THE DYATLOV PASS INCIDENT (PART 2) :WHAT REALLY HAPPENED? BEST OF 1001 (#19 OF 460)

Idiom- A group of words established by usage as having a mean not deducible from those of the  individual words (e.g.  It's raing cats and Dogs!) There is one explicit idiom - Kick the Bucket- which follows "Laughing Stock"- it is not suitable for children- there is an audible warning before that piece begins. We hear uncommon or old expressions, many of them idioms, all the time in everyday language. Their origins can often be very interesting- so I wanted to share some of them with you. In this episode (in order): Making ends meet~Mind your own beeswax~Turn a blind eye~Caught red-handed~Gaslighting~Buckle down~Back to square one~Knock on wood~The laughing stock~Kick the bucket~You've stolen my thunder!~Break a leg~Pie in the sky~A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush~Let's paint the twon red~That will cost me an arm and a leg~The writings on the wall~He let the cat out of the bag~Don't look a gift horse in the mouth~Its raining cats and dogs.

Jean LaFitte was a French pirate who spent most of his active years in the Gulf. first attacking slave ships and then reselling the captured slaves, and later attacking merchant vessels and Spanish ships laden with treasure bound for Spain.

Caroline Alexander gives us the hard facts on Vinegar Joe Stillwell and his treatment of his special forces (Merrill's Marauders) then outlines the dangers of flying over the "Hump" as well as what we learned from the hard experience gained in the CBI Theater.

The mystery of the death of 9 university stidents taking part in an extended winter ski trek may never be solved. Was it a killer yeti? An avalanche? Sound waves?  Weapons testing?  We presnet the facts, including transcripts of interviews with investigators, and we present a reconstruction of events along with a theory that best matches those facts.  The rest is up to you.  Source fpr photographs and information: www.dyatlovpass.com

In April of 1942, the Imperial Japanese Army steamrolled through Burma (present day Myanmar), capturing the only ground route from India to China, thereby cutting off the Allies ability to supply needed arms and supplies to the resistance in China.  Supplies would now have to be flown in from India to China across the treacherous Himilayas- the most hazardous air route in the world.  Skies of Thunder is the story of epic human endeavor, one in which Allied troops faced the monumental challenges of operationg  from airfields hacked from the jungle and taking on "the hump", the fearsome mo9untain barrier that defined the air route.  Author Carolie Alexander gives us a riveting account of what Allied heroes faced in the CBI (China-Burma-India) theater in WWII. 

Part one of THE DYATLOV PASS INCIDENT: A COLD WAR TRAGEDY deals with one of the greatest unsolved wilderness mysteries known- the mysterious and violent deaths of 9 members of a Russian ski group in the Ural Mountain wilderness in February of 1959. In part one provide the background and explore the characters of the young men and women who died outside their tent in various stages of dress- lacking enough clothing to protect them in sub zero weather- all because they were forced by what looks like great fear to leave their tent at night with no time for preparation. Autopsies showed that many bore defensive bruises, and some had multiple broken ribs, eyeballs and tongues missing, and crushed skulls. Many showed radiation burns. Theories range from a killer yeti to fireballs to Russian KGB to a nuclear weapon. We'll present our theory in part two.   ANDROID USERS- 1001 Stories from Roy's Diner on Player.fm: Follow Us https://player.fm/series/1001-stories-network 1001 Radio Days right here at Google Podcasts FREE: https://podcasts.google.com/search/1001%20radio%20days 1001 Classic Short Stories & Tales at Google Podcasts https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vQURMNzU3MzM0Mjg0NQ== 1001 Heroes, Legends, Histories & Mysteries at Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/search/1001%20heroes 1001 Sherlock Holmes Stories (& Tales from Arthur Conan Doyle) https://podcasts.google.com/search/1001%20sherlock%20holmes 1001 Ghost Stories & Tales of the Macabre on Spotify: https://podcasts.google.com/search/1001%20ghost%20stories 1001 Stories for the Road on Google Podcasts https://podcasts.google.com/search/1001%20stories%20for%20the%20road Enjoy 1001 Greatest Love Stories on Google Podcasts https://podcasts.google.com/search/1001%20greatest%20love%20stories 1001 History's Best Storytellers: (author interviews) on Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/show/1001-historys-best-storytellers APPLE USERS 1001 Stories From Roy's Diner at Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/fi/podcast/1001-stories-from-roys-diner/id1594740377 Catch 1001 Heroes on any Apple Device here (Free): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-heroes-legends-histories-mysteries-podcast/id956154836?mt=2  Catch 1001 CLASSIC SHORT STORIES at Apple Podcast App Now: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-classic-short-stories-tales/id1078098622 Catch 1001 Stories for the Road at Apple Podcast now:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-stories-for-the-road/id1227478901 NEW Enjoy 1001 Greatest Love Stories on Apple Devices here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-greatest-love-stories/id1485751552 Catch 1001 RADIO DAYS now at Apple iTunes!  https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-radio-days/id1405045413?mt=2 NEW 1001 Ghost Stories & Tales of the Macabre is now playing at Apple Podcasts! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-ghost-stories-tales-of-the-macabre/id1516332327 NEW Enjoy 1001 History's Best Storytellers (Interviews) on Apple Devices here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-historys-best-storytellers/id1483649026 NEW Enjoy 1001 Sherlock Holmes Stories and The Best of Arthur Conan Doyle https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1001-sherlock-holmes-stories-best-sir-arthur-conan/id1534427618   Get all of our shows at one website: https://.1001storiespodcast.com REVIEWS NEEDED .
