Have you ever felt a chill run down your spine as the legendary Robert Stack, clad in his iconic trench coat, introduced another eerie tale on 'Unsolved Mysteries'? The nostalgia is about to hit you hard as we journey back to the origins of this phenomenon that began as a TV special in 1988.

 From sharing our fond and funny childhood memories of watching the show while munching on penny store candy, to discussing our own hair-raising experiences with the unknown, we cover it all. Buckle up for a deep dive into the mysterious, the unexplained, and the downright bizarre.

What's the scariest thing you've ever heard in the dead of night? For us, it was the sound of a baby crying in the woods near Moro Road. We recount this chilling experience and contemplate why it is that white people are the ones who often claim to see ghosts, while minorities report UFO sightings.

In the spirit of Robert Stack, we also question societal attitudes towards the paranormal and explore some of the most intriguing episodes of 'Unsolved Mysteries' – from UFO sightings in Mexico to the haunting incident in Rendlesham Forest.

As a cherry on top, we reminisce about the lighter side of our obsession with 'Unsolved Mysteries,' including a laugh-out-loud tale of Aaron's aunt Marie's pen-pal relationship with Dennis Farina, who took over the show after Robert Stack.

So, whether you're a die-hard Unexplained Mysteries fan, or just a casual listener intrigued by the unknown, join us for this humorous, nostalgic, and at times, spine-chilling trip down memory lane. You never know, we might even solve a few mysteries of our own!
