    The Sinking of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald

    As certified Midwesterners living in the Great Lakes region, we couldn't let the 50th anniversary of the sinking of the S.S. Edmund Fitzgerald pass without dedicating an episode to her (we're pretty sure they'd kick us out if we did). Because despite being one of the most famous shipwrecks of all time, the exact reason for the loss of the Mighty Fitz to the icy depths of Lake Superior remains a tragic, but fascinating, mystery. Was the great ship cursed from the get-go due to her tainted, bad-luck launch? Did she break apart at the surface or slam into the bottom? Why did Captain McSorley never send out a distress call? In this episode, we discuss all of this and more. ** WE WROTE A BOOK!

    El Chupacabra: The Internet's First Cryptid

    In this episode, we're digging into the legend of the chupacabra: part horror movie, part tabloid frenzy, and part… sick dog!? From Puerto Rico to Texas, we separate the monster myths from the mange-y reality. Along the way, we’ll uncover how pop culture, conspiracy theories, and some unlucky livestock gave birth to one of the strangest cryptids of the 20th century. ** WE WROTE A BOOK!

    The Phoenix Lights

    On March 13, 1997, thousands of people across Arizona saw strange lights in the sky. They became known as the Phoenix Lights and remain one of the most-documented UFO sightings in US history. But what really happened in the desert that night to convince so many people they'd witnessed something otherworldly? (Hint: it's never aliens) ** Video of the first v-shaped formation of lights: https://youtu.be/_JATvJNjD6s?t=81 Video of the second set of hovering/falling lights (which, upon watching again, really just look like they're turning on and off "mysteriously" thanks to 1997 camcorder technology): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvKLeaPWPyw ** WE WROTE A BOOK!

    The Roswell Incident

    In this episode, we break down the details of what became one of the most famous UFO incidents to ever occur. Initially dismissed (and accepted by the public) in 1947 as a weather balloon, Roswell would rocket to fame over 30 years later when a former Air Force intelligence officer came forward to say that the whole thing was a cover-up for a crashed alien spaceship. We're here to tell you that there actually was a cover-up at Roswell, but not for the reasons the ufology community believes... (We were a little wordy in our intro for this episode, so if you'd like to skip it, the Roswell discussion starts at ~15:00 for those listening with ads and ~13:40 for those listening without) ** WE WROTE A BOOK!
