Welcome to Nothing to See Hear, a podcast starring three friends with PHDs in bullshit who are ready to spew nonsense over the airwaves every week. Hannah is here to break Amanda today as she tells the wackadoodle story of Gef the Talking Mongoose. If you haven’t heard of this cryptid/urban legend/totally real Mongoose, you’re in for a treat.
