20 SEP 2026 · A child's shoe appeared on unbroken snow - no footprints in, no footprints out
Cold and uncanny: a size 4 white canvas shoe stood upright on pristine snow beside a capped dry well with no footprints approaching or leaving-on January 14, 2009. For eighteen months before that, the farmhouse on Sparrow Hill produced low, rhythmic thuds and a slow push of air coming from below the ground; what waited under the well, and why was it missed for so long?
In this episode, we tell the sequence of events from the first sounds Debra Stevens recorded to the shoe left in the north yard, outlining her methods, the animal behavior, and the official checks that followed. How did a trained radiology technician document something unseen beneath her property, and what finally drew attention to that capped well?
Person: Debra Stevens
Date: January 14, 2009
Location: north yard of a farmhouse outside Grover Falls (Sparrow Hill)
Animal: Hatch, border collie
Initial survey: county extension inspection by Joe Briggs in September 2007
- The shoe was size four, white canvas with a faded pink stripe and a tucked lace, standing upright in undisturbed snow.
- The scene was photographed and reported to the sheriff's substation; the caller waited in her car in eleven-degree cold.
- No footprints were found approaching or leaving the shoe for as far as the eye could follow on the morning of January 14, 2009.
- Debra recorded low rhythmic thuds at about twice per second and a slow air-push sound over an eighteen-month period beginning summer 2007.
- Hatch would stop and hold ten to twelve feet from the capped dry well on multiple nights, showing no barking or retreat. To listen to this podcast ad-free and access premium episodes, try our subscription with a 14-day free trial at obomedia.com.

19 SEP 2026 · The Laminated Boarding Pass Nobody Should Have - Who Placed It?
A laminated boarding pass for a flight that never left was found face-up in a drainage channel two days after its supposed departure, sealed in a ground-crew plastic sleeve with ice on the top but not underneath. Who deliberately placed a passenger’s credential for a cancelled Meridian Regional Airways Flight 1140 out on a new trail - and why would someone fabricate an artifact for a woman who never received it?
In this episode, we tell the events surrounding Alice Duncan’s booking, the cancellation that didn’t reach her, the gate agent’s discovery, and the discovery on the trail - asking whether the boarding pass was a mistaken discard or a planted clue that links a retirement party, airline data, and a corporate dispute.
Person: Alice Duncan
Date: December 7, 2011
Flight: Meridian Regional Airways Flight 1140
Location: Creston Flats drainage channel near new trail
Finder: Janet Berry
- Alice Duncan booked Flight 1140 online on November 25 and paid by debit card for seat 4A.
- The airline removed Flight 1140 from the system on the morning of December 6, more than 24 hours before the scheduled departure.
- On the morning of December 7 Alice arrived at the gate at 5:50 a.m. with confirmation and was told the flight did not exist.
- On December 9 Janet Berry found the laminated boarding pass face-up and level in a drainage channel beside a trail opened in mid-October.
- Photographs and a deputy’s notes show the plastic sleeve had a rime of ice on the top surface but not on the underside where it rested against gravel. To listen to this podcast ad-free and access premium episodes, try our subscription with a 14-day free trial at obomedia.com.

18 SEP 2026 · The Notebook on the Basin: Mail Stamped After It Vanished
A sealed, postmarked letter was found inside a field notebook in the mud of Crampton Basin the morning it was mailed - yet the notebook had vanished from a locked observatory room and reappeared nine miles away with no logical route between. How did a stamped envelope, cancelled the same morning at a post office seventeen miles away, end up on the dry bank of a desert reservoir?
In this episode, we follow the six-week sequence of verifiable events around Ridgeline Radio Observatory and the notebook belonging to twenty-six-year-old radio astronomer Valerie Stevens. The episode covers her observation logs, the conflicting automated recordings, and the impossible timeline that links a postmarked envelope, a missing notebook, and repeated signals at the hydrogen line - how do these facts connect?
Person: Valerie Stevens
Date: November 14, 2011
Location: Crampton Basin
Event: Eleven-three-eleven signal at 1420 MHz
Item: Field notebook recovered with sealed, postmarked envelope
- The notebook was spotted in mud forty yards from the waterline at 9:00 AM on November 14, 2011.
- The envelope inside was postmarked and cancelled that same morning at a post office in Mira Flats, 17 miles from the basin.
- Valerie Stevens recorded an 11-minute event composed of 11s pulse, 3s pause, 11s pulse at 1420 MHz on October 28, 2011, timestamped at 2:18 AM.
- Ridgeline Radio Observatory staff housing consisted of a single trailer; nearest coffee required a 40-minute round trip.
- Valerie maintained a strict routine: leave station at 5:55 PM, give her chinchilla Orbit a dust bath between 6:00 and 6:30 PM every other evening. To listen to this podcast ad-free and access premium episodes, try our subscription with a 14-day free trial at obomedia.com.

17 SEP 2026 · Forty-Three Days After Death: The Library Card That Bought Silence
A dead woman's library card was stamped forty-three days after her death and then hidden inside a crack in a library wall for sixteen years - unreadable ink, an unused return slot, and one person who could have answered everything who died in 2012. What happened between the October death and the November checkout, and why did no one notice for almost two decades?
In this episode, we follow the timeline and people connected to a single library checkout and the book that vanished into a building's gap, asking whether the ordinary routines around a small-town library can hide an extraordinary unanswered question.
Person: Dorothy Vance
Date: October 2, 2003 (death)
Location: Millhaven branch of the Dellen County Public Library
Date: November 14, 2003 (library card stamped)
Person: Helen Pruitt
- Dorothy Vance died of cardiac arrest on October 2, 2003 at age 61.
- The library card was stamped November 14, 2003 - forty-three days after Dorothy's death.
- The card contained three impressions with chemically identical ink, per forensic document examiner Leon Fife in August 2019.
- The Millhaven branch north wall had a return slot with a gap used as an informal drop-box since at least 1995.
- The book and card remained wedged inside the wall for sixteen years until discovered while the closed branch sat mostly undisturbed since 2011. To listen to this podcast ad-free and access premium episodes, try our subscription with a 14-day free trial at obomedia.com.

16 SEP 2026 · A Boxcar on a Track That Didn't Exist: The Dellhart Rail Yard Case
A weathered full-size boxcar sat on a spur that had no rails - and no record - until a contractor saw it at 4:00 a.m, on September 14, 2011. How did car DLHX0044 end up resting on an E-7 spur that had been decommissioned and stripped of rails eight years earlier?
In this episode, you’ll hear the sequence of sightings, notes, and small anomalies that clustered around the E-7 corridor at Dellhart Rail Yard and the question they raised about who rebuilt invisible track and why.
Person: Jessica Clark
Date: September 14, 2011
Location: Dellhart Rail Yard, E-7 spur
Case: DLHX0044 boxcar found on non-existent track
Event: Approximately 240 feet of new rail laid over three nights in August 2011
- At 4:00 a.m. on September 14, 2011 Jessica Clark spotted a full-size boxcar on the E-7 spur.
- The reporting mark on the boxcar was DLHX0044.
- The E-7 spur had been decommissioned in 2001 and rails removed in 2003.
- Randy Cox found fresh metal filings beside the old ties during an inspection in early August 2011.
- Over three nights in late August 2011 two men laid about 240 feet of new rail along the E-7 tie bed. To listen to this podcast ad-free and access premium episodes, try our subscription with a 14-day free trial at obomedia.com.

15 SEP 2026 · Sweet Deadly Bloom: The Daffodil Smell That Killed Cindy Marsh
The scent of fresh daffodils filled a sealed third-floor room in the middle of August - a smell that had been appearing every summer for thirty years and that preceded a teenage girl's fatal fall. How could a spring flower bloom in a locked dormitory window in August, and why did the smell return on the same wall for decades?
In this episode, we follow the people who encountered the smell - a photographer, a deputy, a former classmate - and the official records that first recorded a strange floral odor in a locked room; can the smell explain what happened to Cindy Marsh that August in 1981?
Person: Cindy Marsh
Date: August 1981
Location: Room 308, Hatchett Hall, Greystone Academy, Farwell County, Indiana
Event: Death ruled an accidental fall from a third-floor window
Duration: Smell reported annually on the third floor for thirty years
- Kelly Weber called the sheriff at 9:47 a.m. after smelling daffodils outside Hatchett Hall and took one photograph.
- Hatchett Hall had been locked and unused since Greystone closed in 1996, fifteen years before Kelly's call.
- Deputy Marcus Trent arrived past noon and noted a strong floral, almost chemical smell, but found the window closed and no vase or petals remaining.
- Cindy Marsh died between her junior and senior year at approximately sixteen or seventeen years old in early August 1981.
- Teresa Smith returned to the campus in August 2009 and again detected the concentrated daffodil smell coming from the north wall of Hatchett Hall. To listen to this podcast ad-free and access premium episodes, try our subscription with a 14-day free trial at obomedia.com.

14 SEP 2026 · The Boat Came Home-But the Captain Was Nowhere to Be Found
A perfectly tied thirty-two-foot lobster boat rolled into Pettis Cove with engine cold and lights off - but its captain, Marvin Russo, was missing after 25.5 hours; the harbor camera shows the Celia Mae entering from the south at 2:17 AM, a direction Russo never used. Who steered the boat home, and why is there an anonymous pencil entry reading "Forty-two gallons" in a logbook no one can identify?
In this episode, we walk through the timeline from Russo leaving at 4:40 AM on July 13, 2011 to the Celia Mae's return the next morning, laying out the recorded facts and the unanswered oddities that followed: the camera angle, the fuel math, and the unknown handwriting - what do they mean?
Person: Marvin Russo
Date: July 13-14, 2011
Location: Pettis Cove, Maine
Vessel: Celia Mae, 32-foot lobster boat
Fuel reading: 42 gallons remaining (logbook note: "Forty-two gallons")
- Russo had been missing for 25.5 hours when the boat was found tied to its usual slip.
- The harbor camera recorded the Celia Mae entering at 2:17 AM on July 14 with no running lights.
- Russo left Pettis Cove at approximately 4:40 AM on July 13 and normally fished Kettle Ground, 12 nautical miles northeast.
- He loaded 81 gallons of fuel at 6:40 AM on July 12, totaling approximately 91 gallons aboard before departure.
- The fuel gauge on return read about 42 gallons, implying roughly 50 gallons consumed (≈10 hours engine time), and the logbook contained a separate pencil entry "Forty-two gallons" in handwriting not matched to Russo or others tested.

13 SEP 2026 · Who Kept Beverly's Campfire Burning Until Dawn?
A fire was still burning at 7:40 a.m. on June 19, 2016-fresh wood consumed, boots outside the tent, sleeping bag unzipped, truck locked, and Beverly Graham nowhere to be found. Who deliberately fed that fire overnight while no one was at the camp, and why would a meticulous 28-year-old who logged her campsite coordinates vanish from a tent she zipped shut?
In this episode, we lay out the sequence of factual events from Beverly’s GPS track logs, witness observations, and official reports to present what happened from the moment she entered her tent to when she walked out hours later-what does the evidence say about the missing time and the campfire that should have been dead?
Person: Beverly Graham
Date: June 19, 2016
Location: Tacheron State Forest
Age: 28
Witness: Randy Ford
- At 7:40 a.m., Randy Ford found a campfire actively burning, fresh wood consumed, boots upright outside the tent, sleeping bag unzipped, and Beverly absent.
- Beverly entered her tent and let the fire settle to coals around 9:30 p.m. on June 18, 2016, not fully extinguishing it as a normal practice.
- At 9:51 p.m., a manual waypoint was logged on Beverly’s GPS unit-requiring deliberate button presses-though she has no memory of leaving the tent.
- Sometime between 1:00 and 2:00 a.m., Beverly woke to a rhythmic sound from the north, left her tent in camp socks with headlamp and bear spray, and walked toward the sound into unfamiliar ridge terrain.
- Beverly exited the trees and walked out around 1:40 p.m. the same day, dehydrated with a scrape on her forearm, coherent and calm; the case remained closed for nineteen months.

12 SEP 2026 · - plant in OPENING; do not explain yet.)
A dead phone line started ringing in a locked motel room at 7:41 AM on a Sunday - the handset had no cord and the motel had been closed for seven months; why did a decorative avocado rotary telephone, sold at a kitchen-table sale for $60, end up ringing in Room Eleven? What connects a decades‑old ritual between siblings, a November sale receipt, and the unlocked door that morning?
In this episode, we follow the chain of events and the people tied to the Painted Fork Motor Lodge and the avocado phone, laying out the documented timeline and the physical details that make the case so puzzling. How did a phone without a cord ring, and who had access to Room Eleven before Teresa Hensley photographed it at 7:41 AM?
Person: Teresa Hensley
Date: May 9, 2019
Location: Painted Fork Motor Lodge, Room Eleven, four miles east of Wickenburg on Route 60
Event: Phone ringing at 7:41 AM from a cord‑less avocado rotary telephone
Status: Motel closed since October 2018; owner Dale Pritchard deceased
- Teresa Hensley photographed the phone and the junction panel at 7:41 AM before touching anything.
- The Painted Fork Motor Lodge had been closed since October 2018 after owner Dale Pritchard died.
- An avocado rotary phone was sold for $60 on November 12, 2018, with a handwritten receipt by Brenda Burke.
- Brenda’s brother Curtis called her every Sunday at 7:30 AM and often put the avocado handset to his ear as a joke; Curtis died in late February 2019.
- Room Eleven used a separate knob‑lock key that never appeared in the estate inventory and was found unlocked by Teresa. To listen to this podcast ad-free and access premium episodes, try our subscription with a 14-day free trial at obomedia.com.

11 SEP 2026 · The Envelope That Knew the Day Harwick Would Flood
Fear of uncanny prediction: a seventy-three-word typewritten note left in a two-finger gap on April 19, 2011 named an exact pipe elbow, a precise flood depth of fourteen inches, and the date April 23 - and every number came true four days later. Who placed an unpostmarked manila envelope in a ventilation shaft and how did it anticipate a forty-seven-year-old failure prediction that matched the archival damage?
In this episode, we follow the sequence of events on Harwick University's campus from the morning the envelope was found to the basement flood, describing who handled the document and what the note specified, and we ask whether prior archive research or someone with access created the warning that saved materials.
Person: Ronald Vogel
Person: Gina Jenkins
Collection: Yount Collection
Date: Envelope found April 19, 2011
Event: Flood on April 23, 2011
- The envelope was wedged into a four-inch gap between a chain-link fence and a concrete ventilation shaft on the north edge of campus.
- The typewritten document inside was seventy-three words long and folded once on a single sheet of white paper.
- The note named a specific ninety-degree elbow fitting installed in 1964 and predicted it would fail on April 23, 2011 at 2:17 PM.
- The water rose to fourteen inches and caused significant damage to the bottom three shelving tiers in the Callender Hall basement archive.
- Gina Jenkins, who had key card access and last swiped out at 11:04 PM on April 18, moved Yount Collection boxes from the bottom tiers to higher shelves on April 20 without logging or reporting the action.
