In 1948, a man was found dead on Somerton Beach in Adelaide, Australia. He had no ID, no visible injuries, and no cause of death. Inside his pocket was a scrap of paper with the words “Tamám Shud”—Persian for “It is ended.” What followed was a decades-long mystery involving an uncrackable code, a rare book, a mysterious woman, and theories ranging from Cold War espionage to heartbreaking love. In this episode of Mysterious 51, we uncover the full story of the Somerton Man—and explore whether the recent DNA breakthrough has finally solved the case… or only deepened the mystery.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
