    87: Interstate 75 Fog Disaster
    Jan 5 2026
    On the morning of December 11, 1990, an ordinary commute on Interstate 75 between Athens and Cleveland, Tennessee turned into a nightmare. As drivers crossed the Hiwassee River bridge, they were suddenly swallowed by a blinding wall of fog—so thick survivors said it felt like driving into milk. Within minutes, a single crash involving a tractor-trailer hauling hazardous chemicals triggered a massive chain reaction, leaving 99 vehicles mangled across the interstate as fires burned inside the haze.

    In Episode 87, we unravel how this deadly fog formed, why no one saw it coming, and what first responders faced as crash after crash echoed through the mist. From haunting survivor accounts to the lawsuits that followed, this episode dives into one of Tennessee’s most chilling and lesser-known disasters—where visibility vanished, and lives were changed forever.

    Was it a cryptid? A prank? A sweaty guy in a bad costume? Who knows — but Bishopville turned him into a legend, complete with T-shirts, festivals, and even plaster casts of those famous footprints.

    Tune in as we head deep into the swamp to uncover how one wild night turned into one of the South’s strangest love stories between a town and its lizard.

    82: Serpents in the Sanctuary
    Oct 27 2025
    For our Halloween special, we’re slithering straight into one of the South’s most chilling and controversial traditions — the world of snake-handling churches.

    Deep in the Appalachian backwoods, there are still believers who take Mark 16:17-18 literally: “They shall take up serpents…” To them, faith isn’t just felt — it’s proven through venom and obedience.

    In this episode, we trace the roots of this dangerous devotion back to Cleveland, Tennessee, where preacher George Went Hensley first brought serpents into worship in the early 1900s. From there, the movement spread across the mountains, dividing into sects, defying the law, and leaving a trail of miracles, madness, and tragedy in its wake. We’ll explore how these secretive congregations conduct their fiery services, the deadly bites that made headlines, and the eerie persistence of a ritual outlawed yet still alive in hidden hollers today.

    Equal parts faith and folklore, this story is a haunting reminder of how belief can both inspire — and consume. So light your candles, lock your doors, and join us as we lift the lid on one of the South’s strangest and most spine-tingling legacies.
