Cryptopedia - A Paranormal Podcast

TRIGGER WARNING: This story includes a form of Chronophillia known as Ephebophilia, and has a child bride. It's a long one this week as John guides Brandon through America's First Ghost Story. Witness as Brandon makes the single best joke in the history of Cryptopedia.   Discord: https://discord.me/cryptopediacast We now have episode transcripts available! https://cryptopediacast.wordpress.com/ --...

Brandon claims this is a follow up to the Tanuki episode, but John's not convinced. As a word of warning, we talk a lot about male genitalia in this one too, but it's pretty overtly sexual.    Discord: https://discord.me/cryptopediacast We now have episode transcripts available! https://cryptopediacast.wordpress.com/ --- Produced By:  Brandon Boyer Art:  Tom Hill Website:  cryptopediacast.com Patr...

It was bound to happen eventually, John has started to dip from the well of Yōkai. We channel our podcasting roots in this episode when we talk about scrotum for nearly 30 minutes (it's surprisingly non sexual).

John got like 3 hours of sleep before recording this one and he's leading it. So buckle in, because Brandon just rolls with it. Also the title of this episode has zero to do with the context of the episode, John used it as a placeholder and he thinks it was funny enough to keep.   Google ngrams: https://books.google.com/ngrams/ Discord: https://discord.me/cryptopediacast We now have episode transc...

We’re skipping episode 68, because this was the appropriate episode for 69 and John couldn’t prep an episode this week. As the title suggests we can’t overstate that both Brandon and John are adults who own homes. Enjoy an hour and a half of us being serious adults.   We now have episode transcripts available! https://cryptopediacast.wordpress.com/ --- Produced By:  Brandon Boyer Art:  Tom Hill We...

This week Brandon forces John to have  Redcap flashbacks, as  they navigate the story of Detroit's own quasi-mothman the Nain  Rouge.   We now have episode transcripts available! https://cryptopediacast.wordpress.com/ --- Also brief correction for episode 65: Mongooses are not Mustelidae, so they aren't actually related to weasels. Whoops, thanks to our Patreon Bird Schneider on the Discord. https...

This week Brandon blows up John’s story at minute 17.

This time Brandon and John plan the probable destruction of the human race with artificially selected nightmares, unsurprisingly this is not this week's Cryptid. Brandon leads research with this week about a particularly obscure creature and John attacks its body shamers.   Also John reads an... interesting story . --- Produced By:  Brandon Boyer Art:  Tom Hill Website:  cryptopediacast.com Patreo...

This week we design a hypothesis for alien motivation in abduction cases.

John is dumb, it’s Direct-Hit and Power Punch from the Micromaster Battle Squad.

This week Brandon talks about the mythic Pooka, it turns out John knows a lot about the Pooka. Anyways if Dungeons and Dragons is not your cup of tea, we actually get to the episode topic ~34 minutes in. Also John's calls on who's the best DM don't even necessarily represent John's own views, D&D talk just overrides any logic centers in his toy-addled brain. --- Produced By:  Brandon Boyer Art:  T...

It's the end of the decade and we try to do a retrospective, but John is terrible at focusing. This is the unintended conclusion to our secret three part series on southern Sasquatch! --- Produced By:  Brandon Boyer Art:  Tom Hill Website:  cryptopediacast.com Patreon --- Source: The Beast of Boggy Creek: The True Story of the Fouke Monster - Lyle Blackburn Bigfoot Roundup: Some Regional Variants...

  Hey, you play Halo Reach or watch the Mandalorian yet?

It's the Christmas season and in honor rampant capitalism this week we're talking guerilla marketing and commodification of myth! P.S. John started a YouTube Thing   P.P.S.
