This week, we’re heading to Wisconsin, where history and the bizarre collide! Lauren kicks things off with the story of John Schrank, the man who tried to assassinate President Theodore Roosevelt during a campaign stop in Milwaukee. Schrank’s troubled past, strange visions, and shocking actions make this a story that is as unsettling as it is unforgettable. Then, Kenzie dives into one of Wisconsin’s strangest UFO encounters—the bizarre case of Joe Simonton. In 1961, Joe claimed that aliens landed in his yard, asked him for water, and even shared pancakes with him. Was it a hoax, a dream, or one of the oddest alien encounters in American history? Join us as we uncover Wisconsin’s strange mix of political violence and extraterrestrial mystery!
