    Episode 14 - Who is Coming for Supper?

    Hey guys! I am here providing you to another dose of the weird. Today we are covering Dumb Suppers, and no I am not a rebellious teen trying to piss off their parent. I am talking about the Pagan ritual that was used to call forth spirits in a silent dinner. Oh it was also used to figure out who might be your future spouse! Fun!

    Join me as I walk through the history, guidelines, and mystery behind the Dumb Supper ritual!

    Episode 9-Carmen San-Desaurus

    Today's episode will be about all things dinosaurs. Well, at least a bit of how they became extinct and the reports of current dinosaurs lurking about. Got to get that Jurassic Park life experience. Well at least for some of these dinosaurs. Listen in as I talk about the famous sightings in Congo and the terrifying reports in Indonesia. That one especially will make you think twice of going into a dense, dark forest alone.
