    The last story qualified for a Sick Plug as you mentioned this story in one of your previous videos you made a year ago Tom. Note , TH-cam recommended your channel to me a couple of weeks ago. Already enjoying it.

    What do you mean you're wrapping up the dark side series? Enough dark history in NYC to last a lifetime! Point is I really enjoy your videos and don't want them to end! You're an exceedingly exceptional talent! Also I thought "The Central Park 5" would've been a fitting story for this episode. Good luck, enjoy everything you put out!
