Ep. 176 – Christopher & Eric’s True Crime TV Club Serves Up “Stealing Van Gogh: The Greatest Art Heist of the 21st Century”

In the final burst of April Showers Bring Van Gogh Flowers Month, Christopher and Eric embark on a dizzying international journey that begins with a swift and skillful break in at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, which your hosts visited only weeks before. (They're innocent. We promise!) In STEALING VAN GOGH: THE GREATEST ART HEIST OF THE 21st CENTURY on the Real Stories You Tube channel, art historian Andrew Graham Dixon takes a globe-trotting journey in search of two beloved Van Gogh paintings that were stolen in the dead of night by accomplished thieves. From the streets of Amsterdam to the frigid alleyways of the Ukraine to the sun drenched suburbs of Naples, Italy, it's a suspenseful and ultimately gratifying story that taught Christopher and Eric the real value of art in the eyes of the criminal underworld.
