• Who Killed the Sheriff Who Killed Billy the Kid?

  Las Cruces, New Mexico, newspapers reported on March 1, 1908: "Pat F. Garrett ... fulfilled his own prophecy ... that he would die with his boots on. Garrett was killed ... between 10 and 11 o'clock on the road to his Bear Canyon ranch at a point five miles from [Las Cruces]." Best known as a lawman and the guy who fatally shot Billy the Kid, Pat's life was high-profile. When it comes to his death, though, a lot of questions remain. Was it a conspiracy? Or was he shot in self-defense? People had thoughts about what happened – and still do. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

• The Mysterious Disappearance of Ambrose Bierce

  Ambrose Bierce was an American Civil War veteran, and he was also a writer: he was one of the most famous journalists of the late 19th century; he was a literary critic, a poet and a short story writer (primarily exploring themes of war, death, and the general absurdity that is life). And he is also one of the biggest disappearing acts of the 20th century. When he was 71 years old, Bierce rode into Mexico, and that's about the last anyone ever heard from him. Of course, there are plenty of theories about what happened.
