Journalist Lucy Sherriff dives into a tangled web of manipulation, power, estranged families, and greed in new true-crime series

Listen to it all unfold now, HERE

IDYLLWILD, Calif. and NEW YORK – July 23, 2024 – Lydia “Dia” Abrams was known in the beautiful mountain town of Idyllwild, California as a glamorous 65-year-old, who, from the outside looking in, seemed to have it all. That is, until she disappeared without a trace on June 6, 2020. In “Where’s Dia?,” an exclusive new six-part podcast series from Pushkin Industries and iHeartPodcasts, journalist Lucy Sherriff reveals the culmination of her four year investigation into Dia’s disappearance, uncovering a tangled web of manipulation, power, estranged families, and greed. “Where’s Dia?” will be available to listeners beginning today, July 23, 2024, with new episodes posting on Tuesdays.

“When someone goes missing, they leave a vacuum. And everyone left behind scrambles to fill that space with reasons why or explanations of how,” says Sherriff. “When Dia went missing, she didn’t get to tell her own story. Her narrative has been crafted by friends, family, lovers – and yes, even enemies. And it’s left to us to decide whose version of events we believe.”

In the days after Dia disappeared, her friends, her neighbors, and her kids began to search for her. They ran through endless theories: was she lying hurt somewhere? Had she run away? Had she been kidnapped? Killed? 

It didn’t take long for some to start pointing fingers. Because, it turns out, there were people who could benefit if Dia suddenly disappeared — her estate was worth millions of dollars.

Two men in her life, her son and a man who claims to be her fiance, launch public campaigns to find Dia. But soon, their efforts – and stories – begin to unravel.

“Where’s Dia?” is produced by Pushkin Industries and distributed by iHeartPodcasts. Listeners will find “Where’s Dia?” on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are available. Pushkin+ subscribers can binge the entire season early and ad-free.

The new eight-part series explores the strangest story in rock and roll history

Today, iHeartPodasts, Talkhouse and Nevermind Media launched "The True Story of the Fake Zombies," a new outrageous, music-meets-true crime epic that explores an unbelievable music industry scam that went untold for decades. 

Throughout the historiographic 8-episode weekly series, Host Daniel Ralston dives deep into the tale of how, in 1969, a music promotion company in a tiny Michigan town sent out not one but two bands onto the road to pretend to be The Zombies, the recently disbanded British Invasion band who had just had a huge hit with their song “Time of the Season.” Fake band members included Frank Beard and Dusty Hill, who would go on to become legendary figures in their next band, ZZ Top! 

Ralston, who discovered this stranger-than-fiction con a decade ago, dives deep into every aspect of this 55-year-old rock n’ roll mystery, uncovering the secret history of the shady managers who concocted the scheme, the hapless young musicians who were recruited for the scam, the unlikely town where the whole thing was cooked up, the impact of the scheme on the real Zombies (whose iconic music features throughout the show), and much more. 

Ralston shares, “55 years ago, four guys from Texas toured North America pretending to be the British Psychedelic rock band The Zombies. Two of those incredibly talented young men ended up in ZZ Top. Eight years ago, I wrote a story that uncovered the names and faces behind the Texas Zombies. I am incredibly excited to take the story further. The True Story of The Fake Zombies traces the origins of the Texas band back to Bay City, Michigan, where two audacious managers put the whole thing together. This podcast was made possible by the local historians, legendary music writers and musical heroes who agreed to help tell the story of this truly wild rock and roll con. We are incredibly honored to have The Zombies voices and music included in the podcast.” 

“The True Story of the Fake Zombies” is a production of iHeartMedia, Nevermind Media and Talkhouse. New episodes will be available every Thursday on the iHeartRadio app and wherever podcasts are heard. 

“The True Story of the Fake Zombies” is distributed by iHeartPodcasts.

The eight-part series launches July 18, 2024

Listen to the official trailer HERE

LOS ANGELES and ATLANTA – July 11, 2024 – School of Humans and iHeartPodcasts, the No. 1 podcast publisher globally according to Podtrac, today announced “Tom Slick: Mystery Hunter” – an action-packed series that will take listeners on a thrilling ride – based on the untold, mostly true tale of explorer, scientific legend and alleged spy, Tom Slick, the most interesting man you’ve never heard of.

This eight-episode series will chronicle the larger than life adventures of Tom Slick (Owen Wilson) in his steadfast pursuit of the unknown, culminating to his greatest and most mystifying expedition: his 1958 hunt for the Yeti.

Tom Slick’s epic story will be told through hidden tapes found by his granddaughter, Liv Slick, (Schuyler Fisk) buried in her mother, Claire Slick’s (Sissy Spacek) attic. As they listen together, they will uncover unbelievable stories inspired by actual events from Tom Slick’s life, which include the kidnapping of his stepfather by the infamous bank robber Machine Gun Kelly, a covert OSS operation (predecessor to the CIA) to stop a Nazi spy ring in Latin America, and his relentless hunt for the elusive Yeti.

What is a climactic tale of a legendary man is also, for Liv, the discovery of a grandfather whose life was largely shrouded in mystery… until now.

“Tom Slick: Mystery Hunter” is told through the dynamic, fast-paced writing of Jeb Stuart (Die Hard, Vikings: Valhalla) and Caroline Slaughter (Astray, LAMB). Slaughter also directed and cast the podcast, with production support from producer and assistant director, Emilia Brock (Sanctum Unmasked, Let’s Start a Coup!). The podcast’s rich, immersive soundscape and score were crafted by sound designer and composer, Jesse Nighswonger (Unreformed, Queen Havoc).

“Tom Slick: Mystery Hunter” debuts today, Thursday, July 18th, 2024, and will be available on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard. “Tom Slick: Mystery Hunter” is distributed by iHeartPodcasts.

FACTS BEHIND THE SERIES

DISCLAIMER: This podcast is based on the true story of explorer, inventor, visionary and science pioneer, Tom Slick. Some of the story elements, names and characters have been altered for dramatic purposes.

Still, many of the overarching story elements are based on real life. Below, are some examples:

• In 1933 Tom Slick’s stepfather, Charles Urschel, was viciously abducted at gunpoint in front of his family by Machine Gun Kelly. When Urschel was eventually rescued by Hoover’s FBI, the trial became one of the most highly publicized in history and put the infamous bank robber behind bars.
• During WWII Nazi spy networks operated throughout South America. Tom Slick joined the War Department in 1941 and was assigned to Chile, though it’s shrouded in mystery what he was doing there. Classified documents are slowly being released by the government about that time. It was a rumor among family that he was involved in covert operations.
• Tom Slick embarked on multiple Yeti hunts in the Himalayas, but his most publicized is a 1958 expedition that led to his cohort, Peter Byrne (‘BUD’ in the podcast), stealing the thumb off a sacred Yeti Paw hidden in the Pangboche Monastery. The finger made its way to London hidden in a film canister in the actor Jimmy Stewart’s suitcase.

About Owen Wilson

Owen Wilson is one of contemporary cinema’s most successful actors, having earned great acclaim for his memorable turns in mainstream and independent films.

Most recently Wilson starred in both seasons of the critically acclaimed hit series Loki on Disney+. Additionally, he starred opposite an ensemble of talent including Jamie Lee Curtis, LaKeith Stanfield and Tiffany Haddish in Disney’s Haunted Mansion. In Paint Wilson plays Carl Nargle, a beloved veteran painter who teaches the craft on a local public television show.

the smash hit comedy Wedding Crashers; the romantic comedy You, Me And Dupree; and as the voice of Lightning McQueen in Disney’s Cars, Cars 2, and Cars 3. 

Wilson has collaborated with director Wes Anderson eight times, including the Academy Award® nominated The Grand Budapest Hotel; The Darjeeling Limited; The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou; The Royal Tenenbaums, for which he and Anderson were nominated for an Academy Award® and BAFTA for Best Original Screenplay; Rushmore, which Wilson co-wrote and co-executive produced; and Bottle Rocket, which Wilson starred in and co-wrote.
