Episode 33 – TLC: Thanksgiving Legends and Curses - a podcast by BSPodPhx

Welcome to Cody and Chris’s (belated) Thanksgiving Special! In this episode, we discuss Native American cryptids and curses. First, Cody talks about the land the Amityville house is built on. It’s “definitely” on a burial ground. Chris then discusses a witchy cryptid known as Tah-Tah-Kle’-Ah that lives on forever in owls. Next, Cody talks about the short-lived (for good reason) Lake Shawnee Amusement Park where a ruffled pink ghost girl now roams. Chris’s second story is of a creature, the Pukwudgie, that sounds like it comes straight out of Pokemon. BS Weekly is a good lesson on how to survive the holidays with your family. This week's drinks are Storyteller Red Blend and Insurrection Red Blend.
