Almost Canon

This is a short preview of Bonus Episode #3 from Almost Canon +. thanks to Dendrochronologists and Astrophysicists, We are able to go over some new evidence, found right in L'Anse aux Meadows itself, that almost certainly proves Vinland is located in the south somewhere. We then go over several other supposed viking rhinestones found throughout the east coast. This is entirely new stuff and Nick even has an epiphany! so sign up for Almost Canon+ and become part of the family!

On this Bonus episode we look deep at the evidence pointing to Vinland being somewhere other than Newfoundland. We go over some evidence found in the Meadows that points to Vinland being in New England as well as several other rune stones we didn't cover in our original viking episode.

As part of our unofficial strange stone structures in New England series, I've decided ti reedit and remaster one of my favorite episodes, episode 9, Vikings in America. Officially, we know vikings landed in Newfoundland around 1000 AD but the history books say they didn't stay long and this has never sat well with me. We know vikings were great explorers, always looking to the horizon for something new. so I find it hard to believe they found a vast new world and choose to only stay a few years and there seems to be countless pieces of evidence supporting the fact that L'Anse aux Meadows was only the first stop in this new world. If you enjoyed this episode please join out Almost canon +. We'll be dropping a viking centric bonus episode beginning of next week, that looks at more of these artifact left behind by the vikings as they traversed the wilds of the north east.

Even though we're two weeks out now, we honor D-Day on this episode by going over some incredibly disturbing and very frightening horror stories from the Second World War. This episode was meant to drop last week but due to technical issues I've patched it up and decided to treat our listeners with not only an Almost Canon + bonus episode but this early drop as well. So this week we talk with Mick Strange from Chasing Bad about several creatures seen by not only American GI's but also British and Indian soldiers as well. these creatures include the Inlabuut from Philippine folklore and also flying humanoids and pterodactyl like beasts called Indava Birds. We also share a story about a solider who is broken from war and darkness and the terrors brought down on an isolated Swiss village.

*Due to technical difficulties on this weeks episode I’ll be releasing the newest bonus episode from the Almost Canon + catalog. If you’re a Plus member keep your eyes out for the next week or so for a new bonus episode!*On this second, official bonus episode of Almost Canon, we take a deeper look at some of the stone structures me and Mark talked about over the past several weeks. We’ll read excerpts from the awesome books "Weird New England" by Joseph Citro and "Field Guide to Mysterious Places of Eastern North America" by Salvatore M. Trento all while throwing in my own two cents on the different sites.We thank you for your support, it makes what we’re doing here worth doing!

This week we talk with Vance, who had rented a house with his wife in Northern Cambria, Pennsylvania. Every seemed to be going great but it didn't take long for them to notice something wasn't right. Things would quickly escalate and the couple who thought they had found great deal on a beautiful little home would up and leave one morning after a frightening revelation. But before we talk with Vance Nick goes over a handful of recent listener stories that had been sent in. This may be one of the creepiest episodes of Almost Canon yet!

This week we talk with Mark from My Family Thinks Im Crazy podcast. As we're both from New England, we figured talking about a New England mystery would be best.Stone walls are often over looked. There are countless miles of them and their literary everywhere you look here in New England. But were they really been built by farmers in the 1800's and what about all the stone chambers, who built those? if not farmers then who? Was it Vikings? Maybe the Celts or Phoenicians? Or what about giants or an ancient unknown race of indigenous peoples? These are all questions we consider on this weeks episode of Almost canon podcast!

This week we talk with Matt Emch from the Youtube channel Planet 412. Matt take the time to tell us an incredibly frightening dogman encounter that happened to him while he was a teenager in his home town of Youngstown, Ohio. This is hands down one of, if not the most, terrifying dogman encounter ever told. Matt and his friends would hangout and play in the old abandoned Youngstown steel mills and one night while haging out around a fire with three other friends in the abandoned Jeanette Blast Furnace, something out of their worst nightmares joined their fire....
