S1 E12: Cryptozoology 101

There are creatures here on Earth so amazing and bizarre that throughout history they were once thought to be "myths" by scientists. Creatures so strange that the stories about them were quickly dismissed as "tall tales" villagers would share with expeditionists around a campfire. Creatures that are now so familiar to us that it's almost impossible for us to believe they were one time thought to be legends or fairytales. Did you know the Gorilla is an example of this? This week our hosts WOOD...

S1 E3: The '89 Batman Episode

There were a lot of important events that happened in 1989 - but for WOODY BROWN and TYLER BENCE, the release of Tim Burton's BATMAN was one of the most memorable and monumental for them both.
