First of all, HOLY SHIT AUSTRALIA! Hi, hello! Wow, we were not expecting that at all and we try to update the little more info that is out there, but we promise were checking in on it.

Well, sometimes they get classified as cases of mass hysteria and we're going to talk about some of the strangest instances of this happening. Please tell us which one is the creepiest for you and if you think meowing nuns is as terrifying as Alexa feels it is. Or are you team Ella and just think it's hilarious?

Talking about the Death penalty is sensitive, as people are affected from both sides in horrible ways. The families of violent criminals that wish they could have helped, and innocent people who were caught in the crosshairs of a murderer. In this episode we talk about how America treats the most violent offenders, and if there is a better way?

Even though it's nowhere near the night before Christmas, the boys spring into action, tear open the shutters, and throw up the sash in an effort to look into Window Areas. 

Late in the episode, I do believe that those in the recording session could actually smell Jim's pea-brain frying as he attempted to perform aeronautical speed and distance calculations.

So, heave a leg over the sill, but mind your muddy boots on the curtains as you do so, and journey with us through the mysterious portals known as Window Areas.
