Ben, Matt, Noel and Super Producer Dylan present one of the strangest episodes in the history of Stuff They Don't Want You To Know: the long-awaited exploration of the Bermuda Triangle -- live, from the actual Bermuda Triangle. (Ben here: I have no idea how we got away with this one. We worked hard on it; we also solve the mystery. Make sure to tune in later this week for our live Q&A, and thank you for supporting this bonkers show.)
HAPPY HALLOWEEN, Y'ALL! In this episode, Rivers is hangin' out with comedian and comic book man extraordinaire Kyle Clark! Tonight we're taking a haunted tour through the deep woods, desolate fields, and dark alleys of the intersection of the American South and the Midwest. First, we go to the haunted prairies of the Sunflower State! Kansas has LOTS of haunted pizzerias, a minotaur named "Bullsquatch", multiple headless horsemen, and no shortage of real-life maniacs. Then, we take a trip across the river to Missouri! The Show Me State features an unpopular cryptid named "Momo", several ghosts of actors who died in their costumes, and penguins from outer space! AC/DC's "Highway to Hell" is our JAM OF THE WEEK! Tune in now! Follow Kyle Clark on all forms of social media @KyleClarkIsRad and check out his new comic "Huzzah!" on his Substack.

Hell yeah, been fixing to do cover this new hotness since the moment I saw it. Now that it's widely available we can talk about all the ways it messes with the color line, what it says about solidarity politics, how it sets up the invention of bluegrass, and what the vampires really represent! Plus, keep your eyes out for a very related NASA!
Federal food assistance is set to stop November 1 if lawmakers are unable to solve the government shutdown. That means the supply of food through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to low-income Native Americans will begin running out without help from alternative sources. Some tribes are putting funds and other efforts toward filling the sudden gap. At least one tribe is culling their own buffalo herds to provide meat for hungry citizens. We’ll get an overview of the situation for Native residents who rely on SNAP.
We’ll also hear about the lengths to which Alaska Native organizations are working to provide traditional foods to the people displaced by major storms on the state’s west coast.

Metal poisons. Odorless ones. Toxic plants. Iocane powder, arsenic, old lace, poisons as self-defense, black mirrors, Aqua Tofanas, movie myths, and the start of testing for that which ails or kills you: we’ve got Historical Toxicology with Pulitzer Prize-winning science author & chemistry connoisseur Deborah Blum. She wrote the beloved “Poisoner's Handbook: Murder and the Birth of Forensic Medicine in Jazz Age New York” and takes us through a spooky walk in time, when chemistry was magic and homicide was an easier feat.
With a special shoutout to fellow Conspiracy Realist J, we present our Classic episode on some hidden history from Mississippi: Most people have heard of Three Mile Island — but what about the multiple other nuclear events on US soil? Join Ben and Matt as they explore the strange, largely untold story of the Tatum Salt Dome in this story from 2020.
A struggle over who is running the Northern Cheyenne tribal government has resulted in arrests of government officials, frozen bank accounts, and an emergency action by traditional tribal leaders to ban women from voting. The divide started after newly elected President Gene Small authorized a forensic financial audit. Another long-standing divide is coming to a head on the Navajo Nation, prompting President Buu Nygren to state he will not resign his position. We’ll talk with reporters covering these two internal government disputes and take a look at some other notable issues and events.
Listen now to the first episode of Sarah's new 8-part series with CBC Podcasts, The Devil You Know.
In the 1980s and 90s, Satan and his followers were accused of brainwashing children, sacrificing babies, and infiltrating North American society on a massive scale — yet these thousands of alleged Satanists were nowhere to be found.
In this all new series, host Sarah Marshall explores the tangled web of the Satanic Panic, in a journey that will take you everywhere from Victoria, B.C. to rural Kentucky to San Antonio, Texas. This is a show about the people who experienced the panic in real-time — the believers, the skeptics, the bystanders, and the wrongfully-convicted.
