Season 7 Episode 1: Supernatural Trials
Release Date: September 5, 2024
We’re back for a 7th season and we’re kicking it off with supernatural trials. There’s all kinds of defenses to use in a murder trial but have you ever heard of the ‘Bear Walker Defense’? It’s definitely a thing. Not into true crime? No problem! What do you think about real estate law? Did you ever buy a house only to find out later it was haunted? The case of Stambovsky v. Ackley resulted in America’s only known legally haunted house. Some weird, b’y!
Season 7 Episode 2: Pareidolia: Faces in Toast and Faces of Belmez
Release Date: September 19, 2024
Pareidolia is the phenomenon of seeing patterns in nonsense. We see clouds that look like all manner of things, everyday items that seem to have human expressions, and sometimes, Jesus shows up in toast! Other times, rando faces just appear on the kitchen floor. Why do we see them and why do they happen? Some weird, b’y!
Season 7 Episode 3: The Moon Landing Conspiracy
Release Date: October 3, 2024
The tin-foil hat crowd believe that the whole moon landing was fake news. Why? We’ll report on their beliefs and present what they say is proof. Also, we’ll look at the super weird idea that Stanley Kubrick tattled on himself as the one who filmed the fake footage by putting Easter eggs in the 1980 movie ‘The Shining’. It’s a stretch and it’s some weird, b’y.
Season 7 Episode 4: Secular Prophets: Nostradamus and The Simpsons
Release Date: October 17, 2024
Can anyone tell the future or do we just fill in the blanks in hindsight? Many believe some have genuinely had the gift of prognostication. People have been obsessed with French physician Nostradamus’ prophecies for 500 years. More recently, the oft-referenced animated show ‘The Simpsons’ has been touted as the modern Nostradamus. Is second sight a thing? Or do we believe what we want to believe? Either way, this topic is some weird, b’y.
Season 7 Episode 5: Sealand and Other Weird International Borders
Release Date: October 31, 2024
Our planet is about 29% land and we’ve chopped that land up to create countries. Some of the borders we have created make sense and others…well not so much. In this episode, we tell you about Sealand, an independent principality off the English coast, and bizarre international borders between India and Bangladesh, Belgium and The Netherlands, and even Canada and the United States.
Season 7 Episode 6: Slenderman: Modern Folklore and The Slenderman Attempted Murder Trial
Release Date: November 14, 2024
A photoshop contest brought forth a modern-day urban legend: Slenderman. Though we can clearly trace the origins of this monster’s creation, for at least 2 pre-teens, this fictional character became real enough to inspire a terrible crime.
Season 7: Episode 7: Out of Place Artifacts
Release Date: December 12, 2024
Ever find something in an impossible place? Like your coat in the fridge or ice cream in your closet? How did you manage to get that stuff in such wrong places? What if you found a 1920s spark plug in a half-million-year-old geode or an aluminum wedge next to 10,000-year-old mastodon bones? These would be much more difficult to explain and yet these items have been found. In this episode we’re talking about out of place artifacts. It’s quite the puzzle and, so far, no one has been able to figure it out.
Season 7 Episode 8: Cults Part 1: Heaven’s Gate
Release Date: December 26, 2024
This is a two-part episode because there was just so much weirdness! In Cults Part 1: Heaven’s Gate we will talk about how this UFO cult started and how it ended. Stay tuned for the end bloopers for our tangent discussion on the best Jokers.
