This week on Eavesdroppin', Geordie & Michelle look at a hottie conspiracy theorist and the suave hijacker DB Cooper...
What happened to UFO hunter and world-renowned British conspiracy theorist Maxwell Bates Spiers? Handsome, high energy and full of wacky theories, Max was and in-demand speaker and panelist all over the world on subjects as diverse as UFOs, the paranormal and political conspiracy theories. So when he died suddenly in Poland in 2016 at a friend’s home, the conspiracy theories turned inwards, fuelled by poor police work from the Polish authorities and a mysterious text from Max to his mother. Was he murdered? Was foul play involved? Or did he die from dodgy Xanax? Listen now to Geordie’s deep dive.
Michelle follows with the mysterious mystery of DB Cooper. In 1971, Dan Cooper paid 20 bucks at Portland airport for a flight to Seattle and boarded a Northwest Orient flight wearing a dark suit, a tie with a tie clip and an attache case. He ordered some booze, lit up a cig and then handed one of the flight attendants a note saying he wanted 200,000 US dollars, 4 parachutes and that he had a bomb in his bag. What ensued was quiet chaos. Dan jumped out of the plane, clutching the money, and was never seen again. So what happened to DB Cooper? Who the hell is Dan Cooper? And where's the money? Listen now to hear Michelle discuss recent thoughts and theories.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
