119: Lake Monsters

We’ve all heard of the Loch Ness Monster, but what about all of the other lake-dwelling creatures? We do a deep dive (Get it? Because lake monsters?) into what lurks in the deep around the world. Hear about the motivation of monsters, what our ideal Thai supernatural soap opera would look like, and our hypothesis on ocean vs. lake creatures.   Amanda’s recommendation this week is the podcast, Just Break Up.    Sponsors - Chegg is a leader in online study assistance.
