Welcome back, degenerates and overthinkers! Season 2 of Zachsolved Mysteries is here, and we’re starting off strong with questionable nautical choices, a war-era slush fund with zero insight, and a love story that’s as bizarre as it is unexpectedly sweet.
We’re investigating the disappearance of a journalism student who set sail on a boat that, much like its captain, was not what it seemed. Then, we examine the case of a young tennis pro who turned his back on a life of privilege, much to the horror of his pearl-clutching family, and found himself drawn to a mystic who actually seemed to be paying attention. Meanwhile, an Austrian lake is hiding a fortune in Nazi gold, but the only thing less competent than white supremacists is their ability to cash in on their stolen treasure. And finally, we recount the stunning beginning of a prison-break romance, because nothing says “till death do us part” like getting handcuffed to a bed – twice!
Along the way, we break down the logistics of international waters-based murder, the unexpected dangers of mixing country club sports with unresolved trauma, and whether Robert Stack owns a cozy winter bungalow in Coral Gables. We also get real about mental health, existential spirals, and what happens when dreams are so visceral they follow you into your waking life.
If you've ever considered fleeing the country with a guy who has long, flowing hair and an urgent but non-specific plan, at least listen to this episode first. If you haven’t—good. Stay put.
Welcome to Season 2. Let’s get weird.
