May 04, 2022 Fordlandia, Hilariously Failed Utopia | Case File #111
In the 1920s, Henry Ford, inventor of the assembly line, tried to create a utopian capitalist city in Brazil. It was essentially a slave camp. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, American companies discovered a wealth of natural resources in Central America and basically decided to take it for all its worth. Tons of American corporations pillages the countryside, taking over countries, buying up all their land, and forcibly becoming their largest source of economy. In 1928, Henry Ford, founder of Ford Motor Company, tried his hand at it with a rubber-mining company town he dubbed Fordlandia. It was a hilariously epic failure.

April 27, 2022 The Cute Copaganda of Sam & Max | Case File #110
It was an indie comic that became a seminal 90s point & click adventure game. Its the little franchise that could and still endures to this day. In the late 1980s, Steve Purcell created Sam & Max - a zany, madcap comic about a buddy cop duo of a talking dog and a weird bunny rabbit creature named Sam & Max. Then he got a job as an animator at the famed Lucasfilm Games studio. Eventually, he was approached to make a game based on the characters. For the next few decades, this franchise persevered solely based on Purcell's unstoppable insistence on cheerleading for these two delightful characters. And, somehow, we've gotten dozens of pieces of media about these beloved talking animals. On this episode of Deep Cuts, we explore the wonderful but insane world of Sam & Max.

April 20, 2022 Real Life Criminal Doogie Howser | Case File #109
He was a doctor at the age of 17 and opened up his own medical practice where he treated patients...except he wasn't actually a doctor at all... At the age of 17, Alexander Love Robinson had achieved things many of us could never fathom doing at that age. He had secured funding to open up his own medical practice in Florida - and he was the world's youngest practicing physician. The only problem was that he wasn't a real doctor, and everything he told his business partners and patients was a total lie.

April 13, 2022 The Most Unbelievable Dinosaur Hoax Of All Time | Case File #108
They claimed a team of home school kids excavated a dinosaur skeleton and it proved the Earth was only 6,000 years old. The entire thing was a lie. In the early 2000s, a small religious home school supply company released a documentary. The movie claimed to depict a group of 30 home school kids discovering and excavating a fully-intact Allosaurus skeleton - the first of its kind ever found. The documentary was massively popular on the religious home school racket, and made the company owner, Doug Phillips, rich. However, as time went on, people would slowly discover the truth - that the entire thing was a lie. And Doug Phillips was hiding something even darker. On this episode of Deep Cuts, we examine the craziest dinosaur hoax in history.

March 30, 2022 When Conan Got Screwed By Jay Leno and NBC | Case File #106
They gave him the Tonight Show and then took it away and it created a nationwide outcry. But how do we feel about it now? In the late 2010s, Conan O'Brien was handed the hosting gig for the mother of all late night talk shows, The Tonight Show. However, after several months, slipping ratings, and a weird time slot kerfuffle with previous Tonight Show host Jay Leno, Conan ended up walking away from his dream job. The fallout of it sent a shockwave through the late night world as well as Conan's fans, and people rallied around the unfortunate comedian. But let's look back on this controversy today and see how we really feel about it. On this episode of Deep Cuts, we re-examine the Late Night Wars 2.

March 23, 2022 JZ Knight, Soccer Mom Cult Leader | Case File #105
She claims to channel a 35,000-year-old spirit. She's been responsible for death and abuse for decades. In the 80s, JZ Knight emerged as a member of the growing community of spiritual mediums that could channel a spirit and allow it to speak through them. Her spirit was named Ramtha, and he was a 35,000-year-old Atlantean spirit that came to Earth to...start a cult, go on self help public speaking tours, sell video tapes, scam his followers for millions of dollars, and allow horrible abuse to go on in his community? On this episode of Deep Cuts, we explore the bizarre world of JZ Knight.
