As the year starts to wind down and our ever changing schedules star to fill up with family related obligations....we have to put on hold the RESEARCH HEAVY DRIVEN topics that usually pop up in your feeds    BUT we can't just leave you guys hanging  without content or something to listen to while YOUR schedules start to fill up this holiday season so we bring you a fun topic that will span over 2...

Back in 2007 The New York Post dropped a BOMBSHELL story that highlighted the fact that the FBI was investigating an NBA referee for betting on games he was officiating and passing that information to a book working for the the Gambino crime family...and it ROCKED the NBA to it's core.....or did it? This should have shed light on the crooked officiating happing in the NBA up until that point but D...

This week we're giving you another album review AKA this week was hell of busy so we needed to do a "lay up" topic   BUT that doesn't mean we're cheating you folks out of a good episode!

Time has been a mutha .. .for both Art and Myself this past week so we're going to keep things more entertaining this week as we hit you with a classic movie review.    We've done this time of thing before in the past with classic albums and  have done movie reviews for films that were in theaters (as of the recording of those episodes). But, we've NEVER sat down and reviewed a classic movie that'...

For our final installment (for the month) for our annual Halloween Sppooooooooooooooktacular ...we're covering a subject very near and dear to our hearts...ZOMBIES whether we're talking about "Night of the Living Dead, "The Walking Dead", "The Last of Us", or "Resident Evil" the subject of zombies has taken the world by storm. But where did these monsters originate from?  Well, we welcome Vincent...

Continuing on our monthlong SPPPoooooooKtacUUUar of creepy topics for the month of October...   This week we're talking about the Hoia Baciu Forest! Don't ask us to properly pronounce that because we don't know as well as every where else we used for a source doesn't seem to know either. Either way what you need to know is this: This thing has TWO monikers : "The Most Haunted Forest In The World"...

Week 3 of our month long SPooooooooooktacular show case... We bring you Spiritualism. No not that weird thing people say when they don't want to say they're atheist ....No we're talking about that time in history where it was En Vogue to hire a medium and talk to the dead. Think... The Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland or pretty much any movie or TV show where they're doing seances.  We also dive...

Week 2 of our spooky "Halloween" themed topics... This week... THE LEGEND OF THE DOGMAN I mean really we should have just named this episode "The Michigan Dogman" since most of the lore of this BIPEDAL WOLF/DOG ...MAN originates from Michigan. But, as it turns out this potential cryptic has been spotted in ALL 50 states (even Hawaii) ! Is this an elusive cryptic? An inter dimensional animal? A bea...

It's October 1st (as of this recording) which means it's OFFICIALLY spooky season! So we're kicking off the month of October by telling you guys the legend of La Lechuza! La Lechuza is an owl witch from Mexican folklore that preys upon unbaptized babies and drunken men who mean harm? Villainous creature? or feminist anti hero? Well listen and you decid As always follow us on the stuff Merch Store-...

We all know about the drug "CRACK". If you're around our age you're also aware of the effects that drug had in our communities (particularly African American communities).  What if I told you this epidemic was an unfortunate  result of the CIA turning a blind eye to Nicaraguan drug traffickers bringing TONS of cocaine in to America to help fund the CIA backed Contras in their country? Seems far fe...

This week we kind of combined 2 episodes. The first half we talk about the Nazca Lines. The Nazca Lines are a series of gigantic drawings of objects and geometric shapes on the floor of a southern Peruvian desert by an ancient civilization. We have an idea of how these were made...but we don't know WHY. Many speculate it may be to communicate with ....ALIENS ...!!! The second half of this episode...

This week we revisit the music industry and look at a trend...or rather a marketing tool that listeners became keen to in the 2010's when looking at rapper with suspicious credentials.  This week we're talking about Industry Plants. What is an 'industry plant"? Wikipedia states it is: "A music artist associated with a label but appearing as if they are independent and self-made." and "A music arti...

A few weeks...months....or was it a few years ago....(?) we covered "The Yuba County 5" which was dubbed 'America's Dyatlov Pass" . During that recording we said "we'll cover that one sometime down the line".....well, welcome to down the line! The Dyatlov Pass Incident is an unsolved case where 9 experienced hikers disappeared and died in the northern Russian wilderness under dubious circumstances...

It's the most wonderfuuuuuuuuul tiiiiiiiime of the yeeeeeeeear! No this isn't a Christmas episode....for some it is....and for some, this is hell... but for us it's one of our favorite episodes to do because the NFL season is around the corner and we get to talk some FOOTBALL! So listen as we get EVERYTHING wrong (as we usually do)  and pick every divisional winner and our picks for the SUPER BOWL...

We welcome Art back this week from his one week hiatus from working with the lizard people. Speaking of non humans... this week we're doing a 'fun' topic.....Surviving an Alien Invasion....or if that statement is EVEN POSSIBLE.  We also bring some interesting theories of why there has been so many upticks in UFO's and UAP's as well as Art shares a video from NASA that seems to show an F'n DEATHSTA...

This week we are without the Brown Recluse, Art Trejo. But never fear I sent the bat signal up and Mr Jordan Olgin from the "Words R Hard" podcast is filling in.    So you know what that means, we're going to be covering another riveting story from the Pro Wrestling world!   The year is 1983. The WWF is still coming together  and in its infancy stages under the Vince Jr regime. This is a time peri...

This week we get back in to unsolved mysteries. This week we're covering the puzzling case of Malaysian Flight MH 370 that disappeared off the radar  (literally) 30 minutes after taking off in 2014. This case took the world by storm and almost 10 years later there's more QUESTIONS than answers surrounding what happened to this plane and the 200 plus passengers and crew. We go over a few theories a...

Here's a great topic that both Art and I both lived through... AS FANS. LOL.  We're addressing , from beginning to end, the epic beef that occurred between rappers on both coasts in the early to mid 90s dubbed "THE EAST COAST WEST COAST RAP BEEF" . In reality it was just a beef between 2 powerful rappers, but there was a lot of moving parts that added fuel to this dangers and deadly fire. So check...

Hope everyone enjoyed their 4th of July (in the States)! We sure did! We did so much that we didn't pick a topic to study! lol But never fear we bring you another great episode where we talk about a topic that is PARAMOUNT in both of our lives...COMEDY. We share our own PERSONAL top 10 lists of our favorite comedians.    AGAIN, OUR PERSONAL TOP 10. We also want to note that we both came to the con...

Last week we left you with the suite of lead singer of Mayhem...Dead. Usually this would lead to the dissolution of not only the band..but usually the scene in general (see gangsta rap and grunge). But this incident only served as a catalyst for bigger..and eviler things to come in the genre of Black Metal and the band Mayhem.  This week we lightly touch on Church Burnings (a future topic), Murder...
