Ep. 187: The Montauk Monster

In July or 2008, the hairless, bloated body of a mysterious animal washed up on the shores of East Hampton, Long Island. Was it a shell-less turtle, an escaped mutated creature from Plum Island, or something entirely new and unknown? This week, Hannah tells Katy about the Mantauk Monster, and the mystery behind the unidentifiable carcass. The girls talk animal skulls, Viking funerals, conspiracy theories, and more! Plus, we all get to reminisce about what we were doing during the summer of 2008 (almost definitely a better summer than the Montauk Monster was having.) So pour the drinks, and join us for this (technically) Unsolved Mystery!Links for A;ware:https://www.a-wareclothing.com/abouthttps://www.facebook.com/a.wareclothingllc?mibextid=LQQJ4dSources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montauk_Monsterhttps://web.archive.org/web/20130927191628/http://www.foxnews.com/story/2008/08/01/montauk-monster-mystery-gets-more-mysterious/https://web.archive.org/web/20131011054419/http://www.cryptomundo.com/cryptozoo-news/mm-newpic/https://web.archive.org/web/20081014005501/http://hamptons.plumtv.com/blog/whats_going/paging_darwin_montauk_%E2%80%9Csea_monster%E2%80%9D_real_or_photoshop_phantasyhttps://web.archive.org/web/20090302043438/http://www.hoax-slayer.com/montauk-monster.shtmlhttps://allthatsinteresting.com/montauk-monsterhttps://www.easthamptonstar.com/villages/202073/gruesome-find-stirs-memories-montauk-monsterhttps://observer.com/2018/07/montauk-monster-true-story-gawker-richard-lawson/https://www.gawker.com/5030531/dead-monster-washes-ashore-in-montaukhttps://www.danspapers.com/2018/07/montauk-monster-10-years-later/https://www.discovermagazine.com/the-sciences/science-what-else-reveals-the-secret-of-the-montauk-monsterhttps://www.gawker.com/5278112/has-the-montauk-monster-mystery-been-solvedhttps://www.gawker.com/5280493/the-latest-montauk-monster-theory-a-compleat-accountingSupport the showFollow us @thetaleswetellpodcast on Facebook and Instagram, or thetaleswetellpodcast.comSupport us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/thetaleswetellpodcast?Click here for merch!
