Castles & Cryptids Alanna and Kelsey

This week, we had fun finding some other amazing animals, they may not all be psychic wonder horses, but damn are they wonderful!!

Kelsey keeps us up with the Koko shenanigans, you know like the Kardashians? Ok it's a stretch, but Koko reaches new heights in communication and very human traits, like ...being horny?? She's an enigma, like all of us!

To cap it off, Alanna tells some war stories of animal heros, like Unsinkable Sam, and two very, very good doggos.

Hey cryptic cuties, we thought it was about time we took it back to our roots, our Canadian roots that is. This time we bring to you 2 very interesting unsolved cases that couldn't be more different from each other. Kicking things off, Kelsey dives into a robbery that takes a surprising turn when the thieves return some of the items to prove they were the real robbers. Alanna shares the tragic tale of the babes in the woods, 2 unidentified children's remains, and the decades long search for answers. We hope you enjoy, recommend us to a friend (especially if their Canadian lol). Until next time, keep it cryptic!!

Ok, we could have called this episode a pseudoscience and a psychic horse, but I liked the alliteration so there we are. We love any fringe science, powerwe don't quite understand and stories about wild history with a dash of animal hijinks. This one has it all!
So grab your furry friends and a nice apple for two wild rides!
Kelsey covered the history of lie detector tests and their rise and fall in the courts and what we think of them today. We pick apart the science from the not- so science parts of the polygraph machine.
And Alanna comes in clutch with a 1920's story of a mind-reading mare from Richmond, Virginia. Could her spot-on predictions be truly a sixth sense? We sure wish we had her inside sport's knowledge, maybe she talked to the racehorses and got the edge...

Hope you enjoy, and, hey(or should I say neigh?), let us know, we aren't psychic! So drop us a rating and refer a friend! Keep it Cryptic!
