We've got one of our favorite episodes up this week, starting out with Em's deep dive into the UFO encounter of Snippy the horse - which sounds fun but, content warning, is one of the first documented cases of UFO related animal mutilations. Then Christine brings us the biggest true crime case we've never heard of in the Hall-Mills murders, that involves some wild town gossip and the rise of tabloids.

The air feels weird for episode 333 - maybe it's because we're talking about some naughty things like government UFO whistleblowing! That's right, Em takes us on a deep dive into the recent claims made by David Grusch that the U.S. government not only has alien spacecraft but bodies as well. Then Christine covers the extremely distressing case of Ryan Waller and some wildly infuriating police incompetence. And Christine drinks this week on behalf of Em's veins... and that's why we drink!
