I will say, I was so convinced the Fruit of the Loom logo at least HAD a cornucopia in it at one point that i went searching through my husband's old t-shirts. I FOUND a Fruit of the Loom shirt that has the cornucopia in the logo printed on the inside of the shirt. ... i didn't take a picture at the time. now I'm going to have to find it again at take a picture! 😅

Not sure where/how to leave a general comment so I'll add it here on the latest show. I am a "paranormal junkie", having watched or listened to all manner of shows and have developed a rather high standard for what I like and will take seriously. Odd Trails is easily one of the BEST paranormal podcasts I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. These two guys manage to find some of the best most terrifying, and mysterious stories I've come across! EXCELLENT WORK GUYS!!

in the book, "The Body" by Bill Bryson he states that it's a myth that we only use a portion of our brains. it's said we use all of it were just not sure exactly how.
