  • The Most Mysterious Bombing in American History

    The Most Mysterious Bombing in American History
    May 7 2024
    Episode 36: The Most Mysterious Bombing in American History Without a doubt, the single most misused word in America today is terrorism. It is the word used or hinted at when any act of violence occurs. And 911 is constantly called a terrorist attack. This is an error. 911 was not a terrorist attack. We know what did it and why. A terrorist attack is one where no one knows who did it, why they did it, and no one claims credit for it. The act is done to strike terror in the hearts of citizens and, more importantly, to get the population to distrust the government. Why didn't the police know this act of violence was coming? Why didn't the government stop it from happening? And, critically, could it happen again in my neighborhood or where my children are going to school? There have been very few large-scale terrorist attacks in US history. Four of the largest occurred between 1910 and 1920. ___________________________________________________________________________________ Join Beach Blanket Books—a Facebook Event.

    The Female Robinson Crusoe and Wrangel Island Expedition Mystery
    Apr 9 2024
    Episode 34: The Female Robinson Crusoe and Wrangel Island Expedition Mystery Ada Blackjack’s story reflects the harrowing experiences faced by those who venture into the Arctic and the often-overlooked capabilities and contributions of indigenous peoples to Arctic expeditions. In the annals of Arctic exploration, few tales evoke the blend of mystery and tragedy quite like the Wrangel Island Expedition. The year was 1921, and under the auspices of Arctic explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson, a team was assembled to claim the desolate Wrangel Island. __________________________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________________ Join Beach Blanket Books—a Facebook Event.
