On this episode of Expanded Perspectives the guys start out talking about how\xa0in tests on mice, alcohol activated the brain signals that tell the body to eat more food.\xa0The UK researchers, who report their findings in the journal Nature Communications, believe the same is probably true in humans.\xa0It would explain why many people say they eat more when they have had a few drinks.\xa0Rather than loss of restraint, it is a neuronal response, the Francis Crick Institute team says.

Then, recently someone wrote Lon Strickler over at Phantoms and Monsters about a strange Dogman like creature they saw one evening in 2013 in southeast Manitoba. Then,\xa0a team of scientists selected by federal officials in Seattle have come across new evidence in the mystery of D.B. Cooper.\xa0The Citizen Sleuths have been analyzing particles found on the clip-on-tie that Cooper left behind after he hijacked a Northwest Orient airplane in November 1971.\xa0Tom Kaye, the lead researcher of the group, told\xa0King 5 on Friday\xa0that a powerful microscope used in their investigation has found more than 100,000 particles on the JCPenny tie.\xa0He added that the group has been trying to identify where some of the particles, including Cerium, Strontium, Sulfide and titanium, may have come from.\xa0Then, David Wheatherly posted a rash of strange Sasquatch like sightings that took place in and near Fontana, California back in 1966.

After the break Kyle brings up a story of tragedy known today as "The Lost Franklin Expedition". \xa0The\xa0HMS Terror and Franklin\u2019s flagship, HMS Erebus, were abandoned in heavy sea ice far to the north of the eventual wreck site in 1848, during the\xa0Royal Navy explorer\u2019s doomed attempt to complete the Northwest Passage. All 129 men on the Franklin expedition died, in the worst disaster to hit Britain\u2019s Royal Navy in its long history of polar exploration. Search parties continued to look for the ships for 11 years after they disappeared, but found no trace, and the fate of the missing men remained an enigma that tantalized generations of historians, archaeologists and adventurers.
