  • Episode 17- Midwest Mysteries: 1897 Airships, Aliens, and Time-Traveling Nazis
    Jan 7 2026

    In this unscripted, booze-fueled episode the hosts dig into a wave of 1897 Midwest UFO reports — cigar-shaped airships, bright lights, alleged wreckage, and witnesses from Eau Claire to Kalamazoo. They discuss historical context, possible explanations (from early dirigibles to aliens and time travel), and the odd details recorded in period newspapers and books.

    The episode is heavy on rambunctious banter, wild theories, and laugh-out-loud moments, with the hosts promising more follow-up episodes to investigate the mystery further.

    In this beer-fueled episode the hosts trade jokes and local stories while digging into the life, union power and mysterious 1975 disappearance of Teamsters boss Jimmy Hoffa.

    They summarize Hoffa’s rise and conviction, his links to organized crime and Richard Nixon, review the FBI investigations and popular theories (from stadium burials to horse farms and secret cremations), and touch on cultural takes like The Irishman and MythBusters.

  • Episode 15- Madman Mike’s Time Machine: The Missouri Vortex
    Dec 24 2025

    The hosts drink, joke, and dive into the strange true story of Mike Markham — a Missouri man who claimed to build a time machine using a Jacob’s Ladder and stolen transformers, called into Coast to Coast AM, disappeared for two years, and reappeared in Ohio holding a mysterious device.

    The episode mixes skepticism, conspiracy chatter, and humor as the crew recounts Markham’s arrest, the blackout his experiments caused, Art Bell interviews, and theories linking the case to other time-travel legends.
