In March 2002, Randy Latona was living in paradise. The American businessman had traded Las Vegas for the Caribbean island of Roatan, Honduras - a place known for crystal-clear water, coral reefs, and postcard-perfect sunsets.
Shortly after starting a prominent Rum business, Randy was found dead from a gunshot wound to the head.
Authorities ruled it a suicide, but his family vehemently disagreed. The only other person inside the condo was his girlfriend, Leslie. Questions quickly surfaced about the scene, the investigation, and what really happened during Randy’s final hours.
Was this a tragic suicide? Or murder?
Over the years, experts would reach dramatically different conclusions, turning this case into a mystery that remains unresolved to this day.
Listen as we dive into Honduras, the case of Randy Latona, and how to stay alive on vacation.

Harry Devert was the kind of person who was always chasing the next adventure. A world traveler from New York, he’d spent years backpacking through different countries, sleeping wherever the road took him, and documenting his journeys along the way.
But in 2014, during a solo motorcycle trip through Mexico on his way to the World Cup in Brazil… Harry suddenly vanished.
Before disappearing, he sent unsettling messages to his girlfriend — saying he’d been escorted out of a dangerous area by the military, and warning that the region he was riding through was heavily controlled by cartels.
Then, without explanation, all communication stopped. No more calls. No more posts. No sign of Harry or his motorcycle.
And in one of the most violent regions in Mexico… that silence would only fuel the mystery.
Listen as we dive into Mexico, the case of Harry Devert, and how to stay alive on vacation.

At just 21 years old, Sophia Koetsier was working toward her medical degree when she left her home in Amsterdam for an internship in Uganda.
But what started as a humanitarian trip would end in one of the most haunting disappearances in Africa.
In October of 2015, after finishing her internship, Sophia set off on a short safari through Uganda’s national parks—a trip meant to celebrate everything she had just accomplished.
Days later, she arrived at Murchison Falls National Park. Shortly after arriving, Sophia walked to the bathrooms a short distance from camp. And she never came back.
Search teams combed the area. Helicopters flew overhead. But what they found only deepened the mystery. Over a decade later Sophia Koetsier is still missing.
Listen as we dive into Uganda, the case of Sophia Koetsier, and how to stay alive on vacation.
