Amanda and Sarah slip and slide into water cryptids. Sarah covers the Honey Island Swamp Monster, a foul creature said to live in the marshlands of Louisiana. Amanda heads north for the Lagarfljótsormur or Lagarfljót worm, a giant, serpentine beast spotted in an Iceland lake since ancient times. Other subjects covered include ghoulish beauty tips, the confounding appeal of Gerard Butler, and bad boyfriend-produced mixtapes.
Recommendations:
Amanda recommends the 1976 nature horror film Squirm, Sarah (kinda) recommends The Vanishing, a 2018 film based on a real-life creepy event.
