Hysteria 51

We're all going to die!! Or at least that is what the dozens of you who suggested this story seem to think. Surprisingly though, this time Conspiracy Bot is not involved, so we have that going for us. But, A.I. is involved, and Google of course. Google engineer Blake Lemoine has came forward and said a chatbot, LaMDA, is self aware. Has feelings, and fears being turned off.  Is this the technologi...

If there is one thing we are sure of here at Hysteria 51, it’s that castles are haunted. Scooby-Doo taught us that from the jump and we are not about to forget it. But what makes a castle stake the claim of Most Haunted Castle in the World??? That’s a tall claim, but it’s just what Leap Castle in Ireland boasts. From its mysterious beginnings to its blood shed through the years to its lingering gh...

Congress held its first public hearing on UFOs in more than half a century. U.S. intelligence officials Scott Bray and Ronald Moultrie as well as members of Congress from both sides of the political aisle came together top talk unexplained aerial phenomena (UAPs). Was it a groundbreaking step into a world of disclosure? Or a maybe big plate of nothing wrapped in lies? We talk (argue) that this wee...

You see them all the time when driving, signs saying PSYCHIC in neon. It's the home of the tarot card readers. But, is there anything to it or is it just a cash grab and time suck like everything else in our lives?? Well, this is NOT the podcast to answer that, come on now. But we are going to talk tarot AND give each other readings on the show. So best case scenario we have at least a 10% chance...

Don’t you just hate it when you dump a body and forget all about it. Then decades of climate change come a calling and said body comes back to haunt you? No... just our robot? Well, sadly, he’s not alone as Lake mead in Nevada is at its lowest levels in history. That is making long forgotten things dumped in there to come back with a vengeance. Plus, we hop across the pond to the ever-weird Stoneh...

August 21, 1955 started off like so many others in the small community of Kelly, Kentucky, just another hot summer night. Lucky Sutton along with his family and friends were enjoying a quiet peaceful evening. But they were about to find out what was lurking in the darkness. They had visitors, ones not from this earth. After hours of siege from these beings, a gunfight, and visits of police, the ev...

He might see you when you’re sleeping but you can see him when he’s dead! Maybe… If they found the tomb of the real life, honest to goodness Santa then you sure as heck can, and that’s just what David tries to convince us of this week.

This week Brent convinces us we don’t have to be lonely; we can get plowed by an alien! And by plowed he means subjugated while the planet is stripped… Stripped of its resources, not the sexy kind of stripping. Or so warned Stephen Hawking, but that never stopped us before! Plus, David tries to convince us that a mermaid mummy that has been worshipped for centuries is a fake. How stupid does he th...

It's been 110 years since that fateful night in April, 1912 when, on her maiden voyage, the largest ocean liner the world had ever seen was struck by an iceberg and sank in the cold Atlantic Ocean... Allegedly! Are the history books true, or were slightly more nefarious agents at play that caused the death of more than 1500 souls? We talk everything from insurance fraud to mummy curses this week a...

Ah, love… Specifically true love. Soul mates even! Is there anything better? Yes, both of you being alive is a plus!

You are getting very sleepy… Well, wake up! It’s time to talk Hypnosis on H51. From county fairs to courtrooms, the practice of Hypnosis has led men to laughs and to the electric chair.

" Ever since it all began, I’ve just been sitting here going over and over it in my mind, trying to piece things back together. I’d feel pretty good if I could just figure out where I’ve been.

We know the saying is "there’s always room for Jell-O", but maybe not when it falls from the sky and is full of human white blood cells. Or at least that is what the population of Oakville, Washington would have us believe after they experience this very thing in 1994.
