It Gets Weird

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we head up north to hang out in Michigan and learn all about the myriad ghosts that haunt the car-free island known as Mackinac.

Is there a single room at the resort that functions as a convergence of the supernatural, thus allowing guests to experience a gho...

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we're concluding our overview of the life, research, and UFO experiences of Dr. Karla Turner...for now.

Hey there, Weirdos! This week Jules and Nile sit down to discuss a pressing issue of the day, the Pig-Man. Whether its in Cannock Chase or in Northfield, Pig-Men are standing in forests and scaring many a person and we are going to get to the bottom of it.

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we took a dive into the "Lacerta transcripts," a text that supposedly documents a meeting between a human and one of the inner-earth Reptilian aliens known as the Lacerta. What did Ole K. learn about Reptilian society and biology? Is an entire lizard world living alongside humanity in the Earth's core? All this and much more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we decided to try our best to talk about cryptozoological frogs, but we admit we were easily distracted in this one.

   Jules and Nile watch a documentary about the supposed events that the Wicker Man is inspired by. However the documentary is maybe not as inspiring as we'd hoped. Check out all our thoughts on mid 20th century british occultism and the exploration of the last occult sacrifice in british history.......kinda......maybe?

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we ask a question that somehow didn't occur to us for about a decade: who took the first UFO photo? Well, it's possible it was a man named William Rhodes, depending on who you ask. Did this guy really take the first photograph of a flying saucer all the way back in 1947, hot off the heels of Kenneth Arnold's original sighting? Did Air Force Intelligence try...

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we're chock full of ghosts, spooks, ghosts, ghouls, specters, and so on.

What is the history behind the Trans-Allegheny Asylum and how did it earn its reputation for being extr...

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we investigate a classic conspiracy that was propagated online in the mid-2010s: the disappearance of Kenny Veach and the mysterious "M Cave." Who was Kenny Veach and how did he disappear that fateful day in 2014? Where is the so-called "M Cave" and is it connected to UFOs? Or perhaps a grander military conspiracy? We discuss all this and much more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week Nile takes us to the freezing waters of the Antarctic where a crew of Japanese sailors witnessed none other than...a Godzilla. Well, a godzilla-esque cryptid, at least. And its name IS officially Antarctic Godzilla, so there's that. What fuzzy, dorsal fin-having beast lurks in these cold ocean waters and can it propel itself fifty feet into the air by rocke...

How do you communicate with them? What does a Fairy accent sound like? All...

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we explore extraterrestrial life from a perspective that's...a little bit different. Yeah, that's right, we're finally uncovering the truth about our furry feline friends. Is it true cats are aliens? Or is it possible that cats are placed here to be cute and fuzzy and captivate humans, secretly working as spies for the alien overlords. Can we create a bette...

This UFO manages to get a three-for-one deal, abducting a trio of women late one night after a birthday hangout. Did this UFO seize control of their car? Why did merely witnessing the UFO cause headaches, tingling, and pain? And was the alien abduction presaged by a myste...

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we went on another globe-trotting adventure, but this time in search of the legendary creature we've all come to love: Mothman. How do sightings of winged humanoids outside the US get filtered back into the American culture as Mothman? Are Mothman's travels a sign of something "sus" as the kids like to say? And why do we all want to romance the Mothman? All...
