Accused of brutally murdering his wife, Dr. Richard Kimble, played by megastar Harrison Ford, is relentlessly pursued by the shrewd and witty U.S. Marshal Sam Gerard, played by Tommy Lee Jones.
This is the simple but engaging premise behind the 1993 blockbuster “The Fugitive.”
But what’s the story behind the making of this smash hit? That’s the question we track down in this episode– the first of a two-part feature on everyone’s favorite ‘wrongfully-accused’ film, “The Fugitive.”
On what true crime case was the original TV series “The Fugitive” allegedly based? How did the movie’s plot evolve as it moved through the various screenwriters who worked on it? What impact did Harrison Ford have on the film, and why was he initially reluctant to bring in Tommy Lee Jones? And just how much of the dialogue actually was improvised?
These are just a few of the topics we discuss in this fun behind-the-scenes episode that is anything but hinky!

This episode of Scandal Water contains adult themes and descriptions of violence. Listener discretion is advised. In last week’s episode you heard the tragic story behind the infamous Murder Mansion in Bowling Green, Kentucky.
We walked you through the shocking double-murder case that started with a confession from college student Harry Edward Kilgore, then took the first of many unexpected turns when an alleged accomplice–George Daggitt, a music professor from that same college– was named.
This week we have the privilege to speak with Wes Swietek, author of the book “The Cemetery Road Murders: The Shocking True Tale of Kentucky’s Murder Mansion.”
What happened to Harry Kilgore and George Daggitt after the final trial? What was the true story behind the alleged extortion scheme? Did the jury make the right decision regarding George Daggitt’s guilt? And what really happened that fateful night in June of 1948 when Charles and Martha Martin were brutally murdered in their own home?
We discuss all this and so much more in this lively interview with author Wes Swietek. So be sure to travel to Cemetery Road with us for this glimpse inside the notorious Murder Mansion.

This episode of Scandal Water contains adult themes and descriptions of violence. Listener discretion is advised.
Wednesday, June 30, 1948, Dr. Charles Martin and his wife Martha Martin were discovered in the bedroom of their palatial home in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The murder scene was so grisly, the police at first mistakenly believed the elderly couple had been attacked with an ax.
Within days the investigators had a full confession from college student Harry Edward Kilgore, and it seemed a matter of case closed… But they couldn’t have been more wrong.
This was just the beginning of the tragic double-murder case detailed in the book “The Cemetery Road Murders: The Shocking True Tale of Kentucky’s Murder Mansion” by Wes Swietek.
In this week’s episode we walk you through the twists and turns of this true crime case that would end up involving an insanity hearing, a possible love triangle, an extortion scheme, an alleged accomplice, and even more shocking developments.
You won’t want to miss this episode! Not only will you be drawn into the intriguing story behind the infamous Murder Mansion, but you’ll also be ready for our fascinating interview with author Wes Swietek that drops next Tuesday.

This episode of Scandal Water contains adult themes and descriptions of violence. Listener discretion is advised.
In March of 1987, an experienced coroner began a routine autopsy on 44-year-old John Powell, who’d spent months in Drake Memorial Hospital after being critically injured in a motorcycle accident. But when the coroner detected a subtle smell similar to that of burnt almonds, he suddenly realized Mr. Powell had not died of injuries related to the accident… he’d been murdered with cyanide. This discovery was only the first step in a chain of events that ultimately led to the capture of Donald Harvey, a serial killer who operated in three different hospitals in Kentucky and Ohio between 1970-1987. Dubbed the Angel of Death, Harvey was ultimately convicted of killing 37 people, although his actual murder count is believed to be higher. In this episode we discuss the events that transpired– and the people who risked their jobs–in order to end the Angel of Death’s horrific murder spree.

This episode of Scandal Water contains adult themes and descriptions of violence. Listener discretion is advised. It’s widely considered to be the longest and most infamous family feud in American history, providing the inspiration for everything from a popular game show to a Bugs Bunny cartoon and a Pigeon Forge dinner show.
But how much of what we believe to be true about the legendary Hatfield and McCoy family feud is actually myth– or even false impressions created by the media?
That’s just one of the many questions we explore in this fascinating episode.
Was it really the notorious hog incident that started the family feud? Were Johnse Hatfield and Roseanna McCoy truly the star-crossed lovers they’ve been made out to be, and if so, what happened with their romance? What exactly transpired during the brutal New Year’s Day Massacre? And just how accurate is the 2012 miniseries starring Kevin Costner and Bill Paxton?
Join us as we discuss all this and so much more! The show is also available on your favorite podcast app and the Scandal Water Podcast YouTube channel.

This episode of Scandal Water contains adult themes and descriptions of violence. Listener discretion is advised. On her very first day of summer vacation, June 1st of 1983, a bright 12-year-old girl with freckles and curly red hair said goodbye to a friend and rode off on her bike alone to travel the short remaining distance to her home. She never made it. To this day, the disappearance of Ann Gotlib, whose bike was found leaning against a pillar outside the Bashford Manor Shopping Center, remains Louisville’s oldest missing person’s case. And yet, police consider the case closed.This month we return to a focus on local true crime stories with the theme “In Our Own Backyard… Again.” And in this episode we walk through the perplexing case of Ann Gotlib’s kidnapping– a tragedy that not only touched an entire community, but also led to some of the important child protection services we have today.

Mamma Mia! It’s been 50 years since ABBA, clad in silver platform boots and bright outfits garnished with shiny sequins, won the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest, effectively catapulting the group toward international superstardom.
But at its core, ABBA was about two musically gifted couples who decided to combine their talents. So how did it affect this beloved rock band when several years later, as they were reveling in their success and ‘money, money, money,’ first one couple, and then the second, decided to split?
That’s one of the key questions we explore in this nostalgic and lively episode dedicated to one of the most enduring and beloved bands in music history, ABBA. And what better time to pay tribute to the group that created hits like “Fernando” and “Dancing Queen,” sparked a Broadway musical and two films, and in recent years became the subject of a virtual concert experience than on the occasion of this 50th anniversary?
No need to take a chance on this episode–it’s sure to entertain! The show is also available on your favorite podcast app and the Scandal Water Podcast YouTube channel. Special thanks to Lashaunda for her top-of-the-episode shout out!

Elizabeth Taylor is remembered for her legendary screen performances, dedicated activism related to the AIDS cause, and keen business sense.
But her accomplishments were sometimes overshadowed by the romantic entanglements of her personal life… relationships that earned her the title 'homewrecker' and at one point prompted the Pope to advocate Elizabeth’s children be taken away from her.
Our September theme is Breaking Up is Hard to Do, at our listeners’ request, and who better to highlight than Hollywood screen star Elizabeth Taylor, who made even breaking up look easy.
Join us as we trace Liz’s 8 marriages, including the scandalous affair with Richard Burton that the Pope denounced as “erotic vagrancy,” one relationship that ended due to abuse and another due to death, and the wedding that took place at Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch to a man 20 years younger.
