Probably Improbable Podcast

In this episode Carly teaches Sam about La Cegua, a bone-chilling creature from Central American folklore. This mysterious and fantastical woman can be found on isolated roads in Nicaragua waiting for ill-intentioned men willing to give her a ride or a ride (in the sexual innuendo way). But this beautiful woman isn't all she seems! Because of course not! Where is the interest in that? No. She's secretly an evil spooky monster who will make men insane! What does she look like? How does she make men go mad. Go listen and find out, silly! We'll explore old-timey-folklore-slut-shaming, Sam creates her very own bespoke Cegua and demonstrates her impressive cold reading abilities!

Sam briefly delves into one of the topics that most gives Carly the hebee-jeebes (as her mother would say), Black Eyed Children. Sam tells us about David Weatherly and his expertise in this not-at-all-real-thing, that still irrational terrifies Carly. It's October. It's spooky season. And it's time to be very careful about which drably-dressed-monotone-sclera-less-children you invite into your home. Hint: None! Don't invite any of those creepy-creepers into your home! Come on! You should know this by now!

This week Sam reminds us that winter is just around the corner, with everyone's favorite cannibalistic-supernatural-monster-being! The wendigo! This was a topic both ladies expected to be boring. They. Were. Wrong. This creature is bonkers! And metaphorical! Sam also delves into every 90s child's favorite horror series, "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark". Join us! Or don't, it's up to you. Just, whatever you do--DON'T EAT YOUR FRIENDS.
