Daniel likes to portray himself as this super pop culture nerd and yet somehow didn't know about the After Hours style scene in Tremors where they name the monsters Graboids? Get out of here you fisherman.

You know, I left these guys a couple of encouraging comments on their old articles and shows. So basically I taught them everything they know! 😂

I think you need a therapist, Dan. I don't mean that in an insulting kind of way. It'd help your anxiety.

Daniel, I've got a great idea for you! For a certain amount of support on Patreon, you could offer to write that supporter into the small town murder mystery you're obviously writing! THAT could be your "deal!"

dark ambient music. it's mindless and not distracting, but still has enough going on to engage whatever parts of the brain are doing work

I imagine women also believe in ghosts for reasons of tangible power wish fulfillment. Up until ~100 years ago, our entire lives were controlled by the whims of the male members of our families, frequently by men who had no discernable meritorious reason for their power over us. That frustration would be reason enough to hope that there's an afterlife in which one could enact revenge over mistreatment. Thus, even if the woman herself didn't believe in ghosts herself, she might encourage others' belief for the projected power & possible better treatment fear of an angry ghost would engender. @Sorin - There's a VERY rich culture of African-American ghost stories and belief in the afterlife, especially in the Deep South. I'm surprised you didn't at least hear the names Papa Legba & Marie Leveau in NOLA. Or the infamous Madame LaLaurie, who tortured/murdered so many of her slaves that her mansion's believed to be one of the most haunted sites in the city.

Hearing Sorin tell the story about getting into a crawl space I can truly say that he and Daniel are on opposite sides of the spectrum.

I can't believe that Alex Schmidt was laid off! I have listened to the Cracked podcast from its inception and I always enjoyed it. Jack was great as the host, Alex was great too. I hope that Alex finds an amazing job soon, he absolutely deserves all the success in the world.

Congratulations to the Bowe household! Also, was that wedding guest Jack O'Brien? You can tell me, no one else will ever know. Because I have no friends.
