John hasn't been sleeping enough again, so buckle up for some mispronunciations that make zero sense while he nails names like Kwakwaka’wakw. Be sure to stay for after the plugs, because probably the best three minutes of this entire show happen there.

It's finally here. That's right, the lost episode of Cryptopedia is finally getting released. We're covering John's personal sleep paralysis demon the Jersey Devil.
