Mummies, fossils, and casts, oh my! This episode covers some of the various ways the human body can be preserved, both intentionally and unintentionally. From Egyptian mummies to modern science exhibits, we'll explore some of the weird science that can keep us around for longer than usual.

Whew, prepare for a ranty episode! Ley lines are a truly fascinating theory about the way energy, electricity, and gravitational forces travel through the earth. There's a lot of different ideas for how they work, why they exist, and how best to find them.

Weeping women are one of the storytelling archetypes that seem to appear in legends, folk tales, and mythologies across cultures all over the world.

This episode explores some different versions of the weeping women.

The Malleus Maleficarum, or the 'Hammer of Witches', was a book from which much of the chaos and hysteria during the witch trials stemmed.

Way back in Victorian London, before Jack the Ripper made his reputation, mysterious and pervy Spring-Heeled Jack was lurking. He was a slap-happy (literally), overly handsy guy with a weird sense of humor. This episode covers some of his attacks and a few theories on who or what he is.

This episode is short one because of audio issues, but its a really interesting, sciencey, conspiracy-theory-style topic so hopefully it's still juicy enough. 

Dicyanin dye, supposedly used to see auras, is the center of a pretty massive hoax. Auras, however, go beyond that, and this episode covers a bit of both.
