About the episode
See The Box Of Oddities Live! In this delightfully peculiar episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro explore two phenomena that are equal parts baffling and brilliant. First, the "Angels of Mons"—were they divine warriors, hallucinations, or just an epic case of wartime wishful thinking? Either way, something peculiar happened over those World War I trenches. Then: behold the annual crustacean apocalypse of Christmas Island, where millions of bright red crabs migrate en masse, overrunning roads, homes, and possibly your nightmares. It’s nature’s strangest traffic jam—and no one knows why they’re doing it. Expect ghosts, crustaceans, and confusion in equal measure. Prepare to question everything. Even your seafood preferences.
