Buckle up as this week Shannon takes Emma and special guest Caroline to the waters of Japan where there may be the remnants of a lost civilization. Is the Yonaguni Monument truly a manmade structure swallowed by the seas? Is it a natural rock formation that is easily geologically explained? Or was it aliens?! Whatever the answer, it’s turtles all the way down, and we’re here to talk about it. And plenty else, like the Bone Shaman’s college days and our new girl group, The Vile Vortices. Jump in and join the chaos!

Buckle on in, everyone, as Shannon takes us on James Dean’s last ride in the car that so many now believe to be cursed. Dean may have been an adrenaline junkie, but was his tragic death fated from his first look at the Spyder, Little Bastard? And could Little Bastard, and every component part, really be cursed? Or were the reckless drivers behind the wheel to blame? No one can know for sure, as most of the car has disappeared to time. So, hop on in and enjoy the ride as we explore all the possibilities this curse has to offer.

This week the OG Besties are back, baby! And it’s Pride Month, so Shannon brings us the story of Marsha P. Johnson’s beautiful life and mysterious death.

However ,the circumstances surrounding their death are, in our official ruling, sus. So join us this week to hear about Marsha’s impact on the world and why Emma is actually Ron DeSantis’s worst nightmare.

Shannon’s still on vacation, so the kids have come to play (and swear, fair warning)! Greg is BACK and fills us in about the Tennessee-ness of it all while Emma tells the story of the haunted Ryman Auditorium. Built by its namesake, ushered through its golden age by a woman determined to make the name memorable, and revived by the city it sits within, the Ryman’s history is rich and lyrical. The Mother Church of Country music hosted the Grand Ole Opry and names like Elvis, Hank Williams, Teddy Roosevelt, and Helen Keller. But do the souls of those who shone bright on its stage still linger today? Come find out amidst the chaos this week with these two boneheads!

This week Emma fills us in on the tragic story of Ruth Marie Terry, the Lady of the Dunes. While the miracle of DNA analysis has led to her identification, we still don’t know what, nor who, happened to her. To diffuse the tension of this unsolved case, your Nonna Shannon and her neighbor Doris are here to talk cookies, rag on bad men, and provide some much needed grandmotherly love. Anyone with information about Ruth or Guy Muldavin and their time in New England during the 1970s should contact the Massachusetts State Police at 1-800-KAPTURE or email them at [email protected].

Emma may not be a pizza girl, but she’s serving up some “sorry’s” this week telling the terrifying tale of Harold the Haunted Doll. Is he actually haunted? Or is he cursed by the souls of five beings and a demon inside him? If he’s truly the cause of such unrest to those who see him (and poke fun) we’d advise making sure your home is properly guarded against evil. Just to be on the safe side. Werk it, monarch, and join us for a splendidly spooky time!
