But It Was Aliens

#286 Organism 46-B - Deadly Cephalopod Beneath Antartica

But It Was Aliens

Show Notes

The paranormal comedy podcast where we probe the discovery of an alleged ancient water beast beneath a Russian research station in Antartica. You can google this one folks (parts of it) - scans suggested the existence of a lake beneath the ice of Vostok, Antartica in 1974 and this fresh water lake was verified in the Journal of Glaciology in 1993. An ancient lake undisturbed by humanity for millennia - what’s the worst that could be down there? A horrific apex predator, it turns out. A predator that resembled a giant octopus or squid but that displayed intelligent thought and could assume other shapes to fool it’s prey. This thing was deadly but was all as has been reported? Did the military cover this one up? All that and more on this week’s episode.
