How is this not a movie yet?

Part 2 of our Queens of Crime series, Today we talk about how Sophie Lyons lightened the purses of people in New York in the late 1800s. It is a surprisingly romantic and sympathetic tale of harrowing crime sprees and the love the blossomed from it. Or maybe she was just a sociopath. Who knows. Give it a go, and watch your pockets.

We're Back! After a few months Hiatus, the podcast is finally back. New Location, same ol' amateur crap you listen too! Today's show is about a little known crime lord of the New York City streets in the 1800s. Frederika Mandelbaum was her name, and she provided food, shelter, and a place for orphans to unload their stolen goods. She even had a school dedicated to teaching children how to steal. Sounds like a grandmother everyone would want!

So today's podcast is about on of the icons of the Peace Movement, Father Dan Berrigan. Father Dan was a Catholic priest who specialized in Peaceful Protests. You might call him a PRIESTful Protester. Does that scan? Alex just laughed at it so it must be funny. Just came up with that on the fly. Should I change the title of the episode now? Anyway, He was a Radical. And not radical in the 90s doing-kick-awesome-moves-on-a-skateboard sense, the 60s Radical, and ended up on the FBI most wanted...

Alex is back! Fresh off his trip down under, Alex joins me in the Courtroom to discuss Fred Rogers and his magnificent testimony to Congress in 1969. Funding for PBS was about to be cut by one of the stingiest men in Congress and it was up to everyone's favorite neighbor to save the station. Listen to find out how that went, though I'm guessing you can figure it out on your own, given PBS is still around.

Well, the title is pretty self-explanatory, isn't it? No show, its been a busy month for me. But starting next week I have summer break, so I'll be able to upload on a regular basis! And a website, if things go well for me.

Sorry, Its been a while since I've posted a show. Its the end of the school year, so lots of work to be done. But the summer is coming, which means I have some major shows I'm researching! Today we have a story of survival and heroism is impossible circumstances. It is the story of the Galeris Eruption of 1993 and the Science expedition that happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Or would that be Right place at the wrong time? I mean, they were studying the volcano, so they...

The enemy of my enemy... is still my enemy but at least they can help me out for a bit. That was the attitude the Israelis had when they asked an ex-Nazi intelligence officer to help them out in the early 60s. In an adventure that reads more like a spy novel than a history book, Otto Skorzeny teamed up with the Mossad to stop a threat that would shift the balance of power in the Middle East. (Totally feel like I'm writing a blurb on the back of a spy thriller right now) Special thanks to Dan...

Today's show is a different from the usual format. I am joined by my good friend Travis and the two of us discuss Star Trek and what plot lines would make good Star Trek movies and TV Shows.

Today on the show I interview the one and only Max Hardberger, Part time pirate and total badass. Last week on the show we talked about his exploits in the dangerous world of Cargo Ship repossession, and he was kind enough to call in for an interview! I recommend listening to the previous episode first, just to familiarize yourself with his fascinating ordeals of this high seas adventurer.

I am not going to lie, this is a podcast about the most badass guy you'll ever hear about. F.Max Hardberger is a man who has made a living stealing cargo ships. H literally sneaks into harbors and commandeers these ships and sails them out under the cover of darkness. Don't believe me? Give it a listen!
