Hello and welcome to episode 45 of The High Strangeness podcast. In this episode Gav and I will be looking at cases of Family Annihilation, where one family member has taken the lives of their nearest and dearest. We'll also look at some of the reasons these people flip off and decide that chopping off their branch of the family tree is a viable option. Join us as we discuss John List, Ronnie DeFeo of the Amityville murders, James Ruppert and Ronald Gene Simmons.

The story of Jack Daniel and Nathan "Uncle Nearest" Green could have been something much different - but in the hands of Fawn Weaver, she looked past headlines and social media to find the story behind the story.

And her findings have led her to build a foundation in Nearest's name, a distillery in his honor, and it also brought her and the Jack Daniel's Distillery together to create an initiative that will help change the whiskey industry going forward.

In 2016, Best Selling Author Fawn Weaver was in Singapore with her movie executive husband, when a New York Times International article caught her attention. Was it possible that in an industry known for its Scots-Irish roots, actually had its biggest selling whisky taught to its founder by a slave? But the accompanying photo told a different story. And what Fawn uncovered, changed her life.

We love our first couple of episodes (including this one) as they showcase where we were and how far we've come, but we were still trying to figure things out. So, before you check this one out, we recommend listening to a recent episode first. Don't worry, this one will be waiting for you when you get back. Cheers!
