With Lynn Peril
Were there more kidnappings and disappearances than usual in 1966, or am I just attracted to those stories? If it’s the latter, what does that say about me? Perhaps it’s an easy answer: If I fall down a rabbit hole to find out what happened next, maybe listeners will be intrigued as well. The story of Max and Edith Fisher is a wild one, involving arson, a likely murder, and a faked suicide. Also in the news this week, a Merry Prankster gets married and a teen critic harshly reviews the Rolling Stones show at the Cow Palace–on Mick’s 23rd birthday, no less!
