Bobby Fuller: Who Killed Bobby Fuller?

September 22, 2026 · 47 min

Show notes

How did Bobby Fuller die? Ask four different people and you’ll get four different answers. Wikipedia will tell you that Bobby’s death was an “accident”. The LAPD will tell you Bobby committed suicide. YouTube will tell you a lot of things with big, dumb sensationalized thumbnails, but in the end, won’t really tell you anything at all. The rock ‘n’ roll history books––all but one anyway––will tell you that Bobby Fuller’s death is an unsolvable mystery. They’re wrong. Bobby Fuller’s death is completely solvable, and by the time you finish listening to this episode you’ll know exactly how Bobby Fuller died, who killed him, and why.
