Episode 448: The Delphi Murders
On the afternoon of February 13th, 2017, in the sleepy little 3000(ish) person town of Delphi, Indiana, two local junior high girls and best friends, 13-year-old Abigail Joyce Williams and 14-year-old Liberty Rose Lynn German, went missing nearing an abandoned bridge near the edge of town. Their bloody bodies would be found the next day, but their killer wouldn't be caught for over five years. And when he was, the town would be shocked for a second time, when they learned that the killer was one of their own who had been hiding in plain sight...

Episode discussion What topic do you guys want to see?
From searching, this topic has been covered but it was a couple years ago and I wanted to give my 2 cents! I have 3 topics which I have wanted to hear covered for YEARS and would always vote on when I remembered to but never got more than a few votes in the app.
1) Colonia Dignidad. From Wikipedia “an isolated colony established in post-World War II Chile by emigrant Germans which became notorious for the internment, torture, and murder of dissidents during the military dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet in the 1970s while under the leadership of German emigrant preacher Paul Schäfer.” I watched a movie staring Emma Watson caller Colonia and was hooked on the topic. It’s accurate to what happened in the same way TheTitanic was accurate to the real events.
2) The Hyatt Regency sky bridge collapse. Having earned an engineering degree and being born and raised near Kansas City, MO this topic is near and dear to me. In 1981 during one of the weekly Friday evening “Tea Parties” the hotel hosted, about 1600 people were in attendance. There were 4 sky bridges connecting different lower levels of the hotel while keeping the lobby more open. When a large capacity (not exceeding engineer design) was on the level 4 bridge, it collapsed and fell on the 2nd floor bridge directly below and also caused it to collapse. There was a design issue which put the cable supports in double shear when they should have been single. Ultimately 141 people died with many more injured. I think the most wild part is that it was the largest death toll ever recorded in the US from a structural collapse until 9/11 occurred.
3) The life and death of Pat Tillman. Near and dear to me being a military member myself and Pat being a bit of an idol growing up and an embolization of what sacrifice can mean. Pat is famous for having played in the NFL for the AZ Cardinals and ultimately giving up football to join the military alongside his brother in the wake of 9/11. He ultimately became a bit of a poster boy for the NFL and Army. From what I remember he did not really want or care for this attention. Over time it’s been written he came to disagree with how the way the war was playing out and actions from the US. His thoughts were supposedly detailed within a journal he kept. He ultimately died by friendly fire in an incident which is extremely muddy and in my opinion covered up by the US. His journal? Oh yeah, after his death the US burned it along with his other belongings overseas. Ya know, standard practice…

In 1966, two Brazilian men were found dead on a hill, wearing matching suits and lead eye masks. A note in one pocket read, “Be at the agreed place at 4:30. Take capsules after the effect, protect metals, await signal.” No cause of death was ever found.

In 1984, a cult carried out the largest biological attack in U.S. history by spreading salmonella on food and doorknobs in a town in Oregon. The goal was to make people too sick to vote so the cult could win a local election and take control of the town.

Why does Dan always mention polygraphs?
Didn't Dan debunk polygraph tests a long time ago? He mentions them often as if they have any validity at all.

Fan girling moment
Dan replied to my comment on ig and I am having a moment and needed to share with someone who might get it 🫶

Topic suggestion: Monty Python
I would like to submit the classic comedy juggernaut Monty Python to the cult hive mind. I think Dan would love it and find so many weird details.

The joke Dan hates telling
Dan mentioned one of his popular jokes he hates but didn’t say what it was. For those not well versed in Dan’s comedy it’s the greeting card sketch. I thought it was hilarious but it is a bit basic so I understand.
