In our inaugural episode the Peripheral team each covers a different spooky island. This episode has it all: future ghosts, polenta, burgling, bros who are scared of dolls, old rich douche bags, and coffins full of dismembered body parts.
Join the Peripheral team as we regale you with horrors from a few of our favorite sub-continental land masses surrounded by water….

Mariah’s Bonus Island – The RW/RR Challenge Island
“Survivor 2: Unlimited Hard A”
The Real World/Road Rules Challenge is the Peripheral team’s favorite show of all time. The Island was a particularly terrible season that haunts all of us.
Corrections:
*Lindsey incorrectly identifies Hart island as the island where Typhoid Mary was confined, North Brother Island was where Mary was quarantined for two decades.
*Lemmy Kilmister was alive at the time that this podcast was recorded, which is why our conversation about him is weird. Also, the supergroup Lindsey mentioned was Probot. Remember PROBOT, guys!?
