Mission 145 – The Mysteries of the Bridgewater Triangle with Aaron Cadieux and Manny Famolare

/

In Mission 145 we explore the mysteries of The Bridgewater Triangle with documentary filmmakers Aaron Cadieux and Manny Famolare. In 1983, cryptozoologist and author Loren Coleman released his best-selling book: Mysterious America. In the book he first coined the term Bridgewater Triangle to designate a roughly 200 square mile area of Massachusetts between Abington, Rehoboth, and Freetown. Coleman discovered many mysterious occurrences inside this triangle ranging from Bigfoot and Thunderbird sightings, giant serpents, UFOs, ghosts, and other strange phenomena. Since then, interest in this area has grown. We get to see some scenes from the new documentary plus Dr. Dreck stops by to sell us on the Bridgewater Triangle Resort. Don’t miss creepy clowns in the news!

Mission 142 – The Dark Side of Rock ‘N Roll with Marcus F. Griffin

/

In Mission 142 we explore what happens when a rock band starts cavorting with paranormal forces they don’t understand. In 1981, an up and coming rock group called Entropy had a run in with something they called “The Grey Man.” This entity promised power, fame, and everything an aspiring rock star could dream of, but it came at a price. Marcus F. Griffin recounts how this entity brought his band right to the edge of fame, but then tore them apart. His new book is called Playing with the Devil: The True Story of a Rock Band’s Terrifying Encounters with the Dark Side. Also, don’t miss Bigfoot in the news!

Mission 138 – Mermaids with Varla Ventura

/

In Mission 138 we take the Mother Ship under the sea to explore mermaids with author, Varla Ventura! For centuries seafarers have whispered, talked, and sang songs to the legend of the mermaid. A half fish, half woman, she appears not just in Disney films alongside singing crabs, but in the folklore of America, Europe, Africa, and Asia. These creatures show up again and again in popular culture and fiction, but also lately on video clips and in photographs. Are they just myth, or is there something more to them? We discuss Ventura’s new book, Among Mermaids: Facts, Myths, and Enchantments from the Sirens of the Sea, and don’t miss a spinning Egyptian statue in the news!

Mission 137 – Covering the Unexplained in the Media

/

In Mission 137 we explore how the main stream media covers the unexplained. Almost every week some news outlet will cover a paranormal story. Sometimes they do so with a scoff, other times video or photo evidence demands the public’s attention and the clips make it to prime time. Tonight the Oddballs are going to look at some headlines from around the globe and have an open discussion as to why some of these items make the news and how the topic is being covered. Could it be that disclosure is happening all around us all of the time and the media is playing its role? Tune in to find out!
