It Gets Weird

We've got one more cryptid for you while we're still in the double digits. This week we discuss the Fouke Monster and various sightings of the cryptid over the decades. This Bigfoot-like creature has been showing its face for so long that it is a bit of a "Fouke legend," you might say? We talk about cryptid special defense stats, early Bigfoot sightings, and how to improve movies in general by tossing in a pinch'a Bigfoot. All this and more on the penultimate It Gets Weird cryptozoology expose!

What lies at the center of the Earth? Is it a massive ball of molten rock? Is the gate to Hell down there? Is it hollow? This week we discuss Hollow Earth Theory and its various explanations. We also talk about early science that led to the hollow theory, as well as some of the more...questionable sources behind the theory. We also talk about lost civilizations that could be dwelling inside Earth, hollow Earth theorists turned fugitives, and brand new Dyson™ Brand Globular Dyson Sphere™.

Why does Earth get all the dinosaurs? Did we really think that other planets didn't have something to offer in the big-ol'-lizard-bones department? This week we talk with our friend Garrett about "xenoarchaeology," which is pretty much exactly what it sounds like: dinosaur bones on other planets, or specifically in this case, Mars. We also talk a little too much about iSpy books, whippets, and the idea of a solar system-wide Bigfoot tournament. All this and much, much more on this week's It Gets Weird!

Back to basics this week with two hosts, two mics, and a trip into the mind of a screenplay writer who has synthesized the Bible, history, and science into one...cohesive (???) story. Ever wonder about the first wedding in the garden of Eden, or how the five cherubim made up God's throne? We've got all that and much more (including everyone's favorite conspiracy topic, predicting 9/11). Take a listen and see if you want to download the screenplays as badly as we did after discussing the topic.

How do you open a portal to Hell? Would there be a winged Satan baby flying around? Would a goat man hump wildly in front of world leaders? If you answered 'yes' to these questions, then you're ready for the Gotthard Tunnel Opening Ceremony. This week we had a party 'cast in which Garrett, Jules, and Scott joined our hosts to witness the infamous ceremony for Switzerland's Gotthard Base Tunnel, a strange theatrical performance full of odd imagery, goat drama, and a bunch of great asses.

Hello Weirdos and welcome to the much-anticipated It Gets Weird / Pop Culture Role Call crossover! This week Collin, Stas, and Mike from the Pop Culture Role Call crew take over It Gets Weird to discuss the Phantom of Croglin Grange! The vampire-slaying crew not only discusses a classic vampire story, but also dip their toes in topics such as pirate jokes, spooky scary graveyards, and how to keep up with the sun in a running contest. Will Pop Culture Role Call be able to confront the spooky scary story of the Phantom of Croglin Grange? Will they usurp Nile and Kyle as hosts of It Gets Weird?

Did you have a doll as a kid? One that you took everywhere with you but now you've forgotten about. Is it sitting somewhere in storage just waiting to get enough negative energy to haunt you? This week we talk Harold the Haunted Doll who is possessed by at least 4 spirits and may have committed murder (both human and dog). Jules sits down with us as we discuss the storied history of Harold along with Ghost Adventures, Waluigi, and what it would take for us to buy a haunted doll. Also, next week we have a swap episode with our good friends at Pop Culture Role Call where they'll be doing our show and we're doing theirs! Get excited!   Warnings: description of dog death, short mention of rape

Everyone needs a vacation, right? Even the wealthy elite of society need to take some time to get in touch with nature, themselves, and satanic rituals. This week we are joined by our friend Matt (from Flannel Cakes Podcast) as we discuss Bohemian Grove. The elite, forest getaway in California where the rich and powerful get drunk and let loose.... and maybe sacrifice children. Also we discuss unicorn cereal, Alex Jones (who gets a hand on this ball), and our own getaways. 

Who doesn't love a good alien abduction story? But have you heard the original one? This week we discuss the Betty and Barney Hill Incident a.k.a the first known alien abduction case. You'll find that it has a lot in common with many abductions that have happened since then except this did it first. We also talk about our own aliens ideals and much more. Check it out!

Have you ever felt aimless? Like you didn't know what your purpose was? Maybe you should try digging into your Akashic Records so you can glean some sort of life goal from this ethereal knowledge center. This week we are talking about those aforementioned records with our good friend Garrett. We also discussing wringing juice out of animals, God, and some questions we need answers to. All this and more on this week's It Gets Weird

Look up in the sky! Are you scared of those lines up there? Do you think they are trying to poison you? If so, you might believe in Chemtrails. This week we are joined by friend of the show, Scott, as dive into the boogeyman that is Chemtrails and geoengineering. We discuss what they are, if you should worry, and what musicians wrote songs about them.    iTunes Stitcher Facebook Twitter Google Play

Not satisfied with our first dive into occult crimes, this week on It Gets Weird Kyle tells three chilling tales about supernatural murder. Or "paranormal-adjacent" murder. Something like that. Also joining the boys is friend of the podcast Garrett to offer his two cents for evading Big Tim, the world's scariest and most prolific Murder Ghost! We talk about the Hinterkaifeck Murders, Elisa Lam, and the Black Magic Murder of Charles Walton! All this and more in episode 88.     iTunes Stitcher Facebook Twitter Google Play

Remember when you were riding across country with your family and you would stop at the weird, independent gas station that had deer heads and stuff hanging and you came across this little rabbit with deer antlers? This week we are talking about the Jackalope in all its forms and we are joined by friends of the show Halle and Jules. We dive into the urban legends, the weird habits, abilities, and mating rituals of the creature.    iTunes Stitcher Facebook Twitter Google Play

For this episode of It Gets Weird we tackled the show Occult Crimes (suggested by @catesstrophic on twitter) and all the gory, poorly reenacted death it had to offer. In the two episodes we watched we became acquainted with the Children of Thunder and the Order of the Solar Temple. The Children of Thunder were a trio of religious zealots who wanted to bring down the Church of Latter Day Saints but couldn't even handle a bank transaction while the Order of the Solar Temple followed a con man as he tried to make a legend out of himself and send people to a paradise planet if they would just get rid of their earthly bodies. 

Welcome back to It Gets Weird, everyone! Have you ever felt paranoid that everybody's watching you? Have you ever felt like somebody's watching you? You may be an unwitting victim of "gang stalking", essentially a creepy stalker version of a flash mob but way less fun. People who believe they are victims of gang stalking refer to themselves as "targeted individuals" and believe they are the subjects of a targeted, government-sponsored harassment program. We dive deep into a somewhat sobering topic, but we also talk about fanservice, Wes Anderson's BULLSHIT, and our new show "Talking Weird," hosted by Chris Hardwick! All this and more on this episode of It Gets Weird!     iTunes Stitcher Facebook Twitter Google Play

You know how we always say we are going to go back and cover more about certain topics but have yet to really do that? That all changes this week, baby! We take another look at "The Big Cheese" himself, Andrew Basiago and his various secret government exploits throughout the years. We covered the Mars Jump Room in a previous episode and this week we cover his experiences with time travel in Project Pegasus along with his presidential campaigning.    iTunes Stitcher Facebook Twitter Google Play

Robert Charroux: crazy Nazi conspiracy theorist or genius on the brink of rediscovering human history? The It Gets Weird crew answers this question and many more in our latest profile episode in which we discuss French Ancient Astronaut "theorist" Robert Charroux. Like many other conspiracies, there seems to be some weird Nazi nonsense lurking just around the corner...Or perhaps we simply don't understand Atlantis and the Nazca Lines like Ol' Robby Boy. This, and much more on this episode of It Gets Weird!     iTunes Stitcher Facebook Twitter Google Play

There's so much we don't know about what lies beneath the ice of Antarctica. What if there were some monstrous beings that we have no knowledge of, just waiting for unfortunate people to venture into their world? This week we talk about some wild monsters in the depths of Antarctica including Organism 46-B and the Ningen. Are either of these beings real? Can Garrett and Kyle figure out what Pokemon Nile is trying to reference? Can a Keurig be operated by tentacles? Find out all of this and much, much more on this week's It Gets Weird Podcast   iTunes Stitcher Facebook Twitter Google Play

You guys like movies right? How about documentaries? We normally do too, but this one...... was something.

Anyway, check out the episode and send us your favorite documentaries of the weird.    iTunes Stitcher Facebook Twitter Google Play

It's time to light that campfire again and gather around for some spooky stories. Today, we are joined by friend of the show Karl as we discuss the Chase Vault and the Baleroy Mansion.
