Show Notes
This week historian Red Richardson takes us to 1992, where the first thing that piques his interest is the Sydney River McDonald's Murders in Nova Scotia, Canada, Home Alone 2 is released, Whitney Houston's cover of "I Will Always Love You" from the The Bodyguard is number one for 10 weeks, Colombia drug lord Pablo Escobar escapes from his luxury prison La Catedral, Sinead O'Connor tears up a picture of the pope on Saturday Night Live and the number one film of the year is the Peter Pan film, Hook. Also Red had an awful gig and Bobby has a painful thumb.
