Summary

So-called 'Havana Syndrome' is mysterious illness reported by US officials in their Embassy in Cuba, and others around the world. Fresh developments have cast fresh doubt on the cause, as the mystery deepens. Dan Vergano, Senior Opinion Editor at Scientific American, has been following the story since day dot. Also, the mystery of the Terracotta Warriors, a 6 foot tall eel, and the boys at The Cryptid Factor have just released exclusive new footage from the shores of Loch Ness.

You can get in touch with Dan Schreiber on Twitter and Instagram (@Schreiberland). In his bio, you'll find the link to our Discord channel - a global community of likeminded weirdos!
