Did It All For WHAT Nookie?
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.

The Truth is IN HERE
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.

Lightbulb Boycott
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.

Mother Shipton & the Dreamlets
TW: witchcraft, murder, air travel disasters Hi Weirdos!! Welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD-- the podcast for all things strange & unusual, wicked and WILD, perky and petrifying and everything in between. 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.

APOPECALYPSE
TW: Torture, starvation, humiliation, death, apocalypse & end times (specifically the religious kind) Another day, another END TIMES PROPHECY. That's ok though, because after THIS episode you're either going to feel secure that the world is not going to end OR you're going to be begging for its destruction. Hello this is Keep It Weird, the podcast for all things strange & unusual! Every time we get together we chat about something WEIRD and this episode is no exception. Ashley starts us of with the segment END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT and tells us all about the PROPHECY OF SAINT MALACHY (more commonly referred to as The Prophecy of the Popes) In 1139 AD Malachy had an intense vision that documented ALL future popes. The end times would come during the time of the 112th pope. AND WOULDN'T YA JUST KNOW IT -- guess who is number 112! Lauren does nothing to make us feel better about ourselves as we dive into REALITY TV CORNER and discuss the horrific story Susunu! Denpa Shōnen in which a young fella named Nasubi was forced to stay alone and unclothed in a small apartment (with no food or access to the outside world) until he won enough money playing mail in sweepstakes to earn his way out. Did we mention he didn't know he was being broadcast LIVE?? And finally we jam our way into REAL OR HOAX as we discuss the Nazca Alien Mummies. You may remember them from that presentation to the congress of Mexico last year? Journalist (& ufologist) Jaime Maussan is NOT letting go of these corpses and he's still releasing bits of their discoveries every day. Are these cake-like mummies the real deal?? Or are they just another hoax (like the mummies he produced in 2015) (and the mummies he produced in 2016)(and the mummies he produced in 2017) Check out some links below if you want to do some more research into today's topics!!

Jabberwocky Strikes Again
TW: genetic experimentation on animals, mention of Satan Oh Frabjious Day, weirdos! Welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD, the podcast for all things strange and unusual, hairy and scary, mysterious and unknown and everything in between!! This week we cover FOUR very WEIRD topics, we introduce some new segments, we show off some cool stuff we bought with our adult money and we even recite some poetry. Lauren starts us off with her very first MONSTER WATCH as we head to Santa Paula California in search of the BILLIWHACK MONSTER. This thing might be a bigfoot, a government experiment gone horribly awry, an interdimensional creature that crawled through a hole in space-time or possibly the devil himself. Ashley brings us two stories in a new segment she calls MONKEY'N AROUND! First up is our new favorite Orangutan, KEN ALLEN. Known as the "Hairy Houdini" at the San Diego zoo, Ken became famous for outwitting his zoo handlers and escaping his "inescapable" enclosure several times. Then we head into the modern day and discuss China splicing human DNA into chimpanzees. The goal is to attempt to find the gene that gave us consciousness... but could it result in Planet of the Apes? And finally Lauren gives us a BIT O' BIOLOGY with a 2009 study in Scientific American regarding music and how not only does it move us emotionally and affect our "heart" but it also might affect our HEART!! That's right, it's possible that Music may help keep your cardiovascular system regulated and we may be able to use music in the future to help treat victims of heart attacks and strokes to re-regulate their circulatory systems.

Hello and welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD; the podcast for all things strange and unusual. declassified and dangerous, haunted and hinky and everything in between. Every time we get together it's another opportunity to talk about something WEIRD and this week is definitely no exception. Ashley starts us off with a DECLASSIFIED diving into yet another secret CIA operation called Operation Midnight Climax and yes it's exactly what it sounds like. A decade long operation under the MK ULTRA program wherein the CIA hired sex workers to bring clients back to their government funded bordello and illegally dose them with LSD and other mind altering substances. Lauren takes us into an UNSOLVED MYSTERY straight out of Black Forest Colorado-- where a family moves into a home that may actually be built directly on top of a rip in space-time. Flashing lights, loud sounds, apparitions, music, laser beams, chemical burns, and faces in all of the mirrors. Count me out, fellas. And last but not least we tiptoe into TERRIFYING TECHNOLOGY and examine the theory that our modern technological boom may have been a gift (or a weapon) given to us by extraterrestrials all the way back in Roswell, New Mexico. We discuss Colonel Phillip J Corso's claims that whatever crashed in Roswell led to fiberoptics and microchips & therefore computers an the internet and we also take a look at an indigenous tribe, deep in the Amazon, called the Marubo and what happens when you give a community their first access to the internet.

Quarter Past a Cricket's Leg
Hi Weirdos! Or should I say… high weirdos? Welcome to a very special episode of KEEP IT WEIRD– your one stop shop for all things strange and unusual, stoned and spooky, blitzed and bonkers & everything in between. What makes this week so special is that it’s our BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION for the best co host that side (or THIS side) of the Mississippi. Lauren and Ashley have been best friends for going on fifteen years now (EW how did we get so old) and were sick and tired of not being able to PARTY TOGETHER on special occasions. So we did a little “gardening” and poured ourselves some fruity beverages and set off to BLOW EACH OTHERS MINDS with some absolutely crazy science, biology, history and trivia. We cover how stars and planets are made, how many blimps we have on Earth, how you can tell the temperature based on a cricket’s chirp, which famous horror director had to say goodbye to his bellybutton, an ancient city full of skyscrapers that you didn’t know existed, where the sound comes from when we snap our fingers, and even alligators who can gallop faster than Gunpowder (that’s Ichabod Crane’s horse… obviously) So buckle your seatbelts, maybe take a toke or two yourself, relax, melt into the couch, WAIT too much melting. Don’t forget to breathe. Yes you ARE breathing. Chill out, relax, meeeelt into the couch. There we go. Open your mind to weirdness. Let it flow through you.

Listener Divination Readings

Listener Divination Readings
Hi Weirdos!! Welcome to a very special episode-- our LISTENER DIVINATION READINGS! Consider this your supplemental learning materials for last week's episode "Homework for Witches" where we taught you all about different forms of divination! In this episode, we take what we've learned about divination through Tarot Cards, Oracle Cards, Rune Casting & Bibliomancy and we put it to work. YOU, our lovely and loyal listeners, sent in your very own personal questions hoping to get answers and direction from the universe and let me tell you-- the universe came through in a BIG WAY. Ashley cast a set of runes, Lauren drew a tarot card and our resident witch Laura Lareau did an oracle card reading for each question and we came today with our results. This was such a fun and interesting experiment and we were SHOOK to find that each of our readings were so similar to each other for each question. It's almost as if... the universe... was communicating. But I guess we won't know until we hear from our participants! We will definitely be giving updates in future episodes to let you know how spot on (or how far off) our readings were and if we were able to offer any words of wisdom to assist in their lives. If you ever want to participate in our DIVINATION READINGS we are going to offer them every single month over on our patreon at www.patreon.com/keepitweirdpodcast so head over and JOIN US if you want to know what your future has in store.

Homework for Witches

Homework for Witches
I can see your future, weirdos! And the future looks BRIGHT! Welcome to Keep It Weird, the podcast for all things strange and unusual, freaky and fabulous, wicked and wild and EVERYTHING in between! Everytime we get together we talk about something weird, and what is weirder than fortune telling?! This week's episode is very special, as we are learning all about DIVINATION! Divination is an extremely OLD practice because since the beginning of mankind we've all been very worried about what our futures hold for us. Whether it's regarding our love life, our career, the cities we live in or the cars we drive-- we're constantly looking towards that future and wondering "How do I get there?" But divination goes far deeper than the Magic 8 Ball or a game of MASH- - Divination can help you navigate your current situation and reconcile with your past. It can help take the emotional load off of your shoulders and give you hope for tomorrow. As three practitioners of divination, we wanted to look deeper into the methods and discover how our ancestors used to perform them (warning... there are entrails,) how we got the tools we have today, and discover NEW tools to enhance our lives. Lauren starts us off with some of the strangest and most gruelling forms of divination from the past, Ashley brings us closer to the present with the discovery and use of RUNES, and Laura teaches us about Oracle Cards and how they differ from their more popular cousin the Tarot. Don't listen to Ashley at the beginning of the episode when she promises personal readings to listeners at the very end-- that's going to be its own episode and will be released ASAP so you can see the types of questions you can ask and the myriad of answers you can receive while divining. If you ever have a question you'd like answered using divination-- join our patreon at ! We're going to be offering MONTHLY readings for our most loyal listeners and YOU could be one of them! FOLLOW us on social media @keepitweirdcast SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube Channel at LEAVE A REVIEW on whatever app you are listening on-- 5 stars are our favorite, but we'll never turn down 4 ;) Stay tuned for our DIVINATION READINGS

Pimp My Funeral
RIP WEIRDOS! Welcome to Keep It Weird, the podcast for all things strange and unusual, terrific yet terrible, bogus and beautiful and everything in between! A couple times a month we get together to chat about something WEIRD and of course this week is no exception. We are going to be taking a trip into the past with a crazy story of reincarnation, storming into a television network to yell at them for creating another horrific reality tv show and visiting a foreign country on the other side of the planet to join a protest! Ashley starts us off with DONT FEAR THE REAPER and the story of Jenny Cockell, an English GENIUS (no joking around) who has had memories of her past life (excuse me, LIVES) since she was four years old. In the 90's she was not only able to find the home she lived in in her life before, she was also able to find all of her surviving "children" and reunite them. Lauren takes us into REALITY TV CORNER as we explore TLC's 2013 reality tv hit "Best Funeral Ever." Ok, maybe it wasn't so much of a hit, it only lasted a season and a half but boy was it packed with unique, special and sometimes downright STRANGE funerals. Then, we hop into WHERE IN THE WORLD IS KEEP IT WEIRD GOING as Ashley takes us for a brief trip to South Korea as we explore the B4 movement. Bihon, Bichulsan, Biyeonae, Bisekseu: No marriage, no childbirth, no romance, no sex. It turns out that women DON'T need men to survive and in a lot of cases, it's actually detrimental to our health to be near them. Sorry not sorry!

We are SINGING OUR PRAISES, we are ALIGNING OUR CHAKRAS and we are SPEAKING IN TONGUES this episode is ALL about religion. Ashley starts us off with one of our favorite segments WHAT IF GOD WAS ONE OF US as we learn all about the RAPTURE. What it is, when it was created and how it differs from what is *actually* in the bible. Ruh Roh. Lauren takes us into a WHERE IN THE WORLD IS KEEP IT WEIRD GOING and the answer to that question.... is Utah. Utah in the 1930's to be exact, when Mary Ogden brought her spiritualist movement to a hollow rock in the middle of freaking no where and things got weird.

PT Barnum Would Never
Trigger Warnings: mental health disorders, death, incest Hi Weirdos! Welcome back to KEEP IT WEIRD - the podcast for all things strange and unusual, creepy yet casual, funky n' fresh and always a little silly. Every month we get together to talk about something WEIRD and this week is no exception. Ashley & Lauren have a lot of STUFF to talk about this week. Ancient stuff, creepy stuff, 'TOO MUCH' stuff. Lauren starts us off with one of our sponsored segments ANCIENT ARTIFACTS (with Addie Rife!) In it she teaches us about some 100 year old mermaid mummies out of Japan that researchers were able to X Ray to see what the heck was actually going on. It turns out PT Barnum's Fiji mermaid was much older than we initially thought it was. But why the heck were they frankenstein-ing these fish monkeys to begin with?? (To learn about how YOU can sponsor a segment of our show head to & check out our donation tiers) Then Ashley brings us into a brand new segment AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL where we discuss stories out of American History that make you scream WHAT?! Today we're learning about the lives of the Collyer Brothers, their infamous mansion in Manhattan, & their incredibly tragic deaths. Known as America's First Hoarders, their home was in such horrific conditions that still to this day NYC police officers refer to dangerous hoarder homes & buildings to "Collyer's Mansions."

The Women Who Stare at Ghosts
TW: child abuse, murder, sexual assault, poisoning, execution Hi Weirdos! Welcome back to Keep It Weird, the podcast for all things strange & unusual! As with our last episode, there is no video for this episode WOMP WOMP our bad but have no fear!! Videos will be back in episode 3. THIS WEEK HOWEVER, Episode 2 of Season 8, we are getting pretty dark. Usually we like to balance out the darkness with the light (as above, so below - praise Baphomet) but hey sometimes it doesn't work out that way. Lauren is starting us out with a new segment called REALITY TV CORNER and is introducing us to some REALLY messed up reality tv shows that, not surprisingly, did not make it further than a season or two. THE SWAN on Fox wherein "ugly" women were given full plastic surgery makeovers to win a chance to compete in a beauty pageant and KID NATION on CBS which should have just been called "Child Endangerment: The Series." Then Ashley takes the lead to teach us about a man named Jolly who was not very Jolly at all. Louis Joyland West has some of the clearest and most nefarious connections of ANY scientist to the CIA's top secret (now declassified) program MK ULTRA (1953-1973) and one event he is connected to is so horrific... so monstrous... and so suspicious that you will struggle to believe it.

Safe FUN Conspiracies
TW: death, overdose, missing persons, mental health, poisoning Hi Weirdos! Welcome to season 8 of Keep It Weird!! First off, lets just get the business end out of the way. There is NO video for this episode. We're taking it back to the old school. NOT by choice, we recorded episode 1 and 2 last weekend and our video files did NOT make it out alive. What, did you think this would go smoothly? Did you think we could just JUMP BACK IN to the show we've been doing for over 7 years and things would just WORK OUT? That's not the world we're living in, baby. lol That being said SEASON 8 is going to be full of strange and horrifying stories, hilarious and interesting guests and far more of ASHLEY & LAUREN than we ever imagined you guys would be into. In this first episode, we're just dipping our toe & testing the waters. We're updating you on what's been going on in our world, what we've done over hiatus, and our absolute favorite things that have happened in the last three months. We discuss the missing Kate Middleton, the Miami Mall aliens in Florida, how sad we are to have missed Willy's Chocolate Experience in Glasgow and we even give a quick update on those men found dead in their friends backyard in Missouri. We also wouldn't leave you hanging on the creep factor-- we close out the show with some creepy real life ghost stories sure to send a chill up your spine.

A Very Un-Mele Kalikimaka

A Very Un-Mele Kalikimaka
It’s a bright Hawaiian Christmas Day and we’re here to F*CK SH*T UP. Welcome Weirdos to our last REGULAR episode of the season! It’s time to get a little festive! This week we have FOUR gruesome, creepy, mind-bending, strange stories for you to feast your ears (and eyes!) on. Lauren starts us off with a beautiful vacation into a PARANORMAL PARADISE! She teaches us about the legend of Hawaii’s MOST HAUNTED HOUSE- The Kaimuki House- and the (Japanese??) ghost (cat??) that lives inside it Ashley swings us around to a CONSPIRACY THEORY that Human Beings could not have been originally FROM planet Earth and the proof of that lies in our wittle babies. Humans are the only mammals on the planet that need YEARS to be able to care/fend for themselves… but why is that? Is it because this isn’t our planet? Lauren comes back at us with a TRUE CRIME TIME that has a Christmas twist! On December 25 1929 in Germantown, North Carolina Charles Davis “Charlie” Lawson murdered his wife and six of his seven children. What on Earth could have driven him to do such a horrific act? And finally, to lighten things up a bit, Ashley finishes off the episode with a new segment all about URBAN LEGENDS! But not the ones we are familiar with here in the US— we’re traveling to Ukraine to investigate the mystery of the BLACK VOLGA and then hitting up South Korea to see if there’s anything behind their fear of electric fans.

Hi Weirdos! Welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD— the podcast for all things strange & unusual! Every week we get together to chat about all things WEIRD and this one is a bit of a doozy. We only have TWO segments for you today as they are a little bit more hefty than our usuals but don’t worry, we’re packing the same punch. Lauren goes first as she teaches us all about a 66 year old UNSOLVED MYSTERY known as THE BOY IN THE BOX! We learn about the discovery of the body, the autopsy reports, the investigation, the theories and where we are with the case today. Ashley then heads into TERRIFYING TECHNOLOGY where we attempt to rank and review the technology present in episodes of Black Mirror. From uploading your consciousness to bringing back the dead with AI to human yelp reviews to killer robo dogs. We attempt to decide WHICH future tech is the worst case scenario and we look at a few technologies that actually exist or are being created today that seem to have been inspired by this horror sci fi show!

Rich with Ice Money
WOMEN & CHILDREN FIRST, Weirdos!! A new Titanic Conspiracy Theory is here, hot off the presses! Welcome to KEEP IT WEIRD, the podcast for all things strange & unusual and the BEST place to find fear and fun. This week we've got FOUR strange segments for you starting off strong with a WHERE IN THE WORLD (Is Keep It Weird Going?!) Lauren is taking us to bright and sunny.... Connecticut? Yep, that's what my notes say. We're going to Connecticut to check out the world's only (??) CHRISTIAN theme park! Theme park is... a bit of a stretch, admittedly, but HOLY LAND USA is an American landmark that should probably be torn down for safety reasons. Built in the 50s and officially shut down in 1984 this abandoned death trap has been sitting on a hill in Waterbury for almost FOUR decades and you can learn all about it here. Next up is ANCIENT ARTIFACTS with ADDIE RIFE! Ashley is going to be teaching us all about an artifact from the 1800s that has seen more of the world than either of our two hosts. If you guessed that the artifact was Napoleon Bonaparte's penis then you should play the lottery. Find out where Napoleon's penis is and where it's been and what it looks like today! Lauren sings My Heart Will Go On with a CONSPIRACY THEORY all about our favorite boat. And our favorite banker? He's basically the only banker we know. JP Morgan (of Real Housewives fame) MAY have been behind the sinking of this famous ship all in the name of greed. Find out why "Titanic Truthers" believe this wild conspiracy. And finally, Ashley sends us packing with a brand new segment CREEPY CLOWN WATCH!! Pretty self explanatory, we'll be learning all about a creepy killer clown from Chicago IL! No not THAT creepy killer clown, a different one! Charles "Conway the Clown" Cramer (and his wife Mary) for sure killed one woman, but may have killed more, in Chicago in the early 20th Century. What came of the traveling circus couple after the murder(s)? Listen to find out.... Check out some links below if you want to do more research on today's FASCINATING topics!

Well git on there little weirdo! Welcome to THE RANCH!! It's spacious! It's cozy! It's FULL OF MONSTERS?! It's another week of KEEP IT WEIRD, the podcast for all things strange and unusual and this week we're home, home on the range! Lauren starts us off with some VERY COOL science news in a segment we like to call the MAGIC SCHOOL BUS! The bus often takes us down someone's throat or up someone's butt but today we are fortunate enough that we're just traveling into a petri dish. Scientists at the Weizmann Institute just announced that they've successfully GROWN A HUMAN EMBRYO!! In a lab!! What does this mean? Can we grow humans now? Are they real people? Are they clones?? All your questions will be answered! Ashley takes on her first WHERE IN THE WORLD (Is Keep It Weird Going?) and takes us to bright & sunny.... Arizona?? That's right, Rainbow Arizona to be exact, to check out the infamous STARDUST RANCH! Where couple John and Joyce Edmonds lived for 20 long, hard years alongside aliens, ghosts, portals to other dimensions, and monsters that killed their pets. Were they being abducted and experimented on? Does Stardust Ranch contain portals to another world? Who was the mysterious machete man?! Move over Skinwalker Ranch, there's another ranch in town.

Just Another Foggy Tuesday
Well well well, guess who’s back on their BS Weirdos! We’re back and we’re very sorry for the brief hiatus- sometimes life just cocks it’s fist back and gives you a swift left hook to the jaw and knocks you on your ass and the thought of being silly (and especially talking about death) is inconceivable. But we appreciate how lovely and forgiving you always are when we have to miss a week, especially when it is unexpected. This week your girls have some GREAT segments for you starting off with a BRAND NEW SEGMENT called DON’T FEAR THE REAPER!! This week’s DFTR is all about how reincarnation is totally real– it has to be! How else would you explain the life of Dorothy Eady?? Dorothy was born a normal girl in London in 1904 and everything was totally ordinary until the age of three on the day she DIED. But don’t worry she came back…. Again? Lauren follows it up with one of her favorite segments CURSED CROONERS AND SPOOKY SONGS and today the gals learn that they really didn’t know anything about the BUDDY HOLLY CURSE– but have no fear, you’ll learn it all here. Buddy Holly died in a plane crash in February 3, 1959 while on tour along with musicians Ritchie Valle and “The Big Bopper” JP Richardson and if that wasn’t unlucky enough… death seemed to follow the other tour performers around. Is it a curse? Or were they all DESTINATIONED?! Ashley follows CCASS with a PARANORMAL PARADISE about a house that bled?! It’s true, in 1987 in Atlanta Georgia the home of William and Minnie Winston started to produce HUMAN blood… and no one could tell them why. And finally, Lauren finishes off the episode with QUESTION QUESTION and the gals get a good laugh about what they would each be arrested for. Check out some links BELOW if you want to read more about the stories told on today’s episode. PLEASE CONSIDER donating to our Patreon at if every single person who listened/downloaded our episodes each week were to donate just $1 a month Keep It Weird would be our FULL TIME JOB. Imagine the bonus content. Imagine the episode quality. Imagine the guests we would have time to book! IMAGINE THE INVESTIGATIONS WE’D BE ABLE TO GO ON! Follow us on social media @keepitweirdcast on instagram and twitter and join our Facebook Group KEEP IT WEIRD PODCAST! And the holidays are officially here so if you’re looking for something to get yourself or a friend who is just as obsessed with the WEIRD as you are head over to and get yourself a prezzie.

It's time for a graveyard smash, weirdos! Welcome to another creep-tastic episode of KEEP IT WEIRD- the podcast for all things strange, unusual and... classic? This week we're taking a trip back in time to chat about UNIVERSAL CLASSIC MONSTERS!! And.... one DC character, but we'll get to that. Ashley & Lauren are joined once again by our monster expert BILLY ROACH as we take a look at who created these monsters and why. Billy starts us off by covering FRANKENSTEIN; the fascinating details of how and where it was written by Mary Shelley, as well as the various film versions of the creature and movies and monsters that have been inspired by the stitched-together-man over the decades! Ashley comes in with THE INVISIBLE MAN! What were HG Well's inspirations for creating this man who couldn't be seen? The amazing special effects that haven't been beated so far from a movie made in 1933, why Hollow Man is the best interpretation of this character in the 21st Century, and why The Invisible Man (2020) is actually NOT a good movie. And finally, Lauren. Poor Lauren, who was given the assignment of "Swamp Thing" because Ashley didn't know there was a difference between SWAMP THING and The Creature from the Black Lagoon. But guess what? SHE KNOWS NOW! Lauren dives into both the fish man AND the plant man in her segment-- teaching us the origins of Swamp Thing in DC Comics, the various past iterations of the monster on film and even some upcoming projects to look forward to featuring this man-plant. Follow us on Instagram @keepitweirdcast to play along with our OCTOBER CONTESTS for a chance to win a FREE SHIRT!!
