Fun fact about the hunt for El Dorado: while traveling, the soaniards threw away chunks of silver they found, thinking it worthless compared to the gold they were totally gonna find. The silver was platinum. They literally threw away platinum on the quest fir gold.

John White: "Hey, leave a note telling me where you're going if you leave." Roanoke site: Has a note saying 'Croatoan' on it Stories from the Croatoan: "Oh yeah, some Englishmen joined us a while back." Europeans: "What could possibly have happened?!?! What a mystery!!!!!"

One of my history classes (either middle school or high school) covered the Roanoke colony. In terms of the facts, they only had enough to fill one page in the textbook, but it really caught my attention. The idea of a colony's population missing and we still haven't figured out how or where they went is an incredible mystery.

Bricky: "Why _are_ we here?" DK: "Just to suffer."

I am in the camp that at least some of them were absorbed into native tribes. There are records from a hundred or so years later in which people who talked to the local tribes had some natives say their ancenstors had come on boats from far away and knew how to read from books like the English.

"Hay all the people disappeared from here writing the location of a nearby village, let's NEVER GO THERE." Dumbest mystery in history imo.

I know its an irl story but the similarities to a 40k story >space marines show up on a planet >violence arises >chaos foothold >huge plague >more violence >chaos is defeated.butatwhatcost >oh yeah 'no cost' >imports more ppl >everything is okay! >everyone dies

Who wants a detective ridiculous about Jack the Ripper? Or what about the New Jersey shark attacks of 1916? Tsavo lions?

Before watching this fully, I kinda of knew that Roanoke was originally the name of a river because I heard it from a YTbr called Roanoke Gaming which he named his channel after a wrecked spacecraft from Dead Space 3.

I OPENED THE FUCKING PREMIERE ON THE FUCKING DUCK SOUNDS IM SOBBING

Clearly Trazyn the Infinite started building his museum rather early in human history.

20:04 Bricky letting his inner Nightlord show a bit. Lol

I stand by the theory that the people of Roanoke were absorbed into friendly/local tribes. The town being raised and nothing but the walls left probably was someone’s decision from the local tribes as a sort of “warning” or memorial for any of the people lost.

It still baffles my mind how I come here to hear about the imaginary genocidal space worlds of little plastic toys and end up learning something as well. I love everything about this channel and podcast.

Every time you guys drop Gen Z slang, I age a year.

Had my fingers crossed for a cryptid episode, this is cool too though

Hank of the hill 😂😂 what a throwback, king of the hill ytps are the absolute best.

Man they forgot about book club again

"So, Starting with feet"

I remember hearing a really dumb theory about the disappearance of the Roanoke Colony. Someone tried explaining it by saying a Zombie Plague (Yes I wish I was joking) has somehow popped up and spread on the Island, infecting some, others getting eaten and then the Plague just died off since it was on an Island with no real connection to the Mainland. The Aliens theory and this theory are always gonna exist when it comes to mysteries such as this, I think some people do it as a joke since if you can't outright explain something such as a disappearance, you bring out the Aliens theory. Not sure where the whole Zombie Plague idea came from though in relation to Roanoke, since it's a very flawed theory that can be dismissed almost instantly given what we do know about the Colony after the everyone vanished.

"Proceededs to brake it down (dose the thugger shacker) Bam, bam, bam, bam , bam"

38:20 they recently did dna tests to try and find remnants and proof of the Viking visitors amongst the native Americans, but it seems the trail of tears wiped any of the natives with Viking dna out. ….however… they also tested in Iceland and found people there with Native American dna… like… enough to conclusively state that some of the First Nation tribes came back with the Vikings when they left.

The people demand an episode voiced by Shy, called Defective Ridiculous! 😂

Oh damn, Roanoke? This will be good.

Roanoke has always been an interesting topic , as well an event in time used for many cultural oddities and horrors. I love these Detective videos, wish I could hear them properly like the before times lmao.

I would like to see the Detective Ridiculous on the Franklin Expedition to find the Northwest Passage. The disappearance of the expedition and cannibalism allegations would make a good, long episode

Its so weird hearing my home state being meme’d on so hard xD the Detective Ridiculous version of the Croatoa story is a trip

Maybe I am misremembering but didn't someone find a contemporary account of a tribe with like 5 blonde haired "Native" children like 40 years later in the same area. Two of them were fishing or something and a dude just followed them because he wanted to buy or sell shit?

Loved the episode. I hope we get the oak island mystery soon.

I'm from NC and this has always fascinated me since we STILL can't confirm what happened

I love these history/mystery episodes.

Speaking of CoD, Warzone added Warhammer 40k skins and weapons. Playing as a guardsman with a lasgun is amazing. You also get a chain sword and other fun skins.

They went native.

I want it to be known that DK pronounced "Wanchese" horribly, horribly wrong.

love that it's an actual Mystery🙏

The island has a lot of history. A civil war battle occurred there, plus there was another colony on the island that ended up being very influential. Look up the Roanoke Freedmen’s Colony.

Yes, DK. I am wearing a cap rn. Thanks for noticing.

First off I just find it hilarious that Bricky had never heard of the colony of Roanoke. One of the main things I remember from AP US History that wasn't mentioned in the episode is that the area is a marsh and a big theory is that a large amount of the colonists might have died of malaria which led to the decline of the colony which led to the disappearance

Im from NC and we learn about this in like middle school, and my school took a trip out there to see the area where the colony was believed to be

I like the idea that they split up. Maybe a few decided to travel back to Englend and others decided to stay, some doing their own thing. I can see quite a few deciding to intergrate. I can see those with young going native

My favorite take on Roanoke is from the Werewolf: The Apocalypse (Revised Edition) rulebook. From page 39, "Garou [werewolf] bards sing epics celebrating the valor of the Croatan. This tribe was once the proud guardian of North America's shores. It gave its collective life to banish the Wyrm beast known as Eater-of-Souls, which had traveled to the New World with the Roanoke colonists. Only the carvings on a gnarled tree memorialize the Croatan's valiant deeds, but the Garou remember."

WHERES THE FANTASY EPISODE YALL PROMISED

52:13 nurgle would definitely take the opportunity, but nurgle also isn’t exactly going out of his way to step on anyone’s toes in regards to the other chaos gods. He’ll give a marginal effort but take a better opportunity if said opportunity presents itself. If anything he’ll ignore the colonists and go after the Indians who are dying and suffering way worse.

North Carolinian here. Manteo was baptized as a Christian and learned English and was completely integrated into the colony. Wanchez (Won-cheese) was also baptized and integrated but never really drank the coolaid. It’s a beautiful place in the Outer Banks also the colony is tiny as are the palisades which to this day still have croatoa carved into them.

I won't like I didn't like these at the start but they're really growing on me and I'm starting to want more lol 😅

I get that simple and clean. I get that ham. Also my head snapped at Sir Walter Raleigh.

Havent watched yet, but this one seems spooky cause I've heard of a place called Roanoak, so to know sketchy shit happened there is kinda wild and chilling

There was actually another lost colony in what is now Maine called Popham Colony. They made it about 1 year before the harsh winter, hostile natives and poor growing season forced them to abandon it. They did so by builting the first european style ship built in the americas, then sailed south to join the new Jamestown Colony.

I recommend that lemino video about this

In NC we also have hurricanes an could be washed out, whole coastal area is marshland.

One of the best AHS season

Do the Portlock, Alaska murder mysteries, and by extention, big foot, and cryptids.

Lore Lodge on youtube has a great video on the Roanoke colony. If anyone wants a more detailed breakdown.

Right off the bat, I'm wearing broken headphones.

The weirdest thing about Gladiator is that normally you juice up historical villains for movies. Gladiator did the opposite, Commodus was such an insane murderous jock stereotype in real life who would make everyone come watch him murder midgets with fake swords and little soldier suits in the arena and beat cripples to death or massacre endangered animals for fun that they toned him way down into Joaquin's slimy politician guy.

tzeench wanted to play banished but didn't have a pc so he kidnapped the colonists to play banished irl

I grew up in the rough area where Is Roanoke would have been. It is regularly hit by hurricanes 2-3 times a year something the Brits wouldnt have known how to handle, could survivors intermingled with the natives? Yea. They probably died in a flood and the settlement was washed away.

Nurgle brings endurance and acceptance of the fate you have been given. Tzeentch brings hope that your plans will work, like a boat etc, so he took them out at see if he did it. If Khorne was involved, they raided all others nearby If SLaanesh was involved they all probably did slaneesh stuff, then tried to bathe it of in an Icebath, got frozen under under as the hole froze and died pounding the ice feeling all those emotions. My money is on Tzentch being a troll, or Nurgle "blessing" them.

I would like you to know I just happened to open Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories right as KH was mentioned. Wild timing.

Homie shows up like, "Dude... Where's my car?"

the motive to find el dorato made alot more sense back then. it was alot less mythical.

Where's Roanoke Tales?

hMS arctic would be fun to hear their reactions

If youd go to a pub the brits infact are almost interchangeable to orks.

John white the first dad that went out for ciggys and milk lol

Is this casual butchery or have we entered ranked butchery? 😂😂😂

I really want DK to cover the Axeman of New Orleans

How did you lose it? Its in Roanoke you dingus.

YEAAAAAH I WROTE A REPORT ABOUT THIS IN MIDDLE SCHOOL

The masculine urge to look for El Dorado.

Shy, please make.these guys do at least one episode on Dante

man, title made me think they got RoanokeGaming to collab with them for this

It was Trazyn

This is an episode of Doctor Who waiting to happen

Casual butchery or ranked butchery? More like snapback butchery

Detective Ridiculous about the case how GW forgot about Sisters of Silence?

Are they really lost to history if we remember them to this day?

when you cant blame it on another chaos god just blame tzeentch

tsavo lions might make a good episode

Brutal Trial and Error

>don't worry, the viewers will get it The viewers did not, in fact; get, it.

There is no way they could have build a boat out of house materials that could withstand atlantic ocean waters. Most of them died from starvation or natives, maybe a few would be allowed to integrate with natives.

Why cant I find this episode on YT music?

Skaven when?

Regarding two boats: cool motive, still piracy.

What is that about Call of Duty streamers wearing caps? Is that a thing? It sounds random.

100 Bullets obligatory reference. CROATOA

My theory is they all died and he found them but raleigh made him cover it up So he could keep his claim

Why are there 2 brickies

Was probably kidnapped by the Dark Eldar.

He is not a 40 yo bald steamer.... having a forehead this wide is called being bald mate ;)

From the area. Love this. Pronouncing wanchese is like wan-cheese just sayin just sayin

It was definitely aliens. Specifically... Drukhari.

so happy he doesnt know

"one of the tablets is talking about female custodes?"

Yes , kingdom hearts , something that definitely isn’t “simple and clean“ when it come to the lore.

There is a bit of missing context here. The Europeans did bring disease, but this was before they understood spread vectors or societal immunity. As for their inability to make food. There were several factors of European vs NA soil/climate that forced crop issues. It was a basic case of people not knowing any better at the time and when shit got bad they withdrew to what they knew. Not excusing the actions of the settlers, but the tone at the beginning needed a bit more thought. Besides, without them we wouldn't be on this high horse to complain on.

Attempt #3 of asking for an episode of Ken McElroy.

Bloody Pirates!
