About the episode
In this episode of The Box of Oddities, we explore two mind-boggling tales: the eerie case of Patient X, a medical mystery so bizarre it left doctors questioning everything they knew about the human body. Was it science? Was it sorcery? Or was it just a really weird Tuesday? Then, we unearth a long-forgotten, top-secret speech—written just in case the Apollo 11 astronauts didn’t make it back from the moon. Because nothing says “historic achievement” like also planning for catastrophic space doom. Who wrote this chilling message? And why does it read like the script for the world’s most unsettling Oscar speech? Join Jethro and Lindsay Schnebley, who are sitting in for Kat on a journey through the weird, the unsettling, and the oddly hilarious. Because history is stranger than fiction—and sometimes, way darker. #TheBoxOfOddities #MedicalMystery #Apollo11 #NASASecrets #WeirdHistory #PatientX #Podcast If you would like to advertise on The Box of Oddities, contact [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.
