Sunday Mar 01, 2026
Sunday Mar 01, 2026
This week we wrap up our coverage of the disappearance of Emanuela Orlandi.
Last week we walked you through the events that lead to her disappearance as well as the aftermath of what happened. This week, we take a look at all of the investigations, their findings, as well as a FEW theories of what many believe happened. This one is nuts and we're probably going to be banned from every Catholic church...but oh well.

457 The Disappearance of Emanuela Orlandi Part 1
Sunday Feb 22, 2026
Sunday Feb 22, 2026
This week we throw our true crime hats back on for wild ride to the great boot in the sea, Italy! In 1983 a teenage girl who was a resident of the Vatican (yep, that Vatican) went missing after a mysterious man offered her a job selling Avon products after her flute lessons. This would catch the attention of the Pope and his enemies where her supposed captives would offer her release in exchange for the man who attempted to assassinate the Pope just a few years earlier....and the Pope doesn't negotiate with terrorists...forgives them....but DOES NOT NEGOTIATE WITHT THEM
This is part 2 of a truly crazy story that only gets crazier the further on you get so, STAY TUNED FOR MORE

in August of 1991 the old guard from the Soviet Union attempted a Coupe to over thrown the burgeoning 'democracy' that was to be a westernized version of Russa. This failed due to lack of military support, general public interest , and the sheer energy of the Russian youth To reward these efforts, the country 'gifted' the largest heavy metal concert in recorded history where an audience of 1.6 MILLION (in Dr. Evil voice) fans watched Pantera, The Black Crows, METALLICA, and AC/DC perform. Not only were these career defining performances for Pantera and Metallica, but it also was the bookend to the last days of the Soviet Union.
Yadda yadda yadda and happily ever after....or so you think....stay tuned to learn more

In fact she was actually a man pretending to be a woman online ! BUCKLE UP because this one's a doozy folks!
