Cryptopedia is an exploration of the myths and legends that haunt the human mind. Each week Brandon and John will take you on a journey exploring the mysteries of the world, tackling the tales with a dash of skepticism and an extra helping of humor.
This time, we're talking about paintings and Britain's obsession with crying boys.

We open this week to talk about being too high and why the UFO hearings were lame. For the story, Brandon has something a little different for us this week as we take a detour into alternate histories with the Newark Holy Stones.
As a warning, we talk about some pretty flagrant racism in this episode as it relates to the episode topic.
