Hello, I've really welcome back to a brand new episode of Decoding the Unknown.

This one's all about James Dean's curse car.

The only thing I've, like James Dean, I don't think I've ever seen a movie with James Dean because of course I haven't,

it's crazy like, and I'm sure in 50 years or whatever, in hundred years people will be like never seen Tom Cruise movies because you know nothing's forever and then everyone is ultimately forgotten and I believe he had a car crash on like Mulholland Drive or something I want to say and then wasn't his car like

transported round schools and said like don't drive dangerous or something like that

I don't remember let's just jump into it thank you Katie writing it. The format of the show if you're new here is I've never read this before we're going to explore it together and find out if the car is really cursed. I get the feeling it might not be cursed.

James Dean is one of those people who because of his untimely death has achieved icon status in our collective memory.

Yeah, like, I've never seen a movie with James D, but I for sure know what James D looks like.

Forever young, cool, and with good hair, don't worry Simon, I'm sure he couldn't go a beard for shit you

goddamn right he will remain a recognizable movie star long after we're all gone

and even though I've personally never seen any of his films I still know his

name his face and the fact that he died young.

Yes, that sounds like Katie and I are on exactly the same page with this one.

What I did not know, however, was that his car was possibly evil.

Don't believe me, eh?

Well, let's take a walk through the history of the car known as a little bastard, and then

tell me what you think at the end.

Oh God.

How many cars?

How many people is his car killed?

Jesus.

The death of James Dean.
