Episode 5: The Murder of Sam Cooke
Manage episode 312879268 series 3250331
Get your record player and '60s garb out, because this week, we're diving deep into the mysteries surrounding the murder of the King of Soul, Sam Cooke. Did J. Edgar Hoover let the best of his paranoia get to him, and order Sam killed? Who were the two women he was with during the last minutes of his life? Was his own manager out to silence him -- permanently? All of these #QUESTIONS and more are what we ask ourselves on this week, so let's get ready to get Dark As Hell.
