Strange Realm - Ep. 079 - Sept. 15th, 2024
This episode we bring you a windswept and wild look into the strangest and most fascinating news stories of the day, including news about a 'smiley face' found on Mars that could just possibly be an ancient strip-mining operation, and a report that NASA has finally discovered a long theorized layer of cold, yet fast moving, ions in Earth's upper atmosphere. We also examine the expedition of the world's oldest city found to date, which is located not in Asia Minor or the Middle East, but in Ukraine, and also look at a study which suggests the common diabetes drug Metformin has anti-aging effects on the organs of elderly monkeys, especially the brain! All of this and then after the break, we continue our reading series as Frobisher reads more from "Our Haunted Planet," by John A. Keel.
