    Warning, spoilers ahead.

    Truthfully, I was fully expecting this to be a tale of murder, corruption and a possible treasure hunt.

    What I got was, instead, a wonderful biography of a troubled genius. I was genuinely sad when it was revealed John had ended his life. I could relate to the level of cynicism John portrayed. Perhaps, not as extreme, but relatable. Whilst the story of the gold and the scandal gets lost, it doesn’t matter when this is somewhat a tribute to John’s life. Brian’s approa... more

    I listened to this podcast when it was released. It was a formative podcast for me and set the standard high. I listen through it maybe once yearly - it’s still that good.

    I can’t believe I returned to this podcast for the fifth time to find it behind a paywall. Jon B would hate this more than anything. Shame on you.
