Summary

On this installment of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off talking about eating Moose meat, hunting in Alaska, and how terrifying bears can be. Then a person has run-in with a Pale Crawler and a listener writes in with a sighting of a flying Pterosaur in the United Kingdom. Then, a person named Jake from San Diego tells a scary tale about a strange dark mass seen on closed-circuit security cameras at a hotel, late one night.

After the break, Cam brings up some strange military encounters from around the world spanning many years, miles, and wars. They say battle proves mankind doesn't need to invent monsters, as the monsters were inside us all along. Yet sometimes soldiers report sightings of what can only be described as actual monsters, or in other cases, otherworldly beings. Are these battlefield stresses, or are men whose lives literally depend on remaining alert and aware, seeing things that the rest of us might miss? Do mythological beasts stalk our battlefields? Do curious entities observe from a distance, making notes on our primal, savage nature?

All of this and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives!
