Larry Fine, Charles Manson and Angela Lansbury - The Year Is 1970

It's a well researched episode by Bobby this week, as 1970 has piqued his attention. Bobby shares his love with us for the comedy trio The Stooges, when Larry Fine suffered a debilitating career ending stroke, we get a taste of Bobby's Spotify playlist featuring forgotten folk musician Charles Manson, Make America Great Again founder Donald Trump's third wife Melania is born, drilling on the Kola Superdeep Borehole begins in Russia, a man eating tiger kills 48 people in New Delhi, India, and Japanese geisha and sex worker Sada Abe dissappears after murdering and dismembering her lover.
