    How do you "accidentally" release a bioweapon?

    On this episode, we travel to Plum Island to dig into the mysterious experiments and events that may have created the Montauk Monster. 👀 We dive into government conspiracy theories, alleged CIA involvement in bioweapons research, Operation Mongoose, African Swine Fever, Lyme disease, and so much more. You know Casey loves a good government conspiracy… just wait until she brings up the pigeons 😂 This one gets weird fast. What would you rate the Montauk Monster? https://www.easthamptonstar.com/villages/202073/gruesome-find-stirs-memories-montauk-monster https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plum_Island_(New_York)#:~:text=The%20center%20conducts%20research%20on,the%20research%20facility%20is%20restricted. “The Horrors of Plum Island l Hybrids, Human Experiments and Weaponized Killer Insects.” The Why Files.

    Cannibalism and Culinary Choices

    On this episode, we return to William T. Cox’s Fearsome Creatures of the Lumberwoods to learn about the Gumberoo—a bear-like cryptid that can only be killed by one thing… fire. 🔥 Like most of our conversations, this one somehow takes a side road into cannibalism and flesh pedestrians before Casey brings us back with another strange creature: the Nandi Bear. But is the Nandi Bear really a cryptid… or just a giant ground sloth? 👀 Join us as we dive into lumberjack legends, bizarre cryptids, and the questionable paths our conversations always seem to take 😂 What would you rate the Gumberoo and the Nandi Bear?

    Little Wild Men of the Woods

    In this episode, we dive into the strange world of Pukwudgies, exploring their origins, behavior, and the creepy encounters people have had with them. All while trying to convince Mackenzie not to run off into the woods to catch one 😂 https://www.native-languages.org/pukwudgie.htm https://homespunhaints.com/what-is-a-pukwudgie https://theportalist.com/what-is-a-pukwudgie https://newenglandfolklore.blogspot.com/2019/01/two-encounters-with-pukwudgies-in.html https://historymadereal105.substack.com/p/e-wah-chu-encounters-with-massachusetts https://indianahistory.org/blog/pukwudgies-and-where-to-find-them/mounds

    Whistle and Summon the Wampahoofus?

    On this episode, we’re talking about the Wampashoofus—a strange creature said to be half deer, half boar, roaming the mountains of Vermont. 🌲 The Wampashoofus is yet another legend born from lumberjack tales, and this one gets weird. It supposedly has legs that are two different lengths, brightly colored fur, and… somehow… a whistle on the end of its tail.. That last part is still confusing to me. Anyway, let us know: what would you rate the Wampashoofus?

    Come to Auntie Maria

    We kick things off picking our topic… and end up diving deep into the legend of La Llorona 🌙 From her tragic origins to the many versions of her story, we explore the Weeping Woman in all her haunting forms ghost, warning, and cultural icon. It gets eerie, emotional, and a little wild. https://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/entries/la-llorona https://blogs.loc.gov/folklife/2021/10/la-llorona-an-introduction-to-the-weeping-woman/ https://www.legendsofamerica.com/gh-lallorona/ https://www.britannica.com/topic/La-Llorona https://www.latimes.com/delos/story/2023-10-16/la-llorona-mexico-latin-america-horror-folklore

    Would you ride a sandworm from Dune?

    If you don’t want to hear about Mackenzie’s adventure into motherhood… rude 😂 but you can skip to 4 minutes in. This episode of Field Notes from the Unknown, we’re talking about Sinkhole Sam—the giant worm-like creature said to live in Big Sinkhole in Inman, Kansas. Of course, we take a few side roads along the way… from the worm in Beetlejuice to the giant sandworms of Dune… Anyway… what are your thoughts, and what would you rate Sinkhole Sam?

    A Pisces with Scoliosis

    We are heading to the sea today to visit the Gloucester Sea Serpent: a massive, undulating creature seen off Cape Ann with over 1,000 eyewitness accounts dating back to the 1600s.
