Show Notes

Louisiana is home to many things: some of the United States' finest cooking, seemingly endless stretches of marshy land, and one particularly smelly, web-toed creature known as the Honey Island Swamp Monster. This is a full mainfeed release of Premium Episode 45: The Swamp.

One Strange Thing: True Paranormal Mysteries explores the archives of the unexplained, blending rigorous historical research with a wry, skeptical wit to investigate true supernatural stories and baffling mysteries that made headlines.
