What do you get when you combine a nerd and an animal enthusiast? You get a podcast that takes you on a wild ride from the Scottish Highlands to a galaxy far, far away; into Greek epics and back to modern "reality".
(Well, you either get that, or a horrifying chimera, Whoa, Nessie!)
Following hosts Amelia and Jade as they explore the mysterious world of mythological beasts, cryptids, and fantastical creatures on a quest to discover the truth. Cryptozoology may be a pseudoscience, but that won't keep them from becoming the best darn pseudoscientists they can be!

Customer Reviews
Delightful!
A wonderful stream-of-consciousness podcast with lighthearted exploration of cryptids. Even when the subject gets serious, the duo always have a laugh or witty remark on hand, making learning fun and engaging. Good for people who love the paranormal but not the ever-present suspenseful music that follows most of these stories- I can listen to this in the dead of night and still drift off peacefully. Hope there will be more soon!
Taught me most things I know about Godzilla
It looks like this series is on hiatus, but I'm hoping that it comes back. The episodes that are there are good quality and the conversational way that the hosts present the information makes for a mostly lighthearted listen with occasional serious tangents. I vaguely knew that the Godzilla films related to nuclear war, but had no idea to what extent. That episode has been my favorite so far. Well worth checking out, especially if you're like me and always looking for more fun cryptid/monster podcasts.
Very Entertaining!
I am very surprised that a podcast this entertaining has so little exposure! It’s a great show though! Keep it up!!
