Ep. 179 - UC Berkeley

The University of California, Berkeley is a research university at its heart. Many discoveries and innovations have their origins at this university. From earthquake detection devices to nutrition to deep sea diving chemicals to prevent the bends to the Atomic Bomb to biotech and biofuels, all of these inventions were developed at UC Berkeley. The university was founded back in the 1800s and has played witness to decades of history. It is one of the top schools in America and in the world. The university has known its share of controversy and although the university most certainly does not embrace this, it is quite haunted as well. Join us as we discuss the history and hauntings of UC Berkeley. The Moment in Oddity was suggested by Teresa Slaven and features Centralia and This Month in History features Galileo discovering the moons of Jupiter. Our location was suggested by and we had research assistance from Kat.
