"Escape From Alcatraz"

    The June 1962 Alcatraz escape was a prison break from Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary, a maximum-security facility located on Alcatraz Island in San Francisco Bay.

    Late on the night of June 11 or early morning of June 12, inmates Clarence Anglin, John Anglin, and Frank Morris tucked papier-mâché heads resembling their own likenesses into their beds, broke out of the  main prison building via an unused utility corridor, and departed the  island aboard an improvised inflatable raft to an uncertain fate. A fourth conspirator, Allen West, failed in his escape attempt and remained on the island.

    Hundreds of leads were pursued by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and local law enforcement officials in the ensuing years, but no  conclusive evidence has ever surfaced favoring the success or failure of  the attempt. Numerous theories of widely varying plausibility have been proposed by  authorities, reporters, family members, and amateur enthusiasts. In 1979 the FBI officially concluded, on the basis of circumstantial  evidence and a preponderance of expert opinion, that the men drowned in  the frigid waters of San Francisco Bay before reaching the mainland. The U.S. Marshals Service case file remains open and active, however, and Morris and the Anglin brothers remain on its wanted list.

    New circumstantial and material evidence has continued to  surface, stoking new debates on whether the inmates managed to survive.

 "The Wow Signal"

    The Wow! signal was received on August 15, 1977, by the Big Ear radio telescope at Ohio State University.

    Astronomer Jerry R. Ehman discovered the anomaly a few days later.  Completely baffled and surprised by the result, he circled the reading and wrote the comment “Wow!” on its side. The Wow! Signal was born!

    The mysterious narrowband radio signal appeared to come from the direction of the constellation Sagittarius and remains the strongest candidate for an alien radio transmission ever detected.

    Even Ohio State University Radio Observatory director John Kraus wrote in a letter to Carl Sagan: “The  ‘Wow!’ signal is highly suggestive of extraterrestrial intelligent  origin but little more can be said until it returns for further study.“

    However, we still have no idea of the exact source of the strange  extraterrestrial message. Some scientists have suggested the signal  could have been caused by a comet orbiting in the inner solar system.

    But now, an amateur astronomer, Alberto Caballero, may have debunked the mystery behind the signal.

    After analyzing thousands of stars in the area the famous Wow! signal came from, he proposes in a pre-print paper that its source may be a Sun-like star, as explained in the video below.

    “The only potential Sun-like star in all the Wow! signal  region appears to be 2MASS 19281982-2640123. Despite this star is  located too far for sending any reply in the form of a radio or light  transmission, it could be a great target to make observations searching  for exoplanets around the star.“

    So are you now convinced? Or do you still believe the Wow! Signal is of extraterrestrial intelligent origin. I do in alien cities and planets.

 "Podcast Trailer: A Warning"

    If you are under the age of 18 or one of those who is faint of heart, easily offended or triggered, I'm sorry, but I have to tell you this podcast isn't for you. If you have read this warning or you make it past my disclaimer on every episode including this trailer, I am not liable for the distress I cause you and I'm sorry in advance for the troubling you. 

    Let me first just say, this podcast is meant solely for the purpose of entertainment, I personally am a pacifist and don't condone violence and am not set out to disturb others with such graphic and gruesome content, as this podcast does go into some details if necessary.

    This podcast talks about all sorts of assaults, murder and other crime cases that are unresolved. This podcast only talks about humans, I will not discuss cases about animals because I am very sensitive to that topic and I just can't talk about such topics. If you have cases about cases having to do with people, 5that's one thing, but I will not post stories about animals. 

    I also will not be interviewing minors. If you want to be interviewed and are 18 years of age or older, please reach out to goffpodcastediting@gmail.com with content suggestions and to request to be interviewed about unsolved cases. I will not break my rules about interviewing minors, not sorry for that one. However, if someone else interviews a minor in an unsolved case elsewhere or there is content posted where a minor was interviewed, that is allowed from other sources because I will cite that source in my podcast. I personally just do not conduct interviews with anybody under the age of majority also known as the age of 18 and up. 

    Thank you for reading such a long episode description for the podcast, a plethora of things had to be mentioned, sorry the description is so long, there's just a little more to read. 

    The only exception to the rule of me interviewing people under the age of 18 is if a professional or their family members record the types of questions that I would've asked that are relevant to the content. The people submitting the interview must be either the person's guardian or parent with rights to custody and the questions I will ask in an interview are posted on the site. The person submitting the interview must be 18 years of age or older and this includes the person or people involved with the interview. 

    What type of files do I accept: MP3s are the only file types that I accept for interviews. If you send me any other file type, that's fine as long as it's audio only and I will be converting it to an MP3 file anyways. My rules and regulations with specifics are case by case basis, but these rules are applicable as my golden standard and will not be broken by any means. 

    I send my empathy, loving and warm energy plus my condolences to anybody who has a family member who has had a crime committed against them, especially those who had a family member who was the victim of an unsolved case.

    Thank you again for reading the entire description of the trailer, sorry again for such a long description, have a great day/night wherever you are!
