[Crossover] Barefoot Bandit + The Knife Podcast

[Crossover] Barefoot Bandit + The Knife Podcast

Author: Moms and Mysteries Podcast July 31, 2025 Duration: 51:09
At 19 years old, Colton Harris-Moore became one of America's most wanted fugitives—and a folk hero to some. Dubbed the "Barefoot Bandit" because he often committed crimes without shoes, Colton stole cars, boats, and even airplanes during a two-year crime spree across the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Despite having no formal flight training, he taught himself to fly by reading manuals and playing video games, then stole multiple aircraft and flew them across state lines. His audacity and ability to evade capture captivated the public and spawned a cult following on social media. But when he was finally caught in the Bahamas in 2010, the reality of his crimes caught up with the legend. The Crossover: This week, we're joined by Patia and Hannah from The Knife podcast for a special crossover episode! After we tell the story of the Barefoot Bandit, they take over with their own compelling case. New episodes every Tuesday and Thursday!

Between school drop-offs and grocery runs, Mandy and Melissa found a shared obsession with the unanswered questions lurking in the shadows. Moms and Mysteries: A True Crime Podcast is the result: a conversation that feels like sitting at a kitchen table with two friends who are deeply curious about the human condition. Their perspective is uniquely grounded, examining each story not just for its shock value, but for the societal threads and personal tragedies that weave it together. You’ll hear them discuss everything from the strangely specific weirdness of a Florida crime to a globally known cold case, always with a blend of empathy and a dash of necessary, dark humor. This isn't a clinical report; it's a twice-weekly deep dive fueled by a lifelong fascination with mysteries, both big and small. The tone is warm, the research is thorough, and the conversation is the kind you get hooked on. New episodes of this true crime podcast arrive every Tuesday and Thursday, ready to be your companion during a commute or while folding laundry. They’ve been asking "how did this happen?" since they were kids, and now they’re pulling up a chair for you to join that ongoing, compelling discussion.
