    S E6: Ferdinand Magellan: Giants, Mutiny & the First Circumnavigation
    Feb 12 2026

    In this cinematic MR. HANSoN Podcast episode, Jeremy Hanson brings to life the astonishing journey of Ferdinand Magellan, the explorer who changed the shape of the world.

    From mutiny and starvation to the discovery of the Strait of Magellan, this immersive storytelling experience follows Magellan’s relentless pursuit of a western passage to the Spice Islands. Sailing under the Spanish crown, commanding ships like the Trinidad and the Victoria, Magellan ventured into waters no European had ever crossed — ultimately naming the vast Pacific Ocean after surviving one of the most brutal crossings in maritime history.

    This episode explores the psychological cost of leadership, the deadly mutiny at Puerto San Julián, the 98-day Pacific crossing that nearly annihilated the fleet, and the violent final confrontation at the Battle of Mactan, where Magellan met his end.

    But this is more than history.

    It is a meditation on ambition, sacrifice, faith, exploration, and the human need to go beyond the edge of the known world.

    MR. HANSoN delivers this episode in a Paul Harvey–inspired, seven-act cinematic arc — blending immersive sensory detail with historical gravity. This is not a classroom lecture. This is a journey into black water, freezing winds, burning tropical shores, and the cost of daring to matter.

    • Why did Magellan die before finishing the voyage?
    • What was discovered during the expedition?

  • S E5: The Northlander Predator: What Killed Jordan Grider in the Boundary Waters?

    S E5: The Northlander Predator: What Killed Jordan Grider in the Boundary Waters?
    Feb 6 2026

    In this cinematic episode of MR. HANSoN Podcast, Jeremy Hanson investigates the mysterious death of Jordan Grider, a 26-year-old wilderness guide who entered Minnesota’s Boundary Waters in February and never returned.

    Official reports list exposure and undetermined animal activity. But internal memos, field notes, and firsthand testimony tell a different story — one filled with ambiguous bipedal tracks, selectively disturbed gear, arranged personal items, and silence from officials who have spent decades in search and rescue.

    Why were wolves publicly ruled out so quickly? Why did multiple responders transfer or retire shortly after the recovery? Why were tracks flagged as “ambiguous bipedal impressions” and then buried in administrative limbo?

    Jeremy follows the pattern through:

    • Indigenous Anishinaabe teachings about ancient wilderness agreements

    • Firsthand accounts of upright predators in the Superior National Forest

    • Trappers documenting deliberate concealment behavior

    • Campers describing tent zippers moving in the dead of winter

    • Recovery personnel who describe the scene as “positioned” and “instructional”

    Is the Dogman legend merely folklore? Or are there older wilderness laws still being enforced?

    This is not a sensational monster story. It is a meditation on humility, forgotten agreements, and the possibility that the North Woods are not empty.

    If you believe wilderness is just scenery, this episode may challenge you. If you believe ancient land carries memory — this episode may confirm what you’ve always suspected.

  • S E4: The Color That Came From Hunger: The True Origin Story of Pink Lemonade (Pete Conklin & Henry Allott, 1872)

    S E4: The Color That Came From Hunger: The True Origin Story of Pink Lemonade (Pete Conklin & Henry Allott, 1872)
    Jan 29 2026

    Detailed description: In this episode of THE MR HANSoN PODCAST, Jeremy Hanson delivers a cinematic, true-to-life origin story behind a drink almost everyone recognizes but almost no one questions: pink lemonade. Set against the crushing heat of July 14, 1872, two teenage concession boys, Pete Conklin and Henry Allott, face a crowd that’s growing hotter, louder, and more dangerous by the minute. The water is gone. The supply key is nowhere to be found. The tent is an oven. The mob energy is rising. With no safe options left, they make a desperate, improvised decision that becomes an accidental invention and a cultural staple that outlives them both. This episode isn’t just “food trivia.” It’s a story about what scarcity does to human judgment, how poverty forges ruthless problem-solvers, and how the line between innovation and catastrophe can be razor thin. From the backstage bucket moment to the first customer’s sip, to the way the idea spreads by demand and word of mouth, The Color That Came From Hunger explores how a single impossible day can turn into something immortal. If you love forgotten American history, origin stories, and “how did that ever start” mysteries told with moral weight and cinematic tension, this is one of those episodes that stays with you long after the last note fades.

  • S E3: Who Was Bartley Gorman? The True Story Behind the Bareknuckle “King of the Gypsies”

    S E3: Who Was Bartley Gorman? The True Story Behind the Bareknuckle “King of the Gypsies”
    Jan 21 2026

    Who was Bartley Gorman—and why do so many call him the “King of the Gypsies”?

    In this cinematic biography episode of MR. HANSoN Podcast, host Jeremy Hanson tells the dark, mythic, and deeply human true story of a man born into the Traveler world—a culture shaped by movement, tradition, exclusion, and a brutal code where reputation could mean safety.

    Gorman (1944–2002) became one of the most feared names in unlicensed bareknuckle fighting across Britain and Ireland, with fights remembered not by official records, but by whispers: mineshafts, quarries, campsites, pubs, streets—places where there were no judges, no gloves, and no second chances.

    This episode explores:

    • The difference between myth and the man
    • How bareknuckle culture functioned as a form of informal dispute-settling in Traveler communities
    • What it costs to carry a crown you never asked for
    • How Bartley’s presence and voice reportedly influenced modern pop culture—most famously as a stated inspiration behind Tom Hardy’s Bane voice
    • Why some legends are never officially crowned… yet still become immortal

    This is not a highlight reel. It’s a story about violence as consequence, restraint as power, and the heavy, quiet authority of a man the world tried to keep outside the gate—until the gate couldn’t ignore him anymore.

    And in the end, we ask the only question that matters:

    What does a king represent when the crown was never his to wear?

    Who was Bartley Gorman?

    Bartley Gorman (1944–2002) was a Welsh bareknuckle boxer from a Traveler background who called himself “the King of the Gypsies” and was known for dominating unlicensed bareknuckle fighting for years.

    What inspired Tom Hardy’s Bane voice?

    In interviews that resurfaced and have been widely reported, Tom Hardy said one inspiration for Bane’s voice was Bartley Gorman, a bareknuckle fighter with a distinctive way of speaking.

    S E2: MR HANSoN THE VOODOO BUTCHER OF THE BAYOU: The Clementine Barnabet Story
    Dec 18 2025
    THE VOODOO BUTCHER OF THE BAYOU: The Clementine Barnabet StoryHow a 17-Year-Old Girl Became America's Most Terrifying Serial Killer—And Then Vanished Into Legend, Leaving Behind a Mystery That Still Haunts Louisiana's Darkest CornersLafayette, Louisiana. February 1911. A family of four lies murdered in their beds, faces destroyed beyond recognition. Across the blood-soaked floor, someone has drawn a crude cross—not splattered, but painted deliberately with a finger dipped in crimson. The weapon? An axe, leaned respectfully against the wall like a calling card.By the time the killing stopped, 35 people would be dead—17 of them children. And at the center of it all stood a teenage girl who claimed she wasn't a murderer. She was chosen.The 60-minute investigation you're about to hear reveals:How Clementine Barnabet, a 17-year-old Creole girl from St. Martinville, Louisiana, became one of America's most prolific serial killers during a 13-month reign of terror that paralyzed the Deep SouthThe disturbing connection to the "Church of Sacrifice"—a cult that blended Christianity with African hoodoo and preached that salvation came through ritual murderWhy entire families were slaughtered in complete silence—no screams, no barking dogs, no witnesses—as if something supernatural prevented them from calling for helpThe impossible details she knew: victim's pet names, clothing colors, Bible verses they were reading—information the police had never released and she couldn't possibly know unless she was thereHow she confessed to walking through walls using a "conjure potion" made from herbs and "organic matter" she refused to identifyHer chilling courtroom testimony where she declared: "I ain't sorry for what I done. Them folks is clean now. I made them saints."The 1915 mystery: How she vanished from Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola without a trace—no tunnel, no guard cooperation, no explanation—and was never found despite massive searchesWhy similar murders with identical signatures continued for years after her disappearance, causing locals to believe she still walks the bayou at nightBut here's where it transcends true crime into something darker:Medical experts who examined her requested transfers and never spoke of her again. Witnesses reported seeing her eyes "reflect moonlight wrong—like they weren't quite human anymore." Prison records show she was a model inmate who kept to herself... until she simply ceased to exist in October 1915, with only one line in the ledger: "Not recovered."The question that still haunts investigators: Was Clementine Barnabet a serial killer driven by religious fanaticism and mental illness? Or was she, as she claimed, possessed by something that used her body to cleanse the wicked? When doctors, priests, and hardened lawmen all refused to explain what they witnessed, when a teenager knew details only a killer could know, when the murders continued after her impossible escape—what explanation remains?This episode includes:On-location investigation of the Louisiana sites where she lived, killed, and vanished—including the prison cell where she carved an unidentified voodoo symbol into the wallAnalysis of century-old court transcripts, police reports, and coroner's files that reveal patterns law enforcement couldn't explainInterviews with descendants of survivors and local historians who still refuse to say her name too loudlyExamination of why her case was deliberately obscured from historical records, with files marked "Unknown Perpetrator" despite a full confessionThe disturbing letter discovered in 2024—allegedly written by Clementine from prison in 1913, addressed to someone who wouldn't be born for another 80 yearsPerfect for listeners who loved: Mr. Ballen, Lore, Last Podcast on the Left, My Favorite Murder, Criminal, Casefile True Crime, Morbid, Southern Gothic, and anyone fascinated by unsolved mysteries, serial killers, religious cults, supernatural phenomena, Louisiana folklore, or the question of where mental illness ends and something darker begins.Content Advisory: This episode contains graphic descriptions of violence against children and families, discussion of religious extremism, occult practices, and psychological horror. Recommended for mature audiences with strong tolerance for disturbing content.Production Notes: 60 minutes of immersive storytelling with cinematic sound design, authentic period ambience, psychological tension architecture, and documentary-grade historical research. Features original score blending Southern Gothic atmosphere with horror elements.The Runtime: One hour that will make you question everything you thought you knew about evil, faith, and the thin line between possession and insanity.Some stories end when you stop listening.

  • S E1: MR HANSoN "The Man Who Sold The Moon"

    S E1: MR HANSoN "The Man Who Sold The Moon"
    Dec 18 2025

    How a Broke Vacuum Salesman Became the Solar System's Most Controversial Real Estate Mogul—And Why His $12 Million Empire Might Make Him History's Greatest Visionary

    In April 1980, Dennis Hope's car broke down on Highway 101. He was $400 behind on bills, freshly divorced, and staring at an eviction notice. That night, standing in a puddle with 47 cents in his pocket, he looked up at the moon and asked a question that would change his life: "Who the hell owns that thing?"

    What happened next forced the United Nations, NASA, and international courts to confront a legal loophole that still exists today—a gap in space law big enough to fly a rocket through.

    The 46-minute deep dive you're about to hear reveals:

    • How Hope discovered a critical flaw in the 1967 UN Outer Space Treaty that prohibited nations from owning celestial bodies—but said nothing about individuals
    • The moment he walked into a San Francisco courthouse and filed paperwork claiming ownership of all 9.6 billion acres of lunar real estate
    • How he built a multimillion-dollar empire selling moon property to 6+ million customers across 193 countries—including alleged clients like Tom Cruise, George H.W. Bush, and Ronald Reagan
    • Why his legal claims have never been successfully challenged in court, despite decades of lawsuits from NASA, Russia, China, and the European Space Agency
    • The psychological genius behind selling "nothing" for $20 per acre—and why people bought it anyway
    • How Hope's outrageous 1980 claim anticipated today's $4 billion space mining industry and the race by SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Intuitive Machines to commercialize the moon

    But here's where it gets truly fascinating:

    In 2020, NASA's Artemis Accords officially opened the moon for commercial resource extraction. Luxembourg and the United States have passed laws granting property rights to materials mined in space. Private companies are now planning lunar hotels, mining operations, and permanent settlements.

    The moon Dennis Hope claimed as "empty real estate" in 1980 is becoming the most valuable property in the solar system.

    Was Hope a con artist? A performance artist? Or the first person to understand what humanity is just beginning to realize—that the future belongs to those bold enough to claim it?

    This episode explores the intersection of ambition, legal loopholes, human psychology, and cosmic real estate in a story so outrageous that reality makes every con artist in history look like an amateur. It's a masterclass in entrepreneurship, a legal thriller spanning four decades, and a philosophical examination of what it means to "own" anything at all.

    Perfect for listeners who loved: Mr. Ballen, The Dropout, We Crashed, Swindled, American Greed, and anyone fascinated by space exploration, addictive story telling, legal gray areas, international law, entrepreneurial audacity, or the question of who gets to own the final frontier.

    Content Advisory: This episode contains adult themes including financial desperation, divorce, and the psychological impact of failure and redemption.

    Runtime: 46 minutes of premium storytelling with cinematic sound design, retention-optimized pacing, and documentary-grade research.
