#271 James Dean’s Cursed Porsche (Moonwalker’s Birthday 2025)

from But It Was Aliens · host But It Was Aliens

The extraterrestrial comedy podcast where we probe whether the car involved in the death of James Dean was cursed. That car was a Porsche. A Porsche 550 Spyder. Following the accident, the vehicle changed hands several times and most hands that touched the vehicle ended up deceased. Was this truly a curse? Or was this a lesson that you shouldn’t use parts from a vehicle that’s been involved in an accident? Alongside that, we ponder the earlier cars we have both owned and car names… All that and more on this episode. Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/butitwasaliensStore:https://butitwasaliens.co.uk/shop/Probe us:Email: [email protected]/Threads @ ButItWasAliensTwitter @ ButItWasAliensFacebook: @ ButItWasAliens - join Extraterrestrial TowersMusic: Music created via Garageband.
