Metra has been thinking a lot about of investigation at the Menger Hotel in San Antonio, TX and dug a little deeper on one of the names we kept getting from the spirit box. While it's just a theory, she was able to connect a few dots. We also rank our favorite and least favorite television theme songs of all time. 

Original Menger Hotel episodes are number 210 and 211 if you want to go back to listen to those.
