Today's True Weird Stuff - Big Muddy Monster



Summer, 1973. Police in Murphysboro, Illinois started receiving phone calls about the presence of a large creature. Some saw a tall, muddy beast with glowing red eyes lurking around wooded areas. Others heard a shrieking noise that terrified even the police officers who were investigating. It's a cold case that's never been solved...the mystery of the Big Muddy Monster.

Today's True Weird Stuff - Welcome to the Multiverse

Do you remember as a kid it being called the Berenstein Bears with an "e?" It was actually spelled with an "A". How about the Monopoly man's monocle? Turns out he never actually had one. Oh, and Ed McMahon never showed up on anyone's doorstep during the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes. These collective false memories we share with others are called the "Mandela Effect." Is this a coincidental phenomenon, or part of something bigger in a multiverse reality?

Today's True Weird Stuff - The DUNE Project



Neutrinos are tiny, fundamental particles that may contain a key to better understanding the universe. Roughly a thousand trillion of these mysterious particles harmlessly pass through your body every second. In order to better understand them, scientists shoot an intense beam of neutrinos from a facility in Illinois to an underground detector 1,300 kilometers away in South Dakota. They call it The DUNE Project.

Today's True Weird Stuff - Rest In Peace

London in the early 1800s had a graveyard problem. A lack of space led to unsanitary burial practices as the smell of rotting corpses and overflowing sewers consumed the city. One such place was Enon Chapel, a church in which the pastor was getting paid to allow bodies to be buried in the chapel's basement. But a man nicknamed "Graveyard Walker" made it his mission to put an end to these filthy practices.
