About this episode

Today we are easing you into the weekend with some mysteries that don't involve a murder or a missing person. Despite that, these are still head-scratchers and fun to think and learn about. 

In November of 1987, someone hijacked the signal for 2 television stations in Chicago in what is arguably one of the most iconic instances of video piracy ever. Who was behind the Max Headroom Signal Intrusion? 

In 1981, residents on Thornton Street in Birmingham England were tormented by stones being continously pelted at their homes, causing severe damage and obviously, severe anxiety. Despite drastic measures by the police to locate the source of this, the rock attacks continued for THREE YEARS with no culprit ever being found. Was it a dedicated vandal, or something of the paranormal nature?

In 2009, strange posts referencing an obscure restaurant that wasn't open anymore started to appear online as comments on various posts throughout the web. The posts increased in volume and spanned over the course of 5 years, all praising "Captain Kutchie and his famous key-lime pies". Who was behind these strange posts and more importantly-why? 

Featuring a very special guest and a dear friend of mine, Joann Li.
