    Ancient Megafauna Pt 2

    A long long time ago (but not all that far away) there were beasts of great sizes that roamed the earth, skies, and seas. Today, joined by a grumpy old dog and a group of very happy birds, we discuss some of these marvelous extinct beings. We bring you the hell pig who once terrorized the land, a real life kraken deep in the depths of the ocean, and a massive aerial insect who came long before birds and bats even existed. If you have any topic suggestions or personal weird stories, please DM us on Instagram or BlueSky or send us an email at whataboutweirdpod@gmail.com Thank you for listening!

    Weird Laws Pt 1 (Re-release)

    (Re-Release!) Your two favorite hosts take turns laughing hysterically at some weird laws in their home states, as well exploring a few strange laws in other US states. Update on the dog catcher law in CO, they don't actually serve the notice to the dog, they just have to post a notice of their intent to impound the dog including a picture at the animal shelter for at least 3 days before they can actually impound the dog. But it sure would make it even more funny if they were out there notifying the dogs. If you have any paranormal, UFO, or cryptid stories or would just like to share some strange facts please send us an email at whataboutweirdpod@gmail.com Thank you!

    The Green Children of Woolpit

    This week we go back in time to discuss the case of the green children of Woolpit. We learn about the town, wolf pits, medical history, and two kids who really love beans. Was it just a folk story? Or is it a historic event explained by medical science? Could they have been fae? Or maybe they were beings from a Christian town in Hollow Earth... Take a shot every time we say crotch goblin in the first 10 minutes (warning: you may get alcohol poisoning).
