Journey to the Fringe

Journey to the Fringe

Thanks for checking out our podcast! We look at fringe topics often neglected, or ill discussed, in a light hearted and open manner. These topics run the gambit from the mundane water pollution, recycling, and tax evasion to the fantastical moth persons, time travellers, and paranormal. For us there’s no cryptid too creepy, topic too trivial, or djinn to dreary. Also we like to do exposes on assholes of the UFO community. To keep things fresh (and also because we aren’t really sure how to start podcasts) we start every week off with a Fringey Mini recent news article and discussion (It’s the podcast equivalent of not knowing what to do with your hands). And as we say in our intro from the unexplained to the mundane, join us on our journey to the fringe.

So it looks like one of Uranus' moons, Miranda, may have an ocean and by extension life! There is a very good chance that this is simply because we do not have enough data but exciting none the less... Also I don't think we make any Uranus jokes (don't hold me to that though!).

Winged horrors and mysterious figures take center stage this week as we explore two legendary cryptids: the Van Meter Visitor—a bat-winged beast that terrorized an Iowa town in 1903—and the Solway Firth Spaceman, a mysterious figure caught in a family photo that sparked global UFO theories. Two strange stories, one weird ride. Spaze jazz is the background music this week, thank you Kevin Macloud for doing a solid and creating the m...

This week, we swing into a strange new study linking golf courses to Parkinson’s disease. Turns out, living within a mile of a course could more than double your risk—especially if your tap water shares a source with those pesticide-soaked greens.

We dive into the data, the chemicals, and why something as innocent as a putting green might not be so innocent after all. Is your local golf course messing with your brain?

This episode the after life is giving Michigan a run for it's money... we’re diving straight into the deep (and occasionally demonic) end of near-death experiences—because sometimes the tunnel doesn’t lead to a warm, loving light… it leads to shrieking shadows, bottomless voids, and the occasional hellish pit stop.

In this episode, we crack open the lesser-known vault of distressing NDEs. Forget the peaceful reunions and celestial s...

Welcome to your hump day pick me up, and good news, Taylor has it!

On this episode, we head to the windswept Isle of Lewis, where residents are being haunted by… a hum. Yes, a mysterious, low-frequency droning noise that no one can quite locate—or agree on. Is it a marine mystery? A malfunctioning machine? Or just the sound of our own inner chaos? We dive into the drama, meet the Facebook detectives, and ask the hard questions: Why...

In this thrilling second half we take a look at Edgar Mitchell's career with UFOs and aliens and all the twist and turns it takes. I would write more but I don't really want to spoil it.

Well a big name in the Epstein Conspiracy, Virginia Giuffre, just committed suicide... and it's a weird story. So it's a natural fit for us.... Umm there's some pretty big trigger warnings regarding suicides and sexual assaults, viewer discretion is advised.

From his rigorous training at NASA to the breathtaking lunar expedition, we follow Mitchell’s journey as he leaves Earth, lands on the moon, and returns home.

But something happened up there—something profound. As Mitchell gazed out at the stars on his way back, he experienced a shift in...

This week at Journey to the Fringe we're obsessed with wolves of all types- bipeds, Dire Wolves... probably others?

That's right, we're diving deep into yet another great lake anaomaly... at least loosley in the neighborhood, and that's the legend of the Dogman—not to be confused with Dave Pilkey’s graphic novel hero, though this cryptid might also rip up your mail. From Michigan’s misty Manistee River to Pennsylvania’s moonlit pas...

In this howlingly strange mini, we sink our teeth into the buzz around Colossal Biosciences' claim that they’ve resurrected the dire wolf—yes, the same fang-faced legends from Game of Thrones. But are these snow-white pups really ancient predators reborn, or just very expensive cosplay wolves? We sniff out the science behind gene editing, prehistoric DNA, and some eyebrow-raising semantics as scientists clash over whether Romulus, ...

Guess what!! There's lots more Serpo papers to go through.

Also some weird AI happenings are included in this episode which I don't think anyone was expecting.

This episode we’re diving headfirst into the wild world of backdrop people — a.k.a. NPCs, extras, energy shells, or the folks who might just be here to fill in the scene while the real players evolve. Think: simulation vibes, and a sprinkle of existential spice.

Are they soulless placeholders? Catalysts for your spiritual glow-up? Or just your neighbor Steve?

Alright folks, gather 'round for this hell-raising Fringey Mini. This week, we're diving headfirst into a story that’s less “Touched by an Angel” and more “Touched by Something That Needs an Exorcism, Stat.”

We’re talking about the not-so-holy crossover between Latter-day Saint doctrine and demonic possession—yep, demons are apparently freeloading in Utah basements now. From Ruby Franke’s cayenne-spiced parenting tips (hot take, lit...
