  • The Man with Two Calendars: A Snake, a Secret Life

    The Man with Two Calendars: A Snake, a Secret Life
    Oct 30 2026
    The Man with Two Calendars: A Snake, a Secret Life

    A quiet discovery in a rented garage revealed a fed four-foot red-tailed boa named Clio, alive in a heated tank while her owner, Donald Hunt, had been dead for nine days - and a logbook showed care continued five days after his death. How did a man keep a perfectly maintained second life eighty-one miles away, with therapists in two cities, and leave a calendar mapping both worlds in plain sight?

    In this episode, we follow the sequence of concrete discoveries and the people connected to them to understand the circumstances around Donald Hunt's two lives and the choices that kept them separate. What did the overlapping therapy, the calendar marked with W and L, and the continuing care of Clio reveal about why he maintained a double life?

    Person: Donald Hunt
    Date of death: November 13
    Location of garage: Fenwick Road, Larkin
    Snake: Clio, red-tailed boa, approximately four feet long
    Therapists: Paul Enberg (Weller City), Vivian Cho (Larkin)

    - The snake was housed in a forty-gallon tank with two digital thermometers and a filtration system and the garage temperature was 78°F.
    - Seven spiral logbooks recorded nearly six years of Clio's care with feeding every 10-12 days and consistent handwriting.
    - The last logbook entry was dated five days after Donald Hunt's death, indicating someone had been present after he died.
    - Donald Hunt died at age 44 of a cardiac cause after a heart condition diagnosed in September, roughly two months before his death.
    - A paper desk calendar showed 52 weekly entries of either a W or an L penciled on every Sunday, tracking Weller City and Larkin visits.

    The Man in the Christmas Photo: Two Wives, One Hidden Life

    A single framed Christmas photo in a storage unit exposed a double life: the man in the picture was Scott White, not the “Daniel Marsh” on the rental contract, and two women sixty‑three miles apart had been dating the same man for three years. How did a $40 storage auction and a green tote unravel a carefully maintained identity with birth cards, tax documents, and a prop family photo?

    In this episode, we tell the timeline of events from the storage auction through the rapid collapse of two parallel lives, following the clues in receipts, money orders, and a framed family card to the moment the truth surfaced. What did the items in that twelve‑by‑eight unit reveal about who he really was?

    Person: Scott White
    Person: Daniel Marsh
    Location: Birch Hollow Road storage unit, Lakeview, Ohio
    Date: late September 2011
    Salary: roughly $51,000 per year

    - Storage auction purchase price paid by Lloyd Perry: $40
    - Distance between the two towns where the women lived: 63 miles
    - Storage unit dimensions: 12 feet by 8 feet
    - Frequency of money order purchases observed at Kroger: 2-3 times per month, each just under $500
    - Month Scott rented the storage unit: April 2009

    Two Bakeries, One Man: The Double Life of Lloyd Owens
    Oct 28 2026
    Two Bakeries, One Man: The Double Life of Lloyd Owens

    A quiet gravel lot, a pristine two-tier cake stand, and a cream card signed "With love, from Sunrise Provisions" - a small, deliberate object that unraveled eleven years of carefully managed secrets. How did a man who maintained two names, two homes, two cars and two bakeries finally slip when a single wedding booking forced both lives to meet?

    In this episode, we follow the sequence of events that led from an early September morning discovery to the unraveling of Lloyd Owens's double life, tracing his routines, the two businesses he ran, and the one moment that exposed the overlap. Can a life split between Kellerton and Kellerton survive when a wedding brings both worlds to the same place?

    Person: Lloyd Owens
    Age: 54
    Location: Kellerton and Kellerton (two towns in Hatchett County)
    Business: Sunrise Provisions and Cloverfield Kitchen
    Date of key event: September 14, 2014

    - At 6:40 AM on a Saturday in September 2014 Cheryl Hoffman found an empty two-tier white porcelain cake stand on the Hathaway Fields gravel lot.
    - The small cream-colored card on the stand read "With love, from Sunrise Provisions."
    - Lloyd lived with Paula Strent for eight years and was described as arriving Sunday nights around 5:30 AM after visiting his brother.
    - In Kellerton Lloyd owned Sunrise Provisions on Main Street for nine years, supplying wedding cakes and daily bread to a town of roughly 11,000 people.
