  • 72: History's Mysteries pt.3: Outside Oakville
    Sep 25 2024

    A special guest! Jacob, friend of the pod, join us with a special story. "Why did it rain blobs in Oakville?" That is a very good question. One we will attempt to answer, or at least speculate on. Either way we can promise you were are having a good time and, well, we laughed. Enjoy!

    P.S. Maia had too much Elk Creek Water and mixed up Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic - Prokaryotes are the ones without mitochondria.

  • 71: History's Mysteries pt.2: A Soviet Secret
    Sep 18 2024

    "What happened at the Dyatlov Pass?" Is one of the 20th centuries greatest historical mysteries. How could so many experienced, healthy, and prepared young people have passed away like they did? And perhaps even more pressing, what happened to their bodies? In this week's episode, Maia leads Grant throughout some of the theories of the Dyatlov Pass Incident. From the events leading up to the final night, to the fall out. Together, we explore this Soviet secret.

    Our longest episode yet and we ... won't be doing this again.
