Bonus-wag: THUNDERBIRDS & THE MANDELA EFFECT

Paul Giamatti’s CHINWAG with Stephen Asma - A podcast by Treefort Media & Touchy Feely Films - Wednesdays

🏺🌊🐆 More Cryptid lore for your listening pleasure. Meet one of Stephen’s favorites, the legendary Hodag of Wisconsin. The horned Hodag that never reclines, liked the taste of humans, and just might’ve been a hoax that stoked tourism in 1890s Oneida County. The Hodag conjures Native American folklore of the underwater panther, Mishipeshu, who lives in the water and fights Thunderbirds (a favorite of Paul’s). But have you heard of Thunderbird sightings? They’ve been reported from just about every state in the union, and are rumored to fly down and steal children! In fact Thunderbirds have been shot down, and there are photos! Maybe you’ve seen them…or is it the Mandela Effect that makes you only think you’ve seen one of these famed winged creatures? What say you Chinwaggers? Let us know!   🏺🌊🐆 ========= Bonus Chin-Word: MISHEPESHU ========= New eps of CHINWAG drop Wednesdays for free... n(🧊) Make sure to follow us @chinwagpod 👉🏼 IG: https://www.instagram.com/chinwagpod/ Tik: https://www.tiktok.com/@chinwagpod Website: http://chinwagpod.fm YOUTUBE x CHINWAG Playlists ▶️ YT Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@chinwagpod Full episodes playlist: https://bit.ly/chinwagYT Animated shorts: https://bit.ly/chinwaganimations Send your stories, Qs, or thoughts to 📧 questions [at] chinwagpod [dot] fm Learn more about your ad choices.
