And, as always, a taste-test and we answer listener questions!

Within the last 5 years, there has been an explosion of sightings, information, and disclosure of unidentified alien craft. From officially released videos to congressional hearings, this has been an unprecedented era of UFO information.
In this episode, Krista and Kurt look at the recent state of unidentified flying object research.
And, as always, a taste-test and listener questions!

It’s Part 2 of our Smiley Face Killers episode! In this episode, Krista and Kurt look at theories (hoo boy, a LOT of theories…) about whether or not a person or a group is possibly going around and killing/drowning college-age males.
And, as always, a taste-test and listener questions!

Since the mid 1990’s, hundreds of young men, mostly college students, have disappeared after leaving a bar or a party, only to strangely turn up dead later in a local lake or river. Are these all just drunken accidents, or is there someone (or something) systematically killing these people?
In this episode…the first of two parts…Krista and Kurt look at some of these strange cases where Missing 411 meets true crime.
And, as always, a taste-test and listener questions!

Krista is recuperating from her operation this week (she’s doing well!!!), so this week’s episode is a short Side Sessions preview that was released for Ko-Fi subscribers last November. In 1971, George Cockcroft (under the pseudonym Luke Reinhart) released a novel called The Dice Man. This novel set the stage for “dice living” or making all of your decisions based on a roll of the dice. In this episode, Kurt and Krista look at Rhinehart’s novel and the idea of living your life on the path of chance. 
No taste-test or listener questions this week, but we will be back in two weeks with a new episode!

*NOTE* - The topic discussion starts at 10:16. On April 15th, 1982, the body of 22-year-old Lora Snedegar was discovered in a farmer’s field, dead from gunshot wounds to the head. What followed the discovery of the body was a bizarre tale of mysterious phone calls, strange maps, letters buried in coffins, and ultimately, the deaths or strange disappearances of at least 5 people.
In this Skype episode, Krista and Kurt look into the death of Lora, and the bizarre circumstances that followed. Due to us not being together in person, there’s no taste-test. But there are listener questions.

*NOTE* - The topic discussion starts at 20:08:In this episode, Krist and Kurt follow-up on three stories from previous seasons! They revisit time-traveler John Titor, the strange sounds and other weirdness coming from underneath the Tait house in Wales, and they look at The Mothman and its recent visits to Chicago’s O’Hare airport! And, as always, a taste-test and listener questions!
