The Tragic ”Bitter Blood” Murders

This episode of Scandal Water contains adult themes and descriptions of violence. It is not intended for all audiences. Listener discretion is advised. 
“This remains the most bizarre criminal case in American history. There is nothing to match this anywhere. You have all the elements: good families, money, bombs, shoot-outs.”
These are the words of Jerry Bledsoe, author of the book “Bitter Blood: A True Story of Southern Family Pride, Madness, and Multiple Murder,”  which then led to a 1994 made-for-TV miniseries called “In the Best of Families: Marriage, Pride, and Madness”  starring Kelly McGillis, Harry Hamlin, and Keith Carradine. 
The first tragedy occurred on Tuesday, July 24, 1984, when a friend discovered 68-year-old Delores Lynch lying on the driveway outside the door to her home. Upon arrival, the police also discovered Delores’s 39-year-old daughter Janie inside. Both women had died from gunshot wounds, and while the murder scene was staged to look like a burglary, it looked more like a professional hit. 
Before it was all said and done, 7 more would be dead and two families nearly destroyed.
Join us for this tragic, but fascinating true crime story that feels especially personal to Candy due to a theater connection. *A special thank you to Bill Baker for contributing insights via audio clips.

One of Kentucky’s Greatest Tragedies: The Beverly Hills Supper Club Fire

This episode of Scandal Water contains adult themes and descriptions of violence. It is not intended for all audiences. Listener discretion is advised. It’s the 3rd deadliest nightclub fire in US history and the reason you see a maximum capacity sign posted in every restaurant and bar you enter.
Yet many have never heard of the horrific fire that ravaged the Beverly Hills Supper Club in May of 1977, killing 165 people and injuring 200. 
Known as the “Showplace of the Midwest,” the opulent, sprawling facility located in Southgate, Kentucky, not only offered event space, but also boasted wildly popular Vegas-style performers and acts. 
The evening of May 28, 1977, approximately 1200 people crowded into the cabaret room to see the legendary performer John Davidson, never dreaming their night would end in a nightmare of flames and toxic fumes. Join us as we revisit not only the circumstances behind the tragic Beverly Hills Supper Club Fire, but also the impact it had on fire safety codes and the mystery that still lingers. #BeverlyHillsSupperClub #SupperClub #Nightclub #USHistory #Deadly #ShowplaceoftheMidwest #1970s #Vegas #Kentucky #TrueCrime #JohnDavidson #ScandalWaterPodcast #Podcast #TuesdayTea #History

Traveling the “Dark Highway”: An Interview with Author Ann D’Angelo

This episode of Scandal Water contains adult themes and descriptions of violence. It is not intended for all audiences. Listener discretion is advised. In last week’s episode, you heard the details behind the fascinating double-murder case involving Verna Garr Taylor and Henry Denhardt, former Kentucky Lieutenant Governor.

What insights did Ann glean from descendants of both Verna and Henry? What actually happened during that fateful day trip that ended with Verna lying in a ditch, dead from a gunshot? Did Henry really kill the woman at the center of the Seelbach’s “Lady in Blue” legend? Was Henry’s death an act of self-defense or murder? And what theory best explains the unsolved mystery of how Verna actually died?
We discuss all this and so much more in this lively interview with author Ann D’Angelo. So don’t miss your chance to travel the “Dark Highway” with the woman who spent 6 years researching these sensational murders. #DarkHighway #VernaGarTaylor #HenryDenhardt #GarrBrothers #Ann Dangelo #Interview #Law #TrueCrime #Podcast #Kentucky #KentuckyCrime #Crime #Mystery #Whodunnit #Murder #MurderMystery #ScandalWaterPodcast #TuesdayTea #Solved #History

This Episode, Should You Choose to Listen, Will Lead You to the 1996 Blockbuster ‘Mission: Impossible’

Just a few weeks ago “Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One” opened in theaters, boasting what has been described as “the biggest stunt in the history of cinema” and is noted by one film exec to be “far and away the most dangerous thing we’ve ever attempted.” The stunt occurs when the hero, Ethan Hunt, rides a motorcycle off a huge cliff, then jumps off the bike in mid-fall to pull a parachute and ultimately land safely. 
The “Mission: Impossible” franchise has come to be associated with death-defying stunts, non-stop action, impressive disguises, and an unstoppable action hero in Tom Cruise.
But your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to travel back with us to the 1996 blockbuster that started it all, the original “Mission: Impossible,” in which espionage still played as large a role as the action. 
In this lively episode, we take you behind the scenes of the hit film, discussing everything from the inspiration for the movie to the reactions of the cast members of the “Mission: Impossible” TV series, to the special effects used to create the famous train scene, to the one regret Tom Cruise shared with Emilio Estevez. 
So be sure to join the fun; it will leave you saying, “Mission ACCOMPLISHED!”MID-ROLL AD: Support Scandal Water by visiting Youtube.com or your favorite podcast app and hitting subscribe/follow! Music used (not Josh Martin) Gothamlicious purchased from FreePd.com#MissionImpossible #MissionBlockbuster #TomCruise #ActionMovie #Movie #Film #Blockbuster #EthanHunt #Stunts #Spy #Thriller #JonVoight #EmilioEstevez
