"You hear an alarm and breaking glass, you try, but you can't move. Someone picks you up and put's you in a bag. You're a painting by Johannes Vermeer and this is the Red Threads."
Things like this and D.B./Dan Cooper are my favorite kinds of "true-crime" mysteries. They happened, nobody was seriously harmed, the way they happened was almost comical or surreal, the criminals got away, and *_that's all we know for certain.._* All we're left to do is speculate what happened afterwards and what their motives were. If we didn't have actual records of it, it would be no-different than a folktale. But it really happened, and that's awesome.
Exactly. My problem with typical true crime stuff is how it encourages people to treat real murders and horrific events like a tv show. Stuff like D.B. Cooper is much more innocent
Feel the exact same way. The over-saturation of violent true crime is desensitizing and feels immoral, it puts me off. You’d probably really enjoy the Bling Ring documentary lol
Have you heard of D.B _Tuber?_ Full disclosure, the guy (unfortunately) was caught. But its considered "one of the most elaborately planned armored car heist in US history". Guys a motivational speaker now. Good for him. The Watcher channels got a great video about it.
Art is notoriously difficult to sell. Both the Mona Lisa and the Scream were recovered when the thieves tried to cash in. I've heard somewhere that thieves could have buyer lined up in advance for specific pieces. That could explain why they left the Titian painting.
That’s the only way art theft can make anywhere near enough money to be worth the risk. The normal market will either notice the recently stolen artwork or consider it a copy or forgery and pay very little, and the black market won’t want to risk obtaining hot merchandise that everyone in the world is looking for and it could be a setup. So either the buyer now has the paintings and is keeping them in a secret room only for their own selfish enjoyment, or the thieves have them stashed in one of their attics and now don’t know what to do with them.
Charlie's absolutely correct about how hard it would be to sell expensive stolen art. It actually a hige issue. Most petty, or low level thieves don't have the resources and connections to be able to successfully sell stolen art. Jewels are far, FAR easier to off hand. With art you need a buyer, a means to sell it (it's usually done via an indirect transaction or money laundering, not a direct "sale"), and about 5 other very complicated processes involving "ownership" if its been stolen before, authentication, and insurance that the average person hasn't even heard of.
I think that's exactly what happened. Some semi-capable guys got a "great idea" to rob a museum with little to no planning what to do with stolen art after. Incredibly they pulled it off but cant sell it. And then they go around the criminal underground trying to make contacts and sell it with no success, probably thats why that mobster guy had a list of artworks on a piece of paper, it was just "back of the napkin" calculation ( and then probably decided no, those guys are a joke i dont want to have to do anything with this ). Maybe they went to various people and thats how the word spread but nobody could pinpoint exactly who has the paintings, because the robbers were probably very paranoid ( due to their inexperience in all of this ). Artworks are probably literaly sitting in somebody's attic/basement to this day.
@@TheCyanHawk. Me being Greek, this was the first time I've heard of this joke and it cracked me up a lot. I can understand how it can be oversaturated though, yeah.
I just went to this museum yesterday. The empty frames on the wall in the room where the paintings were stolen from is quite striking. The whole castle is beautiful and interesting, a maximalist paradise.
They clearly have done little to no research into this based on how little they seem to understand the art involved, not to mention the bad theories they have. They could’ve just watched the Netflix documentary about this…. Lmao
You get the name Dick from Richard because of how letters were written at the time. It was Rick but the written R had the loop much larger and would often be misread as a D thus Rick became Dick.
is that it? i always thought it was because it rhymed, which i supposed was a common way names were shortened in the middle ages? so it would be Rick/Dick or Will/Bill or Rob/Bob
They never consider that it could’ve been sold to a foreign mobster or some equivalent. Someone who wouldn’t be opposed to buying stolen novelties, no less high profile American ones.
As someone from Boston who no longer lives in Massachusetts this made me very happy to hear just anyone talk about home lol having said that you guys did great but you pronounced Bulger wrong and it burned my soul just a little lol
Ive been to the museum. A lot of cool stuff there and if youre in boston definitely check it out. The frames for the paintings are still there and it's eerie.
Don’t worry, wendigoon I heard The ask nicely joke when they were talking about Richard and Dick. I know they blew past it, but I want to let you know I appreciate it and laughed at it.
Hey I actually live across from the museum in a dorm. Just wanted to the place is even more beautiful in person. They let students go for free on certain days so I often study there.
Charlie is chronically online. Everytime he hears of schemes and plots, he’s the first to think it’s dumb and the first to think he could do it better.
There was a thief at a place i used to work at who was stealing cash and literally never spent any of it. just kept it. Turned it all right back in after hoarding it for months once he was caught.
We had a shooting threat at my school today, and I found out today that a friend of mine has been officially reported missing. I'm not having a very good day but this has made it a million times better, thank you for creating great content, you're content has made my life so much better so thank you!
1. i am so, so sorry that happened to you 2. i'm sorry for the insensitivity of the only other person who replied to you 3. this episode made me feel the same way, even though i'm in different circumstances from you
When my mom was in college in Boston, she wanted to go see the Sea of Galilee.so she made a plan to go to the Stewart Gardner museum. the day RIGHT AFTER it got stolen. She’s still salty, and frankly, I do not blame her. I got to see the empty frames in person once, and it’s genuinely haunting in a way. The museum itself is a monument to artistic history, the empty frames are a monument to human greed. You couldn’t make more of a statement if you tried.
From someone who has watched wendigoon before he popped off, loved watching jackson and charlie play those games that your choices change events, this is the perfect cast for conspiracy videos. Hells yeah
From the title alone, I can't help but imagine a bunch of people show up to an art museum, donning ski masks, one guy fires into the ceiling and shouts "Nobody move! Wea takin' the freakin' aht!" Before ripping a bunch of paintings off the walls and just carrying them out under their arms. They get caught when they find their DNA on beer bottles they all chugged and threw on the ground on the sidewalk right in front of the museum's doors. Mark Wahlberg stars as the cop that busts them in the movie that gets made about them.
I love hearing our boys talking about local mysteries. And poor Wendigoon, he doesn’t know how Whitey Bulger’s name is pronounced. It’s ‘Bul-jer’, for the record.
This has been my new favourite podcast for a couple weeks now. And I play it when I’m washing up or cleaning. My dad really likes the subjects and the research done but he can’t stand all the laughing especially wendigoons 😂😂
Loved this episode, I live in Boston and have visited the museum a few times. The heist is great publicity for the location, I must say. Just a critique if you do a future video on Whitey Bulger (he was pretty prolific) his name has a pronunciation of Buldger (like groin) haha. It was nails on a chalkboard hearing bul-gur
Hi guys! I absolutely LOVE your podcast to death, it's what I look forward to every week! I was thinking it would be amazing to see an episode on the Chernobyl meltdown 🎉🎉🎉
my completely baseless theory is that Isabella Stewart Gardner insisted that nothing in the museum should be changed because the heist was her galaxy brain pet project to keep this art relevant and talked about decades later
You guys probly wont see this since its an older episode but binging these videos/podcasts have been getting me through post-surgery recovery so thank you guys for being you and making great content ❤
This just sounds like 2 seperate heists happening on the same night. Its funny how the first 2 people were fumbling around setting off every single sensor. Except the one in the hidden room
I'm so glad you guys are covering this! I watched a documentary about this like a year ago and still think about it sometimes. I wonder if we'll ever see these paintings again, I still google it once in a while to see if any leads have been discovered.
As someone from the Boston Area…. Yeah y’all need to look into Whitey Bulger (Bulge-r). Its very well assumed around here that he had something to do with it being the Al Capone of Boston
My theory-the paintings never went missing, this was an elaborate scheme by the museum institute itself to claim some insurance money. They're just waiting for enough time to go by for them to claim the paintings have been found and returned.
A painting restoration went explosively awry when someone opened up a heavily-shaken soda at an inopportune moment. In a panic, the museum security director had 24 hours or less to figure out how to contact the mob to plan an inside-job robbery.
i knew who the Grateful Dead were when i was 12 but there were some way more famous and well known things about pop culture in general i didn't even have a clue about til my 20s because the information wasn't at my fingertips like it is now. i know Jackson is like 2ish yrs older than Isaiah but ppl just grow up exposed to different things. if music isn't a strong interest of yours beyond listening to it then unless you had boomer or gen-x parents or friends of family who introduced you it actually kinda makes sense. conversely to what i said, the oversatuartion of information about literally everything and all media, actually also makes it understandable why he wouldn't know.
I was listening to this on Spotify yesterday, and I had my playlist queued up after, so when this finished, “What I’ve Done” played after! Now the podcast has something in common with the bayverse transformers movies
Dude I am listening to this while doing an assignment for an international business course and right as I was typing the word “expatriate” it came up in the podcast, super wild coincidence lol
There actually was a guy who stole a bunch of fine art and kept it all in his moms attic where he lived, you guys should look into that, might make a good episode
I think the thieves being actual cops gives credence to them being very comfortable and not in a hurry. If they're actual cops, they have their radios and will be able to hear if any police are coming, so they don't need to rush. They'll have plenty of warning time.
if you've ever been in Boston on St Paddy's night then you KNOW why the security guard's explanation for concern is so believably plausible. and you also know exactly why anyone planning a heist would pick that date and time. btw this is my favorite Red Thread episode so far. i've watched all 21 so far and they're all so fascinating and engaging but the boys' energy riffing with eachother and their jokes had me crying laughing the while time. i don't get to laugh a lot so you've made me so happy. it's a good change of pace from some of the much more somber eps.
3:37 the biggest Gold heist ever happened from an armored truck right here on a NC highway. Amazing story you guys should cover. Lots of wierd shit along with the story.
People who deal with this kind of stuff are more interested in owing it than showing it off. It’s a power and ego thing. Not a normal art collector who shows this stuff off. There are circles of really rich people who have privet collections. There are networks for people to buy and trade rare or stollen works. It’s a really interesting rabbit hole. So many cases of rare works of art or stuff being stollen from museums being found accidentally because police were looking into some other crime. It’s really interesting and you will find a lot of cases if you dig into to it.

Or someone was wealthy enough and hired these people to do it. I could see a wealthy enough person wanting some of the artwork and doing that.
The fact that neither Jackson nor Charlie pronounced "Galilee" correctly and Isaiah very generously said nothing both times is so funny to me
Turn the other cheek 🤷♀️
That’s okay, Isaiah didn’t get Whitey Bulger’s name right.
I'm pretty sure they all pronounced Chez wrong too xD
i know he was sweating about it lol
And calling Whitley Whitey was also funny

I refuse to believe the guys that said "gentlemen, this is a robbery" were just idiots. Thats just too suave.
Words are much easier to plan than a heist.
Sounds like a redditor lol
i live in boston and i just visited this museum for the first time two weeks ago. saw the empty frames. they’re so much bigger in real life
The empty frames are like memorials to what was lost.
This episode is gold for Wendigoon’s half assed attempt at an Italian mob boss accent every time he needed to imitate a criminal alone
“Hey guys!” In bad attempt and it ends there
I'm so mad that nobody reacted to Isaiah's "You ask nicely" to Charlie's "How do you get Dick from Richard?"
It's funny but it's a super overused joke

People who deal with this kind of stuff are more interested in owing it than showing it off. It’s a power and ego thing. Not a normal art collector who shows this stuff off. There are circles of really rich people who have privet collections. There are networks for people to buy and trade rare or stollen works. It’s a really interesting rabbit hole. So many cases of rare works of art or stuff being stollen from museums being found accidentally because police were looking into some other crime. It’s really interesting and you will find a lot of cases if you dig into to it.
