The Mysterious Pals have learned so much over the last 74 weeks but still we are at a crossroads. The space we are in is so crowded and we feel that we could do more to be different while still having fun along the way. So we have decided to go on hiatus until we figure out the best direction for the show and how to be different from all the other shows about history and mysteries. While we have some ideas, we need time to develop and test out new ways of delivering and talking about this type of content. Sometimes you need to knock it all down and start over to make something better.

Also, this is an open question to anybody who has listened to us, what do you think makes for an interesting show about mysteries? Any feedback could help us in this revamp.

While the Mysterious Pals will be on a break for a while, you can still keep up with us on the Watch Pals (watchpals.show). So thank you to everyone who has supported us through your comments, emails, and just listening or watching. We will be back soon! -------------------- MUSIC Theme Music by Dethlehem (dethlehem.bandcamp.com) -------------------- SOCIAL LINKS Website: www.mysteriouspals.com Email: mysteriouspalsonline@gmail.com Youtube: @MysteriousPals Facebook: @mysteriouspals Instagram: @mysteriouspals X/Twitter: @mysterious_pals Podcast Feeds: www.mysteriouspals.com -------------------- ABOUT THE MYSTERIOUS PALS The Mysterious Pals is a mysterious show about history and friendship. #mystery, #history, #unsolved, #unsolvedmysteries, #mysteriouspals, #staymysterious, #philosophersstone, #emeraldtablet, #ancienthistory

The Emerald Tablet is a cornerstone of Western esoteric thought and has fascinated alchemists, philosophers, and mystics for centuries. Over centuries the tablet has inspired countless interpretations, blending science, spirituality, and metaphysics. However, its origins, authorship, and meaning remain shrouded in mystery.

Starting in the 1990s a small percentage of residents of Taos, New Mexico began reporting hearing a hum. Those affected report it as a vibration, while others hear it as a tone. Regardless, those affected claim sleep disturbances, anxiety, headaches, and memory loss. Despite scientific investigations, the hum’s location and source remain a mystery.
