When Tony Hathaway was arrested outside a Seattle bank in February 2014, it brought an end to one of the most prolific bank robbery streaks in American history. Hathaway robbed 30 banks in a single year, all within a 30-mile radius of his suburban home. But that’s not the most surprising part of this story. Before Hathaway was a masterful bank robber—a shape-shifting professional who confounded multiple police departments and the FBI—he was a top design engineer at Boeing, one of America’s most important companies. Hathaway traveled the world in business class, working on the 747, while hiding a gigantic secret: an OxyContin addiction that ultimately unraveled his life. Based on three years of conversations between Hathaway and journalist Josh Dean, Hooked is a different kind of crime story that takes listeners on an exceptional and very personal tour of America’s opioid epidemic. New Episodes on Wednesdays. Hooked is an Apple Original podcast, produced by Campside Media. Listen and follow on Apple Podcasts.

Will Sharpe (The White Lotus) hosts a mind-bending real-life story of reincarnation and a spooky tale of family secrets. In 1950s England, milkman John Pollock makes a sensational prophecy: His dead daughters will be reborn. At first, even his own wife says he’s a crank. But then she gives birth to twin girls who have uncanny similarities to their sisters who died. Suddenly, the world sits up and takes notice. Pollock’s prophecy attracts the attention of a serious American scientist who crosses the Atlantic countless times to study the twins. And his conclusion is astonishing. So, what if death is only the beginning? Extrasensory goes in search of the two people who know the truth—the twins themselves. Extrasensory is an Apple Original podcast produced by Blanchard House.

I was captivated. What a terrifying, gripping, emotional, enlightening and incredible story. Highly recommended.
Good but tainted

Good story and well produced but the objectivity is questionable and despite the host being honest about that at the end, it does impact the way this story is told. Also the last recap episode is awful. Whoever is doing the interview just reads through a list of questions and gives vacuous answers and assessments. Feels more like the sort of rubbish corporate pods put out. I’d still recommend a listen but just don’t both with episode 10.
Hooked !
