Hysteria 51
Hysteria 51 is your offbeat weekly podcast destination for all things weird and wonderful! We navigate the cosmic highways of UFOs, the alien-infested landscapes, and the enigmatic frontiers of the paranormal. With your hosts, Brent Hand and David Flora, alongside our cantankerous tin man, Conspiracy Bot (with a not-so-subtle desire to rule the world, doubling as our chief inquisitor into the unknown), we delve into unique mysteries, the inexplicable, and the downright unusual. Each week, we explore a fresh topic, making one thing crystal clear... the truth is out there, but you won’t find it...

CAFEteria 51: Vienna Sausages | Bonus 01.04.2020 49:21
In our inaugural episode of "CAFEteria 51" (which is really just a ramble-cast where we eat weird food and complain a lot), we examine the food that put the "hot dog flavored water" in Limp Bizkit's...well you get the idea. We're eating Vienna Sausages! What are they made of (you don't want to know) Are they healthy (you don't want to know)? Does adding Brie and a toast-point somehow improve the e...

The Kentucky Meat Shower: The Day It Rained Meat | 178 02.03.2020 55:02
Weird things happen in Kentucky…chili buns…distilleries in dry counties…Johnny Depp. But perhaps the strangest was the day it rained meat on a rural farmstead. The event, now known as the Kentucky Meat Shower, is not only 100% real, it’s also yet to be fully explained. What would cause the heavens to open and drop a meaty monsoon on an unsuspecting farmer’s wife? We grab our umbrellas (and grills)...
Operation Mincemeat: The Hero Who Never Was | 177 24.02.2020 52:44
Did you know that James Bond saved the Allies during WW2 and turned the tide of the war? Well, that’s the clickbait, misleading version – but closer to accurate than you think. Operation Mincemeat was a secret spy plan executed by the MI5, Britain’s counter-intelligence and security agency, during WW2. The audacious plan involved planting fake war plans, tracking a single eyelash, and the success...
The Mysterious Disappearance of the Yuba County 5 | 176 17.02.2020 58:22
In late February of 1978, five men were heading home from attending a college basketball game when they stopped for some snacks. This would be the last time the men were seen or heard from again (maybe). Thus begins the strange story of the Yuba County Five. What caused these men to drive the opposite direction of their homes in the dead of night? Why would they navigate up a snowy mountain road o...
Water Fluoridation: I Drank What? | 175 10.02.2020 41:41
Three quarters of the United States’ public water supplies and supplies of at least 24 other countries are artificially fluoridated. Meaning, fluoride is added to the drinking water to pass it along to the population. Ostensibly this is being done to strengthen our teeth (you paid attention in health class, right?) BUT, there are some that believe there is a much more sinister plan behind the synt...
Lake City Quiet Pills: Reddit, Internet Mysteries, and Assassins…Oh My! | 174 03.02.2020 53:09
The internet is full of mysteries. Most of them are driven by either a lack of information or a gigantic leap in logic. But then there’s some, some that can’t be explained away by ignorance. Some that can’t be ignored by logic. Case in point, the mystery of the Lake City Quiet Pills. What begins, at cursory glance, with the death of an aging veteran with a penchant for inappropriate photos of youn...
The Assassination of Rasputin: 99 Problems But a Tsar Ain’t One | 173 27.01.2020 48:59
There lived a certain man in Russia long ago. He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow. Most people look at him with terror and with fear. But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear. He could preach the Bible like a preacher, full of ecstasy and fire. But he also was the kind of teacher women would desire. OK – that doesn’t have a ton to do with the actual Rasputin, but man it’s a fun...
Rasputin: Magical Dark Monk or Malodorous Drunk Mountebank? | 172 20.01.2020 49:13
Grigori Rasputin was one of the vilest, yet powerful villains in history. He was a giant both metaphorically and literally. He controlled magical powers of the dark arts, likely supplied by the devil. He was so powerful that after being poisoned, shot, stabbed, shot again, beaten, and thrown into a river – he was not yet dead. Or…. Grigori Rasputin was a short, drunk womanizer that constantly stun...
Thylacine: Hunted to Extinction or Hide & Seek Champ Since 1936? | 171 13.01.2020 46:32
So often on shows like this we talk about a cryptid that might not even have ever BEEN. Their mere existence; conjecture – their birth; legend. BUT, this case is a bit different. The Thylacine or Tasmanian Tiger was a real, honest-to-goodness, Linnaean classified animal! No conjecture here. There are stuffed versions of these bad boys in museums across the world! But, what happened to them? Did th...
Ectoplasm: Real Ghost Goo or Make-Believe Muck? | 170 06.01.2020 50:18
“He slimed me”. This quote from the venerable parapsychologist Dr Peter Venkman was likely your introduction to the phenomenon known as ectoplasm. But Slimer and the Ghostbusters weren’t the first folks to encounter the goo. Ectoplasm has been reported and photographed for over a century. Is this paranormal plasma truly a physical manifestation of the spirit world or simply another hoax perpetuate...

Waco: The Branch Davidian Cult and the Rise of David Koresh | 164 25.11.2019 1:04:33
How did a septuagenarian buggering wannabe rock-star suffering from dyslexia go from handyman to cult leader, culminating in the death of 80 people? We try to answer that very question this week (and not because Cbot is looking for tips). Plus, Kevin Crispin returns to the lower 4th, J.T.R.
