This time around, SteveX & I dive head first into the Navajo lore of the Skinwalker.  They are truly terrifying Witchy ass creatures that ought not be trifled with.  For some reason, White People have an endless interest in them & keep trying to encounter them.  Which is just plain crazy, amiright?!  Enter...SKINWALKER RANCH.  We spend a good amount of time discussing that cursed piece of land too.  But hey, we t...

Dave is back to discuss one of his favorite conspiracy theorists, David Icke (that's IKE not ICKY, thank you)! I personally did not know much about him other than he is way into Reptilians, so this was an enlightening conversation for me.  We gloss over most of his bonkers theories about Hybrid Alien Bloodlines, Reptilian agendas, who is really in control of this mad world, why Princess Di was killed and more!

Raven Riot returns to talk about SHC! I really can't wrap my brain around these cases & I think you'll find them interesting cause there really are no words to explain what happened to these people. The explanations don't add up & we are left with more questions than answers.  What the hell causes these people to burn up into a pile of ashes? I honestly still have no clue.

This time around, Renni Pollock, host of COMPANY MOVE joins me to discuss her Hometown nut house, The Peoria State Hospital in Illinois.  Its history is actually one of inspiration & good, ethical treatment during a time when State Hospitals were notorious for basically torturing their patients.  And of course, it's haunted too.  We also discuss the Dammasch State Hospital in Oregon, which has a much more sor...

STEVE X is back to discuss the mysteries behind the DIA, or the Denver International Airport, or DEN, or Illuminati World HQ...whatever you want to call it.  It has underground tunnels, "Apocalyptic" Murals, Masonic time capsules, it was built on a Native American Burial Ground (possibly), its runways form a Swatstika, it has a Demonic Mustang statue that killed the Artist who made it, it has Gargoyles...and...

This week JPX & STUNTMAN MIKE take time from running their massive (some would say illegal) empire to talk to me about the LOCH NESS MONSTER.  We know this is well worn & boring territory, but we decided collectively that it was time to finally tell the world the whole truth about Nessie & just end all of the speculation & centuries old arguments.  The truth has arrived. At least our truth, anyway.  En...

Sarah Crosley is back! This time we discuss some of the most intriguing Cryptids from her home state of Indiana.  We focus mainly on the story of Oscar AKA The Beast Of Busco who, in the late 1940's caused a farmer so much grief that he went bankrupt trying to capture him & eventually sold his farm as a result of his fruitless efforts.  We also dig a bit into the aptly named Crosley Monster, who is also known...

Dave is back but this time he joined me IN PERSON, LIVE in the studio!  Enjoy our spirited & spirit soaked conversation (squeaky chair be damned) about the music we're listening to (the 1st 30 minutes or so is all music talk...) and the wild story of Jeffrey Alan Lash.  Was he working for the government? Was he an Alien Hybrid here to save the planet? Was he a drug dealer? An arms dealer?  Or was he just a ve...

This week The Old Man is back to discuss Clifford Stone.  Stone was well known in the Ufology circuit before his death in 2021 & he had many experiences with cleaning up UFO crash sites for the Army.  He wrote an article for UFO Magazine & Phenomena Report in October of 1998 called "Encounter In Vietnam".  I have a personal copy of this issue & the story was too good to not tell to The Old Man.  ...

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
