What the heck is a Stafford William Mortimer Murgatroyd Spectacular you ask? Well, you see, Stafford Murgatroyd won a contest a while ago and his request for an episode was anything on New Zealand where he is originally from. The only caveat- we had to name it the Stafford William Mortimer Murgatroyd Spectacular. So, we are naming this episode just that, The Stafford William Mortimer Murgatroyd Spectacular. Now, everyone up to speed??? Great. New Zealand time! More importantly, the Kaikoura Lights, and incident in 1978 that to this day has not been explained. We talk the incident, hear from those involved, and piss off Conspiracy Bot along the way so buckle up!
