I'm Horrified!

Is it a bear? is it a three legged kangaroo? Is it a short little Alien from outer space? Regardless, let's all get our guns and start shooting indiscriminately into the woods. This week Allie really phones it in and basically just reads you a newspaper article, but we swear it's so out of pocket you'll understand why. Who knows what Henry McDaniel saw that night, but one thing we know for sure is that after April 25th 1973, the small town of Enfield Illinois was catapulted into radio show sci fi hysteria. In an academic paper written about the incident, a researcher did admit "some people tactfully suggested Mr. McDaniel had a notoriously overactive imagination"... but thats exactly what an invading monster from outer space would WANT you to think!

Right after St. Patrick’s Day we’ve got a fascinating piece of Irish history to tell you about - The Wrens of the Curragh, a community of women who lived at the margins of Irish society in the aftermath of the great famine. Their lives were brutal, as were the oppressive forces keeping them poor and hungry no matter what they did to rise above. However, their unity in the face of hardship is what makes these women so invaluable to Irish history, and we’re looking forward to introducing you to their story!
