Amelia Earhart","description":"<p>She was the most famous female pilot in history, a feminist icon, and arguably the world's first influencer, all carefully built by her book publisher husband George Putnam.

Eighty-nine years on, the most likely explanation for what happened to her might also be the most disturbing of all. This is Just The Gist of Amelia Earhart: the brilliant PR campaign, the doomed 1937 round-the-world flight, and the theory that has haunted Howland Island ever since.</p><p><br></p><p>........</p><p><br></p><p>We give you Just The Gist, but if you want more, there's Breakin' Nooz, JTG After Show AND Bonus eps!
