This Episode, I look into the very first story ever told, the Epic of Gilgamesh. Gilgamesh ruled over 4,000 years ago in ancient Mesapotamia in the ancient city of Uruk. This great epic details his life, the detaled visions of a great flood that would destroy everything on Earth, and also the very first bromance. Only question, is this story even true? Many say yes, and there were about to show the world the evidence when something unexpected happened that ruined everything. This is truly an epic tale you dont want to miss.

This episode I dive into the double murder and suicide of former WWE superstar Chris Benoit and his family. Chris Benoit was easily one of the most popular WWE superstars in the early 2000's and was poised for super star greatness. After failing to show up for scheduled events, WWE officials decided to send police to his residence to check on him. What police found was only described as a major crime scene that involved 3 dead bodies. Chris Benoit was blamed for the murder of his wife and their 7 year old child before killing himself. What could have caused him to do such terrible acts or was it made to look like he committed the murders and there were other forces at play? Tune in and decide for yourself.

So do the same and grab your favorite drink and sit back and take in the first half of 2025 with us.

This episode, I look into the friendly fire incident of the USS Liberty by Americas greatest ally, Israel. Towards the end of the 6 Day War, Israel launced an un-provoked attack on a ship in the Mediterrean Sea. Conflicting reports and confusion was the root of the deadly attack on American Sailos, who were there to monitor communications. The survivors of the attack say otherwise and that it was a planned attack on American troops. Why would the great ally of the United States attack an un-armed American ship? Tune in and judge for yourself.

This story time episode I take you guys back to Super Bowl Weekend in Las Vegas with Uncle Yak.

This episode, I look into the social media mystery of Andrew Dawson. Andrew was a TikToker who recorded what he and many to believe was a giant on top of a mountain in Alberta, Canada. This lead to a fenzy of followers wanting Andrew to dig deeper and find more evidence. This ultimately got Andrew caught up with some Governement agents that dont take kindly to his adventures. In a wild twist and turn of events that go from UFOs to stalking, it all ends with a wild twist at the end that still remains unsolved.

Mid year Drunk Podcast year in review. Doing things differnt this time around by doing a drunk podcast half way through 2024. We review events that happened from January 2024 til July 2024 and man was it a lot to cover. Have no fear, I'm joined by my two friends Andrew Garcia and Allan Prado to help me through the drunken madness. This episode went on for 4hrs, my longest yet and is also my very first recorded episode put on YouTube. If you can get through 4hrs of Uncle Yak then you might realize this may very well be my last recorded episode. No holds barred on this episode, just the way it should be!

In February of 1997, a man who went by the name Mel Waters, called into the radio show 'Coast to Coast AM' and told a story so bizarre and unbelivable, that it had millions of listeners worldwide wanting to know more. At first the story seemed boring, nothing more than a hole on a man's property in central Washington state. The story quickly took a wild turn when it was revealed it possibly had no bottom to it and could bring back family pets two days later. A seemingly bottomless pit situated in rual Washington that had the makings of being a portal to another dimension or alternate universe. Was Mel telling the truth? Or was he putting on the greatest story in history by fooling millions of listeners and still leaving people today scratching their heads.

This episode im joined my good friend and fellow veteran, Issac Preston. We go over and discuss the biggest show of force ever produced in history. Operation Paul Bunyan was the response to what is known as the axe murder incident at the DMZ of North and South Korea. Faced with the death of two U.S. servicemembers, President Gerald Ford formulated a plan that would finish the mission that was left unfinished and also show not just North Korea, but any other country in the world that the U.S. will not be bullied.

My oh my its been awhile! Sorry for the long gap in between episodes and for that reason I did an impromptu episode to give you guys a little something to hold you over. I explain why Ive been gone for so long and trust me its worth it.
