Molly and Abigail discuss the dangers of being a Kennedy, the unfortunate history of the Hope Diamond, the terrifying temple guards from Legends of the Hidden Temple, and what Nicolas Cage and King Tut have in common.

Space is kind of like the deep ocean. It’s mysterious and scary, and it contains creatures we have yet to discover. It’s no surprise then, that astronauts have experienced inexplicable things during their journeys through the cosmos..
