We kick off the Halloween season with the ongoing story of America's oldest missing teens case. Bonnie Bickwit and Mitchel Weiser packed up and headed for the iconic Summer Jam concert in Upstate New York in July 1973. The pair of high school sweethearts never made it. The case was mishandled from the start and sadly went cold. Now fifty years after they were last seen alive their story is back in the public eye thanks to a Rolling Stone article by Eric Greenberg.
Thirty years ago Cape Cod was a different place. There were many iconic businesses that had dotted the peninsula for decades. Strangely within a period of a few years many of them disappeared. What happened that caused this shift? We will look at Cape Cod's changing of the guard of the early to mid-1990s.
Public Service Announcement commercials and short films were a staple of growing up in the 1960s through the 1980s. They taught children some valuable lessons using fun and colorful characters. One such character was Snuffy the Talking Fire Engine. This week we go way Back In the Day to look at the snapshot of the 70s that was Snuffy's Fire Safety Brigade.
There's a brand new Top 5, continuing to look at New England states' weird laws. This week we travel to New Hampshire to see what head-scratching laws were enacted in the state's history. Cows wearing diapers anyone?
As always there will be a new This Week In History and Time Capsule centered around Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution.
