Only If You Can Keep Up

Cemeteries are full of more than just headstones. They're filled with history, symbolism, traditions, and stories that most of us walk right past without ever noticing. This week, we're exploring the fascinating world of cemeteries, from unusual burial customs and cemetery symbolism to the surprising history hidden among the graves. Along the way, we uncover strange facts, forgotten trad...

Apparently there's an opposite of a trigger... and most of us have been walking right past it. This week we're diving into glimmers, those tiny moments that catch you off guard in the best way, and why your brain could use a few more of them. If you've ever been instantly cheered up by the smell of rain, that random song you didn't know you needed, or the sounds of morning bird...

But why are we like this?....

The nursery rhymes we grew up singing might be a lot darker than we ever realized. In this episode, we dig into the eerie stories, strange theories, and unsettling origins behind some of the world's most famous nursery rhymes. From Humpty Dumpty and Three Blind Mice to Rock-a-Bye Baby, Ring Around the Rosie, and plenty more, we explore how these innocent childhood verses became surrounded by...

This week we're taking a trip back to childhood... and realizing it was way creepier than we remembered. From strange TV shows that we probably had no business watching, to toys that seemed a little too alive, we're talking about all the things that gave us the creeps growing up. We dive into tv shows and movies that we were WAY to young to watch, but no one seemed to care! And they toys...

Not everything is fun, and we're not afraid to say it. This week, we're diving into all the things we just don't enjoy.

Grab a drink and come complain with us. Send us Fan M...

Porch Talk is back and this one spirals beautifully. Do you ever have the problem when every terrible thing seems to happen all at once?? WE DO! Then we get into the school system, how technology is making kids less independent instead of smarter, and why it feels like common sense is slowly leaving the world. Wrapping the episode up with a true crime story that is genuinely awful. It’s chaotic, o...

Fairy tales were never really made for kids… and this week we’re proving it. We’re digging into the eerie world of Grimm fairy tales, the darker versions hidden behind the stories we grew up hearing, and why so many of them feel more cursed than comforting. It’s strange, creepy, violent, and honestly kind of fascinating that they took crazy morbid tales and turned them into stories that we now lov...

This week we’re diving into all the things society changed without us even knowing. From the days of whispering on a cellphone in public like you were handling government secrets… to now hearing someone’s full FaceTime breakup in the cereal aisle. We’re talking about the weird shift in what used to be considered rude, normal, embarrassing, or completely unacceptable. From feral restaurant kids and...

Yep you read that right.. something that’s been misunderstood and twisted into something it’s not for a long time. In this episode, we dig into where it actually comes from, rooted in West African spiritual traditions and shaped by history, survival, and resilience. We talk about the real practices, rituals, ancestors, and what those symbols actually mean, while separating truth from all the myths...

Somewhere between dogs tracking in mud on a fresh cleaned floor and fighting a Ziploc bag that refuses to zip, life quietly declares war. In this episode, we spiral through the tiny, ridiculous annoyances that shouldn’t matter… but absolutely do. Cabinets that won’t stay shut, phones that sense the exact moment you try to nap, and all the little things that slowly chip away at your sanity one inco...

Time for another PORCH TALK.. for all you new peeps out there wondering, a porch talk is where we act like we are sitting on the porch having a nice good long chat! Because the best talks are always outside on the porch. We never have a script for these and most of them subject jump pretty quick, but I can almost promise you will laugh at least once! SO buckle up and enjoy! Send us Fan Mail If you...

Some laws make sense… and then there are the ones that feel like they were written after someone lost a very specific argument in 1872. Did you know it's illegal to put a donkey in a bathtub?? Seriously! In this episode, we spiral into the wonderfully weird world of laws that should not still exist, but they somehow do. From oddly specific bans to rules that raise more questions than answers,...

This week we wander through the wild ways humans say goodby, from fiery send-offs inspired by Viking funerals to seated wakes where the guest of honor is still… attending. We also talk about some of our traditions, where things can get a little strange, a little expensive, and wonder why we do funerals the way we do. We also have some facts you might not know about funerals, burials, and some pecu...

Remember your first love? First Kiss? First Tattoo? Now rewind to your first time feeling truly alone… yeah, that one hits different. In this episode, we spiral through our “firsts” that quietly shape who we became. The moment we realized we weren’t like everyone else, the first time we felt like we were actually getting older. This episode is full of some of our firsts. Some are fun, some are wei...

It’s another Porch Talk, and as usual… we spiral a little. We’re talking kids with devices basically attached to their faces, why does the world feel kinda off lately?, and of course, because we can’t help ourselves, the weather makes an appearance. There’s some randomness, some laughs, and a few “wait… why is it like that?” moments. Send us Fan Mail If you like this episode, make sure to follow a...

Imagine a world where the internet never existed. No endless scrolling, no notifications buzzing in your pocket, no rabbit holes that start with a recipe and end with a conspiracy about lizard people. In this episode, we explore what life might look like if humanity never built the digital web that now connects everything. Would our attention spans be longer? Would mental health be stronger withou...

What if we’re just background characters in a cosmic video game? What if the Earth is flat like a divine pancake? What if planes are out here seasoning the sky like it’s a giant invisible casserole?  This week we cannonball straight into the conspiracy pool. We chat about the simulation theory, Flat Earth, solar panels and the ever-mysterious plane seeding situation. Then we sprinkle in a few deli...

In this episode, we dive headfirst into the wonderfully weird world of the human body. The stuff it does. The secrets it keeps. The tiny, bizarre habits it has. No medical degrees. No boring lectures. Just us spiraling in real time over the fact that we are basically self-heating, noise-making, occasionally glitching meat computers trying our best. Prepare to laugh, question everything, and maybe...

In this month's Porch Talk, we let the conversation wander wherever it wants to go. No outline. No script. Just two brains free-ranging like they slipped the fence and decided to explore. It’s chaotic. It’s unfiltered. It’s exactly what happens when you put us on a metaphorical porch with microphones and zero supervision. If you like your conversations unpredictable, slightly unhinged, and fu...

In this episode, we wander through the curious museums inside our own brains and closets, talking about the things we have collected over the years and the oddly specific interests that refuse to leave us alone. From sentimental keepsakes and childhood treasures to the wonderfully weird items we somehow ended up with multiples of, we unpack why we keep what we keep and what those objects quietly s...

In this episode, we dive into the strangest jobs you probably never considered but are very glad someone is doing. From crime scene cleanup and the scientists who read insects like a timeline after death, to the less grim but equally unexpected worlds of porta-potty cleaning and professional cuddling, dog food testers and so many more. It’s part fascinating, part uncomfortable, and occasionally hi...

Some places on Earth aren’t just hard to live in…they’re off-limits. In this episode, we explore locations humans aren’t meant to settle, survive, or sometimes even visit. From an island so packed with venomous snakes it looks like the ground is moving, to a tribe that has made it very clear they want no contact, to abandoned islands shaped by disease, death, and dark history. We talk about why pe...
