My daughter just asked why we say "hang up" the phone and now I feel 90.

[Jason English @EnglishJason]

In 1981, an 11-year-old got a phone call that would change his life. He wasn’t a child actor. Just a suburban kid enjoying summer break. But he had something no other kid had — something Steven Spielberg needed to make his most ambitious movie yet.

We teamed up with @joepompeo to examine Agatha Christie’s biggest mystery, which unfolded outside her books.

Dana, Zaron and I revisit the 11 days she went missing, and the media circus her disappearance inspired.

Did you know that in the early 20th century, it wasn’t just athletes competing for medals at the #Olympics? It was poets and artists as well.

@DanaSchwartzzz tells the remarkable story on ‘Very Special Episodes.'

[Hark Audio @HarkAudio]

The 1904 Olympics in St. Louis were not as well-organized as the modern-day Games.

On ‘Very Special Episodes,’ @DanaSchwartzzz tells the wild story of the marathon, which involved runners taking naps, using cars and doping using rat poison.

This week on Very Special Episodes, @Zaron3 unraveled a Nancy Drew mystery — https://t.co/nYnVDP4Mqo

[Zaron Burnett III @Zaron3]

The biggest Nancy Drew mystery isn’t hidden in the plots of the books. It’s on the cover.

“Who is the real Carolyn Keene?”

For 50 years, two women laid claim.

Finally, in 1980, with help from an amateur detective, the truth came out in court.

We couldn’t let February 29th pass without a great moment on it.

On @DanaSchwartzzz’s excellent ‘Very Special Episodes,’ she introduces us to Raenell Dawn, a woman who was born on this day - and made celebrating that fact her life’s work. @LeapDayLady
