Vote Box of Oddities For People's Choice Award Here! Live Show Info And Tickets Here! What do a 100-million-year-old hammer and the equator’s midlife crisis all have in common? This episode, obviously. JG takes a swing at the London Hammer—a tool encased in ancient rock that either proves time travel, or that geology just likes messing with us. Then, Kat walks us through the wild world of misplaced landmarks, where entire places are technically in the wrong spot thanks to 18th-century surveyors eyeballing things like “latitude” and “reason.” We also visit the equator... and then shift 179 feet to the left because, oops, science did it again. It’s an episode full of mislocated facts, ancient anomalies, and the sobering realization that the Earth is bad at geometry. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
