Across centuries and continents, people in extreme isolation like explorers, climbers, disaster survivors, and astronauts have reported the same eerie experience when they were alone and felt all was lost, the sudden sense that someone else had appeared beside them.

Some believe it is a guardian angel, others a deeper part of our own minds, and still others believe it's God.

This week's episode is The Third Man Factor.

A bump in the night, your heart fills with dread, probably a murder of who wants you dead.

It could be a ghost, a demon or worse, perhaps you're the victim of a witch's curse.

It's hopeless, you're doomed, you'd call a priest if you could,

you'd rather just listen to who Sinisterhood

I'm gonna kill you

While I was trudging through the frozen tundra of Dallas

listening to the story of Ernest Shackleton in Antarctica

and I was like I wouldn't make it, I wouldn't have Antarctica and I was like, I wouldn't make it.

I wouldn't have made it out of there. I can barely make it back to my door.

No, man, like so many. We got a whole ice situation over here. This is sadly the ice that I

would much prefer.

But yeah.

And when everyone's like, but it's snow and we're like, it isn't though.

It's literally like hard ice that has formed a mountain in my backyard.

But if you walk on it, you don't sink into it.

It's just like you slide down it. That's what I was like walking yesterday. And there were some like sleep patches or whatever where it was still snow-ish. Like some kids were trying to throw it at each other. Just hitting people on the face with bricks, rocks. That was, well, the dust was on top. So if I stepped on the dust, I said it's kind of like walking on the beach, but then

underneath it is like a hardwood floor.

So it's as if you put sand on a hardwood floor and you're like, no one has fun with.

But everyone is coming up with very innovative ways to sled around here.
