From Vatican-certified miracles to possible hoaxes to potentially malevolent balls of light, this week’s episode is a reminder that the world is full of hope and horror. Oh, also lots of comically stupid grifters.
Hooray!
Highlights:
* Pope Leo XIV declares Rhode Island's first official miracle: a premature baby Tyquan (born 2007) came back to life after an hour of failed resuscitation
* The bureaucracy of miracle approvals
* We’re definitely on team Father Valera for Sainthood, who took care of sick people during a brutal 1860s cholera epidemic
* Once again, what are miracles but mysteries?
* Professional debunker Mick West claims to have spotted fishing line in latest Buga sphere video
* Original witnesses David Velez and rancher William Zuniga now appear as regular cast members on Jaime Maussán's very silly TV show as "UFO Hunters"
* Trust no one — known charlatan OR dogmatic debunkers
* Why might true believers make stuff up?
* The Min Min Lights actively stalk people across Australia’s Outback
* Aboriginals believe these are spirits of elders protecting the land; scientists suggest…bioluminescent owls(??)
* Fairy light vibes: beckoning witnesses to follow, then disappearing them forever
* Some people find the lights beautiful and peaceful, others feel terror, some follow and never return
* Trust your gut. It’s wiser than you think.
* PS - Tom promises to drop fewer f-bombs. (And we promise to bleep the ones that come through.) You can go ahead and let the kids back in, now.
Come on over.
