Saturday 19th of December 1992 at 2:20pm, behind a wooden hut at White City bus depot off Caxton Road in Shepherd's Bush, the body of 32-year-old successful Peter Wickins was found, he was naked except for a pair of socks and had been stabbed 19 times. The Police assumed because he was a millionaire dressed in a tuxedo and that his Rolex watch was missing, that it must be a robbery gone wrong. But it led to a story which was much darker, as one of life's winners... met one of life's losers.Murder Mile is one of the best UK / British true crime podcasts covering only 20 square miles of West London.

On this week's episode, Cody kicks things off with some exciting news that has sparked nostalgia among tech enthusiasts: the much-anticipated return of a beloved classic phone, coinciding with the 25th anniversary of the iconic Nokia 3210. This device, which was a game-changer in the early 2000s, is fondly remembered for its durability, simplicity, and the unforgettable experience of playing Snake on its monochrome screen. This nostalgic moment seamlessly transitions into a broader discussion about other vintage pre-iPhone cell phones that left a mark on mobile technology, including the T-Mobile Sidekick, known for its unique flip design and full QWERTY keyboard, which made texting a breeze, and the HTC Dream, which was the first phone to run on the Android operating system, paving the way for the smartphone revolution we see today. As the conversation unfolds, Joe chimes in with fond memories of his all-time favorite long-gone phone, the Palm Pre. Joe reflects on the innovative features of the Palm Pre, such as its compact design, multitasking capabilities, and the unique gesture-based interface that set it apart from its contemporaries. He shares personal anecdotes about how the Palm Pre was not just a device for communication but a gateway to a new way of interacting with technology that many users found revolutionary at the time. The episode then shifts gears as the hosts delve into some intriguing movie news, particularly focusing on the upcoming adaptation of Erik Larson's critically acclaimed book, The Devil in the White City. This gripping narrative intertwines the true stories of the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago and the infamous serial killer H.H. Holmes, exploring themes of ambition, innovation, and the darker sides of human nature. The discussion highlights the potential for this adaptation to captivate audiences with its rich historical context and thrilling plot. Following this cinematic exploration, Joe introduces listeners to an exciting new Kickstarter campaign for the beloved sci-fi series, The Expanse. He discusses how this campaign aims to engage fans and support the continuation of the series, which has garnered a dedicated following due to its complex characters, intricate political plots, and realistic portrayal of space travel. The conversation touches on the importance of fan support in the entertainment industry and how crowdfunding has become a vital tool for creators looking to bring their visions to life. To wrap up the episode, the hosts provide a brief update on the iconic Bond franchise, particularly focusing on the recent developments surrounding its future under Amazon's stewardship. They discuss the potential leads and creative talents being considered to take the reins of the franchise, exploring how this new direction could influence the legacy of 007 and what fans might expect from future installments. As the episode concludes, listeners are left with a sense of nostalgia for the past, excitement for the present, and curiosity about the future of both technology and entertainment.Official Website: https://www.comesnaturallypodcast.comOfficial Merchandise: https://shop.spreadshirt.com/comes-naturally-podcast/iTunes: http://tinyurl.com/kqkgackFacebook: http://tinyurl.com/myovgm8Tumblr: http://tinyurl.com/m7a6mg9Twitter: @ComesNaturalPodYouTube: http://tiny.cc/5snxpy

The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic, and Madness at the Fair that Changed America by Erik Larson has been floating around in the American pop cultural stew for the last 22 years. Paris had always been interested in reading it, so when it happened to be in a pile of books some friends were giving away, she heeded the call of our dark lord and tossed it on the schedule for 2025. Get on your fancy new bicycles, affix a lightbulb to the front, grab a can of PBR, and somehow also balance a bowl of Shredded Wheat while you're at it for a wild journey from the 1880s through the early 20th century. Paris leads us through Larson's dual accounts of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair and its Director of Work, Daniel Hudson Burnham, alongside the Chicago years of "America's first serial killer", H.H. Holmes (Herman Webster Mudgett). If you think you know the Holmes story because you already read this book or saw some TV dramatization - you don't. Together, we'll discover that misinformation and disinformation have suffused this story for 120 years (and counting)! Thanks to Ken from the Antiques Freaks for helping me down the research rabbit hole & to Adam Selzer for a stellar book, without which much of our disappointment in and suspicions of Larson's tale would not have been justified and relieved.  In addition to our usual barnyard language, today's episode includes swindling/fraud, infidelity, sexism, racism, and murder.

Tel Aviv is known as the "White City." In this episode, we sit on Rothschild Boulevard in Tel Aviv admiring the unique International or Bauhaus style of architecture all around us and explain why UNESCO recognized Tel Aviv as a World Heritage Site calling naming it the White City. 

We visit Ostuni, Puglia's città bianca - the White City. Because we live in Puglia all year round we keep our finger on the pulse. Insider tips and hacks (parking in Ostuni? We have it covered), plus our recommendations on where to eat = where we eat. Eat like a local. Avoid the tourist traps, recommended by one tourist to another, where no locals would go - because the food is just average, and overpriced. We eat better, for less. We explain why Ostuni makes the perfect base for your Puglia vacation, help you plan the perfect Puglia itinerary from a base in Ostuni, and list the Valle d'Itria's best beaches (and tell you where to park). All that plus a hack on saving money on booking accommodation in Ostuni.

My special guest is Kate Winkler Dawson here to discuss her new book American Sherlock about America's first and greatest forensic scientist.  Get her book on Amazon.   From the acclaimed author of Death in the Air ("Not since Devil in the White City has a book told such a harrowing tale"--Douglas Preston) comes the riveting story of the birth of criminal investigation in the twentieth century.   Berkeley, California, 1933. In a lab filled with curiosities--beakers, microscopes, Bunsen burners, and hundreds upon hundreds of books--sat an investigator who would go on to crack at least two thousand cases in his forty-year career. Known as the "American Sherlock Holmes," Edward Oscar Heinrich was one of America's greatest--and first--forensic scientists, with an uncanny knack for finding clues, establishing evidence, and deducing answers with a skill that seemed almost supernatural.   Heinrich was one of the nation's first expert witnesses, working in a time when the turmoil of Prohibition led to sensationalized crime reporting and only a small, systematic study of evidence. However with his brilliance, and commanding presence in both the courtroom and at crime scenes, Heinrich spearheaded the invention of a myriad of new forensic tools that police still use today, including blood spatter analysis, ballistics, lie-detector tests, and the use of fingerprints as courtroom evidence. His work, though not without its serious--some would say fatal--flaws, changed the course of American criminal investigation.   Based on years of research and thousands of never-before-published primary source materials, American Sherlock captures the life of the man who pioneered the science our legal system now relies upon--as well as the limits of those techniques and the very human experts who wield them.Follow Our Other ShowsFollow UFO WitnessesFollow Crime Watch WeeklyFollow Paranormal FearsFollow Seven: Disturbing Chronicle StoriesJoin our Patreon for ad-free listening and more bonus content.Follow us on Instagram @mysteriousradioFollow us on TikTok mysteriousradioTikTok Follow us on Twitter @mysteriousradio Follow us on Pinterest pinterest.com/mysteriousradio Like us on Facebook Facebook.com/mysteriousradio]

DOMINIC NOLAN chats to Paul about WHITE CITY, character, tone, London and villains. WHITE CITY: It's 1952, and London is victorious but broken, a city of war ruins and rationing, run by gangsters and black-market spivs.An elaborate midnight heist, the biggest robbery in British history, sends newspapers into a frenzy. Politicians are furious, the police red-faced. They have suspicions but no leads. Hunches but no proof.For two families, it is more than just a sensational headline, as their fathers fail to return home on the day of the robbery.Young Addie Rowe, daughter of a missing Jamaican postman and drunk ex-club hostess mother, struggles to care for her little sister in a dilapidated Brixton rooming house.Claire Martin, increasingly resentful of roads not taken, strives to make the rent and keep her teenage son Ray from falling under unsavoury influences in Notting Dale.She finds herself caught between the interests of dangerous men who may know the truth behind her husband's disappearance: Dave Lander, whose reserved nature she finds difficult to reconcile with his reputation as a violent gang enforcer, and Teddy 'Mother' Nunn, a sociopathic, evangelising outlaw and top lieutenant in Billy Hill's underworld.Drawn together through the years in the city's invisible web of crime and poverty, the fates of the broken families and violent men collide in 1958, as the West Indian community of Notting Hill's slums come under attack from thugs and Teddy Boys. For Addie, Claire, Dave and Mother, old scores will be settled and new dreams chased in the crucible of London's violent summer.Dominic Nolan lives in London.

Our card this week is Ralph Salazar and Alice Griego, the Ace of Hearts from Utah.Back in October of 2023, we were contacted by one of Alice Griego's son, Frankie, about covering his mother's case. He was a listener of The Deck and had previously heard us cover cases in Utah. Unknown to him, our reporting team had already flagged his mother's case as one we needed to take a closer look at. Not just because it was unsolved, but because we felt it had never received the full coverage it deserved. And we are confident someone out there knows the truth. Maybe it's time for that someone to come forward…If you have any information about the murders of Ralph Salazar and Alice Griego in December of 2012 in White City, Utah, please contact Salt Lake County Sheriff's Detective Ben Pender at (385) 468-9816 or email him at bpender@saltlakecounty.gov. View source material and photos for this episode at: thedeckpodcast.com/ralph-salazar-alice-griego Let us deal you in… follow The Deck on social media.Instagram: @thedeckpodcast | @audiochuckTwitter: @thedeckpodcast_ | @audiochuckFacebook: /TheDeckPodcast | /audiochuckllcTo support Season of Justice and learn more, please visit seasonofjustice.org.The Deck is hosted by Ashley Flowers. Instagram: @ashleyflowersTikTok: @ashleyflowerscrimejunkieTwitter: @Ash_FlowersFacebook: /AshleyFlowers.AFText Ashley at 317-733-7485 to talk all things true crime, get behind the scenes updates, and more!

We speak with the award-winning, historical author Erik Larson about his new book, "The Demon of Unrest,” focused on the months leading up to the American Civil War. We discuss how the book delves into the origins of the war, whether anything could have been done to prevent it, the crises over electoral vote certification and inauguration, and the striking parallels to January 6, 2021. We discuss the similarities between that era and today, given the modern concerns of a new civil war, and the lessons from that time. Erik also shares his insights on the role of individuals like Abraham Lincoln, authors and activists in shaping history. We also explore Erik's meticulous research and writing process, as well as the origins of his acclaimed book, "Devil in the White City." Join us for a fascinating conversation that bridges past and present, revealing the threads that connect historical events to our current era. **Mo News Premium For Members-Only Instagram, Private Podcast: (Click To Join)** — Mosheh Oinounou (@mosheh) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist.

Journalist and best-selling author Erik Larson joined Midday in May to discuss his most recent book. The Demon of Unrest: A Saga of Hubris, Heartbreak, and Heroism at the Dawn of the Civil War is a granular look at the five months between the election of Abraham Lincoln in November 1860 and the Confederate attack on Fort Sumter in April 1861. For Larson, this period is consequential for the subsequent conflict and for the nation's trajectory. The book concludes where the war begins; The bombardment of the Union fort in South Carolina. 6 of Larson's previous 8 books have become New York Times best-sellers, and his subject matter ranges widely. In The Devil in the White City, he wrote about the 1893 Chicago World's Fair and was a finalist for the National Book Award.

On the Saturday of Labor Day weekend, 1974, the Cowden family, which consisted of Richard Cowden, 28, Belinda, 22, David, 5, and Melissa, 5 months, made a spontaneous decision to go camping at one of their favorite spots, Carbury Creek, 40 miles to the Southwest from where they lived in White City, Oregon. They packed the truck then stopped off at the General Store in Copper, Oregon to visit Belinda's mother, Ruth Grayson. Ruth offered to have the family over for lunch the next day, Sunday. The family agreed and set off.But when the next night rolled around and Ruth still hadn't heard from her daughter and her family, she made the mile drive to go look for them. What she found was concerning. Melissa's diaper bag and fishing poles were next to some trees. Richard's wallet and watch were on the ground, along with Belinda's cigarettes. And some milk and water had been left out on a picnic table. There was no sign of the Cowden family.A search began that same day and lasted for months. Until finally, half a year later, the family's bodies were discovered near and inside an old mining cave. But who would do such a thing? And what sort of depraved killer would have wanted a young, innocent family dead?Show Notes:https://www.imdb.com/title/tt22138532/https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6372106-but-i-trusted-you-and-other-true-cases

A giant in the industry and an immense talent, Erik is turning his attention to the beginnings of the Civil War in his latest, The Demon of Unrest. It's the nail biting account of how we ended up turning guns against one another, North to South, with a specific focus on the stand off at Fort Sumter. Told through the eyes of rich characters through their unique perspectives, Larson brings new learning to an oft discussed topic…how the Union tore itself apart over slavery. You won't want to miss this one.
