The What CAst #264 - Possessed Objects
Are killer dolls real? Could that My Buddy doll from the back of your closet really harbor the soul of a murderer? Could that old Cabbage Patch doll house the essence of a demon? Based on these references, it should be clear that I am a child of the 80's, but that is neither here nor there.
In the bible, it is said that Adam was formed from clay and given life through God's divine power. In legends of Jewish mysticism, it is claimed that a golem can be created in much the same way.
Is there a difference between Adam and the Golem? Is Chucky or Annabelle a form of Golem? What's this nonsense about Voodoo dolls?
Well...
Mateo is a porcelain doll that houses the soul of a 14 century Spanish explorer and Mike is secretly the Golem of Prague.
Just...ya know, keep it between us. It hard enough trying to go through life as a magical construct.

What Cast #263 - The Bigfoot War Of 1855
As humans, we've been deeply involved in thousands or wars throughout history. Typically, it's one culture/nation against another. Some conspiracy theorists would have you believe that there is an on-going war against some alien power that we have been struggling against for damn near 100 years.
One thing that we don't often hear about is the war against the Bigfeet...Bigfoots? Bigfooted...Sasquatches. Yeah, the human/sasquatch war. That's the ticket.
Maybe it's not a full on war, but there have been some noted skirmishes that resulted in deaths on both sides. Maybe this was a territorial spat, maybe it was deep seeded hatred, left over from an ancient war between our races. Listen to the missive from Director Jones for more on this...
Maybe people are just dicks and stole Bigfoot's beef jerky one too many times.

The What Cast #262 - Unnatural Disasters?
EXPLOSIONS! MASS MURDER! EARTHQUAKES! HURRICANES! FIRE!
Sounds like the End of Times, doesn't it?
Humans are an odd lot. There's a great majority that hear of tragic events and see them for what they are. They feel bad for those impacted by loss or suffering, but go back to living life under the assumption that bad things happen and we are not immortal beings.
Then there's the other lot...
These are the people that will turn a tragedy into convoluted, often political mess. They are the ones to grasp onto the slightest thread of dubious evidence and use it to support a notion of a grand conspiracy.
This week, inspired by the ridiculous conspiracy theories claiming California is under attack from the Death Star, we decided to get into the ridiculous conspiracies that surround tragic events.
