Amateur Archaeologist & Weird Creature Expert Sarah Crosley is back on the show this week to say maybe the Bigfoots & the Hobbits of the world aren't just fantasy creatures...maybe they were & possibly still are real. The story of Ebu Gogo is one of those folkloric creatures come to life in the form of actual skeletal remains found in a cave on the island of Flores in Indonesia. Now, Homo Floresiensis is a part of the story of evolution on this planet, like it or not. It's time to start looking at these old folk tales as not only fun myths but actual historical accounts that were documented & kept alive in the oral tradition of storytelling.
