Most of our life is spent looking for things. Companionship, security, even our lost keys. But above all of that is our search for answers, and the way human beings have tried to find them has lead to all manner of frightening situations.

Episode 127: Tipping the Scales

If you flip through the pages of history long enough, you'll eventually run into stories about life out of balance, and how something—fate or chance or something otherworldly—has stepped in to make it right.

Home might very well be what you make it, but it's not always about beautiful decorations and comfortable furnishings. Sometimes the places we live take on elements of our own personality. Even after we've moved on, those pieces remain behind, like echoes of another time—echoes that can still be felt today.

Human ambition has led us to some amazing achievements, and taken us to unexplored places. But it has also lured us into places where there is a lot more fear and danger than we are used to, and the stories that have grown out of that world have left the world a richer—and more frightening—place.
