12: The Case of the Unbreakable Code and the Maid of Orleans

Grab your magnifying glasses and detective notebooks, gang! This week's Mystery Inc Podcast takes you on a far-out adventure, making pit-stops in the groovy and ghoulish corners of history. As we journey through the cobwebbed corridors of enigmatic tales, your hosts - the daring Waters brothers - unravel two fascinating riddles.

In the first half of the show, Shane sets the stage with a brain-bender straight out of a haunted library - the mysterious Voynich Manuscript. This centuries-old, bewildering book keeps even the smartest cryptographers scratching their heads with its cryptic language and mystifying illustrations. From its perplexing history to the ceaseless efforts of code-crackers, Shane traces the spectral footprints that this manuscript has left behind.

The scene then shifts to the middle ages as Josh uncovers the tale of the maiden who spoke with angels - Joan of Arc. With her incredible story stretching from humble beginnings to leading an army and an unfair trial that led to her untimely demise, Josh paints a picture of the Maid of Orleans that's as vivid as it is perplexing.

Keep your wits about you, fellow detectives, and we'll catch you on the flip side!
