On this rowdy Midwest paranormal podcast the hosts drink strange beverages and recount the true 1820s story of Alexis St. Martin — a fur trapper left with a permanently open wound into his stomach — and Dr. William Beaumont, who used him to study digestion.

The episode mixes dark humor, historical medical experiments, and ethical questions about how early science treated its human subjects, all against a backdrop of booze and banter.

In this episode the hosts swap stories about mysterious bottomless pits, starting with Minnesota’s Devil’s Kettle — a waterfall that seems to swallow water, dye and GPS trackers — and moving to the legend of Mel’s Hole, a strange well tied to Coast to Coast AM reports of impossible depths, hot ice, a cooked sheep and a seal‑like creature.

Between jokes and bar banter, they discuss investigations, wild theories (from underground caves to interdimensional portals) and reports of military interest, leaving listeners with more questions than answers.

On this episode the hosts stumble through history and drink breaks as they recount the eerie Ridgeway legends. From 1840s miners and stagecoach routes to shape-shifting phantoms that appear as animals, headless riders, or the spirits of two tragic brothers, the guests debate whether the sightings are ghosts, skinwalkers, or generational hauntings.

They mix facts about the lead-mining boom and Military Ridge with local folklore, personal anecdotes, and the chilling detail that similar sightings persist in Ridgeway to this day.
