Middle-Aged and Mediocre

We are back with Season 2 and we are starting things off with a gut-punch of a story!  The Children of God was formed in 1968 in Orange Beach, California under the guidance of David Brandt Berg and began as a band of hippies who would proselytize in the streets, and distribute literature. In 1969, after having a revelation "that California would be hit by a major earthquake", he left Huntingt...

A lot has been said and written about the Mothman over the years. Books, movies, video games, stickers, shirts, festivals; you name it and the Mothman has been there and done that. Having said that, the one thing the Mothman has never done is been interviewed. All of the historians, all of the writers, the experts, the obsessed... not one of them has been able to get the Mothman to sit down with t...

Hey hey, the boys are back! This week they talk about an NES game that sold for 2 million dollars, a couple who bought a house with what many would consider being too many bees in the walls, and an extremely poisonous & deadly snake on the loose in Texas. Once the current events are covered, the guys get back to basics with a true crime story.  This week's episode covers a former player f...

Cash and Joel discuss Carl Nassib of the Las Vegas Raiders announcing on his Instagram that he is gay, becoming the first openly gay active NFL player. The guys do a deep dive into the #Califlorida cult, including membership dues, roles within the cult, and other important details that potential members need to know. A new segment called, " Hey, TMZ! What the fuck is happening over there?!", makes...

A lot to cover this week! There's apparently a new ocean. Scientists have been masturbating mice to make sure humans can live on Mars. It's a very special anniversary. Cash puts Joel to the test to make sure he's a worthy human. Joel talks about balls and holes. And friend of the show, Michael Fisher, sends in a phenomena that he's been experience in hopes that the guys can help him figure out wha...

Technical difficulties lead to another fun episode from us. We did one of these back in November and that episode is still a favorite. This time around we talk about a McNugget selling for nearly 100 thousand dollars because it resembled a video game character. Cash grills Joel on his new American Picker lifestyle and challenges him to a Storage War. We find out what the funniest joke in the world...

When a student interrupts a lecture during class to ask, "Why did the German people let the holocaust happen?", Ron Jones does what any teacher in his position would do; he conducts an experiment that basically results in him forming a new political party hellbent on world domination.  Sorta.  This is a pretty wild story about a classroom experiment in 1967 that got way out of hand very...

Gainesville, Florida is a college town. Home to the Florida Gators. Home to swamplands. Home to a killer that terrorized students in the 90s and inspired a horror film. 

The sun is blacked out by a swarm of insect invaders that are looking to devour everything in sight. The Homestead Act, the end of the Civil War, and the completion of the first transcontinental railroad all sent families out west looking to start their lives anew but after suffering drought and other hardships, their misery is infested by almost 27 million tons worth of locusts that stretched out...

Cash & Joel are back after a 2-week hiatus. In this short episode, the guys talk about that time James Jameson, of the Jameson Irish Whiskey family, and heir to their fortune, bought a human being so he do some drawrings of them being eaten by a tribe of cannibals deep in the Congo. Just your typical rich, white asshole bullshit, ya know?  Joel has a couple of Feel Goods for us all, and t...

Along with the main story about a family betrayal and murder; Joel & Cash discuss the recent WWE releases and where they think everyone will end up, a Cannibal Monkey Who Has Been Jailed for Life for Murder, Jaleel White's "Purple Urkel", and more!

Most of us live our lives feeling like we have no idea what we’re doing, who we are, where we’re going, or what this whole deal is really all about. For Pauline Dakin, though, her life was spent questioning everything and everyone she had ever known. Pauline’s life was like something out of a Tom Clancy novel, but unlike the straightforward, black and white, good guy versus bad guy stories about c...

A girl goes missing from a Halloween party in Monroe County, Michigan. With around 700 potential witnesses and suspects, the police have their work cut out for them as this story twists and turns down a tragic path. Join us as we discuss the case of Chelsea Bruck, covering what happened, who did it, who didn’t do it, and the gut-wrenching circumstances surrounding the crime. Also discussed in this...

This week we discuss a murder case from our hometown of Parkersburg, WV, and since Joel was on the jury during the sentencing hearing, we dive into what it's like to be on a jury for a trial like this. There is not a lot of information about this case from almost 20 years ago but Joel recalls as much of it as he can.  We also talk about a drug smuggler with the most badass name of all time. E...

We discussed the victims of the Ripper Crew in Part 1 and now, in Part 2, we get into who the Crew is, how their monstrous ways came to an end, their trials, and we cap it off with an absolutely insane connection that one of the crew members had with one of America's most notorious serial killers (and what that connection implies). These men committed acts of depravity that even the darkest horror...

Havoc was wreaked upon Chicago in the 1980s as a group of sadomasochistic Satanists prowled the streets looking for their next victim. We want to warn you up front that this story contains accounts of rape, torture, mutilation, and absolutely horrific sexual assault. This will certainly be one of our heaviest and darkest episodes, and we understand if you want to skip out on listening to this epis...

A well-liked, quiet, shy 18-year old disappears on the night of January 2, 2000 in North Carolina. Every lead just raises more questions about what happened to him that night. Motives are unclear. Multiple suspects are looked into. Nothing makes sense. This week, we’re getting tangled up in quite the web while we try and solve the Disappearance of Zebb Quinn.

This week we are talking about a love story gone wrong. 20-year old Richard McCroskey, aka Syko Sam, meets 16-year old Emma Neiderbrock, aka Rag Doll, online and the two hit it off over their shared love of horrorcore music. After building their relationship online, the two decide to meet up in person at the Strictly for the Wicked festival in Michigan along with Emma's friend, Melanie. Right from...

It’s another twofer episode today as we have two stories full of murder to get into today. In one, a man kills because Albert Einstein wouldn’t listen to him and in the other, a former WVU football player goes on a seemingly random killing spree in Alaska that coincidentally ties his old life and new life together forever in an unserendipitous way.  The Two Dudes with Sadditudes discuss Morgan Wal...

You get a twofer of murder in today's episode! First up, we have the story of Herbert William Mullin, The Earthquake Killer, who wanted to prevent the deaths of many by seeing to the death of a few, and he actually, maybe, kind of was onto something with this theory? It's an interesting story about a killing spree that took a lot of twists and turns. We'll follow that story up with the story of An...

Barney and Betty Hill were an American couple who claimed they were abducted by extraterrestrials in a rural portion of the state of New Hampshire from September 19 to 20, 1961. It was the first widely publicized report of an alien abduction in the United States.  We also have a new "Feels Good" in honor of the NHL season starting. If you're listening on Apple Podcasts, give us that 5-star rating...
