We head to Canada for some UFO action from the 1960s, a very compelling UFO incident that captured a nation, and somehow remained off the radar, both literally and figuratively...until recently.    

We dive into this incident and take look at the history of the incident, was it a cover up, misidentification, or all of the above...but the fact remains something happened.  The incident was witnessed by many people, from the military, pilots, to civilians...so what happened, what's the real story.  The evidence is compelling and remains mysterious.   

Well, we take a look at it...so sit back, grab a Molson and come on in the waters fine...maybe a lobster roll as well.  The lobster roll will become clear why that's important.

In this episode we are discussing 2 missing person cases, Brandon Swanson and Suzanne Lyall.  The missing, to be a family member, or a friend of a person who has gone missing must be a horrible tragic event to endure...the not knowing.  

Throughout the US and abroad, people go missing all over the world ever day, and some of these cases remain unsolved today.  

These 2 cases we are discussing today, Brandon Swanson and Suzanne Lyall remain unsolved today.  Brandon went missing in Minnesota, and Suzanne in New York.  As many unsolved missing cases, these are among 2 very strange cases which both of them spawned new laws to be created, Brandon's Law and Suzanne's Law.  

Hope you enjoy the show today, and thank you for listening to our podcast, we really appreciate it.

The battle of Guadalcanal during the relentless struggles for the control of the Pacific was one of the bloodiest battles during WWII.  The story of Marine Corp Mitchell Paige is nothing short of miraculous, he fought a battle so fierce, stood his ground and defended his position, even after everyone in his platoon was wounded or killed.  

He jumped between machine gun nests, hand to hand combat, lobbing grenades, until the Japanese troops eventually retreated.  A legendary event, granting Mitchell Paige the Medal of Honor.  

In 1998, Hasbro contacted Mitchell Paige and wanted to make a GI Joe in his likeness.  Mitchell Paige said yes, and he reached legendary status, lamented into the GI Joe realm.  

A little about Mitchell Paige and a history of GI Joe...a legend was made!

It's a Grab Bag Special!!!  

Greatest Movies of All Time!!!  

If you know anything about us, you know how the grab bag works...simple, we have an actual hat, with pieces of paper inside with movie titles written on them.  We each crafted our own movie slips, and dropped them in the hat...then we take turns picking a slip...and the fun begins.  

It is a riot, fun facts, and just pure chaos with hilarity sprinkled in!!!!  

Grab Bags are some of our favorite episodes to record!!!  

We drop a grab bag special every 10 episodes!!!!

The year is 1848, you find yourself in a dark, candle lit, dusty room, sitting around a table to witness the power of the Fox Sisters, and their ability to summon spirits from beyond the grave...so you think.  

We wander into the world of the Fox Sisters, a group of 3 sisters from the mid-1800s who had stumbled upon a money making scheme...accidentally, maybe, planned sure.  Their plans and schemes launched an entire generation of spiritualists, ghost hunters, and supernatural mentalists.  Were they real, fakers, or a mixture of all of the above.   

We dive into some of the psychology behind how these kind of schemes might work and why Houdini pops up in this story.  

Hope you enjoy this episode!!!

Welcome to the wild west, the open frontier, and some fine dining in San Francisco bay area in the 1850s....yum, what a gem!!  Probably frequent bathroom trips!!!! 

Hey, we are headed to San Fran to visit the Cobweb Palace, a fine dining establishment just for a wandering and hungry soul, who is searching for a pint of ale and a fine meal...good luck!  

The Cobweb Palace, aptly named for its crazy outwardly bizarre atmosphere, of spider webs abound...along with other crazy additions to the property (cougar in a cage in the entrance)...so grab some hand sanitizer, maybe some Tums and probably an antibiotic of some sort before dining here...you will probably need it...welcome!!!

We hit the flying fortress of WWII, flown by the self named crew the Eager Beavers!!!  Flying the 666 into battle in the Pacific...this story is nothing but legendary!!!  What these men endured is nothing short of miraculous, how they survived is absolutely amazing!!!  Some legends rise to the occasion, some are just born!  Encountering torturous skies, flying a bomber into a straight up dog-fight in the skies...removing gear to add more machine guns, thinking out of the box, a ruckus crew, and a bullet riddled plane...but yet they were destined to complete a series of crucial missions, whom some thought they'd never make it back...but they did!!!

So, sit back and enjoy your flight, buckle up, it's gonna be a wild ride!

We head to Germany, and pull in England, sprinkle in a little MI5...and bam!  You got Louis De Wohl...yup, lets pull in astrology to the war effort, we must use it to predict the movements of Hitler's Nazi's.  

We will also send Wohl to the United States and convince them we've used astrology and predicted the Nazi's will invade the US...oaky sure,  

No, you really can't make this stuff up...this is a bonkers episode, as we discuss the weird and strange life of Louis De Wohl, and his obsession with writing books, having completed his first novel at the age of 7...and so many more.  A practiced astrologists, and a devout Catholic...hmmm.

July 6th, 2019, Jeffrey Epstein was arrested by federal agents on human trafficking charges...

So we conclude our journey into the Epstein Files with part 3 of 3...in this episode we take a dive into the shady underbelly of Jeffrey Epstein's world, in a way we do here at Detectivery State of Mind...we want you to leave this final episode more knowledgeable, but not feeling like he's sitting next to you.  We tried to keep the gory details out.  

There is speculative discussions, investigative discussions, hypotheticals, the mystery behind his death, and pure uncomfortableness...so don't be scared, we were gentle.  

We have decided as a collective, we are going to leave Jeffrey Epstein where he currently is, dead!  

DOJ released Statement regarding 2.5 million more files related to the Epstein files will not be released:  https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2026/07/02/jeffrey-epstein-files-release-lawsuit-order-doj-responds/90783813007/
