Episode 97 is a special show.  It kicks off with a second interview with Lady of the Dunes documentary producer Frank Durant.  It was recorded on location in Provincetown, with part of it being recorded from the exact location where the Lady of the Dunes, Ruth Marie Terry, was found in 1974.  The new revelations are discussed, as well as what's next for the documentary and the book.
The mood gets a little lighter as Restaurant Storytime makes its return. The fifth installment tells the tale of when simple cleaning goes wrong.  This is another true story pulled from nearly two decades of craziness working in the hospitality industry.
We go way Back In the Day to the 1980s and some of the oddest trading cards that have ever been produced. The 80s might not have had a monopoly on weird trading cards but bad movies, copycat cards, singers, television shows, and horrible real-world events are all things you could find on cards in that decade.
There's also a brand new Top 5 that shares some of the strangest discontinued breakfast cereals ever.  Strange flavors, strange mascots, it should be no surprise that none of these lasted long.
As always there's a new This Week In History and Time Capsule surrounding the last humans to walk on the moon(so far).
