533 - El Chupacabra

In 1995 eight sheep were found dead in Puerto Rico... each completely drained of blood and with strange puncture wounds in their chests. This is the tale of the mysterious beast known as El Chupacabra!

This is a comedy/history podcast, the report begins at approximately 12:49 (though as always, we go off on tangents throughout the report).

Recorded live in Sydney!
