Specifically, Audacy has announced the revival as a weekly podcast. The creators will also expand the show into a dynamic video format. As a result, fans will get gripping, character-driven storytelling on YouTube.

He brings over two decades of extensive television and film experience. The thrilling new season premieres everywhere on Thursday, October 29. Listeners can find the podcast on YouTube and standard audio platforms. Subsequently, creators will release new episodes every single Thursday. The team will also drop exciting case updates on select Tuesdays.
Historic and Hidden Mysteries
The acclaimed series relentlessly explores mysterious murders and strange disappearances. It also investigates wanted fugitives and deeply confusing, unexplained deaths. This season tackles enduring puzzles like Amelia Earhart’s disappearance. It also highlights Malaysia Airlines Flight 370. The team also details the Boston Stewart Gardner Museum heist.
