Casefile Revisited: The Somerton Man
In December 1948, the body of an unidentified male was found on Somerton Beach in Adelaide, South Australia. It initially appeared the man had simply passed away in his sleep, but as police looked into his death, they discovered a series of bizarre and unexplainable clues that presented more questions than answers.
Was the Somerton Man an international spy?
If so, what was he doing in Adelaide? And what significance did the ancient Persian text found in his pocket hold?
Casefile Revisited features newly re-recorded versions of classic episodes, revisiting the stories with enhanced production, fresh narration, and updated research where possible.

Probably.
Listening to this takes me back to a happier time. Thanks for the re-releases!
Knew this stuff was coming. 8 weeks but I hope we get snowtown. Congratulations!
Very fun to hear the slightly more casual style from the earlier episodes again. I remember when this one was released initially.
“Was the Somerton man an international spy?” Nope! Just some regular jagoff.
