As the calendar flies through February and roars into March, many of our New Year’s Resolutions start to fade faster than snow melting.

Are the good old days truly the good old days? Happy New Year! and what better topic for a new year than that one time the world ended? Everyone surely remembers how the world ended in 2012 as predicted by the Mayan calendar. It sure seemed like it was ending during COVID lockdowns in 2020. But hey, we're all still here in 2024! Let's celebrate and join our hosts as they sift through the prognosticators of the past to learn more about the times when the world was definitely, without a doubt, going to end. We'll party with the Essenes in the Mediterranean, learn from Martin Luther and his flatulent woodcuts, and listen while William Miller teaches us about the Great Disappointment. Then we head east to the Dami Mission and circle back on other ridiculous forecasters of doom, including the legendary, self-proclaimed Jeron "The Amazing Criswell" King.

Look, the doom-and-gloom crowd is bound to be right at some point... but for now, we can all roll our eyes and chuckle at the man in the sandwich board "the end is nigh!" sign yelling prophecies into a megaphone.

I mean hey, someone is bound to be right about the world ending at some point... right?

Well, it's time to brace yourself for a Christmas ho-ho haunting! Transport yourself to the eerie streets of old-timey London, where every corner conceals a shadow, and every creak sends a shiver down the town's collective spine. But hold on tight, because when one fearless individual takes matters into their own hands and shoots the haunting apparition, this chilling tale takes a shocking twist - the ghost begins to bleed. This Christmas, prepare for heart-pounding suspense and bone-chilling mystery as joy and cheer take a backseat.

Are the good old days truly the good old days? Today, we spend an hour wading through the many floods of history, searching for the best quaff to quench our thirst for knowledge. Then, we were suddenly overtaken by a tidal wave... of beer?! Or do you prefer a wild wave of whiskey? Maybe trudging through a morass of molasses is more your speed? Our exploration of history's more bizarre and odd floods includes stops in London, Dublin, and Boston. As we return to the 22nd century we explore a cheesy situation in Norway, a juicy stop in Russia, and end with an unexpected red river in Portugal.  As we towel off, we contemplate the lessons learned on this week's adventures.
