    133: Some Heroes Wear Mittens & a Rain Jacket
    2025/12/23
    One minute, you’ve just picked up dinner and you’re on your way home. The next, the road ahead of you is completely obscured by snow. No matter how well your vehicle handles in snow or how close to home you might be, no one can drive in zero visibility.

    132: The Silverwood Family Shipwreck
    2025/12/17
    There are moments at sea where experience, preparation, and even luck mean nothing. Where a single sound in the dark can turn a lifetime of knowledge into pure instinct. Tonight’s story is one of those moments. A family, four children, a dream years in the making—and a reef that should not have been there. This is the story of John Silverwood, the Emerald Jane, and the night everything changed.

    131: Trail Mix - Deadly Flora
    2025/12/09
    There’s something appealing and romantic about foraging and there’s a special kind of calm that comes from working in your yard or garden. But when plant encounters go wrong, you don’t just get a bad taste in your mouth, it could be your last meal.

    130: The Wilcox Expedition
    2025/12/02
    Imagine this - you're standing on a mountain ridge almost four miles above sea level. The wind is howling, and screaming, and you’re barely able to stay standing. The world around you is white in every direction. You’re cold and you know that there will be no rescue tonight. You’re experiencing a fierce storm on Denali. A place that can be deadly when the weather turns . Luckily you’re only imagining this scenario but in the summer of 1967, twelve men walked straight into one of the worst storms the mountain had seen in decades. Only five returned.

    128: Unsolved in Colorado - Tom Young and Keith Reinhard
    2025/11/18
    In a small mining town in the Colorado Rockies, a man and his dog walked into the mountains and never returned. Less than a year later, another man working in the exact same location took interest in the disappearance from the year before. Soon he would follow the same trail and he too would vanish. One mountain, two men, countless theories.

    127: Unfinished Canvas - The North Cascades Disappearance
    2025/11/04
    It was supposed to be a peaceful setting—an artist setting up his easel by the roadside, surrounded by the wild, glacier-cut beauty of Washington’s North Cascades. But for days, his car would sit abandoned. His canvas, unfinished. And the man himself—gone. What happened to Alexander Pisch?

    126: Sunday Scary - Haunted Hikes
    2025/11/02
    Some trails are just trails, a good workout, fresh air, a chance to clear your head, and maybe a nice view. And then there are the other ones. The ones that feel… different. Maybe it’s the way the trees seem to close in around you. Or how the silence gets heavier the farther you go. Sometimes, it’s the way the hair on the back of your neck stands up when you catch a shadow. In this episode these are trails that are beautiful by day and eerie by night.
