Two woman in Nazi-occupied Paris, bith close friends over 50 years old create a daring escape line that rescued dozens of allied servicemen . With one still in prison,  one was returned to the states on a prisoner swap and wrote a tell-all book which the publishers added to to boost sales, and the one in prison was "re"-discovered and treated mercilessly. The story is a gripping qaccount of courage and fortitude, and sheds an intense light on the terror of fascist regimes.
  1001 interviews author and veteran Mark Hager regarding his new book 'The Last of the 357th Infantry Harold Frank's WWII Story of Faith & Courage- which is an incredible story of a WWII veteran who participated in the Normandy invasion as a BAR man, was wounded after 30 days on non-stop fighting during which most of his division was killed or wounded, and survived a German prison camp.. His survival is credited to the lessons he learned during the depression in North Carolina and his faith in God and family.  APPLE USERS Catch 1001 Heroes on any Apple Device here (Free): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-heroes-legends-histories-mysteries-podcast/id956154836?mt=2  Catch 1001 CLASSIC SHORT STORIES at Apple Podcast App Now: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-classic-short-stories-tales/id1078098622 Catch 1001 Stories for the Road at Apple Podcast now:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-stories-for-the-road/id1227478901 NEW Enjoy 1001 Stories From The Gilded Age on Apple Devices here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-greatest-love-stories/id1485751552 Catch 1001 RADIO DAYS now at Apple iTunes!  https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-radio-days/id1405045413?mt=2 NEW 1001 Ghost Stories & Tales of the Macabre is now playing at Apple Podcasts! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-ghost-stories-tales-of-the-macabre/id1516332327 NEW Enjoy 1001 History's Best Storytellers (Interviews) on Apple Devices here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-historys-best-storytellers/id1483649026 NEW Enjoy 1001 Sherlock Holmes Stories and The Best of Arthur Conan Doyle https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-sherlock-holmes-stories-best-sir-arthur-conan/id1534427618   Get all of our shows at one website:  WWW.BESTOF1001STORIES.COM  REVIEWS NEEDED .

We look into the mystery of how the shroud could have gone missing for 1200 years after Christ's death and try to solve the puzzle of its authenticity, Was it just a hoax created in the 14th century?Or was it kept safe and hidden by believers who feared it would be destroyed if discovered? And we explore one theory that it may have been kept safe in England by the Knights Templar- the secretive organization of honorable knights who fought hard in battle but lost it all in the game of "Kings" in 1307.

In 1898, a young attorney in Italy who was also an amateur photographer was given permission to be the first person allowed to photograph the burial cloth that was said to be the one that covered Jesus's body when Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus prepared him for burial. It had been in possession of that church in Turin Italy for hundreds of years and was considered sacred. The photographer, Pia Secondo,and two men of the church were busy developing the pictures of the shroud, which was 14 feet long, and carried the very faint image of a man lying on his back.that was said to have been Jesus. Pia was holding the negative plate in his hand, and as he looked at it he drew back in shock, almost dropping it. The face and body of the man in the negative were now visible in stunning detail . Pia Secondo was looking at what he believed to be the face of his lord and savior, Jesus Christ. Join us for the incredible story of the Shroud of Turin.

The Battle of Guadalcanal-an air, land, and sea battle fought in the Pacific between August 7th and February 9th of 1942, was the first major offensive of WWII that tested American land forces vs. the Japanaese Imperial Army. It was a hard, brutal conflict for the 15,000 US Marines and 20,000 Japanese that were sent there, fought in an unforgiving climate of hot jungle, crocodile-infested rivers, and coral ridges- all teeming with malaria-carrying mosquitos and the stench of death. The men who fought there deserve to be remembered.

When Berlin fell in April-May of 1945 under the Russian onslaught, Adolph Hitler and his new bride Eva Braun, as the story went for years, committed double suicide- he by a gunshot to his head, and she by cyanide. The story continued that their bodies were carried outside of their bunker and set ablaze by their personal guards. For years the Russians kept the whereabouts of their corpses a secret, and conspiracy theories abounded. Some said they had escaped by plane or submarine to South America, Others said that Hitler's body double, not Hitler, was the body that had been burned. Author Robert Hutchinson with his new book The Death of Hitler, examines the evidence and delivers the true story of what happened to Hitler and Braun as well as the stories of the attempted assassinations of Hitler which came very close to ending his life and his atrocities, had it not been for what many call "the luck of the devil".   Get all of our shows at one website: www.bestof1001stories.com REVIEWS are now EASY!

Just before that game, which would have clinched it for them, a local bar owner bought a ticket for himself and his pet goat only to discover that the goat, which he had brought for good luck, wasn't allowed. He demanded to talk to the owner, PJ Wrigley, who told him he could come in but the goat could not. Why, asked the owner. because your goat stinks! was the answer. According to legend, the bar owner put a curse on the team , saying they would never win another series as long as he lived. And the curse lasted until 2016, despite all kinds of efforts to break it. This is the story. Voice of Cubs legendary announcer Harry Caray at end. Get all of our shows at one website: WWW.BESTOF1001STORIES.COM  REVIEWS NEEDED .

A four year-old boy in Oklahoma begins telling his mom all about his other life- that he had had four wives, three brothers and two sisters, and had lived in a big home with a pool, and literally hundreds of other details. He did not know his prior name- but he knew that he was in a movie and had danced on Broadway- so he and his mom began visiting the library looking for old hollywood books with pictures.  They finally found his picture- but he was an extra in a 30's movie and in the book the extras were not identified.  By this time hiis mom wrote to the University of Virginia to see if they could get some help from the past lives researchers there- and from that point on the story grows. Its an incredible story of reincarnation which has been proved beyond any doubt.  For access to ten years of 1001 stories visit us at www.bestof1001stories.com.

Soon after, he and Lulu were killed in a hit ordered by Lucky Luciano. But a police stenographer was with Dutch as he was dying, and his last words sounded pretty convincing.

On Jan 2, 1932, in a rural area in southwest Missouri, 6 lawmen were shot and killed and two wounded in a shootout as a groupof 11 sheriffs and deputies surrounded a farmhouse in which two or three well-armed fugitives were holedup. They were brothers named Harry and Jennings, and possibly Paul, and they were wanted- Harry for murder of a lawman, the others for operating a multi-state auto theft ring.  Just about every rule in modern policing was broken- but this was 1932, it was a rural area, and police forces were basically just peacekeepers in farm towns in those days. They had lots of courage but little training. Inside the house were two brothers who had won area shooting contests for years, they had been in prison, and did not want to go back,  Check out all 12 1001 podcasts at www.bestof1001stories.comand catch our latest podcasts 1001 True Crime From Another Time and 1001 Stories From The Gilded Age.

"Close Encounters of the Third Kind: The Incredible Story That Inspired the Spielberg Movie", tells of Project Serpo, a top-secret U.S. government program that arranged an exchange program with aliens that sent 12 astronauts to a planet 40 light years away with hopes of gaining insight to another civilization and their technologies. Inspired largely by a well-known physicist named Dr. Hynek, who had been the head of the classified "UFO Project Blue Book", and was hired by Speilberg and Columbia Pictures to advise the production of the 1977 film "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", certain story lines and scenes, such as the one showing 12 astronauts boarding an alien craft near the end of the picture, are said to have been very close to reality.

By Christmas of 1914 the war in Europe had been raging for 5 months. A 500 mile long line of trenches stretched from the North Sea, France and Belgium to the Swiss border- the trenches sometimes as close as 100 feet apart. Here we share a number of documented stories of moments of truce beginning on Christmas Eve- when men from opposing armies met in the no man's land between the trenches to exchange tobacco, buttons, and even handshakes before returning to their posts. In some places along the front, men played football (soccer) using whatever was available.   Get all of our shows at one website:  www.bestof1001atories.com    for comments: 1001storiespodcast@gmail.com SUPPORT OUR SHOW BY BECOMING A PATRON! https://.patreon.com/1001storiesnetwork. Its time I started asking for support!

"the Mysterious Death of Edgar Allen Poe"-On September 7, 1849, Edgar Allen Poe, at the top of his career, kissed his fiance goodbye at his home in Richmond, VA, and began a business trip to Philadelphia. He then dropped out of sight for a week, he was found in Baltimore on October 3rd, inside a bar-turned-polling place, drunk and disheveled, wearing clothes that did not fit him, and unable to speak clearly. He was rushed to a hospital, where he lingered on the edge of insanity for nearly one week,before dying. Theories as to the cause of his death have abounded for decades. His doctor had ordered him not to drink, fearing that a lesion close to his brain could lead to his death. Others suggested he was forced to drink alcohol at the polling place and was a victim of "cooping", by which innocent bystanders were grabbed off the street and forced to drink, then vote multiple times. Still others suspect a variety of causes, from murder to rabies. Even more mysterious is the fact that until recently, and for 80 years, a cloaked man was seen visiting the original grave of Poe every year on the same date, where he would leave three roses and a half drunk bottle of cognac behind. Will he come back next year?   Credits: Monica Gil performs Annabel Lee (YouTube) Christopher Lee performs "The Raven" WBAL-TV Baltimore  News Report on "the Poe Toaster"   Learn more about your ad choices.

So wrong about Hitler & Germany. The man was ahead of his time. The Jews have enslaved the World with debt via the Zionist movement. In Hitler's Germany, there was no debt, no smoking, highest wages in the World, almost everyone owned a home and a car, people's house payments were 1/8 of their monthly income, people had savings for retirements, the elderly were respected and cared for, as well as veterans. Germans weren't forced to love Hitler, they loved him because he showed them the freedom, the love they deserved, and he fulfilled all his promises to his Country. Hitler banned smoking!! A true Patriot. He saw what the Jews were doing to his nation. drugs, homosexuality, laziness, Communism pushing and trying to force their DEBT banking system upon the people of Germany. The first 2 nations to join Hitler & Germany were from the Middle East and Africa!! Look it up! Hitler loved all people and treated them all the same. He wanted what was best for his people and all of Europe. And th

This is a great podcast. I find myself continuously listening to each episode as I work at my job through the nights. Every one is greatly informative and entertaining to hear. The wonderful host, Jon Hagedorn fills each tale with enthusiasm and an obvious interest and love for each story he crafts for us. I just finished the inspiring 3 part story about the life story of Eugene Bullard. What a fantastic life he lived!! 5 star channel!! Absolutely!! Jump aboard and tell your friends about this channel! They'll thank you!!

I'm not sure if you're ever seen it but there is a GREAT french film that kind of tells this story. It is called "The Brotherhood Of The Wolf" and came out the same year as Gladiator and Crouching Tiger. In my opinion, it was the best film of the year and should have won the oscar for it. I recommend watching the Director's Cut of the film. Atmospheric and Scary, It is simply fantastic and one of my favorite films. Highly recommended!!!

Generally I really love this podcast but this episode was really heavy on the eurocentrism. Having worked as an archeologist in Arizona as well as having deep roots in the state form this opinion. Arizona has archeological evidence of complex civilizations with large scale architecture and vast trade networks beginning in at least 900ad. These communities are found across the entire state. In general Arizona is a poor state. There is not money for large scale excavations that are not mandated by HIPA (laws governing cultural resources on public lands) due to construction, generally roadwork. Furthermore, many sites are protected as native sacred sites and therefore it would inappropriate, disrespectful and illegal to excavate those sites. These laws exist to protect Native cultural resources from further pillage by mostly the descendants of their colonizers. Fun fact: Arizona is home to 5 of the 10 largest reservations in the US.

Review: 5 Stars: A superb family of podcasts, made with real passion for storytelling. The 1001 podcasts have recently become firm favourites of mine. The material used has a wide range and is of consistently high quality. There really is something to interest everyone. The storytelling and narration are excellent, leaning away from over-production and from over-editorialising and instead keeping things pared down and simple, reading the story off the page with a relaxed, engaging tone. The words are allowed room to breath and as a result the authors and the stories can speak for themselves. This enriches the listening experience and it's an approach I have grown to enjoy enormously. I would heartily recommend these podcasts to anyone who likes a good story told well. Anyone looking for a good place to start: 1001 Classic Short Stories and Tales episode... The Wendigo. It's a great story and to my mind Mr Hagadorn captures the suspense and the atmosphere of the wilderness perfectly. PS

This is the ULTIMATE PODCAST for those of us who enjoy history, legends, and factual stories that have been lost through the years. Episode 61 is the best one in my opinion. You make it unambiguously easy for everyone as well as keeping me interested like a book you can’t put down!!! Great commentating as well!!!
