Episode 47-Madeleine McCann · Part I — “The Night in 5A”

A holiday routine, a minute-by-minute, and a window that won’t stop arguing with the record. Part I rebuilds the night of May 3, 2007 inside Apartment 5A: the Tapas rota and walking routes, who checked and how (listening vs. looking), the ~21:05 visual, the ~21:10–15 lane sighting, the ~21:30–40 listening pass, and the ~22:00 discovery—bedroom window open, shutter raised, one bed empty. We map the search as it ripples from the patio to the lanes and beach, and set the two child-carrying sightings in time and space without jumping to conclusions. No suspects list, no later-years theories—only the geometry of doors, distances, and human clocks under stress, and the disciplined language we’ll carry through the series: what holds, what’s contested, and what the night itself can bear.

Episode 46-Bon Scott — “Misadventure, Midnight, and the Birth of Back in Black”

Before there was a verdict, there was a voice. We trace Bon Scott from Scotland to Australia to the front of AC/DC—how his grin, pen, and sandpaper howl turned a hard-touring bar band into a global machine through High Voltage, Let There Be Rock, Powerage, and the breakthrough Highway to Hell. Then London, February 1980: a night out ending in a small car on Overhill Road, a hospital pronouncement, and a coroner’s verdict—acute alcohol poisoning, death by misadventure. We rebuild the last hours through Alistair Kinnear’s account, explain what “misadventure” actually means in a U.K. inquest, and test the popular theories—aspiration and cold exposure vs. more speculative claims—against the public record. Finally, we sit with the aftermath: Brian Johnson’s arrival, a black-covered memorial that became one of history’s best-selling albums, and why Bon’s death still invites arguments long after the file says “case closed.” No theatrics—just the difference between legend and what the paperwork will hold.

Part 45- Max DeVries · Part II — “Currents, Accounts, and the Open Sea”

Part II sets the story against the water and the record. We rebuild the minute-by-minute timeline from launch to first search call and test the returning companion’s account—stall, separation, drift—against wind, set, and what the sea typically gives back. With care, we also address what reputable reporting has put on the record about the two American men who befriended Max’s family: a past police statement involving “crimes against children,” no names published, and no charges in Max’s case. From there, we keep it procedural—how investigators would vet backgrounds, consolidate statements, and re-run the physics with 2025 tools (drift reanalysis, AIS overlays, hour-meter/maintenance checks). No theatrics, no speculation—just the difference between a narrative that floats and one that carries weight, and a practical checklist of what would actually move the file.
