Stranded, forgotten, and surprisingly resourceful—this week on The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro unearth the astonishing tale of the Tromelin Island survivors: enslaved people abandoned on a desolate speck in the Indian Ocean who managed to outwit fate for 15 years. Then, brace yourself for a prehistoric predator with a flair for theatrics—meet the galloping crocodile of the Cretaceous. Yes, it had hooves in spirit and a hunger in bone.

From lost islands to sprinting swamp monsters, this episode dives headfirst into evolutionary plot twists and historical footnotes that read like sci-fi.

Discover the odd, the unbelievable, and the strangely inspiring stories your textbooks politely ignored.
