In this episode, Nicole reads "true" Missing 411 stories, which unsurprisingly delves into tangents about Star Wars. This was recorded in October 2021. 

We're back! This episode was recorded in maybe October 2021?? Meghan tells the interesting tale of the Beast of Truro, which was very briefly mentioned in the 1997 hit movie "Men in Black." The creature, who killed a 100 cats, could be a mountain lion, a panther, a hyena, a dog, a pack of dogs, a fisherman, or something more sinister? Whatever it was, it was NOT a fox.

Nicole reads some "real" alien encounters. 

In this episode, Megan shares the history of Auras. In particular, she talks about former priest Charles Webster Leadbeater, who popularized the concept and held the incredible belief that "most men come from Mars but the more advanced men come from the Moon."

(This was recorded in February, where Meghan & Nicole were at the height of their "Star Wars" obsession). Nicole & Meghan also discuss Obiwan Kenobi fanfiction and the issues with being 5'2".

Nicole also discusses her distrust of Guillermo Del Toro and anyone who is too passionate about the Academy Award-winning film "The Shape of Water."

In this episode, Nicole discusses Star jelly, which is a gelatinous substance that seemingly appears from the sky. There have been reports of it moving and being toxic to people and pets. It is believed to either be an alien, jellyfish that live in the sky, or some sort of mold. In the middle ages -- which was an all-around wild time -- it was recommended to rub Star jelly into wounds. Please don't do that as tempting as it sounds.

After a super long hiatus, we are back! In this episode, Meghan talks all about past life regression through hypnosis. Just a quick note -- this episode was recorded back in November when the ridiculous 'Supernatural' series finale aired so Nicole talks quite a bit about that. Just a fair warning to everyone. Enjoy!

The Beast of Bray Road, known for his sightings in and around-- you guessed it-- Bray Road, in Wisconsin, may be intimidating but we think he's just a little nervous and hoping someone will let him in from the cold. Let him in!

This week, Nicole delves into the life of Arthur Conan Doyle and his belief in the supernatural and paranormal. Honestly, he lived the life we all wish we had, riding in hot air balloons and going on spiritual tours.

As an added bonus -- Meghan and Nicole reveal that they have a difficult time remembering the year 2017 and possibly have no concept of time at all.

In this episode, Meghan takes a brief look into the Malleus Maleficarum and the buck wild items within it. Heinrich Kramer was too invested in other people’s lives and especially witches, but honestly, we’re still wondering how he knew so much about witches in the first place.

In this week's episode, Nicole brings to the table a collection of claims from time travelers. What could they be here for? Some claim it's punishment and, well, we're not sure, but you can make your own judgement call.

If you cry constantly or really enjoy a nice pair of pants, this episode is everything you've been waiting for. Meghan recounts the tale of the Squonk, who can be found by following its puddles of tears, as well as the Fresno Nightcrawler, who may or may not just be a fashion icon strutting his stuff.

What do you do if you suddenly come down with a case of lycanthropy? Should you go to a friary? Find a kid with a stick?

This week, Meghan dives into the tangled web that is the Loch Ness Monster’s history, with appearances from a saint, a business man and his university graduate wife, and an actor/director/producer/con man—just to name a few. Is Nessie hanging out in Loch Ness? We hope so, but we’ll let you decide for yourself.

In this episode, Nicole tells the very stupid tales of three "haunted" dolls. Meghan and Nicole also delve into hysterics over a poorly designed book cover.

Happy Halloween!

This episode features weird rabbit-dog creatures, violent poltergeist activity, and the seventh president of the United States Andrew Jackson, so buckle up.

Nicole is dipping into the doppelganger phenomenon up to and including her own experiences! From a questionable school teacher to the dramatic life of Percy Shelley, we're learning not only about seeing doubles but also about the unusual habits of the Shelley family. Everyone keeps a loved one's heart in their desk, right?

In this episode, Meghan discusses the pseudoscience of ghost hunting equipment. Both Meghan and Nicole also discuss their lack of knowledge regarding science -- this will either be relatable or polarizing to our audience. Also, Thomas Edison makes a fun cameo for all our phonograph fans.

Behold the tale of the Loveland Frogmen! There have been numerous sightings of these bipedal frogs in Clermont County, Ohio from 1955 to 2016. These handsome guys are about 3 feet tall and may be able to control electricity through sticks which is super fun. The frogmen have been seen by a variety of folks including a lonely businessman, rightfully bullied 1970s cops, and a Pokemon Go player. If only we could all be so lucky.

In this week's episode, Meghan shares some of the lore behind Kappa. Hold on to your butts because these "very polite" little guys really want to meet you.

Some of these "antique" kits that will protect you from vampires may include silver bullets, wooden steaks, a mysterious serum, a painting of possums, chicken leg goblets, and a book about horrible ways to die for the low low price of a couple thousand dollars. What a steal. Also, we have a special treat for all our emo listeners -- bass player Charles Trippy of We The Kings makes a fun little cameo in the story.

Buckle up for a wild ride! This episode is all about Indrid Cold, aka The Grinning Man. This dude was a human-like alien who allegedly visited West Virginia in the 1960s and seemingly was desperate for friends. He also may or may not be still living in Cleveland, Ohio???

In this episode, Meghan discusses the spooky tale of the Flatwoods Monster, a red-eyed creature who terrified folks in West Virginia, much like our BFF, Mr. Mothman.
