In 1943, following the Battle of Tunisia, the Allies planned to attack Italy through Sicily- but Sicily was extremely well defended by Germany and the cost of men and materials could prove disastrous. We needed to make Hitler believe that the attack would come through the Greek islands and the Balkans. British intelligence, with the help of Lt. Commander Ian Fleming, who later would become the author of the James Bond novels- had what looked like a wild idea- to find a fresh corpse, give him an

In 1900 the port city of Galveston, Texas was the 3rd largest city in Texas, boasting a population of 38,000 people, and they were doing so well with business that they had earned the nickname "the Wall Street of the South". Located as they were on a 25 mile strip of sand with Galveston Bay to the north and The Gulf of Mexico to the south, and being mostly at sea level- they were a prime target for a big storm. Some had hit but scored little damage- and the leaders of the city became over confident,

Part One: In 1836 Mexico had won its independence from Spain and was being ruled by a dictator named Santa Anna, who had a large army and used it mercilessly to hold on to his power. His biggest threat was an area we now call Texas, where both Americans and Mexican Tejanos who sought freedom were gathering and offering the promise of land to those who would fight to create a new republic called Texas.

This interview with the Cayce Institute's Peter Woodbury is a warm up for next week's THE CHILLING CASE OF CARL EDEN, a UK newspaper story from 2002 that really got people thinking about souls/spirits which decide to come back in a person.

My Note: Gremlins is one the first two podcasts I ever recorded. It has remained a listener favorite for years. The other podcast is titles "When John Wayne Went to Harvard". Gremlins is a little old and worn, but its a good story nonetheless Gremlins arrived long before the 1984 smash hit movie "Gremlins", although their nature was the same- troublesome, impish, and often mean little gnomes that created problems for anyone who came in contact with them. This was true for British airmen in WWI and
