#283 Hy-Brasil The PHANTOM Island - Is Atlantis Confirmed? Oct 04, 2022

Show notes

Irish folklore is full of magical and fantastical tales. Whether it's banshee, giants, leprechauns or phantom islands, we tend to think of them as myth - evidence of a beautiful oral history but nothing physical. But if they are only myth, why does the legendary land of Hy-Brasil appear on dozens of maps from around the world dating back to the 14th century? Could it be real? Could it be evidence of Atlantis? There's only one way to find out - time for Kit and Rory to investigate.

Wandering New Orleans at night there are many dangers; dark street corners, an infinite supply of whiskey, 24/7 nightclubs, but but the greatest danger of all is much less widely known - the Rougarou.

#277 Space Acorn of DEATH - The Kecksburg UFO Incident Aug 23, 2022

Show notes

School, bullies, learning to tie your shoelaces - being a kid is hard enough without also accidentally witnessing one of the 20th century's most shocking and convincing UFO landings. Unfortunately for Nadine and Nevan Kalp, this life was forced on them when they saw a giant acorn scream across the sky on fire, landing in their back garden. What would follow was a storm of police and military interest, and potentially one of the biggest coverups in This Paranormal Life history.

When we think about the many battles that have taken place between humans and aliens, we typically think about ray guns, laser beams and spaceships firing death canons... but back in the 1940's, a much more 'hands-on' battle took place. What did these mysterious visitors want? Was it really an alien or did the locals of Gateshead actually kill a small man? Time to investigate...
