Summary

What's scarier than three men disappearing without a trace, at the same time, in a lighthouse, on an island, in the middle of the North Atlantic Sea? As we discover, this week on The What If? Podcast: not much. In today's episode we delve deep into the mystery of Eilean Mor, an island off the coast of Scotland that houses.... A lighthouse. And in 1900, three men disappeared from that very lighthouse without a trace. Listen along, and find out how and just maybe why they never came back.

Hot Topics: Roasted By Scottish Dudes, The Keepers Of The Light, A Giant Candle Wick, Choo Choo Rides Are Terrible, "There's Supposed To Be Dudes Here!", Young Baby Salmon Man, The Skypeople, Blue Man Group Myth, Laspurdan Pygmies of Scotland, and much more.
