Welcome to Season 3 - Episode 4!

Join me as I dive into the mysterious events of the Battle of Los Angeles—a strange, high-intensity event that took place on the night of February 24, 1942. Was it really a Japanese attack, or something else entirely? I will explore the theories, the cover-ups, and the lasting questions surrounding this infamous, bizarre episode in U.S. history.

The poison in this episode is the Saints of LA.

If you want to drink with me, the recipe for the Saints of LA is as follows:

• 2 oz silver tequila
• 1 oz pineapple juice
• 1 oz fresh lime juice
• 1/2 oz agave syrup
• 4-5 fresh basil leaves
• A splash of club soda
• Lime wheel, for garnish

Muddle basil leaves in a shaker, then add ice, tequila, lime juice, pineapple juice, and agave syrup. Shake for 15 seconds, strain into a highball glass with ice, and top with club soda. Garnish with a lime wheel and enjoy!
