Hysteria 51

Is the universe trying to text us back… or did someone just butt-dial from deep space? This week on Hysteria 51 we dive into truly weird news: first, scientists are stumped by a bizarre cosmic image that defies easy explanation, sparking fresh debates about aliens, astrophysics, and whether the universe just hit “reply all.” Then we tackle the story of how poems can trick AI into helping build a nuclear weapon—because obvi...

Did ancient civilizations nuke themselves into oblivion… or did the History Channel just get bored again? This week we dive headfirst into the rabbit hole of Ancient Nuclear Wars – from the “radioactive” skeletons of Mohenjo-Daro, to alleged atom-bomb craters in the desert, to the Mahabharata passages that sound suspiciously like somebody watched a Cold War documentary and got way too excited. We’ll talk vimanas (ancient f...

In this episode of Hysteria 51, we’re cranking the weird meter to 11 with a double feature of near-cremation resurrection and mysterious UFO lights over New York’s Finger Lakes. First, we head to Thailand, where a woman declared dead was sent to the crematorium—only to wake up in her coffin moments before cremation. Was it a medical mistake, a glitch in the Matrix, or proof that you really can hit snooze on the afterlife?

Is homeopathy a gentle natural cure… or just really confident sugar pills? This week on Hysteria 51 Kevin Crispin of the Behind Beautiful Things podcast joins us as we dive into the strange world of “like cures like,” ultra-dilutions, and remedies so watered down they make LaCroix look concentrated. From onion pills for allergies to ghostly duck-liver flu treatments, we break down how homeopathy works, why people swear by ...

This week on Hysteria 51, we’re cracking open boxes—and secrets—that should have stayed sealed.

First up, a Canadian woman is suing the CIA after claiming she was experimented on at age 16 as part of a secret mind control project. Think MK-Ultra, but with a teenage twist. Spoiler alert: It does not end with a high school diploma and a nice internship.

Then we double down on disturbing deliveries as another woman receives a p...

Grab your torches, your questionable treasure maps, and maybe a chisel or two (for research purposes), because this week Hysteria 51 returns with regular episodes as we digs into Burrows Cave — Southern Illinois’ most controversial cavern of supposed mysteries.

First, we head to Japan where an aquarium has launched an “educational” exhibit that lets visitors smell animal butts. You read that right. Curious about how a sea lion smells from behind? Now you can find out—for science.

Then, we dive into groundbreaking research that suggests humans might on...

This week on Hysteria 51, we’re sudsing up the spooky and scrubbing down the strange!

Then it’s a hard turn into the paranormal deep end with newly “validated” rep...

This week on Hysteria 51, we crank the weird dial to 11 with phantom radio signals and frozen sky turds—because that’s where the news cycle is at, folks.

This week on Hysteria 51, we swirl a glass of weird with a splash of what-the-actual-hell.

First up: A New Zealand company is now selling non-alcoholic “wine” for cats and dogs—finally, your pet can join you in judging reality TV with a glass of Pinot Meow. It’s cute, it’s confusing, and it raises more questions than answers. Conspiracy Bot is demanding a robot-friendly rosé.

Then, we spiral into deep-space biology as a scie...

This week on Hysteria 51, we dive deep—literally and figuratively—into two bizarre stories that prove reality is way weirder than fiction.

First up: A man in scuba gear robs a restaurant at Disney Springs and swims away through a lagoon like a Bond villain on spring break. It’s equal parts daring heist, Florida headline, and splashy cosplay crime. Ocean’s Eleven? More like Nemo’s One.

Then, we explore a mysterious dream phen...

This week on Hysteria 51, we flex our mental muscles and our molars as we dive into a pair of stories that’ll have you questioning reality—and your dentist.
