    CONNIE CONVERSE – THE WOMAN WHO WALKED AWAY FROM MUSIC

    The Vanishing Act: Connie Converse – The Woman Who Walked Away From Music In the early 1950s, Connie Converse made introspective, poetic music in her New York apartment—a decade before Bob Dylan, before anyone called it "singer-songwriter" music. Almost no one heard it. By 1961, exhausted and ignored, she gave up music and moved to Michigan. She became an academic editor, a political activist, a brilliant mind in a world that had missed her art. In August 1974, one week after her 50th birthday, she wrote letters to her family saying she needed to start over. She packed her Volkswagen Beetle and drove away. She has not been seen since. In this 106-minute investigation, Paul Stiling examines the life and disappearance of a woman who was ahead of her time—and asks whether we have the right to rediscover someone who explicitly asked to be forgotten. Part 3 of 6 in The Vanishing Act series. Dead Drop: Investigative storytelling. No filler. No fiction.

    The Vanishing Act: Jim Sullivan – The Highway, The Motel, The Desert

    In 1969, Jim Sullivan recorded U.F.O.—an album full of songs about highways, deserts, and disappearing. In March 1975, he drove from Los Angeles to Nashville to restart his career. He made it as far as New Mexico. After being pulled over by police and checking into a motel in Santa Rosa, Sullivan bought a bottle of vodka and drove into the desert. The next day, he was seen at a remote ranch 26 miles south of town. Hours later, his car was found abandoned—guitar, belongings, and $1,400 in cash still inside. He was never seen again. In this 102-minute investigation, Paul Stiling retraces Sullivan's final journey through the New Mexico desert and examines whether his music predicted his own vanishing—or revealed a mind already disappearing. Part 2 of 6 in The Vanishing Act series. Dead Drop: Investigative storytelling. No filler. No fiction.

    Last Orders – The Slow Death of Britain's Grassroots Music Venues

    The small rooms where Amy Winehouse, Coldplay, The Killers, and Florence and the Machine got their start are disappearing. Not in some dramatic collapse – just quietly closing, one by one. In this episode of Dead Drop, host Paul Stiling breaks down the slow erosion of the UK's grassroots music venues. These aren't stadiums or arenas – they're the 200-capacity rooms with sticky floors and questionable toilets where every major British artist you love once played to seventeen people on a Tuesday night. We explore: Why hundreds of venues have closed over the past fifteen yearsThe economic pressures crushing small music spaces – from skyrocketing rent to brutal business ratesHow the "Agent of Change" principle works (and often doesn't)The devastating impact of COVID-19 on an already fragile ecosystemWhat we lose culturally and economically when these venues disappearThis isn't just about buildings. It's about musicians who rely on these spaces to develop their craft, venue owners who've remortgaged their homes to keep the doors open, and communities that form around live music. Paul makes it clear: this situation is precarious, but it's not hopeless. Change is possible – if we're willing to fight for it. Support your local venue. Buy a ticket. Buy a drink. Make some noise. Dead Drop is a podcast exploring the issues that shape our cultural landscape. #GrassrootsMusic #LiveMusic #UKMusic #MusicVenues #IndependentVenues #MusicIndustry #SupportLocalMusic #DeadDrop #Podcast #CulturalHeritage

  8. The Peter Boland Case - New Zealand's Forgotten Child

    The Peter Boland Case - New Zealand's Forgotten Child

    In August 1957, nine-year-old Peter Boland vanished without a trace from a remote farm in New Zealand's Waioeka Gorge. Four men were with him when he disappeared—but their stories don't match. An extensive search involving 150 volunteers found nothing. No body. No clothing. Not even a footprint. But here's the shocking part: police never investigated. No file was created. No statements were taken. For sixty years, it was as if Peter never existed. What happened on that winter morning? Was it a tragic accident in the unforgiving New Zealand bush? Or was something more sinister at play? Why did the four witnesses give conflicting accounts? And why did authorities simply look the other way? In this 90-minute deep dive, Dead Drop host Paul Stiling uncovers one of New Zealand's oldest and most baffling cold cases. We examine: The conflicting testimonies of the four men who were thereThe family's six-decade fight for answersThe 2018 police investigation that came 60 years too lateFour evidence-based theories about what really happenedThe coroner's 2023 findings and what they meanThis is a story about institutional failure, a family's unimaginable grief, and the questions that refuse to die. Peter Boland deserves to be remembered. His story deserves to be told. ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode discusses the disappearance of a child and contains themes that some listeners may find distressing.
