Summary

Dim the lights and strap in for a doozy, folks. This week Spencer and Ryan recount the strange and terrifying mystery of The Yuba Incident, sometimes referred to as: The American Dyatlov Pass. In Northern California in 1978, five friends left a basketball game they were attending on a Friday night, and none of the men ever came home. What may have happened, and how they were discovered, will probably shock you... It did us.

Hot Topics: The Yuba Incident, Shout Out To Basketball, The Mercury Montego Was Fire, Running Into Time-Traveling Bigfoot, 20 Miles Uphill, Oh Fuck Run, Similarities to The Dyatlov Pass, Astonishing Legends.
