The Buzzard's Treasure? The Story of Olivier Levasseur (Episode #24)

It is estimated that Olivier Levasseur stole over £1 billion in today's value from raiding ships throughout the Caribbean, the coast of South America, and the Indian Ocean. Not to mention his biggest act of piracy would be used by Robert Louis Stevenson in his novel Treasure Island.  His successes granted him the title as one of the most successful pirates of his time. However, he was captured and hung in 1730 but his massive amount of treasure was never found. Legend says that before his execution, he threw his necklace with the cryptogram into the crowd and shouted "Find my treasure, the one who may understand it!"

What Else Did the Nazi's Hide in Lake Toplitz? (Episode #22)

In towns along the Totes Gebirge Mountain range, there were reports of a convoy of trucks guarded by SS troops traveling to a lake called Lake Toplitz in early 1945. However, no official records of what the SS troops were doing at the lake or what was in the convoy was ever found. Then, in 1959 investigators recovered £700 million of counterfeit notes that Hitler had planned on using to sabotage Britain's economy from the lake. While multiple expeditions to the lake have found evidence of other Nazi activity, nothing has been officially extracted due to the dangerous depths of the lake. What about those multiple murder victims found around the lake who had connections to the Nazi testing station located at Lake Toplitz? Also, the tunnels found along the lake shores? So what else did the Nazi’s hide in Lake Toplitz?

It is Finished? The Case of the Somerton Man (Episode #21)

On December 1, 1948, the body of an unidentified man was discovered on Somerton Beach near Adelaide, Australia. The man had no identification, and all labels were removed from his clothing. In a hidden pocket of his pants, a scrap of paper with the words “Tamám Shud” (meaning “ended” or “finished” in Persian) was found. The circumstances of his death, linked to theories like espionage or poison, persist as an unsolved mystery despite extensive investigations. So, who was the Somerton Man and how did he die?
