Missing Richard Simmons

On February 15, 2014, fitness guru Richard Simmons disappeared. Filmmaker Dan Taberski was a Slimmons regular and a friend of Richard's. Missing Richard Simmons is Dan's search for Richard - and the deeper he digs, the stranger it gets.

I didn't know what to expect with this podcast. It's about Richard Simmons - THE Richard Simmons, the exercise guru. He wasn't murdered, he hasn't been kidnapped (that we know of...) but it does appear that he's fallen off the face of the earth quite suddenly.

Even though this barely fits into "True Crime" it does revolve around a mystery, and there's quite a lot of suspense and theories to go around. Three episodes in and I'm already hooked - this podcast is genius, and it's so well done. It would be a shame if anyone missed it, especially anyone interested in unsolved mysteries.

Please give a shot if you're looking for something done as well as Serial.
