Where is Andi? In August 2022, 24-year-old Andi Wagner disappeared from Evansville, Indiana. She was last heard from around August 5th or 6th, and her family officially reported her missing a few days later. Ever since, her loved ones have been fighting to keep her name out there so her case doesn't just fade into the background. In this episode, we focus on the ongoing efforts to bring Andi home. I share a clip from an interview by YouTuber JuJu’s Rabbit Hole featuring Andi’s cousin, Frankie Lee. Frankie opens up about the toll this has taken on the family and addresses some strange details surrounding the case, including a neighbor with a weird interest in ring camera footage from Andi's grandparents' house and a notebook left behind that listed names of people who might be connected to her disappearance. I also have a conversation with Rick White, the Emergency Management Director in Union County, Kentucky, who also runs the Tik Tok channel Front Porch America. Rick has stepped up to help lead independent search efforts. He breaks down how he got involved, the challenges of navigating private land and old strip mine pits, and his partnership with search teams like Narked Divers and Brothers Underwater Recovery to scan local waterways with sonar. Andi is 5'6" and around 115 pounds, with dark brown hair and brown eyes. She has a dreamcatcher tattoo on her left forearm and the name "Joshua Brown" tattooed on her right forearm. She was last seen wearing an orange tank top and jeans, and she frequently spent time in the Newburgh and Oakland City areas. If you or anyone you know has information about Andi Wagner, even a detail that seems tiny or insignificant, please call the Evansville Police Department Adult Investigations Unit at 812-436-7979.

The Kelly-Hopkinsville "Little Green Men" Encounter On August 21, 1955, eleven people at a farmhouse in Kelly, Kentucky, experienced one of the most famous and unsettling close encounters in UAP history. In this episode, I speak with Geraldine Sutton Stith, author and daughter of Elmer "Lucky" Sutton, one of the main witnesses to the events of that wild night. Geraldine shares what it was like growing up in the aftermath of a legendary event, passing down the real details of what her family saw, heard, and survived. We talk about how a quick trip to the outdoor water well turned into a hours-long siege by glowing, floating entities. Geraldine walks us through why the family resorted to firing shotguns through windows and doors, and how the creatures seemed impervious to bullets. We also dive into the wild "invasion of the people" that followed, as a media frenzy and curious locals ultimately forced the family to pack up and sell their home just weeks later. Along the way, we clear up some of the biggest myths surrounding the case, including the real origin of the phrase "Little Green Men," the persistent rumors about alcohol, and why the prank theory just doesn't hold up under scrutiny. Plus, she shares her experiences returning to the property years later and the physical traces left behind on the land. Geraldine is a fantastic storyteller with a perspective you just can't get anywhere else. If you are into local mysteries, UAP lore, or just a solid paranormal story, you will love this episode.

The Murder of Doris McDonough In this episode, I dive into a tragic cold case from right here in Evansville, Indiana: the October 3, 1968 murder of Doris McDonough. Doris was a 36-year-old mother of two who was brutally beaten to death in her own kitchen in the middle of the day. Decades later, her killer has never been named, and the case remains completely unsolved. The day started like any normal Thursday for the McDonough family. After their car broke down during an early morning paper route, William took their two young sons out on their bikes while Doris stayed behind at their home on Southeast Riverside Drive. Everything seemed fine when the boys left for school, but by early afternoon, Doris stopped answering the phone. Concerned, William asked a neighbor to go knock on the door. Moments later, the neighbor discovered Doris deceased on the kitchen floor. She had suffered severe trauma from a heavy blunt object. Strange details surrounding the scene raised immediate questions: there were no signs of forced entry, nothing of value was taken, and two towels were neatly folded around her head. The only thing missing from the house was a claw hammer. In the episode, I take a close look at the timeline William provided to local reporters just days after the crime, which leaves a lot of open questions. He claimed he stopped back home around 9:00 AM to drop off a son's clarinet, staying just long enough to chat about making a birthday cake, take out the trash, and agree to leave the back door unlocked for the morning light. However, running a sun path analysis for that exact date and address shows the sun wouldn't have even been shining through that door at 9:00 AM. Other stops on his morning schedule also seem remarkably rushed, including a client meeting at a coffee shop that lasted a total of five minutes. William eventually took a polygraph test that came back inconclusive. When asked about his wife’s death a year later, he simply remarked, "the less said about it, the better." He eventually remarried, relocated to South Carolina, and lived to be 86. His 2019 obituary detailed his career as a college professor and highlighted his 45-year second marriage, but omitted any mention of Doris or her untimely death. Doris McDonough deserves to be remembered, and her story shouldn't be swept under the rug. Give the episode a listen, and let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
