    TW: Murder, racism, war, mention of rape Welcome back, Weirdos and WATCH OUT FOR VOORHEES!! it's another Friday the 13th episode! Every time we get together we chat about something WEIRD and this week is chock-full of crazy. Lauren starts us off by reminding us the reason for the season-- the season of course being Friday the 13th and the reason being FEAR. Lauren breaks down some of the WORST most horrible horrific things to have ever occurred on Friday the 13th - just to get our blood flowing. Then Ashley comes in with a WHOPPER of a CONSPIRACY THEORY!! Did you know that some people believe that the reason the United States invaded Iraq in 2003 was because they were attempting to reverse engineer alien technology and they knew that there was information hidden in ancient sumerian texts & artifacts that held the secrets they were missing? SOUNDS NUTS but hear us out-- there might be something to this one. Then Lauren finishes off strong with a WHERE IN THE WORLD IS KEEP IT WEIRD and a trip to the Wisconsin Dells. What is a dell you ask? Nobody knows. We talk about water parks, haunted saloons, creepy TCBYs, clown museums, strange archeological finds and more. Long live the dells!

    Hi Weirdos!! Happy BLACK Friday we hope you're ready to do the Brain Worm Squirm as we dive into this week's WEIRD topics and celebrate all things DARK! Lauren starts us off with a banger as she launches into JEEPERS CREEPERS (I hate it so much) and teaches us about Cotard's Syndrome. It's nickname however is maybe more appropriate: "Walking Corpse Syndrome." Cotard's is a very rare mental disorder wherein the patient believes either they ARE dead (or dying,) they no longer exist, or sometimes simply that they are losing blood, internal organs or body parts. Its... rough. But no worries, Ashley is here to lighten the mood with an ANCIENT ARTIFACTS (sponsored by Addie Rife) that is all about AYAHUASCA! How the drug is made, what it is doing to your brain when ingested and even how use of the drug could solve some of mankind's OLDEST mysteries.

    Did It All For WHAT Nookie?
    2024/11/15

    Welcome to Hell, Weirdos!!


    Just kidding, it won't ALL be hell. Only a little hell, as a treat. Welcome to KEEP IT WEIRD the podcast for all things strange and unusual, unsettling and unsolved, unexplained and overwhelmed, spicy, silly and everything in between and we are OFFICALLY BACK to finish out another year of weird. This week is heavy on the mysteries but, hey, so is life my friend! Ashley starts us off with the Canneto di Caronia fires that took place in 2003 & 2004. HUNDREDS of spontaneous fires erupted in the small Sicilian village prompting the government to evacuate and bring in hundreds of specialists to look for a cause.. but to this day... we have very few answers. Lauren brings us a new segment THE MISSING and covers the tragic story of Christine Walters who has now been missing for 16 years. Was she involved in the illegal farming of marijuana? Did she join a cult? Was she attacked by someone on one of her nature walks? Unfortunately we may never know Just in case that last story got a little too depressing-- Ashley comes back in with an unsolved mystery from 1969 revolving the LESSER FAMOUS space flight Apollo 10. Something very strange happened aboard that ship and we'll never know who was responsible.... Check out some links below if you want to read up on any of the topics we discussed this week.

    TW: death, murder, torture cannibalism, animal injuries, government conspiracies, and brief mention of pedophilia Do you think I'm spooky, weirdos? Welcome to KEEP IT WEIRD the podcast for all things strange & unusual, X-tra creepy & conspiratorial, X-tremely vile and X-actly what you need this October This episode is an X-FILES-TRAVAGANZA!! It's time to put on your Scully and Mulder thinking caps to try and get to the bottom of some REAL LIFE X-Files that REALLY could have used Fox and Dana's investigating. Our (returning) special guest this week, artist BILLY ROACH is bringing us a nice CONSPIRACY as we chat about the fact & fictions surrounding the REPTILIANS. Are they here? Have they taken over the bodies of politicians, actors and royalty? DO THEY HAVE LOW BLOOD PRESSURE? Ashley makes sure we get a little ALIEN CHAT in right at the beginning before she brings us a very Scully-friendly SCIENTIFIC look at a 100+ year old mystery. How in the world did Edward Leedskalnin build Coral Castle in Florida? How did he lift objects that were close to 60,000 lbs? BY HIMSELF?! In the dark.... ?? And finally Lauren brings us our MONSTER OF THE WEEK as she chronicles the life and death of a man only known as TARRARE. His insatiable hunger (that was caused by either an unknown disease or the fact that he was born on another planet) got him kicked out of his family home, made him the star of the circus, almost got him killed in the war between France & Prussia and eventually put him in some real hot water when he turned to human flesh for satisfaction.

    TW: Sexual assault, suspicions of murder, missing persons, short mention of abuse of an animal

    Bonjour, Weirdos and welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD the podcast for all things strange & unusual, conspiratorial & psychological, unsolved & unhinged and EVERYTHING in between. This week we've got some OLD BUSINESS to attend to right off the bat because Ashley has an update from last episode on THE GATEWAY PROJECT!! Turns out... uh... page 25 has not been missing for a few years now. So we go over what that page entails and how it may just change the way you view the world forever. Then Lauren takes us into a PARANORMAL PARADISE as we discover you don't need an old dilapidated mansion to live with ghosts-- sometimes apartments can be JUST as scary! The haunting of Brooklyn's 455A Sackett Street is a strange and terrifying tale of what happens when a place is used for bad deeds for too long.... Ashley brings us home with an UNSOLVED MYSTERY and potentially even an unsolved murder, as we learn about a man named Louis Le Prince who disappeared without a trace only DAYS before he was to unveil the world's very first working moving picture machine. The patent for the machine just so happened to disappear alongside him and a mere 8 months later a very famous inventor announced that HE had invented the world's very first moving picture machine... and boy did it look an awful lot like Le Prince's design...... Today's episode is dedicated to a lover of our show, a listener we lost on September 21st, 2023. Susan Lee Bartlem, Lee to all who knew her well, passed away exactly a year to the DAY that we recorded this episode. (which was an accident... but there are no accidents.) Lee was a beloved teacher at Rockhampton Girls Grammar School in Queensland Australia for 23 years and she was a REAL WEIRDO. Not only did they play Metallica and read Anne Rice at her funeral, but her family even got Keep It Weird tattoos in her honor. It would have been a thrill to meet Lee in real life, on this astral plane, but she lives on forever in the hearts of her students, her friends and family, and with all of us who call ourselves weirdos with pride.

    This week's episode is a wild ride and we're traveling all throughout space and time to bring it to you! Lauren starts us off with a WHERE IN THE WORLD (Is Keep It Weird Going?) as we astral project to an old creepy cave in LONDON where a witch was born! Mother Shipton's Cave is England's OLDEST tourist attraction-- it's been operating since 1630!! There are a lot of strange things about this cave-- specifically the petrifying water well that turns objects into stone! AND DID I MENTION A WITCH WAS BORN THERE?! Then we both fall DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE where Ashley takes us from a prophetic dream, to a plane crash, to a CIA declassified document, to NASA and then all the way back to a 13th century dance as we discuss consciousness & whether or not it can temporarily leave our bodies.
