Hello everyone! We're back from Thanksgiving Break and are joined with our good friend Matt Storm for a return episode talking about a phenomena focused on people vanishing without a trace. Matt is a PE teacher, fellow outdoorsman, coach and critical thinker when it comes to mysterious phenomena such as this one.  What is Missing 411? David Paulides, a former law enforcement officer and police detective, has documented people that disappear without a trace across the United States, Canada, and many other countries across the globe. We dive down the rabbithole and discuss some specific cases featured in Paulides' documentaries - Missing 411 (available on Youtube) and Missing 411: The Hunted (available for free with Amazon Prime) - and a few of his books. These people have been reported missing and have never been seen since their disappearance. These cases rule out suicide, crime, animal attacks and drowning - victims just seem to disappear out of thin air.  There are over 1,600 people in North America alone that are currently missing. What happened to them? Does anybody know? What are some of the theories that are currently being given thought? Check this episode out for more! Songs featured (now at the end) in this episode include -  "Red Lights" by Maximum Love, off their 2018 album, "Under the Shadow" "Ummon" by Slift, off their 2019 album, "Ummon" "Walking in the Snow" by Run the Jewels, off their 2020 album, "RTJ4"
