available, we highly recommend… plus Meryl Streep is in it.
• Oh ya, and the journalist that helped leak the story was f*cking murdered.

Happy Friday! Get ready, these stories are CRAZY...

First, we're talking about the supposed reincarnation of the Polluck twins - John and Florence Polluck lost their girls in a tragic car accident in 1957.. A year later, Florence gave birth to twins, which John thought were his girls reincarnated.  John sounds a little crazy, but the personality traits, birthmarks, and even memories the twins had of their late sisters are too freaky to just be a coincidence...

Then, we're talking about the longest flight ever, Santiago Flight 513 - On September 4, 1954, Santiago Airlines Flight 513 departed from Aachen, West Germany, destined for Porto Alegre, Brazil. The flight should have taken around 18 hours, instead, it took 35 years. On October 12, 1989, without any contact with air traffic controllers, Santiago Flight 513 was spotted circling the Porto Alegre airport, where it eventually made a successful landing.  Upon opening the doors, authorities found something still more shocking: the skeletons of 92 people, buckled into their seats. The skeletal body of Captain Miguel Victor Cury was found in his pilot’s seat, hands on the controls, with the engine still humming. - what in the actual f*ck.

Heyy 2020!  We're kicking off the year talking about one of the most brutal and culturally enduring crimes in American history - the murder of Elizabeth Short, AKA the Black Dahlia.

WTF Moments:

• On January 15th, 1947, Elizabeth Short was found murdered, laying naked in a field, cut in half, and completely drained of blood. She was 22 years old.
• Elizabeth's dad was a d*ck, he "faked suicide" during the Great Depression and left his wife and 5 daughters totally f*cked for 12 years.
• Elizabeth had a touch life growing up, and when she was a young adult she got like, really pretty, and became an aspiring model/actress.
• Elizabeth's body was found on the morning of January 15, 1947, by Mrs. Betty Bersing, and her three-year old daughter.
• Betty originally thought it was a mannequin due to its pose and pallor. - You know how you find mannequins in fields sometimes... When she realized she was looking at a corpse, she immediately telephoned the police.
• The killer ​began contacting police within a week​ of the body's discovery. He started with a phone call, saying they should "expect souvenirs of Beth Short in the mail." A few days later, he/she sent a package with some of Elizabeth's personal belongings, including: Elizabeth Short’s birth certificate, business cards, photographs, and an address book with the name “Mark Hansen” on the cover. 
• Steve Hodel, a former Los Angeles detective, has spent 23 years ​gathering evidence​ to posthumously I.D. his father as Elizabeth Short's killer. With good reason, because his dad was sketchy AF. 
  • George Hodel (Steve's father) basically admitted to murdering her.  He was literally recorded on tape saying "Supposin' I did kill the Black Dahlia. They can't prove it now. They can't talk to my secretary anymore because she's dead." - oh, he was also questioned about his secretary's random and untimely death.  
  • George was a doctor, more than capable of the precise hemicorporectomy performed on Elizabeth Short. 
    • Also, the initials "G.H" were repeatedly mentioned in a posthumous letter from police informant W. Glenn Martin referencing both the Black Dahlia murder as well as the Green Twig murder only two years later. ​George Hodel was questioned and released for that one, too​.
    • If you're keeping track, that's 3 separate murder's George was a suspect in.
• The Black Dahlia murder has been unsolved for over 70 years, but it's certainly not for lack of manpower. Between January 1947 and the spring of that same year, 400 sheriff's deputies and 250 California State Patrol officers tried, unsuccessfully to solve the crime. Some, think it’s because the LAPD ​was actually trying to cover it up​.... will we ever know?

This week we are talking about the wonderful world of movies.  From the start, we've seen some sketchy things going on in this industry...

First, we're talking about the real inventor of motion picture cinema: Louis Le Prince.  Apparently he was working with movies wayyy before Thomas Edison, and right before he's about to make it big, he disappears and is never heard from again.  Then, his son, who was the only one looking into the investigation is found dead in the woods... the whole story is sketchy AF.

Then, we're talking about good ol' Hollywood and the theory of the government trying to persuade our view's of UFO through the media.  There's a lot to think about here... and what ev happened to Phobos 1??

Are the Kennedy's cursed? - probably.  This family’s string of untimely deaths from assassinations, freak accidents, plane crashes, suicides and overdoses is just so crazy.  So.  Much.  Death.

Here's just a quick run down of some of the major tragic events that happened to the Kennedy’s from 1941-2019:

• In 1941 Rosemary Kennedy had a lobotomy that went drastically wrong.  This left her unable to walk or speak well, and as a result, Rosemary remained institutionalized until her death in 2005.
• Joe Kennedy Jr. died in 1944 when he volunteered to pilot a secret World War II bombing mission in France. Two in-flight explosions hit the aircraft, killing him and another pilot. He was 29 years old.
• Only four years later, JFK’s sister Kathleen Kennedy died when a small plane crashed during a storm in France. She was only 28.
• In 1963, President Kennedy and wife Jacqueline gave birth to their third child, Patrick, nearly six weeks early. He survived for less than two days. 
• Later that year, President JFK, 46 years old, was assassinated in Dallas.
• June 19, 1964 – Senator Ted Kennedy was involved in a plane crash in which one of his aides and the pilot were killed. Ted spent weeks in a hospital recovering from a broken back, a punctured lung, broken ribs, and internal bleeding.
• On June 5th 1968, Robert F. Kennedy was shot dead in Los Angeles in 1968, just as he was gaining Democratic support for his own presidential run.
• July 18, 1969 – In the Chappaquiddick incident, Ted Kennedy accidentally drove his car off a bridge on Chappaquiddick Island, which killed his 28-year-old passenger, Mary Jo Kopechne.
• In 1973, Edward M. Kennedy Jr., then aged 12, had to have his right leg surgically amputated due to bone cancer; he underwent a long, difficult, experimental two-year drug treatment to cure the cancer
• JFK’s son, John F. Kennedy Jr., his wife, Carolyn Kennedy, and sister-in-law Lauren Bessette died in a plane crash in 1999. JFK Jr. was piloting the plane at night when he apparently lost his bearings — and the aircraft plummeted into the Atlantic.
• Meanwhile, one of Robert F. Kennedy’s sons, David Kennedy, died in 1984 of a drug overdose in a Florida hotel. He was 28.
• Another son of RFK, Michael Kennedy, died in a Colorado ski accident on New Year’s Eve 1997. He was 39.
• In 2011, Ted Kennedy’s daughter Kara Kennedy died at age 51 of a heart attack during a workout at a health club.
• Earlier this month, Saoirse Roisin Kennedy Hill, 22-year-old granddaughter of Robert F. Kennedy, was found dead of a suspected drug overdose at the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port, Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
