  • Nash Hoover: Chasing Legends
    Sep 23 2024

    This week, I'm joined by Nash Hoover from Chasing Legends! Nash and his team create and put out documentaries focusing cryptozoology. Nash is also a Minnesota native, so we get into some of the strange and mysterious beasts that waltz around his neck of the woods. It's always so fun to chat with a boots on the ground researcher, who's out there getting dirty and reporting back to us inside kids. Enjoy, my friends!
    Love, Steve

  • Chaki Sklar Presents: Chaki the Funk Wizard
    Sep 19 2024

    Holy moly, friends, do I have a treat for you! The one, the only, Chaki the Funk Wizard is my guest this week! Chaki is a musician, performer, comedian and one of the sweetest human beings I have ever met in my silly little life. We get into all sorts of funky goodness: Weird California, Manson/Spahn Ranch, Cemetery touring, occulted Los Angeles and a ton of other bass thumping weirdness. It's simply impossible for me to not be in a great mood when talking, hanging, or enjoying the music of Chaki. Please enjoy!

  • Tobias Wayland: Wisconsin Weird and Unsolved Mysteries
    Sep 12 2024

    Yo buds! This week I have on my pal Tobias Wayland! I was lucky enough to snag up an interview with Tobias while he's fresh off the release of The Lake Michigan Mothman episode of Unsolved Mysteries, for which he is heavily featured. We discuss his experience working on the show, and then we do a deepish dive on one of my favorite topics, weird Wisconsin. We talk about Wisco's (am I allowed to call it that?) storied UFO history, bigfoot, dogman, hauntings and a ton of other weirdness permeating his wonderful home state. I really had a blast chatting with Tobias, and I hope you all enjoy it too!
    Love, Steve

  • Beckie-Ann Galentine
    Sep 3 2024

    This week Beckie-Ann Galentine stops in for a visit to talk all things strange and unusual! Beckie is a massively successful internet influencer, and a wildly brilliant mind in the paranormal field. From the ethics of dying, to respectfully investigating the paranormal, Beckie does the good work out there, folks. We cover all sorts of subjects, from her early beginnings, to her rise to stardom, and how she navigates the world of being an online paranormal sensation. I learned a lot on this episode, and felt very inspired after recording with her. Beckie is a real inspiration on how to do it right! Bravo I say. I hope you all enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed recording it. Peace, my friends.

  • Michael Huntington: High Strangeness in the Show Me State!
    Aug 29 2024

    Howdy friends! This week I'm thrilled to have on a fellow Midwest researcher, Michael Huntington! Michael is a long-time researcher and UFO culture curator from the great state of Missouri. Michael is my kind of researcher too: not bogged down by mainstream UFOlogy, and all the uninteresting drama that comes with it. Instead, Michael advocates for UFO reform, not for attention, but because he cares deeply about the study. Bravo I say! Michael is also well versed and cares deeply for all sorts of weirdness: bigfoot, haunted locations, folklore and other topics that fall into the strange and unusual. I love Michael's work, and really feel inspired by how much he truly cares about these topics. I hope this episode leaves you feeling inspired too. Enjoy, my friends.
    Love, Steve

  • Richard Metzger: Magick Show
    Aug 16 2024

    I am thrilled to share this new episode with all all-around cool dude, Richard Metzger! Richard has been a fixture in the counter-culture and occult scene since the early 1990's, and has made lasting contributions with his Disinformation show, The Infinity Factory, Disinfo Con, and now his new offering, Magick Show. I'm a big fan of Richard's work, so please forgive my fanning out, haha. We get into all sorts of topics: his new show, how the counter-culture has changed and evolved, the occult, his older shows, and oh so much more. Richard is currently (as you read this!) doing a Kickstarter for Magick Show, and I highly recommend contributing to this extremely worthy artistic endeavor. I hope you all enjoy this as much as I did. Peace, friends.
    Love, Steve

  • Galen Howard: California Weird
    Aug 13 2024

    Hi there, friends! This week I'm honored and thrilled to have on fellow character actor, Galen Howard! Galen has been a working actor for many years now, but that's not all he is, folks. Galen is a deep appreciator of the history of California counter-culture and all sorts of other weirdness. We discuss California cults, culty acting classes, the vampire murders, haunted theaters and oh so much more. This was a real blast of a conversation for me, and I hope you all enjoy it too!
