Episode 049 - April Fools' Day
Today’s episode starts off with another tale from Dan’s trip to Ireland years ago. He just doesn’t know how to let things go does he?! 🙄 And then Madeline and Dan analyze some of the worst - or best, depending on who you ask - April Fools’ Day pranks over the years. Get ready to laugh, cringe, and even scream. Some of these pranks go a wee bit too far…

Episode 048 - The Mall of America
There is SO much to unpack in today’s episode…things are crazy as hell right right off the bat when Madeline finds out that she sleeps in a VERY concerning and downright creepy manner. And things just unravel further from there, as Madeline and Dan incorrectly try to guess when an iconic Minnesota institution was erected. And of course, no one expected that location to be haunted. But here we are! Oh boy….

Episode 047 - Total Eclipse Of The Pod
As Madeline gears up for a family trip into the heart of Indiana, a large chunk of the continental US prepares for the upcoming solar eclipse. On April 8th, 2024 North America will become a prime viewing location for this incredible phenomenon. If you want to experience it in all its glory, draw a straight line from Mazatlán, Mexico to Montreal, Canada and you’ll be able to visualize the path of totality. Be careful though, as strange things are rumored to occur during an eclipse…from poisoned food to possible pregnancy complications, does the eclipse possess unique powers? Listen and find out.

Episode 046 - Would You Survive a Horror Film?
As we get excited for the drunken debauchery of St. Paddy’s Day, Dan shares some fun memories from his time in Ireland. From ghost tours to a familial curse, his best judgement was not on display… Madeline then presents us with a compelling quiz to see just how well each of us would fare if we found ourselves in a real-life horror film. Best of all it originates from a BuzzFeed article, so you know it was crafted with the utmost attention to detail and edited for accuracy. 🤣

Customer Reviews
Fantastic! 🙌
I love this podcast. I live in MN and it’s fun to hear stories right out of our state! The hosts are hilarious, but that doesn’t take away from their research and delivery of the information. All around an entertaining, fun time!
What fun!
The theme song is pretty, tinkling little bells and sets the tone nicely for what's to come.The two hosts have great rapport, you can tell they're real friends.
They're local to the Twin Cities so it's fun to hear them talk about local stuff. I especially liked the episode about mobsters in Minneapolis (a special interest of mine). Also the haunted U of MN was cool too. I'd like to hang out with them, I'm sure you will too.
