Episode 83 digs deep, both into the past and into the ground.
It begins with the strange but true story of buried treasure on Cape Cod.  Who was Mabel Simpkins-Agassiz, and what was the odd object she had buried on her property?  And how is that object still around today?
Next, is a Road Trip exploring one of the beautiful towns of Cape Cod.  Dennis, Massachusetts is dead center on the Cape and is home to miles of beaches, culture, arts, history, and naturally shopping and restaurants.  Find out more about what makes this town special and a must for any visit to Cape Cod.
We go way Back In the Day to look at some classic New England convenience stores of yesteryear.  Sure they may have all sold basically the same items but some of these names are sure to bring back fond memories of local kids from the 80s and 90s.  Before 7-Eleven and Cumberland Farms dominated the region there were other stalwarts.
The 90s spawned some memorable commercial advertising mascots.  This weeks Top 5 gives a spotlight back to some of those beloved characters that did their best to sell whatever product they were associated with.  How many of these will you remember?
There is also a brand new This Week In History and birthday-themed Time Capsule that looks back at the founding of Netflix.
