Ep. 41 : Lost and Found - Juliane Koepcke, Katherine Van Alst & Steven Kubacki
Is there anything scarier than being lost? Sometimes the journey to be found is even worse. Such was the case for these three adventurers who found themselves trapped in unforgiving territory. We'll uncover the hiding place of 8-year-old Katherine Van Alst who disappeared in Devil's Den State Park in 1946. We'll travel to the Amazon with Juliane Koepcke, whose world came crashing down one fateful Christmas Eve in 1971. Stranded in the dense jungle, Koepcke was forced to put one shoeless foot in front of the other after unimaginable trauma. Finally, we'll close with Steven Kubacki's ooky spooky disappearance on the frozen shores of Lake Michigan in 1978. This second part in Elise's "summer series" is sure to inspire, scare and remind listeners that you'd rather not go it alone in the great outdoors. Halee treats us with a tried and true favorite. Too bad Elise can't have any. Happy Haunting!
Ep 13: The Very Saucy Abduction of Antonio Villas Boas
Flirtatious UFOs? A Brazilian farmer smothered in goo? Seductive humanoids? Strap in folks, because this week's episode has it all! Today we cover the abduction of Antonio Villas Boas, who claimed in 1957 to have a very... interesting UFO encounter. We'll learn about the weeks leading up to the abduction and the signs that something was to come, the fateful night that Boas says 5 foot tall humanoids snatched him, and of course, we'll talk about the one lady humanoid that got away. Is there a cute little human/alien hybrid baby out there in space somewhere, wondering about his earthling father? We'll share the compelling evidence, as well as the holes in his story, and you can be the judge! Before we retire for the evening, Elise delights our palates with oatmeal cookies (or salad cookies, as Halee calls them) and we ponder our own mortalities. Pour yourself a glass of Kimmy, and join us on this wild and weird adventure. Happy haunting!
Ep 4: Vanished From the Sky - Aerial Abductions
It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a UFO! Halee takes us through some uncharted EBC territory as we navigate our very first alien episode. We'll learn about three different aerial abductions and unpack what we think may have happened. Listen to us read a real transcript between Pilot Frederick Valentich and air traffic control as he describes a large aircraft flanking him before his plane disappears forever. We'll talk about government cover ups, X-files episodes, and even the sale of a refrigerator from Elise's bathroom. This episode is full of surprises and ends with some deliciously sweet pretzels baked in our dear little oven. Happy Haunting!
