  • 393: The Man Who Shot J.P. Morgan w/ Mary Noé

    393: The Man Who Shot J.P. Morgan w/ Mary Noé
    Jun 9 2025
    On the morning of July 3, 1915, John Pierpont Morgan Jr., one of the most famous names in finance, was entertaining guests at his sprawling Long Island estate when the doorbell unexpectedly rang. An armed man forced his way inside. At the same time, authorities in Washington, DC, were investigating a shocking bombing at the US Capitol. While no one had been killed, the blast had destroyed the reception room, and DC citizens were on edge. Nine years earlier, in 1906, Leone Krembs Muenter had fallen ill and died shortly after giving birth. Her husband, Harvard professor Erich Muenter, blamed his wife’s Christian Science religious beliefs, which prohibited medical intervention, for the death, but an investigation suggested something more sinister: arsenic poisoning. As suspicions mounted, Muenter vanished. Joining me is Mary Noé, author of "The Man Who Shot J. P. Morgan: A Life of Arsenic, Anarchy, and Intrigue". She tells the remarkable tale of a deceptive Harvard professor who reemerges with a new name and family —and a dangerous loyalty to Germany during World War I.

  • 392: Golden Age Pirate George Lowther w/ Craig Chapman

    392: Golden Age Pirate George Lowther w/ Craig Chapman
    Jun 2 2025
    George Lowther was a mutineer and a pirate, one of the most prolific during the golden age of piracy. His first mate, Edward "Ned" Low, went on to establish himself as perhaps the most sadistic and depraved of all pirate captains. Virtually all popular sources specify Lowther's death being by suicide in 1723, while marooned on the small island of Blanquilla, off the coast of Venezuela. While researching the War of Jenkins' Ear, historian Craig Chapman found repeated references to "Lowther the Pirate" in primary source material. This Lowther was pardoned and commissioned as a Royal Navy lieutenant in 1741. Further research revealed that this was indeed George Lowther, and therefore, that the date and place of his death had been reported erroneously. Military historian and author Craig Chapman shares the story of how Lowther became a pirate, some of his most notable and notorious actions, and his astonishing resurfacing years after his purported death. His book is called "The Resurrected Pirate: The Life, Death, and Subsequent Career of the Notorious George Lowther".

  • MoNo Encore: The Murder of Kitty Genovese w/ Catherine Pelonero

    MoNo Encore: The Murder of Kitty Genovese w/ Catherine Pelonero
    May 29 2025
    (Original pub. date: 9/27/2018) Catherine Pelonero, author of "Kitty Genovese: A True Account of a Public Murder and its Private Consequences", is my guest. She walks us through the murder of Kitty Genovese in Kew Gardens, New York in 1964 and its aftermath. The horrific crime is especially infamous because no one called police or stepped in to help, despite being witnessed by dozens of people. Note: I normally post a link to an author's website, but a listener just notified me that Catherine's no longer exists. Her Wikipedia page hasn't been updated yet with news of her passing, but here is the link to that page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catherine_Pelonero Hungry? Support the show here!

This podcast is really intriguing! The book authors have done the research and writing to bring these stories to light while Erik asks compelling questions that we all wish we could ask if we had the opportunity. Everyone's story is important and this podcast makes that a central focus.

I’ve listened to other podcasts but always came back to this one. Most Notorious is now the only true crime podcast I listen to! The host is very thorough in both his research & well asked questions, questions that us, the listeners all want to know. I very highly recommend!!

I’ve been a fan for years

Hands down, this is my favorite podcaster. No talking about dogs, beer or anything frivolous. Just getting down to business with experts and authors who have spent vasts amounts of time researching historic crimes.

The host is quite modest. You can tell that he occasionally has better recall of certain facts than the person he is interviewing, yet he never interrupts or draws attention to his knowledge. Bravo! And no, I’m not his mother!😊

The best podcasts I’ve ever listened to

This is an absolutely fabulous example of the genre, particularly for those of us who have heard the same 2 dozen crimes rehashed again and again. Eric never fails to present a crime story that has either been almost totally forgotten or never before looked at from a different angle. Completely binge-worthy.
