On this CLAMMY and FISHY BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel (clam)digs into the audio archives to tell the twisted tale of the Ivar’s Billboard Hoax, aka "Underwatergate." Though, once you've listened, it may have you wondering if there was ever hoax at all, or if it was actually some kind of elaborate coverup. In 2009, Seattle-based Ivar’s seafood restaurants released a series of videos documenting the search for and discovery of UNDERWATER BILLBOARDS in Puget Sound. As the story goes, they were placed in the 1950s by restaurateur and showman Ivar Haglund to reach burgeoning submarine traffic. The 2009 undersea search was all very exciting, and many were completely hooked. But then, Jim Dever, with KING 5's Evening Magazine at the time - and still a great friend of CASCADE OF HISTORY - had the exclusive exposé, produced in cooperation with Ivar’s, and featuring Ivar’s CEO Bob Donegan. As Dever's report made it seem, the whole thing was a brilliant stunt that fooled a lot of people - but it angered a few, too, who thought Ivar's had gone too far. Fast forward to November 2015, and naïve history radio correspondent Feliks Banel set out to tell the backstory with help from Paul Dorpat. Dorpat is a beloved historian - and friend and biographer of Ivar - who had served as official historian of the vintage underwater billboard hunt. When the hoax had been revealed in 2009, Dorpat – longtime author of the weekly “Now & Then” history column - was criticized by many, and even temporarily suspended by The Seattle Times for his role in the stunt. As you listen to Paul Dorpat's 2015 version of events, try to keep clam.

On yet another SPOOKY BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, we present archival audio from the October 2011 LIVE broadcast from Seattle of an adaptation of Washington Irving's "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow."

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with Lloyd Lytle, a leader of the grassroots group working to prevent demolition of the historic Masonic Home of Washington in Des Moines, Washington. Lytle’s group is called Citizens for the Protection of Des Moines Historic Resources. They formed a coalition with Des Moines Historical Society and the Washington Trust for Historic Preservation and filed an appeal of the demolition permit issued in August 2025 by the City of Des Moines to property owner Zenith LLC. On Tuesday, October 21, 2025 and Wednesday, October 22, 2025, a hearing examiner for the City of Des Moines conducted a public hearing online. Lloyd Lytle joined CASCADE OF HISTORY on Thursday, October 23, 205 to give an account of what happened during the hearing, and to preview what might come next. The Masonic Home - which is also known as "Landmark on the Sound" - is a sprawling hotel-like complex built in the 1920s south of Seattle as a retirement home for Freemasons in a park-like setting with a commanding view of Puget Sound. The land and buildings are owned by a private developer called Zenith whose plans for the site have not been revealed.

Feliks Banel's guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is Tom Tangney, retired former Seattle journalist and broadcaster, longtime local cinephile - and all around gadfly. The Seattle International Film Festival – or SIFF - announced on October 9, 2025 that they are ending their lease of the Egyptian Theatre on Seattle’s Capitol Hill. The theatre, which was built as a Masonic Temple around 1916, belongs to Seattle Central College. It’s unclear what’s next for the structure, which has not been officially recognized as a historic landmark. Still, it has served as a movie theatre for decades, and was key to growth of Seattle as a center of movie-going, and to the development of the SIFF. Tom Tangney worked at the Egyptian in the 1980s, and has paid attention to Seattle cinemas and cinephiles for decades.

Feliks Banel's guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is David Eskenazi, Seattle's preeminent sports collector and historian. Seattle is battling Detroit in Major League Baseball's American League Division Series. As this episode was being recorded on Thursday, October 9, 2025, the Mariners and the Tigers were on the eve of facing off in the decisive game of the best of five series. Game Five will take place in Seattle on Friday, October 10, 2025, and the winner will earn the right to face the Toronto Blue Jays in the American League Championship Series. David Eskenazi shares the story of pitcher Fred Hutchinson, Seattle's first big baseball star. Hutch played for the Seattle Rainiers of the Pacific Coast League in 1938 right out of Franklin High School in the Rainier Valley. After a phenomenal season, he was "sold" to the Detroit Tigers, where he became a Major League Baseball star. Hutchinson is also the namesake of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center.

Seattle is battling Detroit in Major League Baseball's American League Division Series. As this episode was being recorded on Wednesday, October 8, 2025, the Mariners and the Tigers were about to face off in Detroit in Game Four of the best of five series.

With this baseball battle underway, Mr. Dimick shares his vast knowledge of Detroit's incredible sports history, and puts up with our goofy questions about sports connections between the two cities, including hydroplane racing in the 1950s, and the Seattle Seahawks losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the Superbowl - held in Detroit - in 2006.

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, we present some recent vintage audio – a piece Feliks Banel produced for a Seattle radio station in October 2022 about the Seattle Mariners and their predecessors – the one-season-and-done Seattle Pilots of 1969 - as well as the backstory of the Milwaukee Brewers. The Pilots left Seattle and became the Brewers in 1970. Ever since the Brewers moved into the National League in the late 1990s, some people in Seattle have wished for the Mariners to face the Brewers in the World Series. It would be Seattle baseball now against Seattle baseball then. The living versus the ghosts. Slade Gorton . . . versus Bud Selig. As of this moment – on Tuesday, October 7, 2025 – both the Mariners and the ghosts of the Seattle Pilots (aka the Milwaukee Brewers) – are still alive in the playoffs, and the match-up remains more possible than it has ever been before.

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, we present more context about Gas Works Park and the Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation’s proposed removal of elements of the historic “cracking towers.” As heard in the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board's meeting of October 1, 2025, at the heart of the debate is what the late landscape architect Rich Haag – who had the radical idea to preserve the industrial elements that give the park its name and its character – intended for those industrial elements over time, and how and whether they would be cared for and maintained. First up are some key highlights and analysis from the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board meeting which took place on Wednesday, October 1, 2025. These highlights illustrate the crux of the debate about what to do to prevent injuries and death at Gas Works Park and what the Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation is also responsible for when it comes to respecting the historic landmark aspects of the park and carrying through the intent of designer Rich Haag. Following the highlights and analysis, we present the entire October 1, 2025 Gas Works Park discussion audio from the Landmarks Board, with some minor editing to remove long silences and extraneous discussion of logistical issues. For additional context, please listen to these earlier episodes of CASCADE OF HISTORY.
