An Interview with Dr. Emily Zarka of Monstrum - The Paracast

A variety of podcasts, interviews, and books of the cryptozoological kind. First off an interview by Gene Steinberg and J. Randall Murphy with the an English professor who writes for and hosts for “Monstrum,� the YouTube channel that looks at the complex histories and motivations behind some of the world’s most famous monsters, including Mothman. Zarka's latest video podcast is Bunyip: Australia’s Mysterious Amphibian Monster. This episode uses Aboriginal stories, historical records, and fossils to explore the "bunyip legend." In Introducing Three New Books, Australia's own Malcom Smith presents the cryptozoological case for the existence of this cryptid in one of three new books he has recently published: The Truth About Bunyips, the other two being about sea serpents. Which brings us to back to United States with the podcast Afraid of Marine Cryptids, where David Goudsward discusses the marine cryptids off Florida, the Southeastern Coast, and the Caribbean up to New England, the subject of his fun new book, Sun, Sand, and Sea Serpents, published by Anomalist Books. As this "prolific researcher and esteemed author who combines humor and hubris with a love of history" says: "The problem with sea serpents is they have no sense of geography." Let's just say, that's one problem. (PH)
