The Mystery Hole Podcast

This week, the gang talks about dog meritocracy, brain aneurysms, and the mysterious disappearance of the Sodder children. Also, they swing by the Cryptid Corner to shout out some lesser-known weirdos. Enjoy!

This week, the Hole Crew does spiritual battle with haunted objects, Ed & Lorraine Warren, and the demons that stalk the hallways of Nathan's house. 

In what is surely to be the first in a series of episodes on grifting, the Hole Dwellers look at famous forgeries throughout history. Also featured: that one time Nathan was given the power to rule England for $5 in a gas station parking lot.

This week the Hole Meisters take a look at that most secretive of secret societies - the Roman Catholic Church. Terrible Popes, treasures of the Vatican vaults, and a philosopher's quandary about Donna's Kia Soul are all discussed ad nauseum. 

The crew don their SCUBA gear to check out mermaids, getting distracted along the way by cuck chairs, cake-serving whales, and exploitation at the rubber chicken factory. Normal ep. 

In celebration of spiritual twins Lane and Nathan's shared birthday, the Hole Diggers turn their comically oversized microscope towards fascinating twins of history to answer the burning question, "is there enough here for an episode?"

On this episode, the crew peers into the hole to investigate the seedy world of human/animal hybridization. Also there's a dash of zoophilia thrown in, because why not? What was learned, you ask? These "scientists" must be stopped! This one gets grody so hang on to your hats. 

This week, the Hole Investigators bring their keen insight to stories of pirate signal intrusion and hacking. Viv ponders the Mardi Gras Serial Killer, Nat reflects on a life as a hacker wasted, and Lane grapples with understanding a southern bumper sticker. 

On this episode, the Hole Masters approach the final frontier - death. They ponder Near Death Experiences and unhinged stipulations from final wills. Also sumo wrestling. 

This episode, the Spelunkers dig in to the horrifying world of medical mysteries. Lane, Nat, and Viv talk Typhoid Mary, Kyle Rittenhouse (a Typhoid Mary of ideas), and ponder the mysteries of the human body. 

Dogs - what are they? What are they thinking about? Why are they that way? In this episode, we won't answer any of that. But we will tell you about the Ghost Dogs of the Amazon and their unfortunate anatomy, as well as take you on a prolonged detour into the List of Individual Dogs from Wikipedia. Woof Woof! 

Happy New Year! Come chow down with your favorite hole examiners! 

This week the hole explorers return from their trip beyond our southern border, only to head across our northern one. That's right - we're talkin' Canada today folks. Come along as we look at some of their unhinged folklore. 

This week, the Spelunkers grab their passports and head to Mexico in search of the folklore and culture of our neighbors to the south; focusing on the Chupacabra, chaneques, and (spookiest of all) chihuahuas. Viv gets spooked by noises in her house, Nat questions whether the Big Five Cryptids list should be revised, and Lane somehow manages to passably pronounce "Xoloitzcuintli".

On this episode, the hole prodders examine mad kings throughout history. Lane and Nat try to understand their father's butchery of the English language and Viv ponders being a mad queen. Also: beavers. Real beavers not the other ones. Stop being crass. 

This week, the Hole Crew makes a classic bad move by stepping within a ring of mushrooms surrounding the mystery hole, after which they're immediately transported into the realm of capricious Fae perverts. So, come along and learn everything you never wanted to know about faeries! Viv dissects the ethos of horse girls, Nathan dodges public indecency while trick-or-treating, and Lane speculates abo...

The Spelunkers arrived for another dive into the hole, only to find the various beasties and weirdos within having a spooky movie night. In the spirit of a Universal monster double feature, the gang is going to look at the origins of the werewolf and the curse of King Tut's tomb. Viv considers a new lifestyle on the edge, Lane goes too hard with options for spiking Halloween candy, and Nathan brin...

This week, the Hole Crew examines the origins and superstitions surrounding Friday the 13th and examine some of the most unfortunate people in history. Lane lays out some problematic views on goblins, Nathan nearly practices a superstition straight off a bridge while driving, and Viv again ponders what portentous meaning is assigned to the various body parts of small creatures left on her porch by...

Spooky Season has blown in and the ranks of Black Phillip swell. This week, the Hole Investigators celebrate witchery as they contemplate whether they would take the Left Hand Path, thumb their noses at prophecy, and revel in schadenfreude learning how the Bell Witch trolled a slaveowner literally to death. Grab yourself a PSL and get weird with us!

This week, the crack team at The Mystery Hole Podcast finally looks into solving aliens. Their brains churn like a failing engine in an attempt to understand the philosophy about whether extra-terrestrials exist, and fall hard in love with the Flatwoods Monster. 

On this week's episode, Lane, Nat, and Viv sneak into Bohemian Grove hoping to find evidence of real-life dark magic. But instead, they find only besotted, mundane men with a public urination kink frolicking in the woods. 

This week, the crew hits some highlights from the long history of the queen of all cryptids - the Loch Ness Monster.  We shake our fists at hoaxers, peek at the horny folkloric origins of Nessie, and somehow end up pondering quantum theory. 

In this episode, the Spelunkers toss around their single shared brain cell to discuss the complexities of the human mind. They ponder the curious case of Phineas Gage and the effect brain maladies have had on our understanding of neurology, as well as display their signature profound ignorance by doubting the awe-inspiring abilities of savants. 

This week, the Hole Explorers drop all pretense of not being a food podcast and just go for it. Over the course of this discussion about famous gourmands of history, we talk about eatin' everything from grass to guts to guys. Bon Appetit!

This week, the Hole Crew explores a potpourri of topics including clowns and krampuses (krampi?), the latter of which is almost certainly the Rosetta Stone for Germany's deep love affair with BDSM. Please enjoy this completely normal and professionally done episode.
