Let's Get Haunted! Episode 210: Yamashita's Cursed Treasure

In another chaotic (yet educational) installment of LGH, we get our fill of all sorts of haunted loot as we claw our way through the legends to search for lost WWII era gold! Join us as Nat leads Aly on a historical adventure to investigate a rabbit hole so deep it allegedly involves a dictator, a rogue treasure hunter, and even the CIA! This isn’t just another tale of shiny things waiting to be found- it’s a story of war, betrayal, hauntings, and a possible government conspiracy. Buckle the f up Haunties, because today we’re talking about *Yamashita’s Cursed Treasure.*

    I’ve been following you since you did monsters amonung us colab but never thought to put the voices to faces but nah y’all look like the fancast that the majority of the internet agrees should play you in a feature film series.

  42. @andypandy2713 on March 16, 2025 at 3:10 am

    The Holiday Inn in downtown San Antonio, TX has one of those trap door type things. It used to be a prison and people would watch executions in what is now the hotel lobby

  43. @FlameVulpin14 on March 16, 2025 at 3:13 am

    I have loved the video episodes so far. I’ve been listening since I listened to you all on the SP7 podcast back in the day so I can’t really say if I pictured you all looking different based on your voices.

  44. @J.Carstens on March 16, 2025 at 3:13 am

    Pleeeease don’t put personal hauntings behind a paywall 🙁 As a longtime listener since SP7 but also just a big podcast consumer, I seek out shows that have a healthy amount of off-topic banter in addition to the episode topic and I imagine there’s more people who value it than not. Don’t feel pressured to hide what makes your dynamic unique as presenters!
