In the summer of 1983, Bedford, Indiana, was visited by a mysterious figure who left food, clothing, and handwritten letters at the doors of those in need. He left his gifts along with what would be his signature - a set of purple spray-painted footprints and called himself Captain Purple. For 43 years, his true identity has remained a mystery—until now?

“Are You Captain Purple?” is an investigative podcast documentary series that revisits this hometown legend with fresh leads, never-before-published notes, and interviews with those who were forever changed by his generosity. Led by Emmy-nominated journalist Nick Storm and Bedford native Derek Ingersoll, the podcast explores not only who Captain Purple was, but why he did what he did—shining a light on the power of kindness, compassion, and community.

Are You Captain Purple has quickly grown from a regional mystery into a nationally recognized independent podcast. The series was featured by Apple Podcasts, helping propel it onto the Apple Podcasts charts, where it climbed as high as No. 13 among the Top 100 Series and into the Top 40 in True Crime.

The podcast has also been discussed and featured by USA Today, the Louisville Courier Journal, iHeartRadio, Bloomington Herald-Times, Indianapolis media and other outlets, generating coverage well beyond the Bedford, Indiana community where the story began.
