  • 77: David O'Sullivan: Idyllwild, CA
    May 15 2025
    It was a quiet spring morning in Idyllwild, California - April 7, 2017 - when 25 year old David O’Sullivan put on his backpack, stepped onto the Pacific Crest Trail, and vanished.
    The Irish hiker had come to America chasing a dream: to walk from Mexico to Canada, alone, through some of the country’s wildest landscapes. The day before, he’d sent a brief email from the town’s small library - his last known communication.
    Since then, there’s been nothing. No calls. No confirmed sightings. No trace of him.
    How does someone disappear on one of the most traveled trails in the US?
    What happened to David O’Sullivan? And where is he now?
    Listen as we dive into the Pacific Crest Trail, the case of David O'Sullivan, and how to stay alive on vacation.

  • 76: Valerie De La Valdene: Santa Cruz, Galápagos Islands
    May 8 2025
    She was known as “Shark Girl” - a fearless underwater photographer who swam with predators most of us only dare to watch on TV.
    At 48, Valerie de la Valdene had it all: a career that earned her a spot in the Women Divers Hall of Fame, features on Shark Week, a culinary education under a world-renowned chef, and the kind of wealth that came with a prestigious family name.
    But in June 2014, Valerie was found dead in the Galapagos Islands - a single gunshot wound to the left temple.
    Authorities called it a suicide. But the scene? It told a different story.
    And when you follow the trail of strange details and unanswered questions, it begins to look a lot less like self-destruction… and a lot more like murder.
    Listen as we dive into the Galápagos Islands, the case of Valerie de la Valdene, and how to stay alive on vacation.

  • 75: Ray Gricar: Lewisburg, Pennsylvania
    May 1 2025
    On April 15, 2005, District Attorney Ray Gricar took the day off, got in his car, and set out on a quiet road trip—just a short drive to clear his head. But he never came home. His car was later found abandoned, his wallet and phone missing, and his laptop destroyed and dumped in a river. And then... nothing.
    In this episode, we explore the mysterious disappearance of Ray Gricar—a seasoned prosecutor who had spent decades putting criminals behind bars. Did he walk away from his life? Was he targeted? Or did he uncover something so dangerous it made him disappear?
    Listen as we dive into Pennsylvania, the case of Ray Gricar, and how to stay alive on vacation.
