Today Josh tells us about the Aokigahara Forest in Japan, better known as the "Sea of trees" or the "Suicide Forest." In this forest nestled at the bottom of Mount Fuji in Japan, is a sea of horrors and unimaginable sadness. A popular des...

On today's episode of Sketchfest Josh leaves his entire brain at home on his dresser. We're having our own little adult spelling bee and let me tell you.... it's ROUGH. Anton unfortunately learned a thing or two on his endeavor to get the goat. This episode is a mess, but sometimes goofing around is more fun than using brain power. Let us know how you felt about today's episode and be sure to give...

It is never easy to talk about today's topic, but as American's; this is a very real and prominent situation we deal with on a daily basis.

Buckle up, yall, todays episode is a doozy. Today we tell the story of the Zainesville Ohio Zoo Massacre at the hands of Terry Thompson. Because of Terry, 49 out of 56 animals were slain and laws were changed in 2011 on animal ownership. This particularly upsets Chellsea because she yearns to own a possum. Its only right that trash_catt owns a trash cat. Pleasseeee let us know what you thought abo...

Howdy friends! Coming back with another episode about an asylum, at this point you'd think we're an asylum podcast. Hehe. Todays episode is about the Edwin Shaw Lunatic Asylum in Akron Ohio and The Ridges in Athens. Its giving very much Joseph DeJarnette vibes. Crazy how evil was so common back in the day. Thanks for listening today, tell Josh he did a good job. If you want to be a part of Sketchf...

In today's episode, we tell the tale of Dr. Joseph DeJarnette, a die-hard eugenicist from Staunton Virginia that fought hard for his right to sterilize the feeble-minded.

Let us know what you thought about today's episode,...

Its Josh's time to shine, baby. As you all know, we have brought on a new cohost since Jake's departure.. and now we're stuck with Josh. Sigh. To put him to the test, we came out swingin' with a good ol' fashioned conspiracy theory episode. In today's episode we address the sinking of the Titanic... that might actually be its sister ship the Olympic. We talk about cryptocurrency and how sketchy ba...

Today we had the opportunity to sit down with Rachel and learn more about her injury. The injury in question; Vertebral Artery Dissection (a whiplash injury).
