In this celebratory episode, Andy and Craig mark a major milestone and bring you the weird news from around the globe. From a haunted Italian island to a mysterious missing-persons triangle, no bizarre stone is left unturned.

• A Milestone Reached: The Wyrdo's celebrate reaching 500 subscribers on YouTube and thank their loyal listeners and Substack supporters.
• Anxiety and Fear: Craig confesses his "Frank Turner" anxiety about the ever-growing list of weird topics to research, while Andy questions whether he would brave a haunted location alone.
• Creepy Islands and Disappearing People: We delve into the sinister history of Poveglia Island, where a YouTuber spent a night surrounded by the ghosts of plague and mental patients. Plus, we explore the Bennington Triangle, a place in rural Vermont where five people vanished between 1945 and 1950. We discuss the strange circumstances surrounding the disappearances of the Bennington Five, including a man who vanished from a bus, an eight-year-old boy who disappeared from a truck, and a woman whose body was found miles away with no cause of death.
• Strange Theories and Cryptids: The hosts explore various theories on what happened to the Bennington Five, from Native American curses to UFOs and the legendary Bennington Monster, a local Bigfoot-like creature.
• Future Tales: The Wyrdo's tease a future episode on the Alaska Triangle, a region with a similarly high rate of disappearances.
• Strange Tangents: The hosts go off on some very weird tangents, discussing a US Army Secretary's claim of a soldier on the moon, a strange strawberry-feather star, and mysterious radio pulses from Antarctica.
