This week we reference the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise a record number of times, and in order to do so we turn an eye towards the second best nautically themed legend of all time (the first of course being Captain Jack Sparrow and his rowdy gang of misfits) THE FLYING DUTCHMAN! From Wagner to Spongebob and back again we take a look at the legends origins, how it was solidified into the public consciousness, and finally the shocking true encounters of the dreaded phantom ship on the high seas.

In this episode we explore the many different problems that you, our lovely listener friends, have gone through in your life. And man, some of them are intense. Some of them are funny. Most of them aren't. We want to thank each and every person who wrote in, sharing their experience and blessing us with their stories. Also, it's three hours long, so there's that as well. Happy Halloween!

Join us as we reach PEAK derailment discussing the final fate of the Dybbuk box and how it involves on of our favorite musicians, a talented young whippersnapper named Post Malone and a guy who puts WAAAAAAAAAY too much gel in his hair. We also cover the supernatural origin of the box, or better said the entity which resides within it to this day. Racist Nazis, Pop Stars, and more intersect in the most surprising ways that no one could have anticipated. We hope you'll enjoy.

This week we explore the folklore of the Dybbuk, a unique entity in Hebrew Mysticism, a disembodied human soul too wicked to be allowed to enter the afterlife, but unable to find refuge in this mortal plane. They seek a home in the bodies of unwitting victims, a parasite of the soul, whether human or animal. However, if needs be, they may take up place in something else. Some sort of a inorganic vessel, an object that can house the evil soul until a new host becomes available. In a story that starts before the second world war and continues even now, cursing pop stars and penniless immigrants alike, we see the Dybbuk moving even in this day. We hope you'll enjoy.

This week, Sam becomes the very thing he swore to destroy as he irrationally and angrily denies the Mandela Effect. Also, we learn what Deja Vu ACTUALLY is and have a brief discussion on Parallel Universes and why they probably can't be used to explain away everything. Also, special guest star: Caitie Fredrickson telling us her own Mandela Effect story which we refuse to believe. We hope you'll enjoy.

This week we finish up our two parter of the first part  on the gulf breeze UFO sightings with our good friend Rob from Our Strange Skies. Join us as we watch Ed Walters descend further into madness, as he continues to dodge the worst abduction attempts we’ve ever seen. We hope you’ll enjoy!

This week we dive into one of the most insane and also most compelling accounts of alien contact to grace the modern age. Beyond a simple light in the sky, or even a full blown extra-terrestrial kidnapping, Ed and Frances Walters experienced, over the course of years, repeated contact with what must be acknowledged as just the worst the Aliens had to offer. Bungled abductions, photographic confirmation, and a grand total of over 20 different encounters with the same entities have turned the Gulf Breeze UFO case into one of the most enduring and interesting of our time.

This week we conclude our series on the Jinn of legend by examining stories of their interactions with humans throughout the ages. Starting in classical Arabia, winding our way through the war on terror, and finally ending our journey at an oasis, a haunted outpost in the unforgiving heat of the desert, we will examine how the stories of the Jinn have in some ways changed with the times, and how in other ways they have, terrifyingly, stayed the same. We hope you’ll enjoy

This week we explore the lore and legend associated with one of the most unique magical beings of all time, the Jinn, or Genie as many of us know it as. We will explore it's origin in pre-islamic arabia, its codification as truth in the Quran, and it's transformation into the big, blue, vessel for Robin William's soul that we know it to be today. We hope you'll enjoy!

This week we cover an obscure bit of Californian Folklore, the Dark Watchers. Listen as Sam asks Jason if he's familiar with all sorts of Californian things, and the two of them bond over the atrocities of John Steinbeck, while trying to get to the bottom of stories that have to do with human shadows, unaccompanied by humans, living in the mountains of Big Sur. We hope you'll enjoy!
