This week, Bob chats with Todd McComas, host of the “10-41” podcast. An ex-marine and police detective turned comedian, Todd launched the first season of 10-41 in 2020, conducting a deep dive into the Indiana Burger Chef Murders alongside one of the lead detectives on the case. Since then, 10-41 has become an episodic, true crime storytelling podcast, where Todd frequently interviews other investigators, and sometimes even the criminals themselves. Bob and Todd discuss Todd’s relationship with Colts football legend Pat McAfee and his involvement with the Tiger King phenomenon. After commiserating over the difficulties of starting a career in stand-up comedy, they also discuss the details of the Burger Chef Murders. Just outside of Indianapolis in 1978, four young employees of a Burger Chef restaurant went missing after working a shift together one night. Police initially assumed the kids had decided to go out partying with money from the till, despite evidence to the contrary. Two days later, the bodies of the four employees were found in a forest over 20 miles away. Despite witnesses and links to other crimes, the case has remained unsolved, and it is likely that those responsible will never be brought to justice.
