Episode 2 - Cosmic Curtains and Murderous Minds

New Zonderlings

Ever wondered how a solar eclipse can turn a regular day into a spine-tingling adventure? Noah and Jeanette are here to whisk you away to the eerie yet awe-inspiring moment when daylight dims and Bailey's Beads dance along the sun's edge. We're packing our bags for Indiana, chasing the best seat in the house for the great American solar eclipse of April 8th, 2024. With a mix of excitement and caution, we'll guide you through the essentials of eclipse viewing, from the science behind the beads to the necessity of keeping your eyes shielded from the sun's deceptive allure. And as the temperature drops with the sun's retreat, we'll share why this cosmic event might have you reaching for a sweater amidst the daytime chill.
But hold on—our journey takes a sharp turn from celestial wonders to the shadowy corners of the human psyche. Without a single clown nose in sight, we bravely step into the chilling world of serial killers, from Jeffrey Dahmer to John Wayne Gacy. Jeanette recounts a personal story that's more hair-raising than hilarious, while I insist that my interests lie strictly in the stars, not the macabre makeup of Gacy's Pogo. As we emerge from the true crime depths, we return to gaze upward, pondering the patterns of solar and lunar eclipses with the humble admission that we're navigating the night sky as enthusiastic novices. Join us for a rollercoaster ride through the odd and the extraordinary, where we blend a touch of humor with the profound and peculiar.
