Krysta, Laura and Dean acknowledge that due to a mistake on Dean's part, they will not be joined by author Gerald Rice and they get down to discussing New Jersey's most famous cryptid, the Jersey Devil. But first, Krysta hips us to some weird facts about deserts! Then we discuss the strange origin story of the Jersey Devil...how according to folklore it is the 13th child of Mrs. Leeds! We discuss the Pine Barrens, it's ecosystem and some famous folks who encountered the Jersey Devil. We discuss a few of the more famous sightings and some potential things skeptics say people are seeing. We take a few stabs at summarizing all we learned before saying our goodbyes! A must listen show!
