Superman: The George Reeves Story
Superman, the Man of Steel...and all that follows with him. The Superman curse, legend or legit. In this episode we fly straight into the life of George Reeves, a man who took on the roll of Superman in the late 1950s...his life ended in tragedy, or did it, lots of speculation circling George Reeves' death, and the circumstances surrounding it.
Join us, as we dive into his life and career, and his death. Although we may attack this topic in the Detectivery State of Mind way, we make jokes and laugh, we take suicide and mental health very seriously...this story has a very dark ending. The George Reeves story does not have a happy ending...
