On February 15, 2014 Richard Simmons didn’t show up to teach the exercise class he had led for 40 years - and he hasn't been seen in public since.
Filmmaker Dan Taberski was both a regular at Slimmons exercise studio and a friend of Richard's when he disappeared. Now, Dan is trying to unravel the mystery - and more importantly, figure out who the beloved exercise guru really is - in the podcast Missing Richard Simmons .
The deeper Dan digs, the stranger it gets.
But does the team behind Missing Richard Simmons know how their series will end?! Find out in our Behind-the-Scenes interview.
