About this listen

On September 29th, 1952 John Rhodes Cobb, a three-time World Land Speed Record Holder, who’d previously driven at speeds of up to 403 miles per hour and earned the press moniker “The Fastest Man Alive,” was attempting to break the Water Speed Record at Loch Ness. While piloting his speedboat, John Cobb attained over 240 miles per hour when his boat struck a mysterious ripple. The vessel immediately took a nose dive and disintegrated, throwing Cobb 50 feet. He died instantly. Did the Loch Ness monster cause the crash that killed The Fastest Man Alive? I pull up the astrology chart on this week’s episode of The Astrology of Terrible Things and make some fascinating discoveries about Mars, Jupiter, and the 5th house year.
