Episode notes
Showmanship Over Strict Rigor

- The hosts treat witnesses as colorful characters, often prioritizing entertainment over strict factual rigor.
Shoeless Terry's Barefoot Performance
- Shoeless Terry claims to go barefoot year-round and says Copenhagen, coffee, and aspirin keep him healthy.
- The hosts note his feet look like someone who simply removed shoes, implying the witness may be performing for the camera.
Uneven Authenticity Of Witnesses
- Early episodes mix real locals with clearly performative characters, creating uneven authenticity.
- The hosts doubt some witnesses are genuine and question whether the show staged parts of the folklore.
