Listen Bro

This time we have a conversation about the Lizzie Borden case. Could she have done it? Was it John Morse? Were the Borden axe murders committed by some intruder? We speculate, but don't get your hopes up, the Borden Family Axe Murders are still unsolved.

Netflix just released Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story. How much of it is true? Well...not that much. Ethan knows the true story, Joe only knows Netflix's version. We tell both in this episode. It's up to you to decide, is Lizzie Borden guilty?

Book: The Trial of Lizzie Borden by Cara Robertson

Another Listen Bro Unscripted that goes all over the place. The movie about Yossi Ghinsbergh's survival, other shows and movies, theories about future archaeologists, Apple buys their parts from Samsung, and athlete drama.

A boy was kidnapped, but 8 months later he was returned to his family. Or was he? Learn about the Bobby Dunbar mystery in this episode, and in the second half, hear about Ferdinand Magellan's expedition that sailed around the world. He discovered giants, named the Pacific Ocean, and decided to join in on a war.

In this Unscripted episode we complain about unfinished storylines in canceled TV shows. Compare the Coliseum to modern stadiums. Talk about North Korea a bit. And Ethan really hates this common myth about the Great Wall of China.

Joe hijacked this episode to tell the survival tale of Yossi Ghinsberg. Stranded in the Amazon jungle of Bolivia for weeks! Listen to the twisted story of how he got there, how he survived, and the surprising twist when he gets rescued!

Book: Jungle by Yossi Ghinsberg

The first episode of Listen Bro Unscripted! Rather than a researched report, this is a casual conversation about anything that might come up! In this episode, are women actually worse drivers? How are we supposed to keep up with the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Soccer after the World Cup. And a newly identified species of Anaconda.....bigger than ever!

The conclusion to the wild life of the Unkillable Soldier (Adrian Carton de Wiart). Plane crashes, prison escapes, WW2, and the one thing that finally kills our hero. AND, George Washington is underrated as President. His role as first President of the young nation established what a President is.
