First, Cody dives into the strange occurrence known as The Marfa Lights, a paranormal light show that actually exists! Chris then discusses a world-wide superstition he grew up with in New Mexico: El Mal Ojo. Next, Cody pulls a new story out of his hiney, one about the history and superstition involving horseshoes. Chris’s last story is an urban legend involving a weird life-like mannequin with the world’s scariest fingernails. BS Weekly is about an city in Australia that wants to start a curfew...for cats. This Weeks drinks are Sideshow: The Charmer Shiraz, and Tractor Milk Mustachio Stout.
