Not Another True Crime Podcast

Sara and Danny cover the story of Norman Baker, the magician who later claimed to have the cure for cancer. They start off by exploring his background as a vaudeville performer, inventor, and tramp machinist (yes, that’s a real profession). They talk about his time as the original Joe Rogan hosting his own radio broadcasting show called KTNT “Know The Naked Truth” - if only he was born 98 years later. Finally they chat about how he secured fame as well as state and federal prison terms by promoting a supposed cure for cancer.
