Two Towns Over

We finish our journey down the Stephen King/John Lennon rabbit hole with a look at some of the writings of the man who created the conspiracy, Steven Lightfoot. But it quickly became obvious that what we were dealing with was a man who was mourning the loss of someone he cared about and became untethered. So what starts as a humorous look at conspiratorial ramblings turns into an earnest discussion on the dangers of parasocial relationships.

We return to the second part of Tommy's story, which takes us to that cold night outside the Dakota Apartment building in New York City. Stephen King is set to follow through on his promise, but a change of plans at the last minute forces another ability to emerge, and a new assassin comes into play.

We're going to another dimension. A world beyond sight and sound. In this reality, Stephen King actually did kill John Lennon. Friend of the show Tommy researched the story and gave us the record of how it happened.

This episode is a work of fiction. We in no way think that this is actually what happened.

Audio Note!! For some reason, Josh has a faint echo. Unfortunately, we record two episodes at a time, which means next week's episode will have it. It's not bad, but it's there.

This week, we embark on a journey into the strange conspiracy theory of one man: Stephen Lightfoot. His theory is that the narrative that Mark David Chapman was the gunman who assassinated John Lennon is pure propaganda, and that the true killer was none other than the king of horror: Stephen King. This week, we look at the conspiracy and the actual murder of Lennon

This week, Cyndi comes on board to help Rubin and Don tell the tale of the Flying Dutchman. A ghost ship known far and wide across the seven seas as an omen of dangers and death. They also look at two stories of maritime disaster: First, they look at the Edmund Fitzgerald, made famous by Canadian troubadour Gordon Lightfoot. Then they look at the most famous ghost ship in history: The Mary Celeste, a ship found adrift in the Atlantic with no one aboard and no explanation as to their whereabouts. It's a pirate's life this week.

This week, Rubin and Don are joined by Cyndi as Josh takes a sabbatical for his birthday. She joins them in a discussion over one of the most enduring legends in history: Atlantis. Where is it? What is it? How did it sink? They also discuss some of the more "out there" beliefs involving the lost civilization.

This week, Josh takes the writing reins with a few stories that are too strange to be true, but somehow are. From Napoleon getting the killer rabbit treatment a la Monty Python to Shirley Temple actually being a thirty-three-year-old woman in her heyday, Josh brings us some amusing tales. He even included one that is not true, and it's up to you to decide which it is.

This week, we return to our roots and take it old school. The Appalachian region of America is overflowing with cryptids and creepy legends, and this week, we're looking at a few of them. From the Wampus Cat to the Grafton Monster, we discuss the cryptids that keep you up at night and make leveling up in Fallout 76 fun.

This week, we discuss the initial search and rescue operation that quickly became a recovery mission. We also look at the findings of the investigation into what happened and talk about how, much like Lovecraft said: Nature couldn't care less about you

This week, we look at the dream of one man; Stockton Rush. A man so blinded by hubris that he believed that he could voyage to the wreck of the Titanic using a prototype submarine made out of carbon fiber, and his determination to do it despite everyone telling him it was a death trap.
