Strange Realm - Ep. 127 - Aug. 31st, 2025

On this episode, we bring you a gigantic and glowing show as we talk about the weirdest, wildest things we could find, including a look into the idea that Britain ("Albion") was founded by giants who lived there before being settled by humans, as well as news that succulents can apparently be easily made to glow in the dark and the glow is recharged by the sun, a massive 18-floor missile silo in Kansas has gone on to the housing market for a $1.3 asking price, and there might just be a Jupiter-sized rogue planet entering our solar system! All of this and then, after the break, we continue our reading series as Frobisher reads more from "Beware of the Woods," by Tony Urban.
