POST-SOVIET PARA-JOURNALISM & URBAN LEGENDS - "TA DA COMRADE"

from KOOKS, CRANKS, AND ICONOCLASTS! · host mike lucht

Here's that companion piece I was talking about in the other episode. This one covers (much like the title says) post-Soviet "Para-journalism", urban legends, as well as "urbex legends". It's a mixed bag of stories about abandoned Soviet bioweapons labs, weird physics defying anomalies, fish-man surgical experiments (I ain't hardly bullshittin' neither, check dat shit out!), Kozyrev Mirrors, and a whole bunch of other assorted high strangeness.
