Episode 20 - The Home of the Brave
Today's episode is the conclusion of the Fred Korematsu story. After losing his Supreme Court case in 1944, Fred went into a life of obscurity...until a conversation with a young girl in 1967 started Fred back on the journey to right the wrongs bestowed against him, and Japanese American people...and to stop America from making the same mistakes again.

Episode 1 of Dark Shadows - Why, FDR...WHY?
On this very first episode of Dark Shadows, Why FDR, WHY? We're taking a deep dive into what led Franklin Roosevelt to make the decision to intern an entire ethnic population of the USA, treated them like criminals, locked them up like animals, and removed their civil liberties. Yes, I’ll be tackling the internment of the Japanese Americans during world war two in the United States and just how and why a Government could turn on its’ own citizens in the supposed land of the free.
Are you ready for the deep dive?
Excellent...here we go...

Episode 19 - The Land of the Free?
Fred Korematsu was a law abiding, loyal citizen of the United States. He held no criminal record and loved his homeland so much so, that he wanted to don a uniform to defend her. So, why then did his country turn on him and treat him like a criminal? Convicting him, incarcerating him, interring him, and leaving him with a criminal record? Fred would spend a lifetime trying to defend the injustice bestowed against him, and the thousands of others in his position.

Episode 18 - The Pendulum Swings
Today's story is something very different to the norm, and as of 24 hours ago, completely unplanned. The episode that should have aired today hit a curve ball at the 11th hour, and so, not wanting to disappoint, I have put today's episode together instead. Like I said, it's very different to my normal episodes, but I do hope that you enjoy it...

Episode 17 - A Cry for Help
In June 2016, 20-year-old Michael Sandford from sleepy, rural Dorking, Surrey, UK had made an epic journey of over 5000 miles in total, on a mission. Michael was known for how polite, articulate, kind, compassionate, and sweet he was. So, how did this sweet young man go on to almost change the course of history with an attempted crime that aimed to murder one of the most influential people in the Western World?

Customer Reviews
I love this podcast and podcaster
SuZe is great. Not only does she relate terribly disturbing true crime stories in a direct, yet sensitive way, but her sense of humor shines through in a very enjoyable way.
AWSOME Suze
I am a huge true crime fan!! But the way Suze tells stories and brings information of how laws have been changed or started is such an amazing way of looking at the stories differently. So thank you for what you do, not just entertainment but educational !!
Huge Fan from Austin, Texas
Natasha
SuZe’s Voice will hypnotize
I just love SuZe’s sensuous voice, her articulate annunciation and her British accent. I could listen to her even if she was reading Webster dictionary.
This is now my favorite podcast. It’s full of facts of past tragedies which are presented by SuZe in a first person type narrative that make the listener feel like they are in the story.
