What other band in history has had as weird and batshit a history as Black Sabbath? Other than some of the groups from the Scandinavian Black Metal scene, very few. Trust us. We start a three-part series on the Lords of Darkness that invented metal and came from very humble beginnings. We talk about Ozzy's time in prison, Tony's hand accident, Anton LeVay's San Francisco parade, and of course, DRUGS. Hope you enjoy! Wheeeeeeeee

Ever wanted to impress that big tiddy goth in psych class? Well, here's a not as famous Edgar Allen Poe work to intrigue with.

Guess again. Buckle up for an episode that might hit a little too close to home.

Here's the second and final part of our series on the Yeti! This episode we discuss some interesting theories including bears, neanderthals, and, well, aliens. Nothing is solved and we goof off even more, but hopefully you still find it informative! Enjoy!

There's oil in them there Yeti bones.

Learn about the history of Mt. Everest, a strange event involving actor Jimmy Stewart, and a bit about the mysterious Barun Valley. Also, this is part 1 of 2.
