The Zodiac Cipher Hoax: Why the Killer's Last Code is a Lie

Was the Zodiac Killer a cryptographic genius who left behind a final, unsolvable puzzle... or just a madman who scribbled nonsense he couldn't even solve himself?This podcast cracks open the infamous case of the Zodiac Killer, but we're not just looking at the crimes—we're decoding the mind behind them. We dive deep into the twisted world of the Zodiac ciphers, the taunting puzzles that have haunted investigators and amateur sleuths for over 50 years. You'll learn the stunning story of the Z340 cipher, a complex code that took a team of experts with supercomputers 51 years to break, using a dizzying mix of transposition and substitution.But here's where the real mystery begins. We expose the fierce debate raging in the codebreaking community: are the remaining unsolved ciphers, like the infamous Z13 and Z32, the ultimate challenge from a mastermind? Or are they an elaborate hoax—a jumble of symbols with no message, deliberately designed to be too short to ever be solved, ensuring the Zodiac Killer's final secret would be kept forever?We explore the evidence for both sides, from the sophisticated cryptanalysis used on the solved codes to the frustrating mathematical reality that the shorter ciphers could have infinite solutions. This is the ultimate cold case puzzle, a battle between genius and chaos.So, what do you think? Genius or hoax? Subscribe now and share this with your favorite armchair detective.
