In June 1909, disaster struck at the Canadian Soo Locks in Sault Ste. Marie when a massive lock gate failure sent four ships into chaos—two sank, and the Great Lakes shipping system ground to a halt.In this episode, we recount the worst lock accident in Great Lakes history, detailing how it happened, its cascading impact on shipping and industry, and how it forever changed maritime infrastructure. If you've never heard of the "day the locks broke," you're not alone. But this forgotten event still echoes in today's supply chain concerns.If you want to read the rest of this story check out.

Krysta, Laura and Dean acknowledge that due to a mistake on Dean's part, they will not be joined by author Gerald Rice and they get down to discussing New Jersey's most famous cryptid, the Jersey Devil. But first, Krysta hips us to some weird facts about deserts! Then we discuss the strange origin story of the Jersey Devil...how according to folklore it is the 13th child of Mrs. Leeds! We discuss the Pine Barrens, it's ecosystem and some famous folks who encountered the Jersey Devil. We discuss a few of the more famous sightings and some potential things skeptics say people are seeing. We take a few stabs at summarizing all we learned before saying our goodbyes!
