In this episode of The Curious Realm, host Christopher Jordan welcomes researcher Jean Broida to discuss the Nazca Lines of Peru. With a long-fabled history, these mysterious petroglyphs depict everything from, monkeys, to birds, to men and complex geometric shapes. But what are these large-scale messages for, and how were they created with such precision? In the second part of the episode, we welcome retired Travis County Sherriff and paranormal detective, Greg Lawson to discuss the ongoing case of the “Rainey Street Ripper” in Austin, Texas. As a former detective with years of experience investigating waterborne crime scenes and training detectives in the same, Greg has a unique insight to the cases involved. What are the forensic facts behind the cases of able-bodied men being found drowned in Lady Bird Lake in Austin? Is there a serial killer on the loose, or is there more to the story? Join the Curious Realm as we delve into the topics of the Nazca lines with Jean Broida and the Rainey Street Ripper with Greg Lawson.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
