From the Vermilion in Ohio to the Ganges in India, one thing you can rely on rivers to do is provide us with tales of high strangeness. On this episode we explore tales of disappearing boatmen, chained entities terrorizing those unfortunate enough to cross them, a dark spirit emerging from the jungle, and so much more.
Also on this show: Paul explains one of England's more unusual hobbies, there's a hipster on a pogo stick, and Brennan plays Rodence Nightingale.

Visions of the Time Fish
The most exciting stories are the ones that connect across different times, locations, and people, and on this episode we have not one or two but three different occasions where that's happened. Shadow people will menace, dreams will be shared, and if you look quickly enough at just the right time, you'll catch a vision of the Time Fish lording over it all.
Also on this episode: Paul as the new Duke, Brennan vs. birds, and one weird trick to banish your self doubt
