    OM Backroads: Ep. 107. The Rise and Fall of the Society of the Banana: How one Ohio man took down Americas first criminal empire
    Apr 12 2026
    Hello Ohio Mysteries Backroads listeners. In the quiet railroad town of Bellefontaine, crates of bananas once arrived daily—ordinary cargo masking an extraordinary and sinister story. In this episode, we dive into the shadowy world of the so-called “Society of the Banana,” a chilling chapter tied to the rise of the Black Hand in small-town Ohio. What seemed like a simple fruit business became entangled with whispers of extortion, secret threats, and violence carried over from the Old World into America’s heartland. Through the lens of a brutal early 20th-century crime, we explore how immigrant communities were targeted, how coded warnings and fear spread through tight-knit neighborhoods, and how something as innocent as a shipment of bananas could conceal a much darker reality. Join us as we peel back the layers of this forgotten mystery—where commerce, crime, and culture collided in Bellefontaine, and where the reach of the Black Hand may have been closer than anyone dared to admit. You are invited to join me, your co-host Dan, for a fun discussion of your favorite Ohio Mysteries episodes on Thursday, April 16th at 7pm at the Music Box Supper Club at the Music Box Supper Club in Cleveland, Ohio.

  • OM Backroads: Ep. 106.Laffin Sal and the Echoes of the Midway

    OM Backroads: Ep. 106.Laffin Sal and the Echoes of the Midway
    Apr 6 2026
    Hello and Welcome to another episode of Ohio Mystery Backroads. Step right up folks… but don’t get too close to Laffin Sal. In this chilling episode, we explore the wild history of one of America’s most unsettling carnival icons—a life-sized laughing figure whose cackling once echoed across midways and funhouses. Known for her wide grin, towering presence, and relentless mechanical laughter, Laffin Sal was designed to entertain… but for many, she did the exact opposite. We’ll trace Sal’s origins at a paper cache company in Canton, Ohio on to early 20th-century amusement parks, uncover how she became a staple attraction, and dive into the strange stories that followed her—from frightened children to lingering rumors that her laughter carried something far more sinister than simple amusement. Why does she still unsettle people today? And how did a piece of vintage entertainment become a symbol of pure nightmare fuel? Join us as we pull back the curtain on carnival history, nostalgia, and the thin line between fun and fear—because once you hear Laffin Sal… you may never forget it. You are invited to join me, your co-host Dan, for a fun discussion of your favorite Ohio Mysteries episodes on Thursday, April 16th at 7pm at the Music Box Supper Club at the Music Box Supper Club in Cleveland, Ohio.

    10-Minute Mystery: Mob Mentility - Cleveland's 10-Cent Beer Night Riot
    Apr 1 2026
    10-Minute Mystery: Mob Mentility - Cleveland's 10-Cent Beer Night Riot 1974, the Texas Rangers came to town to play the Cleveland Indians, one week after they had a bench-clearing brawl in Texas. Fans were whipped up into a frenzy before their arrival, but worse, the game took place on a pre-scheduled promotional night that sold beer for 10 cents a cup. The result was a day that lives on in infamy. Audionautix- The Great UnknownThe Great Phospher- Daniel Birch Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
