RAISING THE CURTAIN
ON THIS WEEK’S ISSUE
I
n 2013, police testing so-
nar equipment in Foss Lake,
Oklahoma, found two cars at the
bottom of the lake, each with the
remains of three people inside.
The trio in one car, a 1952
Chevrolet sedan, had disap-
peared from the area in 1969.
The other, a 1969 Chevrolet
Camaro, went missing near the
lake in 1970.
Medical examiners confi rmed
the identities of the six people,
all of whom who lived in that part
of western Oklahoma.
What happened?
The theories, as theories tend
to be, are numerous.
Not so for defi nitive answers.
The mystery of the cars in
Foss Lake, and the six people
who died, is the subject of an
episode of “Auto/Biography,” a
documentary series that started
in 2019 and is produced by Motor
Trend magazine. Episodes, which
are 44 minutes long, stream on
Amazon Prime and Discovery+.
I generally avoid reading
autobiographies. Even the more
compelling examples of the
genre suff er, it seems to me, from
the inevitable taint of narcissism.
But “Auto/Biography” is
merely a play on words. The
series, created by Tim Donahue
and Michael May, focuses on
mysteries and other interesting
stories in which vehicles play a
prominent role.
My family came across the
series and a newer off shoot —
“Auto/Biography: Cold Cases”
— recently, and we’ve made it a
habit to try to watch one episode
W

most evenings.
Topics range widely. We came
across the series by way of
“Cold Cases,” which includes an
episode about the Yuba County
Five, a group of fi ve young men
who inexplicably diverted from
their intended driving route near
Chico, California, in February
1978 and ended up driving into
the snowy Sierras. The bodies of
four of the men were found a few
months later. The fi fth man has
not been seen since.
(“Cold Cases” also adds two
other hosts besides May and
Donahue.)

ould you believe it?
After a three-year
drought, Harry Styles’ third
solo record, “Harry’s House,”
is almost here, just in time for
summer.
The highly anticipated
follow-up to the pop musi-
cian’s Grammy-nominated
sophomore album, “Fine Line,”
releases May 20.
After listening to the
singer’s latest studio album
early and on repeat (for sci-
ence), we can confirm that
“Harry’s House” is chock-full
of summertime bops, jubi-
lant horn sections and lyrical
nods to L.A. — as well as
what appears to be a sonic
love letter to “Don’t Worry
Darling” director Olivia Wilde,
whom Styles is rumored to
be dating.
