This week we have a story that starts with a rising golf star and ends with the headline "The Radium Water Worked Fine Until His Jaw Came Off.” https://t.co/41U9nIHWkz

Jazz it!

From 1917 to 1918, New Orleans was thrown into a panic by a man with an axe and a very specific victim MO. To this day, no one really has any idea who the shadowy figure targeting Italian grocers was, but we've sure got some ideas! https://t.co/jNGonL0kJt

We all know that reading can take you on all sorts of adventures, but WHAT IF there was a book that could lead you to a real buried treasure? https://t.co/F0M2E3IBnK

[Afternoonified @afternoonified]

Probably at least 75%

Where would YOU like to send your decomposing corpse?

This week we're heading down to the farm and asking the question "What happens after I die?" As it turns out, a lot of kind of gross stuff happens to our bodies, but the good news is that there are places where those bodies can go to be studied. https://t.co/2S3YD7Yj1f

In 2008 the body of a mysterious creature washed up on the shores of Montauk, New York. Theories on what the so-called "Montauk Monster" could be varied from a regular turtle to an escaped genetic experiment. https://t.co/PfctaIOcFs

It is not recommended.

We're just going to be upfront with you...this mini is about the art of farting. Professional Flatulist is a job title held by real people through history and it's finally time for them to have their moments in the sun. https://t.co/h9ZlN16zcW

Really buried the lede on that one.

[Afternoonified @afternoonified]

We are very serious archeologists.

[Afternoonified @afternoonified]

In 1933 a man known as the "Indiana Jones of Architecture" went missing during a walk near his estate on Inishbofin Island in Ireland. There are several theories floating and Sara and Emily intend to get to the bottom of this mystery in around 14 minutes. https://t.co/plNX4X6YPR

Gef is just the goddamned best.

What pre-teen girl DOESN’T love ventriloquism?

[Afternoonified @afternoonified]

It's time to head on down to the farm and get silly with the story of England's most charming weasel! In 1931 a family on the Isle of Man was visited by an interesting little creature with the mouth of a sailor and a flair for the dramatic. It’s Gef!

Back in the 1800 and whatevers, people had a much looser idea of what the word "entertainment" meant. https://t.co/EzJqVO62bE

[Afternoonified @afternoonified]

Not everything had to be literally true!

[Afternoonified @afternoonified]

We’re just not that invested in France, tbh.

[Afternoonified @afternoonified]

Our series on France's most infamous Queen comes to a close and, full disclosure, she didn't have a great time. There's tips on how to win over your married girlfriend, a really gross tower, and reasons who you should never count on your family. https://t.co/7MOLUj9TsL
