S6 E24: The Kentucky Flood Goblins

Something strange emerged from the floodwaters of Eastern Kentucky...

And what witnesses described sounds like something straight out of Appalachian folklore.

In the summer of 2022, catastrophic flooding swept through the mountains of Eastern Kentucky, destroying homes, washing away roads, and forever changing the lives of those caught in its path.

But according to one extraordinary account, the floodwaters may have disturbed something else... something that had been hiding deep within the mountains.

This week on THAT WOULD BE RAD, Woody and Tyler journey into the mysterious Appalachian wilderness to investigate the bizarre story of...

THE KENTUCKY FLOOD GOBLINS!

Small, mysterious humanoid creatures reportedly appeared in the aftermath of the devastating floods. With strange physical features, dark eyes, and primitive clothing, these unusual beings seemed frightened, displaced, and completely out of place in the modern world.

But where did they come from?

And perhaps more importantly... what were they doing beneath the mountains of Kentucky?

In this episode, we explore:
