  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the hosts kick off the show, delving into Kyle's intriguing double life: from his covert involvement with Anonymous to his weekend gig as a furniture mover. Kyle's recent endeavor to assist his mother-in-law's relocation has left him achingly sore from the strenuous lifting. Transitioning into cosmic phenomena, they explore the imminent Solar Eclipse set to grace Texas and the necessity for Cam's readiness.

    Following their initial banter, they dive into a series of captivating news pieces featuring a chilling account of a Horned Werewolf encounter in the United Kingdom's Gloucestershire region. A riveting listener submission recounts a spine-tingling episode of sleep paralysis intertwined with an eerie presence in the room. Then, they unravel the harrowing tale of a Missouri coon hunter's unnerving brush with an enigmatic "chattering" entity during a hunt, leaving both man and dogs trembling in fear.

    After the break, Cam unravels an array of astonishing tales and Extraordinary Encounters, ranging from a colossal family of armadillos to extraterrestrial notions like space clams and oil pit squids. Tune in for these intriguing narratives and more on this edition of Expanded Perspectives!

  • In this installment of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show by talking about the beautiful weather in north central Texas and how Kyle has been spending all of this time moving existing Elite shows from the prior platform to the new Patreon page. Up first, a person who worked for the U.S. Army Criminal Investigations (CID) before and during the conflicts in the war in Iraq had a bizarre encounter with something the locals called "The Goul." Then, a listener writes into the show about a strange experience she had with her mother with a cell phone that messaged and called her from her mother's dream. Next, A Wisconsin National Guardsman stationed at Ft.McCoy has a frightening encounter with an unknown tall, skinny being during a night operation. What was it?

    After the intermission, Kyle broaches the topic of a peculiar occurrence known as Geographic Psychic Trauma (GPT). This phenomenon refers to the residual energy imprint left on an object or location following a distressing or traumatic incident. It is theorized to manifest when the departure of the soul or spirit from the body happens so abruptly that any associated consciousness becomes disoriented, unable to comprehend the events or its surroundings. What distinguishes GPT hauntings from residual ones is their ability to engage with the living and exhibit a degree of awareness, whereas residual energy hauntings typically lack such responsiveness. It's important to clarify that not all traumatic events lead to GPT or residual hauntings, and hauntings, in general, can stem from various causes. Another term used to describe a spirit experiencing Geographic Psychic Trauma is "Crisis Apparition." Paranormal researchers classify Crisis Apparitions as the spirits of individuals who passed away during moments of crisis, such as murders or other traumatic events.

  • Greetings everyone,

    We would like to take a moment to provide some insights into the current status of Expanded Perspectives Elite. Firstly, a heartfelt thank you to our Elite members for their unwavering support. While we offer Expanded Perspectives for free listening, the production itself comes with significant costs, and your support has been invaluable. We initiated Expanded Perspectives nearly 11 years ago, and Expanded Perspective Elite came into existence almost 9 years ago. The podcasting landscape has undergone substantial changes since then, evolving from a novel concept to a platform with millions of shows worldwide. Nine years ago, finding services to conceal exclusive RSS feeds for paying members was a challenge. Though options like WishList Member, MemberMouse, and Patreon existed, they were not as refined as they are today.

    Initially, we chose WishList Member based on positive feedback from fellow podcasters. While it served its purpose reasonably well initially, over time, the platform deteriorated. Issues such as missing episodes, loading problems, and cumbersome sign-up processes became apparent. Recognizing these challenges, and with the platform nearly broken in the last 24 months, we decided to transition to Patreon. Our Patreon page is now live at patreon.com/expandedperspectiveselite, or you can find us on the Patreon app. For existing Expanded Perspectives Elite members, you should have access to the entire back catalog, but we recommend downloading it soon as it will be taken down at some point. If you're not an Elite member but wish to be, visit our Patreon page and sign up for $5 a month to access the complete back catalog (note that this offer will change in the next month).

    Looking ahead, Expanded Perspectives Elite will have two tiers. Tier #1, priced at $5 a month, provides access to all Elite shows from 2022 to the present, including new episodes released every Friday. Tier #2, at $10 a month, offers all new episodes, the entire back catalog, and ad-free versions of the Regular Show every Wednesday. If you enjoy Expanded Perspectives and want to support the show, joining Elite is a fantastic way to do so. Your monthly donation goes towards covering expenses like data storage, editing software, music, sound effects, recording equipment, and research materials. Some episodes are still being added to our Patreon, and we appreciate your patience during this transition. We hope to see you all on Patreon soon. Thank you for your time, and God Bless.

  • Welcome to another episode of Expanded Perspectives! In today's show, Kyle kicks things off by sharing his frustration with last-minute science projects, a familiar tale for any parent. Meanwhile, the boys steer clear of the wildfires blazing across the Texas panhandle. As the narrative unfolds, a Montana resident's peaceful mountain abode is disrupted by horrifying screams, leading to a bizarre encounter with a pale humanoid boasting enormous black eyes. Meanwhile, in Bucks County, PA, a resident's routine nighttime check on his dog takes an unexpected turn when he confronts a towering 9-foot-tall upright canine, reportedly documented in a police report.

    In a twist from central Florida, a woman recounts her unsettling encounter with a dark 7-foot tall 'Owlman' while patrolling her property near a conservation area. The suspense lingers as she remains vigilant, anticipating a possible reappearance.

    After the break, Cam delves into mysterious encounters with a creature dubbed the Owlman, also known as the Cornish Owlman or the Owlman of Mawnan. Initially considered a cryptid, it's later revealed as a therianthrope, specifically a wereavian. The Owlman's human origins remain elusive, shrouded in mystery, echoing the tale of Vivienne de Tabris from Toussaint, cursed by an unknown creature, resulting in her unborn daughter taking the form of a humanoid oriole on full moon nights. Could the Owlman's story share a similar mysterious origin? That remains undisclosed. If this had been the only sighting of this strange creature it could have been put it down to overactive imaginations. But it was only the first of several appearances of the half man and half bird which became known as the Owlman. Avian humanoid hybrids are common in folklore all across the world. They can be found in Egyptian, Hindu, Greek and Japanese cultures amongst many others.

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, Kyle and Cam talk with good friends David Flora and Derek Hayes about their new film Shadows in the Desert: High Strangeness in the Borrego Triangle. Shadows in the Desert: High Strangeness in the Borrego Triangle is a feature-length documentary from Monsters Among Us and Blurry Photos podcast hosts. After learning of numerous paranormal and mysterious stories and encounters in the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park area, Derek Hayes and David Flora set out on a quest to find the facts behind the fiction in what appears to be a paranormal "window area" hidden in the Deserts of Southern California the duo explores old west ghost stories, Sasquatch encounters, UFO reports, and ties to Native American legends and artifacts. Derek and David scour the park, kicking over rocks and trudging through the sand in an in-depth look at an area they call the "Borrego Triangle." From eerie specters at Vallecito Stage Station to newspaper reports of a dead Bigfoot at Warner Springs and witness accounts of the UFO "Goldie" up in Anza, the two researchers cover immense swaths of one of California's most beautiful regions, showcasing the landscape, folklore, features, biology, and residents along the way.

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off by talking about their recent trip to Colorado and how much more it was not taking the kids along. Then, a person writes the show about a crazy coincidence that happened a few years ago. Next, a wild encounter with a creepy white Not-Deer in Kentucky. If that wasn't strange enough, a person writes in with not one but two trash bag Duende sightings separated by years—finally, an bizarre sighting of a hideous Gnome.

    After the break, Kyle brings up some strange close encounters of the deadly kind! On January 7, 1948, 25-year-old Captain Thomas F. Mantell, a Kentucky Air National Guard pilot, died in the crash of his P-51 Mustang fighter after being sent in pursuit of an unidentified flying object (UFO). The event was among the most publicized early UFO incidents. Beneath the vast skies of Mexico and the southwestern U.S., tales of mysterious aerial encounters have etched themselves into local folklore and global myth. One event stands out, wrapped in layers of intrigue and whispers of cover-ups: the enigmatic Coyame UFO crash near the U.S.-Mexico border in 1974

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off by talking about how much they love the Indiana Jones series, but they think that it would have been better if they hadn't waited so long to film the later versions. Then, a Danville, California boy and his friends were digging in a local bog when the witness struck a huge toad. After that incident, the boy suffers a bizarre ordeal that will haunt him forever. Next, a retired logger and forest firefighter describes different encounters with the Forest People near his home in Yacolt, Washington.

    Following the break, Cam introduces a series of unsettling sightings involving enigmatic entities referred to as Black Stickmen. Humans rarely observe these peculiar humanoid beings and bear an uncanny resemblance to conventional cartoon stick figures, rendering them among the most peculiar entities ever encountered. Black Stickmen are typically characterized as tall, slender, and entirely black, existing solely in two dimensions. Witnesses report witnessing them engage in peculiar galloping movements, with some accounts suggesting they can even hover above the ground. Due to their two-dimensional nature, these entities maintain a consistent appearance from any perspective. The mystery deepens as questions arise about the identity and purpose of these elusive figures, leaving many wondering why people are encountering them in the first place.

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off by talking about the beautiful spring-like weather in the North Texas area and their upcoming trip to the Colorado mountains. Then, two cousins in the summer of 1999 were traveling towards Joplin, Missouri when they had a strange encounter with an ominous tall creature with wings crossing the road. Next, a Wyoming Elk hunter encounters a distressed hunter who tells him about a remarkable experience that he has just had with a Reptilian being in the nearby mountains.

    After the break, Cam brings up some strange coincidences. When the threads of coincidence weave through our lives, a fascinating dichotomy emerges among individuals — those quick to dismiss such happenings as mere randomness, and those attuned to discerning meaning or a grander design at play. Beyond the surface of encounters with doppelgängers or sharing birthdays with best friends lies a deeper truth: the universe consistently conspires to infuse our everyday existence with serendipitous moments. In the realm of coincidences, the 1989 paper "Methods for Studying Coincidences" by math professors Persi Diaconis and Frederick Mosteller defines a "surprising concurrence of events, perceived as meaningfully related, with no apparent causal connection." While apt, this definition falls short in capturing the essence of those extraordinary coincidences that intricately connect people and places, prompting contemplation of something beyond the ordinary.

    Join us as we explore seven remarkable coincidences — some etched in history, others mind-bending astonishing — that lead even the most rational minds to question the improbable alignment of events. The world brims with inexplicable occurrences and mysterious twists, challenging our understanding of life's unpredictable journey. From uncanny predictions to eerie parallels among seemingly unrelated events, these extraordinary stories beckon us to contemplate the enigmatic patterns that govern our universe. In this episode of Expanded Perspectives, we embark on a journey into the realm of mysterious coincidences, exploring tales that range from the man who survived two atomic bombs and the multitude of Eleanor Rigbys to Mark Twain's meteoric birthday and the synchronized deaths of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. Brace yourself for a captivating exploration of the strange and intriguing as we delve into the mysteries that surround us.

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off by talking about some very strange sightings of UAPs. Then, they get into some wild sightings of some reported Not Deer men, a jort-wearing dogman, and a human slug. After the break, the boys get into some more strange and remarkable sightings of Fae Folk. Fairies have become iconic figures in films and television. Still, beyond fantasy, numerous purported sightings of these mystical beings have been reported throughout the ages in Britain, Ireland, North America, and more. While much of the lore surrounding the collective term 'fairies' is steeped in legend and myth, many accounts persist from individuals who claim direct encounters with fairies and their enchanting activities, spanning both ancient and modern eras. Remarkably, some reports come from individuals of reputable social standing, asserting that they have witnessed or engaged with creatures unmistakably resembling fairies. Whether one chooses to embrace these accounts or not, they serve as illustrative examples of the diverse perceptions people held about fairies at different points in history. Accounts of fairy experiences, predominantly from the twentieth century, originate from a wide spectrum of individuals, including business professionals, housewives, journalists, clergymen, bus drivers, anglers, gypsies, schoolteachers, university professors, soldiers, artists, authors, poets, musicians, sculptors, actresses, and many others. So what do you think? Are the Fae real?

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off by talking about how Christmas is coming and how Cam's daughter has finished her degree at Texas A&M University. Then, a central Texas witness watches a feral hog shapeshift into a Sasquatch. Next, a person has a possible Glimmer Man sighting in their home. Was it a Glimmer Man or something else like a ghost? After the break, Kyle brings up some long lost treasure in Europe from after World War II.

    In March 1945, the Nazis set off from the city of Goerlitz with a convoy of artwork from a museum and treasures from Russia’s Amber Room. Legend has it that as the war drew to a close, a local miner saw a group of German soldiers move the train, filled with valuables, through the Owl Mountains, near the town of Walbrzych. Since dubbed the “Nazi gold train,” the locomotive has never been located and has become a topic of interest for both historians and treasure hunters. For some, it’s become an obsession, with many attempts being made to find it over the years. Some have warned the train likely doesn’t contain any gold or treasures. Instead, they posit that it was loaded with chemical agents the Nazis were transporting to Berlin in a final attempt to stop the Soviet Red Army. Dangerous nerve agents, such as Tabun, are theorized to be among the chemicals onboard. No one really knows!

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off by talking about the cowboy life and the terrible luck Kyle has been having with automobiles this week. Then, in 2008 a witness driving north on Highway 680 between Fremont and Pleasanton, California, saw something large flying about their car. It looked like a juvenile Pterosaur! Next, a Hamilton County, New York driver hit a supposed Bigfoot that was carrying a deer along Route 8 in July 2014. The incident was never reported to the local Police.

    After the break, Cam brings up some wild stories from the great state of Montana. Montana is a vast, beautiful state with sweeping landscapes, mountains, and monsters! According to Native American lore, the state’s waters have long been home to strange, sometimes deadly creatures. Flathead Lake reportedly hides a monstrous something that has been sighted for decades, and strange things are said to soar through the big sky.

  • On this special edition of the Expanded Perspectives, the guys do a cross-over with friends and fellow podcasters Jeremy, Jon, and Chris from the Belief Hole Podcast! But first, a car service driver has a bizarre encounter near Sheepshead Bay, New York when he and his passenger see a 1957 Chevy Bel Air being driven by a black-eyed couple dressed in 50s-style clothing. Then, a big game hunter and guide in Washington still feel uneasy after their personal Bigfoot encounter while hunting near Mount St. Helens about 25 years ago.

    After the break, Kyle and Cam join forces with guys from the Belief Hole Podcast to discuss some wild listener stories. Jeremy, Jon, and Chris are three brothers who have spent a weird amount of time looking into unusual topics since the days of elementary school, (which is now quite a long time ago). These three kindred souls gather together to discuss, debate, and sometimes snicker over the fantastic and mysterious goings-on that exist at the fringes of our reality. We discuss Duendes, Glimmer Man, Sasquatch, Alien Abduction, and more. So join us in our descent into the Belief Hole!

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off talking about how Thanksgiving went for both of them and how they celebrated Luke's recent birthday at Cidercade! Then, a pregnant woman in annoyed by the constant knocking at her door. When she opens the door, a black-eyed woman in her 50's demands to be let in and to use the phone! Next, a group of friends are sitting in a car and talking when they notice an odd-looking deer with one antler and weird forward-set eyes. Was this a "Not Deer"?

    After the break, Cam and Kyle get into the very interesting tale of a large giant found in Romania in 1976 that was a towering 32.8 feet tall. About 5,500 years ago, an underground gallery was constructed in the region by the Agathyrsi. In February 2012, a group of geologists followed the gold vein in the same place. They kept digging until they ended up at the base of the gallery. To their utter surprise, they found a gravestone that was not made of common rock. The geologists took a sample, and the laboratory results revealed that the components of the tombstone included 55% 50-karat gold dust, 15% granite dust, and 30% wolfram. Also, the analysis revealed that the composite rock had been made using a type of technology unknown today.

  • On this installment of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off talking about the super creepy fog that is enveloping Skelekin Studios at the time of the recording and why the fog is so spooky. Then, a Montana woman describes Sasquatch encounters with friends on the Crow Nation Reservation, her experience with an invisible being, and Irish Fae Folk legends that she heard while growing up. Next, a witness and his family were driving near Stillwater, Oklahoma when he observed a large unknown white bipedal creature in a grassy area along the highway. After the break, Cam brings up some cursed movies and movie sets!

    The film industry has consistently delved into narratives revolving around curses, whether it's the ominous videotape triggering death after seven days in "The Ring" or the thematic exploration of grief in "Smile." Curses have become a pervasive motif in cinematic storytelling, arguably instilling a deeper sense of fear than the stereotypical hockey-masked killer; once marked by a curse, escape seems futile, regardless of one's actions. Beyond the curses depicted on the screen lies a captivating realm—cursed productions that unfold behind the scenes. A subset of films is often deemed to have endured a cursed production, marked by on-set accidents, eerie coincidences, or the unfortunate deaths of cast and crew in subsequent months and years. While these cursed productions typically find a home in the horror genre, they can manifest across diverse cinematic landscapes. Some of Hollywood's most iconic films are shrouded in rumors of "cursed" productions, their notoriety stemming from a blend of urban legends and well-documented misfortunes during filming. The curse associated with the making of these movies often garners as much attention as the films themselves. Tragedies involving injuries, fires, lightning, and even death contribute to the perception of a curse hanging over these productions. In any film production, chaos and misfortune are inherent elements, yet it is the most infamous instances of troubled productions that lead audiences to believe in the ominous notion that a movie is truly cursed.

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off talking about the pig Kyle recently missed while bowhunting, Cam and Luke's upcoming birthday and some appearances they will be making on some other podcast. Then, a woman shares an account of a potential encounter with the elusive "Glimmer Man" on two separate occasions in New Mexico. What was this pixelated, invisible being doing? Next, a Greensburg, Indiana resident recalls a sighting of a bat-winged humanoid that was in a tree in his backyard. There was no sound and he never saw it fly away.

    After the break, Kyle brings up some strange sightings including a possible Jersey Devil encounter. The vast expanse of the New Jersey Pinelands is characterized by extensive pine forests and sandy trails, serving as the backdrop for the state's most notorious inhabitant – the Jersey Devil. Officially recognized as the country's sole state demon since 1938, the Jersey Devil is depicted as a peculiar creature with a kangaroo-like body, a horse's face, a dog's head, bat-like wings, horns, and a distinctive tail. Over the course of more than two and a half centuries, this enigmatic being is said to traverse the marshlands of Southern New Jersey, intermittently emerging to wreak havoc upon towns and cities.

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the boys start the show talking about all of the rain they've been getting, the cooler air, and Halloween. Then, back in April of 2008 a woman has a strange sighting of a 4.5-inch tall Cicada-looking man at the mall. Next, three adult friends are walking at night in Pleasant Hills, PA when they hear strange noises coming from a local park. Upon further examination, it turns out to be an 8-foot-tall Sasquatch!

    After the break, Kyle brings up some strange stories involving hunters, campers, and others who have had disturbing encounters while in the great outdoors. Why are there so many missing people in the forests of North America? In the United States alone, the staggering number of people who go missing each year, as reported by the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs), exceeds 200,000! Fortunately, a significant percentage, ranging between 89% and 92%, is eventually recovered, either alive or deceased. However, when it comes to disappearances in the wilderness, there is a notable lack of comprehensive tracking and data oversight by government agencies such as the Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture's US Forest Service.

    Is there something else more sinister that is going on in the woods? Could these accounts be mere misunderstandings or products of deranged imagination? The impact these encounters have had on those who lived through them is undeniable, leaving an indelible mark on their lives, one that they will carry with them for all time. Moreover, the unsettling reality of missing individuals in these remote areas cannot be dismissed as mere hallucinations. It is a tangible phenomenon, a grim fact that underscores the mysteries of the wilderness and leaves us with more questions than answers. All of this and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives!

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show-off talking about Kyle and Luke's recent trip to 5 haunted houses and the souring of corn for feral hogs. Next, in the heart of the New Mexico desert, a mail carrier's routine day takes a hair-raising turn. Stranded after a tire blowout, without cell service, he embarks on a chilling hike to an elevated spot. But what he encounters on this journey feels like a scene right out of a 1950s horror film. Then, two young boys explore the dense woods near their Western New York home. Amongst the trees, they encounter a mysterious and unseen entity that defies explanation. Little do they know, their eerie day in the woods is only the beginning. Back home, one of the boys becomes the target of a chilling 'Glimmer Man' attack.

    After the break, Cam delves deep into the enigmatic tales of three legendary cryptids that have haunted the imaginations of those brave enough to seek the truth. The Pope Lick Monster, a creature of legend said to be part man, part goat or sheep, lurking beneath the eerie Norfolk Southern Railroad trestle over Floyd's Creek in the Fishersville area near Louisville, Kentucky. The Northfield Pigman, a being that defies explanation. Half man, half pig, the Pigman's existence has been a source of fascination and fear for generations. And, finally, the Houston Rat Man. With a face reminiscent of a rat, strange eyes, and a flaring nose, this bizarre entity has long been a source of terror in the hearts of those who cross its path. Cam takes you deep into the strange case files and eyewitness accounts that surround this enigmatic creature.

    Get ready to embrace the unexplained, as we invite you to venture into the shadows, where the realms of legend and reality blur. Join us as we unravel the stories, sightings, and lore of the Pope Lick Monster, Northfield Pigman, and Houston Rat Man and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives!

  • On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off by talking about the beginning of deer season here in the state of Texas, the state fair, and more. Then, a former postal worker has a strange encounter with what they believe were some Men In Black. Next, a person driving through the foothills of southern California has an experience they can't quite explain. A tall deer-like creature stood up on its hind spindly legs and crossed the road.

    After the break, Kyle brings up some very strange encounters with what has become to be known as the Men In Black phenomenon. The enigmatic and mysterious Men in Black, often abbreviated as MIB, have long captured the imagination of conspiracy theorists, UFO enthusiasts, and pop culture aficionados alike. Emerging from the shadowy depths of urban legends, these elusive figures are commonly portrayed as United States federal government agents, shrouded in black suits, and tasked with one peculiar mission – suppressing evidence related to UFO encounters. However, the intrigue surrounding the Men in Black extends far beyond their supposed government affiliation, delving into the realms of extraterrestrial conspiracy theories and a complex web of secrecy.

    In popular culture, the image of the Men in Black has become iconic, synonymous with enigmatic, otherworldly figures who appear mysteriously after UFO sightings. Yet, it is essential to note that not all Men in Black are necessarily government operatives, nor do they always don the iconic dark suits. The term "Men in Black" has evolved to encompass a broader spectrum of mysterious individuals who intervene in the aftermath of encounters with unidentified flying objects. One of the most tantalizing theories surrounding these shadowy figures suggests that the Men in Black are not merely human agents, but rather, they might be aliens themselves in clever disguises. This notion blurs the lines between conspiracy and science fiction, creating a captivating narrative that challenges conventional understanding of the UFO phenomenon. Some proponents of this theory argue that these extraterrestrial MIB are part of a clandestine effort to keep humanity in the dark about the existence of otherworldly beings and advanced civilizations.

    Within the intricate tapestry of UFO lore, the emergence of the Men in Black paints a multifaceted picture. While some contactees present a rosy and optimistic view of their encounters with UFOs and their occupants, others believe in the existence of sinister forces actively opposing the so-called "Space Brothers" and their benevolent mission. These antagonistic forces, both extraterrestrial and terrestrial, are thought to work together in a covert alliance, intent on obstructing the revelation of the truth regarding UFOs and their potential implications for humanity.
