It Gets Weird

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we learn of a region in Scotland where UFOs seem to love to congregate. This place is known as the Falkirk Triangle, a location that exploded with odd UFO sightings throughout the 1990s. We also talk about a 1979 UFO case that sets the stage for the weird sightings that would follow. Was Robert Taylor attacked by a UFO's spiky balls? Why do UFOs haunt this region of Scotland? We answer all these questions and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we discussed two stories of humans who have shifted into alternate realities. What would you do if you woke up and suddenly small, unexpected things were totally different from how you remember them? How does one adapt to life in a new, slightly different timeline? Why do they call it oven when you oven the cold food of out hot eat the food? All this and so much more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we investigate the strange tale of a Russian woman who finds a small, baby creature just outside her village and takes it home as her newfound son. Was the Kyshtym being a stranded extraterrestrial creature or was it merely the figment of a geriatric's overactive imagination? Did the Russian secret service assassinate an elderly woman to keep the creature secret? Did a drunk man accidentally crush the Kyshtym being to death? All this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week, Nile brings two winged cryptids to the table:  Frank Shaw's Gargoyle and the Owlman of Cornwall! Did a NASA archivist witness a strange beast one fateful evening? Has a magician in Cornwall, England managed to catalogue the bizarre sightings of an Owlman whose motives remain unclear to this day? Listen as the Weird Boys melt and succumb to delirium in the broken air conditioning apartment heat!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week, we wrap up our more in-depth coverage of the legendary Skinwalker Ranch! What was Robert Bigelow actually doing on the land where all these paranormal events happened? How does Bigelow's organization tie into Pentagon money? Is Skinwalker Ranch just a scam or do the various owners over the years genuinely believe the phenomena is real? Is horniness an emotion? All this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This Garrett joined us to return to an infamous topic: Skinwalker Ranch. Instead of yelling at one another at ranch, this time we shifted focus and sternly discussed aoli. We also get more in-depth on the goings on of Skinwalker Ranch, from weird mothership UFOs and indestructible wolves to inter-dimensional entities and ghostly apparitions! Are aliens horny for cows, or is it the other way around? What really happened to the Sherman family? All this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week, Jules is back to talk with the Weird Boys about the extraterrestrial race known as the Alpha Draconians!

Plus, we talk vibrational energies, mating claws, and Robert E. Howard. All this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! In this one, the weird boys discuss the haunting of Borley Rectory, often referred to as the "most haunted place" in England. Is the ghostly nun that wanders the lands of Borley Rectory England's "most famous ghost," or is it merely an attention-grabbing hoax? Is a famous haunting also a great resource to tap into to cover up your sordid affair? We discuss all this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! In this one, girlfriend of the show Jules joins Kyle and Nile to discuss the various wolfmen of Kentucky!

Is the Beast of the Land Between the Lakes all hogged up? All this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! In this one, Kyle tells Nile about an infamous UFO abduction case from the 1970s, typically referred to as the Allagash Abductions. Were four art students plucked from the waters of the Allagash that fateful night, or is it all an attempt at a money-making hoax? What kind of UFO-themed drink do you think would be absolutely bangin'? All this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! In this one, we talk about a man named Albert Ostman and his experience being kidnapped by a family of Sasquatches!

Also, what exactly does Bigfoot have going on "down there"? We answer all these questions and so much more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! In this one, we complete the broad overview of the history of parapsychology and psychical research. We talk about the Society for Psychical Research's involvement with Helena Blavatsky and the Theosophical Society, plus J.B. Rhine and the "golden age" of parapsychology. And yes, there are telekinetic horses! You can stop asking for the telekinetic horses - we've got 'em in this episode!

Hey there friends and weirdos! In this one, Kyle tells Nile all about the late 19th century, early 20th century methods of the freshly-formed Society for Psyhcical Research! What kind of so-called "scientific methods" did this ragtag group of philosophers, Spiritualists, and poets employ? Did this scientific method of researching the paranormal work? According to some of their reports...yes. All this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! In this one, Kyle tells Nile all about the origins and history of psychical research and the various societies for parapsychology! How did we get from "animal magnetism" and mesmerism to the "rigorous" academic pursuit of physical explanations for paranormal phenomena? Very carefully! And sometimes without the proper academic rigor. Part one of a two part episode!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week, Nile connected two fascinating stories about alien tech. Did evil Nazi occultists use secret alien tech to create a horrifying "death engine" that also happens to be able to travel through time? Did this vessel travel through time to the 1960s and scare the daylights out of the residents of Kecksburg, Pennsylvania? What exactly is this bell-shaped UFO? We discuss all this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week, we explore a cryptid...or is it an occult doll? Whether the Jenglot is an undiscovered species or a magical fetish, this thing drinks blood and is absolutely serving looks. Is the Jenglot a hermit who failed to achieve immortality through a dark ritual, or is it a man-made construct that brings you wealth and prosperity? Is it a type of vampire? Will the boys be coerced into watching the Morbius movie? All this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week, Nile gets deep into the story of "Bruce" from the Super Soldier discussion website, "Super Soldier Talk."

We also discuss James Rink's personal quantum DMT computers. All this and more!

Hey there friends and weirdos! To kick off the 300s era of It Gets Weird, we watched a "documentary" called Häxan, also referred to as Häxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages! A 1922 documentary-cum-film essay directed by Benjamin Christensen, Häxan blends historical fact with reenactments of historical fiction using witchcraft and the occult. It seems to have something interesting to say about witches... Do the Weird Boys enjoy this Criterion classic? Listen and find out!

Hey there friends and weirdos! It's time for episode 300. To celebrate hitting "triple digits," we decided to play a game...a game we've come to call Campfire Stories. This ain't your momma's Campfire Stories, however! In this one, we use the RPG system called Lasers and Feelings to add a little structure to our game, because in this Bonfire Edition, we're joined by Jules, Collin, and Garrett. Will the player's paranormal investigation team solve the mysterious murder mansion, or will the supernatural entities in the manor prevail?

Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we're talking about a fabled alien artifact known as the Dropa Stones.
