TW: Murder, racism, war, mention of rape
Welcome back, Weirdos and WATCH OUT FOR VOORHEES!! it's another Friday the 13th episode!
Every time we get together we chat about something WEIRD and this week is chock-full of crazy. Lauren starts us off by reminding us the reason for the season-- the season of course being Friday the 13th and the reason being FEAR. Lauren breaks down some of the WORST most horrible horrific things to have ever occurred on Friday the 13th - just to get our blood flowing. Then Ashley comes in with a WHOPPER of a CONSPIRACY THEORY!! Did you know that some people believe that the reason the United States invaded Iraq in 2003 was because they were attempting to reverse engineer alien technology and they knew that there was information hidden in ancient sumerian texts & artifacts that held the secrets they were missing? SOUNDS NUTS but hear us out-- there might be something to this one. Then Lauren finishes off strong with a WHERE IN THE WORLD IS KEEP IT WEIRD and a trip to the Wisconsin Dells. What is a dell you ask? Nobody knows. We talk about water parks, haunted saloons, creepy TCBYs, clown museums, strange archeological finds and more. Long live the dells! Check out some LINKS below if you want to do some reading on today's strange topics! Thank you SO MUCH for tuning in to another episode of our show.

TW: Mental Health Disorders (schizophrenia, depression, Cotard's syndrome) Drug Use, Death
It's a nice day for a... Black Friday! It's a nice day to... START AGAIIIIIN!
Hi Weirdos!! Happy BLACK Friday we hope you're ready to do the Brain Worm Squirm as we dive into this week's WEIRD topics and celebrate all things DARK! Lauren starts us off with a banger as she launches into JEEPERS CREEPERS (I hate it so much) and teaches us about Cotard's Syndrome. It's nickname however is maybe more appropriate: "Walking Corpse Syndrome." Cotard's is a very rare mental disorder wherein the patient believes either they ARE dead (or dying,) they no longer exist, or sometimes simply that they are losing blood, internal organs or body parts. Its... rough. But no worries, Ashley is here to lighten the mood with an ANCIENT ARTIFACTS (sponsored by Addie Rife) that is all about AYAHUASCA! How the drug is made, what it is doing to your brain when ingested and even how use of the drug could solve some of mankind's OLDEST mysteries. From deep in the Amazon to the furthest reaches of space and time-- this is one TRIP you don't want to miss. Get it?

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 ShĆnen 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!!

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.

Itâs high time that we compile some of these bad boys so this weekâs episode is a celebration of creeping each other out. A fiesta of freaking our beans. A jamboree of just about pissing our pants.
FIFTEEN horror stories from ten different past episodes.
Season 2: YOU CANâT HANDLE THE TOOTH - Sugar, Spice & Bathroom Ghosts Twice - If You Got It, Haunt It
Season 3: Hot Eats, Cool Treats, Haunted by a Child - Clap If you Believe in the Barn!

Season 5: Are You Happy Now? - A Streetcar Named WTF
As usual, these episodes contain sound effects and music that some listeners may find jarring. There will NOT be a sound effect/music free version of this on the patreon this time around because I donât even think I have the original files anymore, haha. So I apologize.

TW: drugs, drugging people without their knowledge, sex work, assassination attempts, references to violent video games, rape and pornography
It's for your own good, weirdos.
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.

TW: untimely death, hauntings, terrifying cryptids & blood
Well well well, weirdos, we meet again!
Welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD, the podcast for all things strange and unusual, nautical and nasty, mysterious and monstrous and everything in between. Every episode we talk about something WEIRD and this episode is no exception. Ashley starts us off with a PARANORMAL PARADISE that features a leftover LISTENER GHOST STORY from last week about a man who believes he saw the exact staircase his mother died on... several years before it occurred.
Then Lauren asks WHERE IN THE WORLD(Is Keep It Weird Going?) as we astral travel to DOOR COUNTY Wisconsin which is apparently chock full of haunted lighthouses. Ashley grabs the binoculars for a MONSTER WATCH where the MOTHBOYS PODCAST leads us to a very strange cryptid from West Virginia (where else, amirite?) called THE VEGGIE MAN And Lauren finishes off strong with another CURSED CROONERS (& Spooky Songs) as we discuss the curse of the 9th symphony! Which 9th symphony you ask? ALL OF THEM. Check out the links below if you want to do some further reading on today's topics.

Hi Weirdos! Or should I say⊠high weirdos?
Welcome to a very special episode of KEEP IT WEIRDâ 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 itâs 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 âgardeningâ 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 cricketâs chirp, which famous horror director had to say goodbye to his bellybutton, an ancient city full of skyscrapers that you didnât know existed, where the sound comes from when we snap our fingers, and even alligators who can gallop faster than Gunpowder (thatâs Ichabod Craneâs horse⊠obviously)
So buckle your seatbelts, maybe take a toke or two yourself, relax, melt into the couch, WAIT too much melting. Donât 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.

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.

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 www.patreon.com/keepitweirdpodcast! 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 www.youtube.com/keepitweirdpodcast 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

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!

TW: foul language, religion, apocalyptic imagery
I'm a loner, Weirdo. A rebel. And you are entering KEEP IT WEIRD: the podcast for all things strange & unusual. We get together every other week and chat about SOMETHING WEIRD and of course this week is no exception.
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.

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 www.patreon.com/keepitweirdpodcast & 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."
