#36 - The Florida Skunk Ape
Manage episode 436243022 series 3403661
If The United States were a 90’s sitcom, the state of Florida would be known for nothing if not being the Kramer of states; a kooky neighbor who is always getting into something wacky.
But for the better part of a century, Floridians from all over the state have reported seeing a strange, giant ape roaming their swamps and woods that leaves a vile stench in its wake so horrific it could knock a buzzard off a shitwagon. Equal parts shy as it is intimidating, this mysterious beast has successfully thwarted every single one of mankind’s attempts to capture it.
Is it a relative of the North American Bigfoot? Is it an orangutan that escaped captivity? Misidentified bear sightings? Or is it just a bunch of hooey?
Join Ivan, Nate, and Ivan’s roommate Peter on this special back-to-school edition of Super Mystery Bros, as they head down to Miami-Dade County to do some squatchin’ of their own (or is it skunk apin’?) and hopefully bring the Florida Skunk Ape to justice, once and for all.
