That Lizzie Borden mystery is the Jon Benet Ramsey case of that time. A lot of theories but nothing can be nailed down.
No it's not. They know who killed Jon Benet DNA don't lie. Just some rich yt sobs.
His stories are interesting, and his voice is so soothing & gentle that I constantly use this channel to drift off to sleep, then replay it to see what I missed the next day.
Same.
Same 😊
I do the same. 😊
I can make 2 hr ones last 6 hrs as I fall asleep then rewind what t missed too ❤
Me too 💤
Thank you, Paul. I suffer from chronic pain, can't sleep, always looking for a distraction. Your story telling and tone .. exactly what I needed.

I’m 41 and my best friend is going to be 80 this August and Mr. Brodie reminds me of her. Every time we get together for tea (me coffee) I enjoy every story she tells me about her childhood and now. Just seeing how her eyes glow and come alive with happiness as she remembers them just makes my day.
Your neighbor is giving you a gift with her stories. I'm very glad that you appreciate her.
Sitting in the sun listening to two hours of Well I never. Life is good
MMM, cancer
I wish I had a neighbor like Paul Brodie. I will visit him everyday and listen for his story for HOURS!
Same here 👍👍👍
😂😂😂😂 do ya think he would want you there everyday 😂😂😂😂❤ only joking ❤
Poor Dorothy. She was used and abused by a man who wanted to control her. May she rest in peace, and I hope Snyder doesn't.
Usual suspects
Dorothy didn’t use Paul it was just the opposite. She was too young to know he wasn’t a good guy. Peter was a gifted attractive director who fell in love with a beautiful kind hearted Dorothy.
Paul, I truly believe you should record yourself telling stories of your childhood and growing up for your children and grandchildren, or, at least nieces and nephews. It's so important for people to hear about their relatives lives. And you're such a wonderful tale teller.
He used her far more than she used him. He was a predator. A lowlife.
@@beverlyamarantes9775 I think you're replying to someone else.
i really like that you take the time to research how to pronounce things properly instead of just guessing as so many people do nowadays
An Oxford or Collins English dictionary will teach you the pronunciation of the word your using ❤❤❤
Esp Americans saying English places.
I didnt know "Californication" was about Dorothy. Thanks for that ❤
Me either! I’m gonna have to dive into the backstory on that
🎉 Paul, you have a wonderful presence. Thank you for doing these wonderful videos.
Two hours with Paul, what can be better 😊
3 hours.
4 hours...lol
5 then
Agreed.
Paul Snyder?
Clara Phillips was spared the death penalty because of her looks. Gotta love the American justice system. Be either rich or pretty and you can get away with anything.
The people cheering her were disgusting.
Love how Hefner didnt like the husband who was just tue same as him. Someone who took advantage of women. Hef had a rule that the playmates had to sleep with him twice a month. Disgusting
Only Hefner gave them fame and money. Correct me if im wrong but i believe the girls can leave the mansion anytime. The husband, however, is a leech.
Hello -. My name is Deborah, and I live in Southern California, USA.. I came across your channel quite by accident, and enjoy it very much. I don't mean to presume, but from your appearance, it appears that we may be close in age, Please understand, I mention this because I find it very refreshing to listen to and watch a host from my generation! While I may enjoy listening to wide variety of narrators and storytellers, you're extremely well-spoken and articulate, and exceptionally professional. With that said, may I make a request?
Recently I viewed an episode that showed a "blooper" cut replayed, again and again, because you couldn't stop laughing - giggling - long enough to begin that particular segment. That was wonderful, and so funny! It was great to see that side of you! You should consider doing at least one outtake at the end of each show! I may be fairly new to your channel, but I have watched quite a few videos and have enjoyed each one! I just realized, though, after viewing this episode, I find myself looking for more outtakes!
Thank you again for the entertaining and informative videos! Keep up the good work!
I agree! I’m an even more recent viewer and I’ve only come across one video where Paul broke from the script and it really sold it! (The Jack Keant bloody butcher section) ill have to keep an eye out for those outtakes 😊
I couldn't believe the one about the man's son being kidnapped and the kidnappers killing him before asking for any money.😢
Obviously money was not the motive.😣
You are the ultimate storyteller Paul!! Adore you! Hugs from the USA ❤😊
Paul’s calming voice is just what’s needed over a scotch and ice
Yay! I was looking for something interesting to watch. A "Well, I Never"-compilation seem perfect. Still REAL summer here in Norway, and got cold beer this time as well! Have a great weekend everyone! 🙂
@@saltychopper5312 God bless you too, and wishing a great weekend for you, from Alv, and my black, luck-cat Lucis. :)
Enjoy!😅
@@jbye5353 I crochet.😁
@@jbye5353 Oh my! I hope you don't have any nefarious plans with the knitting pins, do you? 😅
Just kidding. I bet the video made you knit in super-speed by sheer excitement. 🙂
Wow, you’re all set , cold beer and nice weather. Enjoy your weekend and even more the beer. All the best from Canada.
He was such a slimy, creepy, bastard. It's so incredibly sad and sick what he did to her. Not just killing her, but everything else he put her through, too. She was SO close to getting free of him.
Too bad she didn't listen to her friends who knew more than her. Too bad she didn't send the lawyer. She would still be alive!
Agreed
Allegedly he has sex with her body sick puppy
He just couldn't let her go & be free of him. So, so, sad story.
Sadly I think he still would have hunted her down no matter where she went....he just couldn't give up his income !! He was scum....and should have done the deed to himself without ki[[ing her too...
Stories like the one about Jane Toppin just totally bewilder me. I cannot get a handle on someone who sets out to annihilate so many people with whom they come in contact. I don't understand how someone can be that evil.
Serial killers with MOs like hers are usually childhood victims of severe abuse. It's not an excuse, but it's definitely an explanation.
Enjoy historical cases because they make me feel less paranoid, and the old tried and true detective techniques are fascinating…
Same!!
Yes, I understand what you mean.
The movie Welcome to Chippendales recently released featured quite a bit of the life of Dorothy Stratton and her killer lover. I heard of her story before, I forgot she's from where I am now - poor girl.
That San Jose mob was horrifying. So many unnecessary injuries! I wonder if any innocents died of their injuries; if not, it's a miracle. Mob mentality is so horrifying; reminds me of the scariest scene from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, when the mob lynches that nurse from Frankenstein's castle, thinking she was guilty because she was always present when people disappeared.
Justice was seved!!
If my memory is correct he actually had affairs the whole time they were married. With the way he treated her, a small town girl with mostly small town thinking, I don’t blame her at all for being with someone else. She deserved a better life.
What a true delight. 2 hours of listening to Paul and Well I Never. What a great treat and surprise. Thanks Well I Never gang.
Oh Paul! I love listening to you telling these stories! I could sit all day & watch your fantastic videos. You’re definitely a born narrator! Keep up the good work! Blessings always! ❤️✝️
The beating of the police and sheriff by the lynch mob was horrific.
Compilation time! Perfect way to get through the afternoon
After I was asked to clean windows in a stupidly hot sun this morning, I could understand if Maggie did murder for that 😂
Hilarious!
Concerning the case of Brooke Hart I think it's easy to judge the crowd for what they did, but if that had been my child... I think I would have been part of that mob
Hooray! Thank you Paul, it’s so appreciated. 💙
I have lived in the San Jose area for 25+ years and while I have heard of the murder of the young Hart (and there is still the remains of the Hart painted logo on a building, presumably left for the history), I didn't know the story in such detail. I LOVE this channel, thank you so much!!!!
I'd have Well, I Never.... narrate my own disappearance! 😉
So Lizzy Borden, it's never been talked about, but her uncle came by the day before her father's death and asked for a loan, Mr. Borden declined, the uncles' location and actions for the next 2 days after Mr. Bordens death had never been verified. He later came back to Lizzy and received the loan he had asked her father for. Little more research and it may be discovered that it Was her uncle that killed the pair.
Interesting, thanx for the info 👍
@@ginachenney5733 that's a wild one. Strange thing is she wanted to be buried next to her father, and she was, and her last words were, I hope one day its discovered who killed my father, I loved him dearly.
That has been researched. There are some other channels that talk of this possibility.
Yes. I've always thought it was him.
Legitimately, I look forward to every one of your videos! Thank you so much for all your hard work,respect, and care you put into telling these events!
So glad I've found this channel
Thanks for this. Oh, Dorothy Stratton. A female employee at Playboy said "Her beauty had something of genius in it." Nobody who even caught a glimpse of Schneider thought him anything but a shyster. But he never forgot a name. About his only virtue. Somebody got a Pulitzer for saying otherwise? Bogdanovich went on to write The Killing of the Unicorn, blaming his former friend Hugh Hefner and the Playboy Empire for Stratton's death, which was gruesome 'way beyond your tasteful mention. She was literally blown apart. Like those of Marilyn and Natalie Wood, there are always flowers on her grave.
@ 1:42:30 I don't know if Absolutely Fabulous used this line from this story, or not, but every time I hear, "I'm just here to visit a sick friend!" I see Patsy talking about Eddie. And now, Lizzie is in the mix. lol
I ❤️ 💕 AbFab! Jennifer Saunders is BRILLIANT! I’m American, but love Brit comedy & programming 😂
Paul should be on TV he is brilliant at telling the stories.....I've been watching as many as I can all are fascinating dint know so many are unsolved......Well done Paul .
He is a stage actor , writer song writer and had performed in bands ❤
It was such a loss and a huge shock when I found out that Dorothy Stratton had been murder by Snider. He was a despicable selfish low life with no redeeming qualities. He had a huge ego with no talent and his actions were totally self serving. She was a beautiful young lady at the beginning of what could have been a wonderful career. Canada was very saddened by her loss, she was torn away much too soon. Muriel Hemingway portrayed her very well in the film “Star 80”. RIP. Dorothy, you are greatly missed. 5:08
I can't believe someone received a 'prestigious award' for victim blaming & trying to make that situation _her fault._ She was a victim of pretty much every kind of abuse, & at the first opportunity she saw to be free of him, he decided her life was his to take as well. Infuriating.
@@KyrieChii It was in NO WAY her fault! It was all him! He saw a very young beautiful girl and saw dollar signs . He was much older than her and she was too young to understand he was just using her. When she gained more experience she realized what a piece of crap he was and started to distance herself from him but he was never going to let his possession go. In his twisted selfish mind she was his property and if he could use her to cash in then no one was. He was a selfish egotistical murderer and a coward, such a coward that once he stole her life he wasn’t going to face up to what he did or the justice system so he blew his brains out . Too bad he didn’t just skip straight to blowing his own head off and being done with it. The world keeps her and hell gets him!
Please forgive my disgust.
Sincerely,
Doc
@@johnhenderson131 No apology necessary, I agree entirely. It's infuriating. I just wish she hadn't been such a kind person & agreed to not only make contact with him in person, but _go to his house alone_ to do so. (Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming her for that either, it was just a tragically naïve bad decision).
Even after everything he did to her, she was trying to be civil. Sadly it sounded like being taken advantage of by men her whole life was an issue she just couldn't seem to escape. She went from him to Hefner.
Thing is Snider was no prize and he simply exploited her for his own personal gratification.
The sad thing is the men in her life after Snider were simply more polished exploiters-with lots of money.
Due to her youth, and her naive trust of these men Dorothy wasn’t given the personal agency or time to grow into herself and attain her dreams through her own talent (which everyone agrees she most certainly had.)
Basically she was treated as a sex goddess ingénue who could be manipulated, at different levels, for different purposes. It’s a clear that all three men wanted something out of her-she never really had a chance to excel at her own personal goals.
It’s horrible to imagine how many women suffered the same fate as Dorothy. Young, beautiful and impressionable girls who felt uncomfortable with what they were asked to do but ultimately submitting because they had been gaslighted into believing it was the only thing they were good for and it was their one and only chance at success.
As a side note Dorothy’s mother bears some culpability in the tragedy. She failed at protecting Dorothy from the slimeball Snider-probably because she saw Dorothy as a burden to her single parent family and wanted her out of her care and responsibility. By signing off on letting Pimp Paul take pictures of her 17 year old daughter (and send them to Playboy) she really seems to be a derelict parent. By letting a second daughter be seduced by a slick, morally questionable, decades older, director all doubt about her lack of fitness to be a parent is removed. It’s remarkable how much damage she allowed her precious daughters to endure. She’s definitely not without sin in the death of Dorothy and corruption of Dorothy’s sister.
Moral: Protect your daughters. Let there talent develop naturally. Help them set realistic goals. Encourage them to have opportunities and options commensurate with their values. Warn them about the techniques of the exploitive system that surrounds them and always give them the opportunity to walk out of these situations and come home smarter and wiser to the tricks of the trade!
Beautiful written!
Paul, i cant express how much i love your storytelling! Your voice is calming and your talent shines through. 🌞. I binge watch/listen episodes. It helps this insomniac / chronic pain sufferer sleep ! I dont mean to imply your boring in any way, shape or form! Your pronunciation and cadence are perfect together.
YES! I know there are other menbers who love to fall asleep to true crime, especially when it's combined with well researched story and orator.
By the way - im obsessed with your wallpaper choice and how the lighting plays with it. Great presentation all around - clothing, mood, talent!
Thank you from the bottom of my ❤️. I have a large one, and you're part of it.
Before RUclips (and to the present day), one true crime doco I've used to help me sleep is: H.H. Holmes. It's from 2004 by John Borowski. It's narrated by the late great Tony Jay, who had an amazing tone of story telling. I could listen to a voice reading an instruction guide on oven repairs if they had that "pronunciation and cadence" as you noted. It's Magic !!
Paul's Well, I Never ALWAYS helps me relax from the woes. His playlist has one called: "On Yer Bike" .. I found these to be truly fascinating 💞
I sadly have joined the club but yes this is the perfect antidote!
I love your channel, it is entertaining, easy to listen and helps with my English too =) Thank you for so fantastic production.
You are going to have an interesting accent.😁
@@thegreencat9947 The right accent 😝
@@tommymorgan4677 Right or not....it will certainly keep them guessing. 😏
These long videos get me though the work day ❤️
ok so let's say that Dorothy Stratten did use Paul Snider and then when a better opportunity arose that she then left him for Peter Bogdanovich. it did not give Paul Snider the right to do to her what he did. the fact that Teresa Carpenter won a Pulitzer for basically blaming the victim is truly mind-boggling. i too have been used but it doesn't mean that i would do something as horrific as what Paul Snider did to her. meh just my 2 cents' worth.
Totally agree and it did seem she was sensitive and caring…
@@claresmith9261 i fully agree with you too
Yeah, I was horrified by the 'won a prestigious award for victim blaming' aspect. No one would try to say 'cheating' is okay, but there was a lot going on in that relationship that was awful. He was really _abusive,_ (in pretty much every possible way) & she had tried to get out more than once before.
No one has the right to take someone's life for choosing to no longer be in a relationship with them. If _anyone_ was used, she was. He groomed her, beat her, used her body to make money (as he had with so many women before), financially controlled everything (& stole large amounts from her), of course she wanted out.
@@KyrieChii EXACTLY! well put. he is a monstrous human being who thought that if he could not have her then no one should either. and then he basically took the cowards' way out too. so ein Misthaufen!
I totally agree with you!
I enjoy seeing the evolution of Paul's magnificent facial hair ❤
I’m always surprised so many people think Lizzie Borden was innocent. Burning the dress, changing her story, the story about Abby visiting a neighbor…plus all the other weird things, sounds guilty to me.
Exactly. She did the crime.
Your channel is one of the very best. Thank you for it. I love how you cover everything and different topics- all with heart and with care.- just to add ( maybe someone already has mentioned this, but there is a wild movie out there if you can get a hold of it, called: Star 80-and good old Eric Roberts as Paul. Good one.
Dorthy Stratten, Pam Anderson we grow them pretty on the West Coast of Canada. Too bad the ghouls in Hollywood got ahold of both of them.
Thx from us ladies in BC!
She would regret meeting up with him. He's a controlling sob. It was never going to end well. When you separate from a person like this - it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out the fallout. Anybody in an abusive relationship has to recognize the signs and danger. It's human nature to want to better your circumstances. He just wanted to ride on her success. Never seeking a job of his own. Poor Dorothy.
Exactly I have watched many documentaries on her
... he used her until she stood up for herself
Period. He was a pimp
The second case reminds me of Beverley Allett. She even looks like her.
Great show and well narrated . Thanks
Yes, you're right there.
Dear Mr. Brodie, your Voice and your beautiful accent are music to my ears. Thank you For your mesmerizing storytelling.
Everything is better when a Scotsman narrator 😅
Hallelujah pass the soup!
Get to listen to a long one. Thank u Paul
Bogdanovich seems to have been a clever and thoughtful person . He clearly loved her and later on he fell for Cybil Shepherd
He married Dorothy Stratton younger sister when she got to 20 yrs of age
It is amazing to me that the power that Hefner had he could have had Snider killed. He had enough connections to do it. They told Dorothy not to see this man alone but Dorothy was naive. A fatal mistake 8:10
Thanks for another great video! Can't wait to see you and Nicola together in an excellent history lesson...peace🍺
Thanks for the compilation! Love these ❤️
My goodness, you get distracted for even a second and the story has taken another weird turn with Dolly. 😳 I looked up just in time for “EIGHT times..” from a phone call I couldn’t avoid lol
I so loved this episode! So well done and interesting stories! Thank you 🇺🇸
It's genius storytelling to relate to us a story that everybody "knows," but doesn't really know. That could be a great avenue, re-visiting supposedly well-known stories, with depth and detail, and turnabout.
Who brings their 2 little children to a lynching?
People who lynch
It was often treated as a spectacle for the family with people having picnics and the like.
During the civil war people would bring their kids to watch battles……until a cannon ball came
Thank you 😊
You tell a bloody good story................
Love your show, it's my favorite! And I love my coffee mug!! Happy weekend to you!!
Lizzie Borden, is a morbid rhyme in America.
Lizzie Borden took an axe. And gave her mother forty whacks,And when she saw what she had done,She gave her father forty-one.
Well I Never! Expected such quality, consistent, content. Cheers
Lizzie was innocent. If you ever see a breakdown of all the tasks she would have had to complete in a small number of minutes (20 I think I recall), there's just no way anyone could do it even with planning and practice drills.
i really hope you make a video on nellie duncan, the last witch in britain to be jailed.
you Are the best presenter EVER! LOVE YA!
Love your content 🙂
Another great episode, and twice as long. Perfect.
You are a marvel! Thank you so much!
My favourite compilations! Thank you!
So very interestingly presented! Thank you!
New subscriber here! I was thinking about different crimes that you could post about. Sherri Dalley in Ventura, California. Crazy stuff!! Sad, so tragic.
Wow I just came across this video of your's and I must say you are now on my all time favorite story Tellers. Your foreign accent helps Alot too. Great job and keep the story's coming. Will be subscribing also. Thanks
Great video as always !
Easy listening voice. Very well prepared and researched. Great site👍❤️
If more criminals were treated like this, doubtful but maybe it'd make the criminals think twice.
Except as many of the stories told on this channel have stated- public executions and lynching did absolutely nothing to curb crime.
Only subscribed yesterday and am settling in for my second night falling asleep to your dulcet tones ! Thank you x
Awesome stuff, I just love it all!!
Great stories!!,thanks again Andrew!!
This dude has the best voice for story telling. And I just came across this channel on accident but truly I am glad I did. Just subscribed and will be watching many more videos like this on your channel job well done
It’s “ by accident “ ❤
Wonderful narration!
Excellent as usual Paul
Wonderful thanks so much Paul
I have a feeling Lizzie and Maggie had a plan
Oops I’m sorry! It’s mentioned already! I got excited when I saw the episode and what it was about, I left that comment before watching. I thought I was helping- you are just too good 👍
Your story telling is great Paul!!..So,thank you for these..very entertaining indeed..The last story is so reminiscent of a movie I saw in the last few years..Starring Elizabeth Montgomery...great film,brilliant actress staring in it too...Well worth a watch..Best...
Alright Paul you guys out due yourself everytime
the story of that lynch mob is absolutely barbaric
All of the things that were done to that tree afterwards were equally barbaric!😢
Hi Paul. Your channel is, for me, the best on You Tube.. If not already done, how about Siege of Sidney Street
Wonderful story teller !!❤ much Love😊
Live your channel
Thank You love your work
52:41 So the lynching did not curb kidnapping. Quelle Surprise.
I am not a big advocate for capital punishment, although it sounds as if these two deserved it. But I am certainly an opponent of extrajudicial lynching.
