Sharks get a bad rap, but they rarely kill humans. In the case of Michelle Von Emster, they may have been blamed for human malfeasance.
When a body washed ashore near San Diego, California, it was a mystery as to what happened. With missing limbs and pieces of flesh torn from the body, many assumed it was a vicious shark attack. But upon closer inspection, that may not have been the case.
Many autopsies and a few reexaminations later, a shark attack was ruled out. So what happened to Michelle Von Emster that fateful day in April of ’94? Was it a tragic accident or something much more nefarious? Tune in for all the sad and sordid details.

So, let’s pretend the last five months didn’t happen (god, how I wish that were true…), and that this episode went up directly after the last :).
Anyway, I’m back with an episode that is sort of a shout out to the origins of this podcast: Ancient Myths! Specifically Mesopotamia. I really do love this era, and it’s sort of like the origins of all modern cultural lore. Today we’re talking about the Wonder Woman of ancient history: Ishtar. She was the goddess of love, but also war! How cool is that. She’s both a lover and a fighter, which is super badass. Anyway, listen to the episode for all the goodies!
