Tall Tale Social Club

Tall Tale Social Club is a paranormal comedy podcast from the beautiful woods of Wasilla, Alaska.

    Night Nurses Reveal What They See at 3 AM & More

    Every night shift nurse has one story they won't tell their family at Thanksgiving, and almost all of them happen at exactly three in the morning. Okay, that's a little theatrical, maybe not exactly 3 a.m., but you get it. The night shift is notoriously spooky by ambiance alone, and when you add the frightful, and often times completely unexplainable experiences shared by those brave enough to work the night shift, it's no wonder these folks make the big bucks. Just from posting clips leading up to this episode, we received countless first hand accounts from nurses all over the globe, sharing their experiences through comments and dm's. So much so, that we might just need to make a part two, filled with exclusively listener submissions. So if you're a nurse, or know a nurse that has experienced a thing or two they can't explain while on the job, please be sure to comment your story below, or send it in to mothy@talltalesocialclub.com (make sure you don't add an S at the end of TALE. It's singular, not plural.) and you might just be featured in the next installment.

    Park Rangers STILL Can't Explain These 4 Things

    Park rangers work in some of the most remote places in the country, and over the years, a surprising number of them have shared stories they still can't explain. In this episode, we look at four real accounts from named park rangers. You'll hear from members of the Navajo Rangers' Special Projects Unit, whose investigations included reports of Bigfoot, UFOs, hauntings, and shape-shifters, including one case where coins reportedly fell from nowhere during an investigation. We also cover the story of a backcountry ranger in North Carolina who watched a man hike up a mountain in the middle of the night and silently stare at a campground full of sleeping children until sunrise. Then there's Yellowstone ranger Bob "Action" Jackson, who described seeing a tall, two-legged, fur-covered figure moving through the backcountry, and Galen Clark, America's first park ranger, who claimed he once heard the cries of a drowned child coming from an empty lake in Yosemite. We also take a look at several well-known national park disappearances, including Dennis Martin, Stacy Arras, and Trenny Gibson, along with the Missing 411 phenomenon and the strongest arguments both for and against it. Some of these stories have reasonable explanations. Others are a little harder to dismiss. Everything in this episode is based on real people, documented cases, and firsthand accounts. Whether you think there's something strange happening in the wilderness or not, these are stories that have stuck with the people who experienced them. Get your thick hiking socks ready, we're going off trail.

    281 | Things Fire Watchers See That No One Else Believes

    Imagine being alone in a glass box on top of a mountain, a hundred feet in the air, with nothing but a radio, a pair of binoculars, and a single ladder going up, and at 2 a.m., something starts climbing the ladder. In this episode we're taking you inside the strange, lonely, and quietly haunted world of America's fire lookouts. This week we unpack real, first-person accounts from people who spent their summers alone in fire towers across the Pacific Northwest and the Canadian boreal forest, including the legendary Fire Tower Road encounter, a documented BFRO report from Oregon's Ochoco National Forest, the eerie radio voice heard by writer Trina Moyles, and the unsolved 2006 disappearance of fire lookout Stephanie Stewart. Whether you believe in Bigfoot, Missing 411, or just the slow, weird power of isolation on the human mind, this one will keep you up at night.
