Happy Halloween! For this holiday special, Ian covers a series of UFO abduction stories, and Liv inserts logic into each situation.

Also, if you stick around for the full episode, you'll find out what happens when Liv and Ian don't coordinate the rules of a drinking game ahead of time.

Happy Halloween, everybody!

In this one, Liv and Ian are joined by Dylan (aka Ian's best friend) while they talk about the tragedy of Port Royal in 1692. A Jamaican island is decimated by not only an earthquake, but also by the following tsunami. Ian also talks about the rich culture and pirate history of Port Royal.

Also, Liv rewrites a famous Kansas song. Dylan learns Captain Morgan was a real person. Ian insists drowning feels good.

In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a disaster in which public transportation in Shenyang, China, electrocuted passengers to death.

Also, Liv's guessing game is stellar. Ian unlocks a new achievement in soup.

In this one, Ian and Liv discuss an incident where over 50 exotic animals escaped their enclosures at a private residence, and were roaming free in the rural town of Zanesville, Ohio, in 2011. Among these animals were lions, bears, wolves, tigers, and other exotic animals that posed a threat to not only the citizens of Zanesville, but also to the members of law enforcement who responded to the incident.

Also, Liv forgets her birthday again. Ian embraces getting old.

In this one, Ian and Liv talk about an oil rig that drills into a salt mine beneath a lake, which then causes the lake to drain into the salt mine, dissolves the mine, and creates a giant vortex of water that massacres the surrounding land and sucks in everything in it's immediate vicinity. So that's a lot to unpack.

Also, Liv struggles with basic concepts of maritime travel. Ian battles a stink bug in the studio.

In this one, Liv's sister/Ian's cousin Alexa joins the podcast to talk about the time a beached whale was found dead in Oregon in 1970, and state workers tried using a thousand pounds of dynamite to blow up the whale's rotting corpse. Yes, you read that correctly. Anyone in the mood for sushi?

Also, Liv fantasizes about climbing dead whales. Alexa rebrands Hands Across America. Ian becomes a third wheel.

In this one, Ian and Liv discuss the myriad of ways a person can be killed by alcohol. More specifically, how a burning river of whiskey devastated the streets of Dublin in 1875. Fun fact: if you drink alcohol of a certain proof, you could be morbidly injured.

In this one, Ian and Liv talk about a bridge that collapsed in Dixon, Illinois, in 1873. Filled with people at the time of its demise, the Dixon Bridge collapse was responsible for the death and injuries of many citizens of Dixon. The bridge was later determined to be incredibly unsafe even before it was built, so what happened in history that allowed for the construction of the Dixon Bridge?

Also, Liv has a gift for Ian. Fashion and chivalry will kill you.
