Episode 412 - Personal Jesus (The Alien Deception, Part 1)
Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we begin a deep dive into fringe religious conspiracy content once again with a story referred to as the Alien Deception. How are all the conspiracy theorists holding up now that the whole Grusch "whistleblower" stuff has gone down? Has the Vatican been collaborating with the US government on secret UFO stuff since before even Roswell? Does the Vatican have a giant telescope named LUCIFER? We discuss all this and much more!

Episode 411 - Big Bopper Facts (Clyde Tombaugh)
Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we learned about the man who discovered the planet (or is it?) Pluto! Did you know that amateur astronomer Clyde Tombaugh not only discovered Pluto but also had some interesting UFO experiences? Was Clyde the exact right type of guy to report on UFO experiences? Did the CIA try to do him like they did the Big Bopper? We discuss all this and more!

Episode 410 - Operation Avalanche (FYD?)
Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we decided to mix up the formula a little bit and watch a sort-of-documentary, sort-of-mockumentary, sort-of-reality, sort-of-fiction film. We watched and discussed the 2016 movie Operation Avalanche, co-starring the director and writer of the film, Matt Johnson. How exactly did the two CIA agents come up with a plan to fake the moon landing? How does a blending of reality and fiction lend to a conspiracy theory narrative? We discuss all this and more!

Episode 409 - Jacob Or Not Jacob (Kasai Rex)
Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we discuss what may be the most cryptid-dense area of Africa: the Congo! We've also discussed many stories of dinosaur cryptids that survived to the present day, but this time...we're talkin' T. Rex, baby! That's right. Does a Tyrannosaurus Rex cryptid stalk the swamps of the Congo? Can this thing rip a rhinoceros to shreds like it's nothing? Can it please do it to these big game exotic hunters, too? We discuss all this and more!

Episode 408 - Two Physical Two Ghost (Danny's Bed)
Hey there friends and weirdos! This week Nile tells the story of the poltergeist'd up haunted artifact known as "Danny's bed." Did one antique trader bring a confluence of ghosts into his house? Did a specter called Uncle Sam appear and absolutely trash this dude's house? What about a kind lady spirit who likes to set the table and tidy the house? How about the spirit of a beloved local celebrity girl? Seriously, how do ghosts even work, anyway? We discuss all this and more!

Episode 407 - Gut Bugs (Harikikigaki Mushi)
Hey there friends and weirdos! This week we venture into a "yokai-esque" territory with a story about gut bug monsters from medieval Japan! Do little devilish monsters live inside our bodies that influence our health and give us diseases? The answer is yes - science confirms it. But what kinds of bugs? Sinister little beetle men who snitch about your misdeeds to the gods? Turtle clumps that wear little hats to protect themselves from acupuncture medicine? How's your gut bacteria feeling these days? We discuss all this and more!
