The Collar Bomb Heist

In this episode of Stuff You Should Know, Josh and Chuck dive deep into one of the strangest true crime cases you'll ever hear: the 2003 collar bomb bank robbery in Erie, Pennsylvania. A pizza delivery driver named Brian Wells walks into a bank wearing a homemade bomb around his neck, robs it, and then mysteriously dies when the device detonates while he's surrounded by police—but was he a willing participant or an unwitting victim? The guys unpack this bizarre heist that involved a scavenger hunt, multiple suspects with conflicting stories, and a cast of characters including a brilliant but allegedly ruthless woman named Marjorie Diehl-Armstrong, leading to questions about who really masterminded this deadly caper that technically got solved but still feels unsolved to many.
