Falsely Accused in the Anthrax Case: Dr. Stephen Hatfill Speaks Out

Falsely Accused in the Anthrax Case: Dr. Stephen Hatfill Speaks Out

This episode is a long-form conversation with Dr. Stephen Hatfill about the FBI’s handling of the 2001 anthrax attacks and the years he spent under a cloud of suspicion. Greta frames the interview around a central question: how does the government fail to solve five murders, then aggressively target a man it never arrests, and eventually exonerate him years later without ever truly making things right? Hatfill describes being drawn into the case after taking a polygraph and initially believing the matter was over, only to find himself publicly treated as the prime suspect through leaks, media speculation, apartment searches, and a years-long reputational destruction campaign. He argues the FBI was rudderless, desperate to appear active, and willing to let his life be crushed rather than admit it had no real evidence. The conversation widens into a broader indictment of institutional failure. Hatfill says the government never properly apologized, that the media eagerly amplified the accusations, and that the entire ordeal made him essentially unemployable for years even as he continued other specialized national security and medical training work. He also questions the official handling of the anthrax evidence itself, suggests the powder was sophisticated enough to imply state-level capability, and raises lingering doubts about whether the public ever got a real answer about where the anthrax originated. What emerges is not just Hatfill’s personal story, but a deeply skeptical portrait of the FBI, the press, and a political system that, in his view, preferred protecting itself over finding the truth.

"The Golf Bag Held The Murder Knife" – OJ Manager Mike Gilbert Exposes The Trial's Darkest Secrets

In this raw, behind-the-scenes interview, Mike Gilbert — OJ Simpson’s longtime manager, agent, and one of his closest friends for decades — reveals explosive details about the 1994 murders and the Trial of the Century. Gilbert discloses that OJ privately confessed to him, stating, “If she wouldn’t have opened the door with a knife, she’d still be alive,” and explains how heavy doses of Prozac transformed OJ’s personality in the weeks before the killings. He discusses the suspicious golf bag (believed to contain the knife and bloody evidence), the defense’s glove demonstration strategy, Bob Kardashian secretly feeding information to author Lawrence Schiller, and OJ’s emotional breakdown in jail. Gilbert also shares the devastating personal cost of standing by OJ and why he believes the murders would never have happened without the medication. This is one of the most intimate insider accounts from someone who was with OJ from the Bronco chase through the acquittal and beyond. Got a comment or question?

Preaching Behind the Old Iron Curtain: Franklin Graham in Belarus

This episode is a firsthand account from Belarus, where Greta joins Franklin Graham during his Festival of Hope in Minsk. The heart of the story is how extraordinary the event is: an evangelical preacher is allowed to come into Belarus, preach with the blessing of President Lukashenko, and fill a 10,000-seat arena with thousands more in overflow — all without formal advertising, relying only on word of mouth through hundreds of churches. Greta frames it as more than a religious event; it is also a rare thaw in a difficult and often hostile relationship between Belarus and the United States, made even more striking by Graham’s private meeting with Lukashenko and the decision to have the crowd pray for him. The episode then pivots sharply from revival to crisis management. Between the first and second nights in Belarus, Graham learns of a new Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the conversation shifts to Samaritan’s Purse preparing an emergency response. Greta uses that moment to show the breadth of Graham’s work: one hour he is preaching the gospel before thousands, and the next he is coordinating planes, protective gear, water systems, and assessment teams for one of the world’s deadliest outbreaks. The result is both a portrait of an unusual diplomatic-religious breakthrough in Belarus and a look at the speed, scale, and seriousness of the humanitarian work Graham’s organization takes on around the world.

Jessica Marquez Shares the Story Behind Her Husband’s Life-Saving Kidney

This episode tells the deeply personal story of Greta’s producer, Jessica Marquez, whose husband spent nearly five years on nightly dialysis while waiting for a kidney transplant. Jessica describes the exhausting reality of structuring family life around his treatment, raising a young child during that period, and living with the uncertainty of whether a transplant would ever come. When the long-awaited call finally arrives in September 2024, the relief is immediate but cautious, shaped by earlier false alarms and the fear that something could still go wrong. The story then opens into something even more moving: the discovery of the donor’s identity and the eventual meeting between Jessica’s family and the family of the young man whose organs saved six lives. The donor, Ronald Schowski, was a 27-year-old Navy serviceman who died in a hit-and-run while visiting the United States from Japan. Jessica describes how emotional it was to meet his parents, siblings, and widow, and how the encounter became not just an expression of gratitude but the beginning of a lasting bond between two families linked by tragedy and generosity. The episode becomes a reflection on grief, resilience, organ donation, and the extraordinary way one life can continue through others. Got a comment or question?

The Vacation That Turned Into a Nightmare: Yvonne DeVries Tells Her Story

This episode is a deeply personal conversation with Yvonne DeVries about the 2004 disappearance of her 14-year-old son, Max, in Aruba, a case Greta says never received the attention it deserved. Yvonne recounts traveling to Aruba with her children as a healing trip after the death of her husband, only to have the vacation turn tragic when Max vanished during a jet ski outing with an older American man they had met at the hotel. She describes how quickly her suspicions formed, how the stories given about what happened on the water kept changing, and how Aruban authorities, in her view, failed to investigate obvious red flags from the start. The conversation expands into a broader indictment of how the case was handled over the years. Yvonne explains why she believes there was more than mere incompetence involved, pointing to contradictory statements, a troubling background connected to the man who was with Max, and a pattern of official indifference that left her searching for answers largely on her own. Greta frames the case as one that still feels unfinished and suspicious, especially given what she has learned over two decades of reporting on Aruba and other disappearance cases. The result is not just a retelling of Max’s disappearance, but a portrait of a mother still living with unanswered questions and still refusing to let her son’s story disappear.
