7.12 | Skinwalkers: Southwest Witchcraft and Encounters on the Rez
The American southwest is a land, scarred by blood, shaped by tradition, and steeped in magic. Here the ancient Navajo developed a powerful system of healing and protection, but in dark desert canyons, this sacred knowledge was corrupted, and an evil drifted in like a whistle on the wind. And they called it yee naaldlooshii - the Skinwalker.
Join us tonight, as we explore harrowing encounters with these shapeshifting witches- shared by our own Navajo listeners and others who live on or near the rez.
And while we're not native and we’re not experts, we bring you these stories with good intentions, sincere curiosity and a few laughs, because as a lot of you know, this is a dark topic in hopes of illuminating that darkness, and make the shadows a little less heavy. So grab a drink, and join us in the Hole!

7.10 | Ohio's Area 51: Secrets from Peach Mountain
The Ohio River Valley is a special place- a window area where sightings of bizarre cryptids and UFO encounters are unusually high. Discreetly positioned on the ridges of Peach Mountain is GE Peebles, a secretive propulsion testing facility. There have been allegations that this facility is, in fact, Ohio's Area 51, back-engineering exotic ET technology on the mountain.
Why are there so many strange sightings here? Are they tapping into an ancient energy source- an energy that may have been recognized by whoever built the great Serpent Mound thousands of years ago, just a few miles from this facility? And finally, could the high concentration of paranormal phenomena in this region point to a dual purpose for this clandestine facility- anomaly containment?!

About Belief Hole | Paranormal, Mysteries and Other Tasty Thought Snacks
Through deep research and high-strangeness storytelling, three brothers explore paranormal encounters and unexplained events. Collecting freaky listener stories and scouring the dusty pages of classic Fortean texts, the brothers use high-production sound design to set the scene for alleged real encounters with, Dogman, Poltergeists, Bigfoot, Fairy Folk, Humanoids, UFOs, Shadow People, and Sky Creatures.. just to name a few.
Attempting to parse out the facts within folklore, the brothers of the Hole banter about everything from bizarre historical mysteries to emerging clandestine conspiracy theories, often challenging their own beliefs and sometimes each other's sanity. Good humor, good drinks, and good discussion! Have you ever overheard a co-worker shakily tell his story of a real encounter with a Dogman? Has your friend or weird uncle told you about his close encounter with a reptilian humanoid from the sewer? Looking to corroborate your grandma's true ghost stories? Were you born with a thirst for the mysterious? Well, sit back and pour yourself a big glass from the Belief Hole, my friend, and help us dig the weird!
