The Curious Case of the Jims - coincidence or something more?

Two boys born in the same Ohio hospital on the same day in 1939 grow up unaware of each other’s existence, but they somehow spend their lives making eerily similar choices, from the names of their wives and children to the cars they drive and the jobs they work. Decades later, a single phone call brings them together, revealing even more coincidences. Jack and Katy explore this curious case in today's episode.Follow Mystery For Two on Instagram:instagram.com/mysteryfortwopodcast& watch us on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@MysteryForTwoPodcastSources:• Minnesota Study of Twins Reared Apart — Communicating Psychological Science: https://www.communicatingpsychologicalscience.com/blog/minnesota-study-of-twins-reared-apart• Carey, Benedict — “Twins Reared Apart: A Living Lab,” The New York Times (1979): https://www.nytimes.com/1979/12/09/archives/twins-reared-apart-a-living-lab.html• Other Twin Research at UMN — Minnesota Center for Twin and Family Research: https://mctfr.psych.umn.edu/other-twin-research/other-twin-research-umn• NPR Transcript — Program No. 1230111399: https://www.npr.org/transcripts/1230111399• Top Baby Names of 1939 — BabyCenter: https://www.babycenter.com/baby-names/most-popular/top-baby-names-1939• YouTube — Minnesota Twin Study video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lfDW75VhHcAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
