The Dyatlov Pass Incident w/Lauren Thoman

In 1959, nine friends went on a hike in Russia's Ural Mountains and never returned. Their bodies were found with a bizarre set of injuries, including head trauma, internal bleeding, exposure, and traces of radiation. 60 years later, the Dyatlov Pass Incident is one of history's great unsolved mass deaths. Pop culture writer Lauren Thoman (Collider, Looper, PopSugar, Parade, Vulture) visits the show to talk about death in the mountains, and why this real-life story would make a great horror movie.
