Spirits, Oddities & Mysteries Brandon and Ali Tutor

Brandon and Ali tackle the Smiley Face Killer and have your questioning the overall complexity of your very existence; among other fun little tidbits. 
Correction: it's "The Happy Face Killer"... I'd correct the name of the episode, but it will end up confusing people searching for it off advertisements. In my defense, I finished editing this around 3am.

Brandon and Ali discuss the unusual circumstances surrounding the Sodder Family; their missing children, a strange fire, and what appears to be a cover-up.  Then, Brandon attempts to essentially melt your brain once again, as he introduces Dino-birds from a different perspective.  
Corrections: We realized the math was off by 10 years. 55+20+2 not 65+20+2... and the word we were looking for was Hypothesis.
