Episode 40: The Kecksburg UFO Incident Mar 29, 2022

Show notes

On December 9, 1965, a mysterious and shocking image streaked across the skies from Ontario to Kentucky. Hundreds of reports flooded into radio and police stations describing a bright fireball at just above treetop level. Ultimately, reports described a crash landing in the woods outside Kecksburg, PA. In an era of intense Soviet-induced paranoia, was this a prime example of mass hysteria? Was it an alien craft, or was it a pure and simple case of the US government covering its blatant disregard for international treaties?

WAS FROM VENUS OR ON ITS WAY THERE?

Episode 39 Maritime Mysteries Part One: The Ivan Vassili Mar 22, 2022

Show notes

This week, we dive into the deep end of mystery with our first foray into a world of nautical nightmare. The Ivan Vassili was a Russian steam freighter that was conscripted at the onset of the Russo-Japanese war. It’s brief history of service would be marked by paranormal encounters and incredible tragedy. Was the ship cursed? Was it haunted? Was it just the least lucky ship of all time? Regardless, it would go down in history as one of the most dreaded vessels in all of military history. We know one thing for sure.

Fireside Chats: Appalachia and Academic Rigor with Heather Moser Mar 18, 2022

Show notes

This week, we had the pleasure of sitting down with Heather Moser. Heather is a writer, a classics professor, a top tier researcher for Small Town Monsters, and the host of The Lore You Know podcast. As a fan of basically everything that she does, this was a big get for me, but at the end of the day she’s just a brilliant and charming person with some very important insights about best practices for Fortean research. We discuss her academic background and they influence of that on her current work, incidences of moral panic throughout history, and the state of Fortean investigation and research today! Also…it was just awesome to find someone willing to nerd out about the joys of research with me for a half hour. Enjoy.

Episode 38 - The Varginha Alien Encounter Mar 15, 2022

Show notes

In January of 1996, a series of sightings and encounters struck the city of Varginha, Brazil. Reports of cigar-shaped crafts, diminutive alien creatures, and run-ins with the Men in Black would surge over the city in the following weeks, culminating in an encounter story that went nationwide on Fantastico. After the story aired, news stations and papers were inundated with reports of aliens all over the city. Rumors of government coverups increased tension in the city, but also led to an incredible surge in tourism! Go there! See for yourself!
