Ken Layne with Desert Oracle Radio specializes in interesting, unusual and odd stories of things that happen in the Mojave and beyond. Ken has a new program just released for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend...

"What's going on with that mysterious Utah monolith? What's going on with Brendan Maze and his new "plague refugee" Substack newsletter? The small-town desert real-estate market is hot, for now, and he's got some tips on the sorts of under-appreciated properties you might be able to afford. Especially if 10 or 12 of you go in on it, together."

If you like weird and bizarre desert stories this is worth checking out.

I briefly saw the headline about the monolith and figured it had to be an amazing joke by someone with a lot of free time.

Indeed!  The monolith location mystery lasted less than 48 hours.  Here it is on Google Maps...

And as reported a couple hours ago it has mysteriously disappeared...

And the monolith already has its own Wikipedia page...

Okay now, don't be surprised if the Monolith shows up in some remote location in Death Valley or out on the playa at Burning Man.  Huh

It's more likely the mystery monolith will show up on eBay.
