  • Thank you!

    The Golden Years will always be the original trio of Kyle, Mark, and Alejandro. I hope the new line up will find its groove. I’ll forever be thankful for the classic episodes and for the efforts of everyone involved in the pod!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Who Really Killed Kurt Cobain? New Murder Theory Unplugged (Episode 137 ft. Chris Todd)
Q: What leads you to believe this was a murder and not a suicide?
The evidence suggests staging, lack of fingerprints on the gun, and the presence of multiple people around at the time of death all point towards foul play rather than suicide.
Who Really Killed Kurt Cobain? New Murder Theory Unplugged (Episode 137 ft. Chris Todd)
Q: What was Kurt's state of mind before his death?
Kurt seemed to be entertaining others at the rehab center, which contradicts the notion of him being deeply depressed; he had a sarcastic sense of humor.
The Secrets Behind the Spills: The Deaths of ABC's Wipeout and More (Episode 133 ft. Peet Montzingo, Jacque Martinez and Ben Kissel)
Q: Would you ever do it again?
Yeah, but only if I was still in my 20s. I don't think I could physically do it now.
The Secrets Behind the Spills: The Deaths of ABC's Wipeout and More (Episode 133 ft. Peet Montzingo, Jacque Martinez and Ben Kissel)
Q: So when you see it on TV, how hard are these punching things?
They're pretty hard. They come out, they're on springs.
The Secrets Behind the Spills: The Deaths of ABC's Wipeout and More (Episode 133 ft. Peet Montzingo, Jacque Martinez and Ben Kissel)
Q: Alejandro, would you ever do it knowing what you do?
That was a hard no. No one has a teeth.
