Weird Laws Pt 1 (Re-release)

(Re-Release!) Your two favorite hosts take turns laughing hysterically at some weird laws in their home states, as well exploring a few strange laws in other US states. Update on the dog catcher law in CO, they don't actually serve the notice to the dog, they just have to post a notice of their intent to impound the dog including a picture at the animal shelter for at least 3 days before they can actually impound the dog. But it sure would make it even more funny if they were out there notifying the dogs. If you have any paranormal, UFO, or cryptid stories or would just like to share some strange facts please send us an email at whataboutweirdpod@gmail.com Thank you!

The Green Children of Woolpit

This week we go back in time to discuss the case of the green children of Woolpit. We learn about the town, wolf pits, medical history, and two kids who really love beans. Was it just a folk story? Or is it a historic event explained by medical science? Could they have been fae? Or maybe they were beings from a Christian town in Hollow Earth...
