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.  Enjoy!

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 as Indiana&ap...

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 very gifted Con ...

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.  I naturally do...

Welcome to a new installment of Lost Rhetoric Triple E! This episode I tell the story of Charles Hickson & Calvin Parker, 2 men who claim to have been abducted by aliens on the Pascagoula River in Mississippi in the Fall of 1973.  Known as  "The 2nd Most Famous Abduction Story In History", their story has an air of truthiness to it that is hard to shake.  Listen up & check the links below.

Back in 1988, a friend of technical illustrator Mark McCandlish claimed to have witnessed a secret exhibit of 3 crafts displaying anti-gravity capabilities.  Based on his experience & other witness recollections, McCandlish drew up the now infamous drawing of the Alien Reproduction Vehicle (ARV), also known as the Fluxliner.  Jeff Bugbee & I discuss the origins of where these crafts may have come from & the methods &...

A mysterious, well dressed man ends up dead on an Australian beach in 1948 & to this very day no one knows who he is or exactly how he died.  There are pictures of his body, his fingerprints are on file, his belongings were found & analyzed, his DNA has even been tested but still...his identity remains a mystery.  Who was The Somerton Man?

Did the Roswell crash provide the US Military with access to a live alien known as EBE #1 who lived for a few years after but before he passed he put us in touch with his home planet of Serpo & that resulted in an eventual meet & greet/exchange program in the early 60's & also probably influenced the whole "Close Encounters Of the 3rd Kind" thing?!?!  Listen to find out!

This week Nick Parks from heavy heartthrobs, GAYTHEIST, joins me to discuss magic.  Some left hand path, some right hand path...but we mainly focus on how an individual can get so wrapped up in their own journey that they lose sight of reality.  Adolfo De Jesus Constanzo was a magical serial killer that had ties to & high stakes in Mexican drug cartels.  It's an unreal & violent story that ends the only way it could en...

In the early days of LSD experimentation, there were quite a few deaths in the scene & a lot of rumors surrounding those deaths.  LSD may have caused some of them but maybe, just maybe, the hype & fear surrounding the drug was used as a scapegoat. JPX from Post Rhetoric & The Degenerate Life Podcast joins me to talk about some baffling historical cases.  Grace Bigler also joins me to tell a ghost story in CALL ME CRAZY....

Edward Leedskalnin, we've determined, was probably not a good guy.  He had some sketchy personal ideals (which he wrote about) and by today's standards he was a love spurned pedophile obsessing psychotically over losing the chance to marry a child 10 years his junior.  He took all of his bitterness, moved from Latvia to the USA & eventually built a modern marvel of a shrine to his "sweet sixteen".  He plainl...
