Episode 90: Living Dinosaurs Part 1 - The Bone Wars

Modern science tells us that the dinosaurs died out some sixty-six million years ago. But, according to rumors, there may be a place you can find them alive. For generations, explorers and locals claim that living dinosaurs stalk the wilds of the African jungles, hiding from discovery in one of the most inhospitable regions of the world. If true, this could be a revelation so profound that it would rock the foundations of modern science for decades.   In this series, we will explore the theory that dinosaurs have survived in the wilds of Africa, and the strange interplay of cryptozoology and creationism. How did one of the coolest animals in history end up as the pivotal argument in flawed science? And is there any proof that dinosaurs still roam the earth?    slayingmonsterspodcast.com [http://slayingmonsterspodcast.com/]   Become a supporter:  supporters.slayingmonsterspodcast.com [http://slayingmonsterspodcast.com/]   Slaying Monsters merch:  slayingmonsterspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com [http://slayingmonsterspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com/]

Episode 89: The Flannan Isles Mystery Part 2 - Storm Kelpies and Sea Monsters

Matt, Katie, and EJ conclude their investigation into the mysterious disappearance of the Flannan Isles lighthouse keepers. Following the disappearance, rumors circulate. Some say the keepers were attacked by violent storm kelpies - water monsters which worshiped the stone henge on the island. Others claim they were swallowed by a sea monster, driven from the depths by a violent storm. But the truth of their disappearance may come from the awesome power of the sea herself, and humankind's futile drive to conquer it.    slayingmonsterspodcast.com [http://slayingmonsterspodcast.com/]   Become a supporter:  supporters.slayingmonsterspodcast.com [http://slayingmonsterspodcast.com/]   Slaying Monsters merch:  slayingmonsterspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com [http://slayingmonsterspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com/]

On a chilly December day in 1900, a lighthouse on the Flannan Islands in Scotland was found deserted. The three keepers who’d been living there were gone, leaving no trace but an overturned chair and plates of uneaten food. Their bodies were never found.

And what sinister or catastrophic events lead to one of the most fascinating disappearances in history?   The Flannan Isles history weaves through haunting folklore and nautical mythology. From ghost ships to water monsters, long-lost cults, and phantom mariners, this is a story of the awesome power of the sea, and our sometimes futile quest to control it.     slayingmonsterspodcast.com [http://slayingmonsterspodcast.com/]   Become a supporter:  supporters.slayingmonsterspodcast.com [http://slayingmonsterspodcast.com/]   Slaying Monsters merch:  slayingmonsterspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com [http://slayingmonsterspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com/]
