American Unicorns

Hillery and Laura like weird things. They believe in UFOs, astral projection, telepathy, ESP, clairvoyance, spirit photography, telekinetic movement, full trance mediums, the Loch Ness monster, and the theory of Atlantis. They especially love animals. Especially the special creatures that are referred to as “cryptids,” which are legendary animals that are elusive and hid in the dark shadows and go bump in the night. If you are in the weird, strange, and unusual, we should be friends.

Champy “No time for losers 'cause we are the Champy-ions, of cryptid podcasts!” That’s right! On Chapter 19, we get a little wet as we go swimming for Champy, the lake monster of Lake Champlain. He can’t help it he’s shy and prefers the low spots of this popular recreational lake. Give the poor cryptozoological creature a break!

The Beast of Gévaudan This episode has a little bit of everything: history, throat ripping and a wolf/dog/werewolf. It's basically the cryptid trifecta! We hope you enjoy this quick trip to France on Chapter 18 as we examine the bloody spree of The Beast of Gevaudan. Poorly pronounced French words are on the house... Translation from image:This Beast is about the size of a young fawn, it attacks women and the children, it drinks their blood, cuts their head and takes it away. It is promised

The Flatwoods Monster Deep in the woods of West Virginia lurks the mysterious Flatwoods Monster. Is it an undiscovered biological creature? A visitor from outer space? Or just a typical barn owl? We prefer to believe the witnesses who saw this elusive creature know what an owl looks like… Hear about out CWT (current working theory) on Chapter 15! #Wegiveahoot #OldOwlFace
