Strange Realm - Ep. 092 - New Year's Eve, 2024

As we shambolically lurch towards 2025, John Frobisher Smith fights the flu and attempts, with his co-host Raven Black, to put on an entertaining end-of-the-year event. Featuring footage of the Sun generated by the best AI available, news about quantum teleportation, the miasmatic "chemical fog" engulfing the Southeast US, and a look back at predictions for this year and a look ahead at predictions for 2025! All of this and then after the break, we continue our reading series as Frobisher reads more from "Our Haunted Planet," by John A. Keel.
