In 1896, the cities of St. Louis and East St. Louis were enjoying an economic boom that led to skyscrapers, mansions, and a 'tornado-proof' bridge connecting the two cities. That progress was unfortunately paused at the end of May, when an F4 tornado went straight through the downtowns of both cities. On this episode, Ella and our special guest host discuss architecture, bridges, tornado damage, and a building made of popsicle sticks. Sources for this episode include: “The Great Cyclone of 1896” Digital exhibit at St. Louis Public Library “Tornadoes in the Past”, The Tornado Project, 1999  “The Great Cyclone at St. Louis and East St. Louis, May 27, 1896, Being A Full History of the Most Terrifying and Destructive Tornado In The History Of The World”, by J Curzon, 1897 “On This Day: The Great St. Louis Tornado of 1896”, staff writer for NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information website, 2017 “It all Happened in 20 Minutes: In 1896, The Great Cyclone Ripped Through St. Louis”,  T.

Phoenix Coldon was just 23 when she disappeared from East St.Louis, IL. Her 1998 Chevy Blazer was found parked in a traffic lane at a stop sign, but there was no sign of where she went. In the days and weeks leading up to her disappearance she seemed paranoid and was telling people she was unhappy and just wanted to start over. This is one case where voluntary disappearance is a real, plausible theory. If you would rather watch a video of me talking about the case then visit my YouTube! Or check out Tik Tok for shorter case videos!If you have any information in the case call (314)615-5400.Phoenix Coldon was a high achiever. She was homeschooled most of her life even though friends would later say she didn't like it very much; she wanted to experience the normal events and social life. She finally got this freedom and social life when she went to college at 18. Her parents co-signed on an apartment that they thought she was sharing with a female friend but later found out she was sharing with a secret boyfriend. This was not the only secret Phoenix had before her disappearance. Phoenix's car was found in a traffic lane in East St.Louis, IL just hours after she disappeared but her parent's didn't find out about it until about two weeks later. For years it was reported that the car was on with the keys in the ignition and the door was open when found...but the officer that responded to the call of a abandoned car later stated that none of this was true. Lots of things about Phoenix's life came out during the investigation into her disappearance. She had two phones to hide her secret boyfriend from her other boyfriend and from her parents. She had recorded a video in her car stating she wasn't happy and just wanted to start over. She had been fighting with her supposedly to strict parents. She had also thought people were following her and even pulled a knife on her best friend.
