We Bombarded The Giant Trees With Cute Orange Cats!

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2415519/fan_mail/new] Jess tells us about Orangey the Cat! Orangey was a famous cat of the 1950s/60s Hollywood movie and television scene. Well…Orangey was actually several cats, but who’s counting? We also learn a bit about Frank Inn and we really like him for his animal training and his care of a variety of animals during his life! Hids dives into conspiracy theories…specifically one from 2016 about GIANT TREES! Did you know that the forests we walk in today are actually just bushes and shrubs? The MOUNTAINS are the remains of giant trees that once stretched miles into the air!! Yeah…we think it’s whack-a-doodle, too.

The Men In Black Don't Want You To Know About P. Anubis

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2415519/fan_mail/new] Once they finally stop laughing…sort of…Hids gives us a brief look at the Men in Black! They’re going back to 1947 and the start of the UFO craze in the US. We visit Washington State and learn a bit about the first appearance of the Men In Black. Are they supernatural? Are they FBI Agents? Are they just a hoax? Jess takes us across the ocean to Egypt and tells us about an amazing fossil find called Phiomicetus Anubis. Cute oversized sea puppy or vicious prehistoric predator?  Hids’ Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Men_in_black [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Men_in_black] https://www.history.com/articles/men-in-black-real-origins [https://www.history.com/articles/men-in-black-real-origins] Jess’ Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phiomicetus [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phiomicetus] https://www.livescience.com/ancient-whale-god-of-death.html [https://www.livescience.com/ancient-whale-god-of-death.html] https://royalsocietypublishing.org/rspb/article/288/1957/20211368/86341/A-new-protocetid-whale-offers-clues-to [https://royalsocietypublishing.org/rspb/article/288/1957/20211368/86341/A-new-protocetid-whale-offers-clues-to] Support the show [https://www.patreon.com/JessAndHids] Join our Discord!

Smokey The Vampyre? NO! Just Smokey Vampyre

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2415519/fan_mail/new] Tangents abound! Hids takes a look at a Smokey Bear, the iconic and longest running public service announcement campaign in US History! Wildfires are a very real threat across the US and the world, and Smokey has been a voice for prevention and safety for over 81 years! Jess takes a look at something slightly creepier than bears…vampires! Specifically the rise of the current ‘romantic’ vampire depiction from the Victorian era and a brief look at some of the earliest mentions of vampirism. We’ll definitely be looking forward to future episodes and deeper dives into this topic!
