Joseph & Gabriel Behill Season 3 Episode 24

Send us a text

Deep in the canyons of northern Mexico, the Rarámuri people tell stories about giants—real ones. They're called Ganokos, and they’re not friendly spirits or misunderstood creatures. These things are tied to an ancient vegetation god named Ganó, who was said to steal and eat children.

In this episode, we break down the legend of the Ganokos and how it's still very real to the Rarámuri today. We’ll go through their deep history, the culture they’ve protected for centuries, and the places they still refuse to go, because something might be waiting.

We’re talking about modern sightings, missing people, and what the Ganokos could actually be—giants, guardians, or something even worse.

This one’s packed. Thanks for listening
