The Witch-King of Angmar talks a big game for someone prophesized to not fall "by the hand of man" in a world filled with many people who fit the bill of "not a man." We know about one loophole in this prophecy, but just how many are there?

The Patterson-Gimlin film is the most famous video in cryptozoology, but how many old white men with ridiculous cowboy names could possibly be responsible for it? We dip one big toe into true crime as the case takes as many twists and turns as could possibly be expected for a single Wikipedia page.

Ape-ril is back and bigger than ever! We just saw Godzilla x Kong: A New Empire. While we loved to see our boys getting along (mostly) and the screenwriters cribbing ideas from our goofball monster show (VERY allegedly), it got us thinking about the perennial complaint about this kind of movie. Can you actually "get rid of the boring human characters" in a kaiju film and still have a fully functional movie?

There is a gulf of understanding between humans and spirits in Avatar: The Last Airbender. Crossing that gulf to provide relief for troubled mortal souls is a noble goal. But maybe you shouldn't start by trying to be an unlicensed therapist for Azula, the final boss of therapy patients.

There's no way the Predator would consider two chaotic podcast hosts to be worthy prey. How about four? Dylan and Dalton from "Are You Afraid of the Dark Universe?" help us think of ways to get an intergalactic hunter with glowing lube in his veins to notice us!

Oh, hi! We didn't see you there. Come on in! We were just talking about our D&D episode. Adam has a whole setting that we barely scratched the surface of, so for our 150th episode, we'll be going Inside the DM's Studio and discussing the ins and outs of Cay Caldera.

From the fruitylicious mind of Erich von Däniken, author of Chariots of the Gods?, comes a Valentine's Day episode that asks a question: Is it possible, as Adam and Allie suggest, that Ancient Aliens is real and all the gods are extrateRestrial beings? And if so, does that mean Aphrodite was real thousands of years ago? And if so, does that mean she can help me get laid? Ancient astronaut theorists say yes!

Last year was a bad year for franchise films. That can only mean one thing: it's Jar Jar's time to shine, baby! That's right, we're calling in the muy muy bombad huge-o guns. But before he can save blockbuster geek cinema, we have to the last of June-uary's beachy vibes to save Mr. Binks.

We start the year with the aquatic monsters and beachy vibes of June-uary. But a lot went down in the ocean last year, and there's no better time to pit 2023's greatest marine combatants against the white whale who always prevails, the cetacean sensation, the odontocete that can't be beat, the unfettered physeter, the all-devouring AND all-conquering heavyweght champion of classic literature, Moby Dick!

We've done centaurs, but we've never done them with (say it with me) beachy vibes! That's right, it's June-uary 4: The Revenge! Our centaur episode is one we think we could've done better, so we're dedicating the first episode of 2024 to equine hybrids, wet and wild alike.

Ah Dang, Mothman Won't Move Out (He Said It Was Just For The Weekend) creator Paul Matijevic (@ettin64) joins us for a deluxe-length session of his TTRPG! But will it be enough to save Christmas (and a bridge) from the forces of chaos?

Listeners, rosin up your headphones and play this podcast hard, 'cause Hell's broke loose in Georgia, and the Devil's on FMR. If you listen, you might laugh or your eyes might roll, but either way Allie gets your soul!

A deer skull perched atop the body of a furred, carnivorous cryptid. For many, that is what a wendigo is. We're looking for a deeper meaning as we take a look at some more mythologically accurate interpretations of everybody's favorite cannibalistic spirit.

A nostalgic, classic Americana pervades the Unknown, the liminal realm where forgotten stories go. And what could be more American than tearing down a magical forest to build a monument to capitalism that will be profitable for about 30 years? It's not exactly paradise, but we're paving it anyway! For MONEY! USA! USA! USA!

We're ringing in Halloween with a cult classic, some late '00s nostalgia, and our least subtle episode title yet! Join us in looking back at toxic friendships, the misogynist hate-boner that society had for Megan Fox, and a criminally underappreciated horror-comedy.

At one point in this episode, Adam says "Let's get fucking wrecked!" in a passable Bill Cipher impression. Folks, if that isn't worth the price of admission, I don't know what is. (No refunds, though!)
