This episode, Sharon has returned from trip to Australia. She and Torkel discuss what it’s like there. News items include a discussion of why some maladjusted folks think Australia doesn’t even exist. Nearby in Tasmania, a few people hold out hope that the Thylacine still exists. Meanwhile, back in the U.S., a media-hyped Montana mystery manimal is not so monstrous, Las Vegas news gives credence to a ridiculous story about a “time warp” anomaly supposedly discovered by an adamant guy with a gadget in the desert, and there is an update on the weird and scary explosions in upper Bucks County Pennsylvania.
