This is a Glassbox Media Podcast.

Welcome back to Missing. I am Tim here today with Lance. Lance, how are you today?

I'm doing fantastic today, Tim. I hope all the listeners out there. I hope they're doing fantastic as well.

And it's always a great episode when we have old friends coming on who are bringing these stories to us

and really love in the way that this one played out.

I don't really love the fact that it's a tragic story, but to talk about these things and to really dig into them, I think is super important.

But Tim, what's super important to me right now is how you are.

I am doing great. Thanks a lot for asking. Yeah, this is a really interesting topic today.

A really interesting conversation about a fellow named Eugene Izzy, who died on December 7, 1996 in Chicago, Illinois.

He was a writer, and his death was ruled a suicide, but we're going to go over it in depth with our friend, Christy Arnhard, who put together this research for us.

So big thanks to Christy, and I think you're really going to enjoy this conversation.

And if you're not familiar with Eugene Izzy, and you'd like the style of these pulp-ish, true crime, like hard-boiled detective novels, you should give him a look.

Google Eugene Izzy books, and check out some of his books. I mean, his death was really mysterious, and his life was very tragic.

He made something of himself by becoming this prolific writer.

So by enjoying his work, after he's died, just keeps his name out there.

I had never heard of him before, so I've decided to go down the rabbit hole and start reading his books, because I mean, having such a fascinating person creating, I feel like needs to...

needs to be taken advantage of.
