Summary

In February 2019, Jón Jónsson traveled from his home in Iceland to Dublin, Ireland, to participate in a poker tournament. A day and a half into his trip, Jón walked out of his hotel and was never seen again. There is no shortage of theories about what happened to Jón, and the known facts are extremely mysterious.

Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the disappearance of Jón Jónsson. The trip started on the wrong foot when his fiancée couldn't find her passport, and Jón flew to Ireland without her. When she showed up, she saw Jón for just a short time before he walked out of the hotel and didn't return. Was Jón's disappearance connected to the poker club or money that he owed someone? There has even been talk of a hitman who targeted the wrong person.
