Pineapple Pizza Podcast

Today we do not have a special meal to serve. No new myths or cryptids or urban legends to fill the minds and satiate the imagination of our wonderful patrons. No, today we have a message of love and appreciation. Today we say good-bye. In this episode, we recount the meals we've cooked up, the laughs and struggles we've had along the way, and what the experience has meant for your hostesses. We thank you for the love and support you've shown our quirky little restaurant over the past year and a half. It has been an honor to serve you. Remember, no matter how you slice it, you're awesome, and we love you.

Ashley's final Story by the Slice dives into some wild tales about animals on meth to determine what's fact and what's fiction. Should you be worried about methed out alligators? Are attack squirrels raised on a steady diet of methamphetamine an actual thing? There's only one way to find out…unless you want to do the research yourself, but we think this dish is pretty tasty.

This dish contains disturbing content and listener discretion is strongly advised prior to consumption. The tokoloshe is a teeny, tiny, terrible tormentor of peoples across South Africa. The little being, who has been treated as a joke by much of the Western world, is thought to be a very real threat to the region. Tied to everything from theft and fires to assault and death, this creature seems to exist only to cause trouble. But the truth behind the tokoloshe and what it means for many may be darker than the creature itself. A racist past, a violent present, a scape goat, and a witch hunt. Don't mess with the tokoloshe.

Ashley serves up the sweet release of death as the starter course for our South African triptych. After a brief sampling of the country's history, it's time to dig in to search out the origins of death with the Bantu myth about the chameleon and the lizard. It turns out sometimes procrastination has some pretty serious consequences, but we promise, even if this is your last meal, it's a dish worth dying for.

Cults are not always sinister. Similarly, cult leaders are not always manipulative sociopaths. Sometimes, all they need is one deluded man. August Engelhardt, born with a silver spoon, was many things, and one of them was delusional, something he shared with other cults and their leaders. You might wonder the peculiarities of Engelhardt's delusion. It is nothing other than the obsessive yet interesting relationship he developed with the fruit with one of the hardest shells. This is a man that decided to give everything up for a life of nudity and a diet consisting of nothing other than coconuts.

A vicious creature with a taste for human flesh roamed the countryside of France for three years, between 1764 and 1767. Known as the Beast of Gévaudan, or La Bête du Gévaudan, this animal was described as appearing to be like everything from a wolf or dog to a hyena or lion. What began as attacks on chattel herders in a quiet corner of the nation quickly became a national sensation. Supposedly, the beast was possessed of supernatural powers and could decapitate its victims, then drink their blood. Hundreds of documented attacks occurred during this period, and neither soldiers nor the best hunters in the land could stop them. Theories abound of what or who could have been the culprit. Was it a werewolf? A serial killer? An exotic animal? Or something more familiar? We can only speculate, as its identity was never confirmed.

After briefly exploring the early history of France, she takes you on a spooky tour of the swampy terrain of the Yeun Elez, leading you to the unfathomable depths of the area known as the Youdic - a place said to be the gateway to hell and its connection to the black dogs of Brittany.

We are joined by the punny and talented John and Patrick from The Dumb Found Dead podcast. They cooked up a special Filipino treat, the Batibat, aka the Bangungot, as this month's guest chefs. John whipped up the background of who the Bangungot is and what nightmare her presence brings. This sleep paralysis demon takes a particular liking to those who overindulge in alcohol and starchy foods (*cough* Patrick *cough*). Then Patrick shares some possible insight into why he too experiences sleep paralysis and a personal experience a friend had with the terrible being. Whether it's Batibat, the Kool-Aid Man, or an all-you-can-eat karma buffet, one thing is for sure, something terrifying is haunting our sleep.

In this week's Story By The Slice, Ashley discusses the trope of the tortured artist and the scientific studies that show there truly is a connection between mental anguish and creativity before serving up the searing tale of what really happened to Vincent Van Gogh's ear. You may think you know this story, but there's more to this slice than meets the eye.

Filipino folklore is filled with tales of giants, but the Kapre looms over them all. Though this mischievous being, still very much alive in the beliefs of the region, can be dark and dangerous at times, it is normally considered to be good-humored and playful. Its characteristics are rooted firmly in the history of the region and, surprisingly, the traits of other giants. The Kapre may be the most well-known giant in modern Filipino lore, but is it the OG?

Ashley starts off our Filipino triptych with an oral epic from the Palawan, an indigenous tribe (living in the province by the same name) that can trace its lineage back some 50,000 years. After setting the tone by exploring some of the rich history of the Philippines and the tribe that created this stunning tale, Ashley dishes the details on Kudaman, a traditional epic that takes 7 nights to perform. Don't worry; our version is significantly abridged for the sake of Ashley's vocal cords. If you like feasts, magic, psychedelic experiences, and gorgeous purple herons, this is the audible treat for you! Please consider doing what you can to help ensure the survival of the Palawan and put a  stop to mining on their lands.

In this week's Story By The Slice, Lindsay shares the insane story of one of Japan's most famous unsolved cases: The Glico-Morinaga Case.

For our first wildcard episode of 2022, Ashley explores the historic mystery of the Man in the Iron Mask. While there have been many theories over the last 350+ years, could it be that the real question that can finally crack this case is what was his “crime,” rather than what was his name? How was he connected to Nicolas Fouquet? And what could any of this have to do with the diamonds pawned by Queen Henrietta Maria of England? You can decide for yourself if the real story is more or less salacious than the wild secret twin brother theory from the Leo DiCaprio film, but no matter how you slice it, this tale and all of its drama are very, very French.Find Ye Olde Crime on your favorite social media or streaming platform at https://www.yeoldecrimepodcast.com/ (https://www.yeoldecrimepodcast.com/)To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at http://www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com (www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com) where you will find links to merch, Patreon, and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.

In this Story by the Slice Emily serves up some old-fashioned sole food. Yup. S-O-L-E. She dishes on the history of a rather unusual fashion that was extremely popular for nearly 300 years, the poulaine, aka the crackow. These shoes had unbelievably long toes that caused the wearers all kinds of problems not only through impairment of physical mobility. Why would anyone want to wear these and how could they have been such a big fashion statement for so long?To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at http://www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com (www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com) where you will find links to merch, Patreon and, a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.

Lindsay closes out our tour of Turkey with three urban legends featuring female leads. For starters, we'll take a bite out of the legend of Aynali Magara — a tale with a surprisingly explosive ending. Our main dish is the Myth of Sarikiz — the Fair Maiden of Mount Ida: a tale that will make you hate the patriarchy even more than you already do. To close out, dessert is the legend of Kiz Kulesi — a tiny tower with a lot of history that reminds us that it's never a great idea to lock anyone in a tower, like ever.To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at http://www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com (www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com) where you will find links to merch, Patreon, and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.

It's a lake fart! It's mummified Rasputin! No, it's the Van Gölü Canavarı, aka the Lake Van monster! The Van Gölü region of Turkey has been inhabited by humans for over 7000 years and ruled by multiple kingdoms. But there's another reported resident of the lake that's been sighted multiple times over the past century, the Van Gölü Canavarı. This large, serpentine being was even investigated by the government in the mid-1990s. Is there a giant lake monster making Van Gölü its home or could something else be causing all the strange encounters?To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at http://www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com (www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com) where you will find links to merch, Patreon and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.

This episode is extremely graphic, so listener discretion is strongly advised, as Ashley provides a detailed description of how this brutal torture was supposedly carried out. Our episode ends with a quest for truth: Was the Blood Eagle a real practice or merely propaganda?

Ashley kicks off our Turkish triptych with a tale as old as time…okay, fine, as old as circa 2100 BCE: the Epic of Gilgamesh. This king-sized meal begins with a brief history of Mesopotamia and the city of Uruk to whet your appetite before diving into our main course, the epic poem itself, which centers on the heroic journey of Gilgamesh and his ride-or-die BFF, Enkidu (who in our opinion is the true hero of this story, but what do we know?). To finish our auditory feast, Ashley offers a brief exploration of the deluge myth, so make sure your giant ark is seaworthy and make yourself comfortable because this could go on for 126 years.To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at http://www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com (www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com) where you will find links to merch, Patreon and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.

Look! In the middle of the road! It's a poorly drawn cow! It's a flirty dolphin! It's a Not Deer! For this month's guest chef special, Brad from the Doomsday podcast and his son Hunter stirred up a lot of laughter and incredulity with stories of the Appalachian cryptid known as the Not Deer. This multi-eyed, drooling, whirly limbed creature is certainly terrifying, but could there possibly be a natural explanation? Have a seat and settle in for a bite of Not Deer venison.Want to hear more from Doomsday Podcast?

This week's meal is a Christmas special straight from the Alpine region of Bavaria and Austria. Emily cooked up the story of Krampus, but, hopefully, with some new flavors you've never tried before! Dishes of contemporary and historical representations of the Christmas demon and his deeds and a dessert of possible inspiration for his origin make for a devilishly delightful meal.

Transylvania is known as the home of vampires, but did you know that Rhode Island was the home of America's last vampire? The United States had its own vampire craze fueled by tuberculosis and a medical community unable to treat or explain the dreaded disease. This fueled paranoia that deaths were not caused by disease, but instead by supernatural beings. Rhode Island's most infamous case, that of Mercy Lena Brown, and a lesser-known predecessor, Sarah Tillinghast, shared many uncanny similarities including ghastly conclusions to their tales.

This month, the pizzeria is visited by the talented Becky of Homespun Haints podcast. She cooked up some regional Appalachia-inspired specials to share with our patrons. First, she serves a little known tale of a possible Sasquatch encounter in Cracker's Neck Virginia, whose name is morbidly fitting, if this tale holds truth. The final dish of the night is the history of the six-legged Wampus cat of east Tennessee with a light sprinkling of meth hippos.Want to hear more from Homespun Haunts?

For this week's story by the slice, Ashley serves up the legend of the Lovers of Loch Maree, which she came across while researching her Scottish mythology episode. This tragic, and somewhat bizarre, story centers on a pair of tombstones set facing each other on one of the small islands in Loch Maree. If you think you've made some mistakes in your romantic life, let me assure you that you have nothing on these forlorn lovers.To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at http://www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com (www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com) where you will find links to merch, Patreon and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.

Ashley kicks off our Scottish triptych with a myth about the Corryvreckan Whirlpool that centers on a young Scandinavian prince's attempt to earn the Lord of the Isles's daughter's hand in marriage. The appetizer course touches on how this myth was almost certainly shaped by Scotland's history, and for dessert, Ashley offers up a discussion of Charybdis, one of her favorite figures from Greek mythology. If you're interested in a fun, if chaotic, journey, we think you'll enjoy this opening to our tour of Scotland. And we PROMISE no virgins were injured in the making of this episode.To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at http://www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com (www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com) where you will find links to merch, Patreon and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.

This story by the slice focuses on one of Ashley's favorite topics: cocaine hippos! Ashley explains how they came to be in Colombia (hint: drug trafficking), why they are flourishing in this non-native country, the impact they are having on the environment, and what the future might hold for these majestic water horses.To stay on top of all the latest from Pineapple Pizza Podcast, be sure to check out our website at http://www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com (www.pineapplepizzapodcast.com) where you will find links to merch, Patreon and a variety of ways to support the show, as well as detailed episode descriptions and regional specials.

This week is a Wild Card meal and Emily went all out. She decided to create a special dish inspired by the deepest fears of each host. Lucky Ashley is up first with a dish straight from her nightmares, coulrophobia, or the fear of clowns. From haunted clown inspired items to an entire haunted clown-themed motel, this horrifying meal did not inspire laughter for her. Next, Lindsay got a heaping plate of pediophobia, or the fear of dolls. This bite begins with a game that teaches players how to create haunted and possessed dolls and ends with one of the most terrifying haunted doll stories out there, Peggy the Doll. Last up is Emily with a dish that will haunt her dreams, spectrophobia, or the fear of mirrors. The mirror in this final bite reveals ghastly images like something ripped straight from horror movies, the mere idea of which will deter Emily from staring too long at her own reflection... maybe.This episode is sponsored by Stamps.com.
