    Mar 9 2026
    In this episode, Matt discusses Loab, a woman who might be a ghost, or a demon, or a cryptid, or just an oddity of data storage.

    105 The Cursed Car of Archduke Ferdinand
    Nov 3 2025
    As the inciting incident of World War I, it is no surprise that the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand would be the subject of folklore. However, the car he was in when he was killed has been the focus of increasingly strange and macabre stories of death and dismemberment since the 1920s. In this episode, Matt explores the story of the infamous car in which the Archduke took his final ride and how the tales deviate from the truth.
