Night Dangers. Ever since I heard this band a couple years ago, Iâve been hooked. Then Andrew Philp, the main Night Danger-er, sent me a copy of their soon-to-be-released full length record and whooooooo yeah, it was time for an interview. This Bobcast feautures an interview with Andrew about all kinds of stuff - music, mental health, the Midwest âsoundâ, who would win in a fight - Prince or Bob Stinson (thatâs totally not in this episode besides theyâre both dead how fucked do you think I am???) and more! Oh yeah, there are TWO ghost stories in this one as well, one by Andrew, one is a VERY SPECIAL GUEST (Hi Mono!). Music-wise, thereâs a brand new Bobcast theme song by What Me Worry? and three Night Dangers songs - âAll I Needâ, âThis Timeâ and âLet Myself Down Tonightâ.

Canada is well known for hokey, poutine and cold weather. Eh? Yes, I also know Canada for Corner Gas and some of the best punk rock in the world (Anti-Queens, duh!). What about the ghosts and cryptids of our friendly neighbors to the north? Not content with another episode about Waverly or Whaley House, in this one, I turn to Gina and Victoria of Haunted History BC, those Canadian Mavens of Morbid Mayhem, for answers. Weâll talk about the sistersâ history in the paranormal, how they conduct investigations, their mascot, Onyx The Crow and more. The âmoreâ being several stories of Canadian haunted places and cryptids!!! Good stuff, eh? Last âeh?â joke, I promise. Those Pennsylvanian Purveyors of PUNK, Advocaat, generously grace us with the song âGhostâ in this one, too. BOOOO, eh!!! Sorrrry about that.

Weâve covered paranormal investigating and ghosts, haunted places and haunted history, witchcraft, magic and tarot, cryptids, UFOs and now, weâre going to tie ALL of them together. As much as thatâs possible? Hereâs a hint - maybe Bigfoot was the inspiration for Chewbacca? Maybe Bigfoot IS Chewbacca? That would be something, wouldnât it? Well, weâll dive into the ties that bind the paranormal together, plus religion, super heroes, myths, conciousness and the ever-elusive third eye we all might have. All subjects covered in Mikeâs latest paranormal phenomenon of a book, âStranger Than Fictionâ. Which you should read.

Troy Taylor talks of the Mineral Springs Hotel in Alton, Illinois and the guests that might not have ever checked out.

Mike Wiebe of The Riverboat Gamblers and Drakulas. Heâs the tall, good looking one that jumps around and sings in both bands, by the way. Mike sets sail on the WeirdBoat, the Bobcast, to talk about paranormal stuff, his bands and more in this episode. Strange car rides on Santa Fe Baldy in New Mexico, strange lights in the sky in Denton, Texas and a Goatman. And the Goatmanâs Bridge. Creepy, spooky and awesomely atrotious stories, in other words. Plus, a retelling by yours truly of one of the many legends that surround Goatmanâs Bridge in Denton, Texas. I personally would not visit Goatmanâs Bridge. Too scary, especially after I read all about it. Yikes. Music of the episode provided by Drakulas and the Riverboat Gamblers with the songs âDark Blackâ and âDonât Bury Me (Iâm Still Not Dead)â respectively.

UFOs fall under the (very large) umbrella that is âThe Paranormalâ. There, I said it. I guess itâs not really a controversial opinion, itâs just that many people donât think of UFOs from a âparanormalâ point of view. Why not? Paranormal is simply defined as âsomething science canât explainâ and if that ainât THE definition of UFO, I donât know what is. Regardless, this Bobcast episode is another dive into the realm of the paranormal, this time all about UFOs. Aaron Gulyas, author, educator, historian and host of The Saucer Life podcast joins us to talk a little about conspiricies, UFO lore and history and creepy black Cadillacs. Music of the episode is provided by those Canadian Creeps, The Band From Planet X. Brought to you by Good Life Digestive Health.

Mike Damante won me over a while ago with his âPunk Rock and UFOsâ series of books, a mind-blowing series on paranormal weirdness and UFO related wildness. Mikeâs latest book, âHey Suburbiaâ also won me over - but in a different way. âHey Suburbiaâ talks about punk rock, pop-punk and emo of the 1990âs and early 2000âs, mostly. Thereâs nostalgia, to be sure. But thereâs also quite a bit about the course and trajectory of punk rock from those golden days up to the present day. Let me tell you, I listened to a bunch of Jimmy Eat World after I read the book, I cannot tell a lie. But I also looked at the future of punk rock in a different light after reading the book. With more hope, I should say. Well! Mike joins the Bobcast to talk all things PUNK in this episode, from how it all started for him, to answering that age old question - were big punk bands of the 90âs (that were successful) sell-outâs? Listen and find out! Also, Michael Crusty stops by with a brand new edition of Crustyâs Corner to talk with Nick from Canadian Rock Wrestling and play a PUNK song by Debt Cemetery. Lastly, War On Women appear in the episode with the song âWhite Liesâ, which was hand picked by Mr. Damante just for this episode! Letâs get PUNK with Mike Damante and freinds!

Welcome to the first edition of a new series of Bobcast episodes, simply titled âHaunted Harmoniesâ. With these episodes, youâll hear a little bit about the history and haunts of a particular paranormally active location, which is located somewhere in this great big haunted world of ours. Along with the history and haunts, letâs throw a band interview - a short one - into these episodes, because the Bobcast is PUNK. The rule is, the band has to be from the same town or area as the featured haunted location. In this case, weâre talking about San Diego, Californiaâs Villa Montezuma, with the band of the episode being Come Closer. San Diego has a TON of haunted places, but Iâm telling you, Villa Montezuma is the King/Queen of the Haunt Heap. Come Closer is likewise the cream of the crop in a sea of amazing bands from San Diego. The tales of strangeness from Villa Montezuma, the interview with J from Come Closer, a song titled âGet It Wrongâ by Come Closer, this episode has it ALL. Brought to you by Good Life Digestive Health.

The band Spider, from the Los Angeles area, has pulled something off that not many bands have truly been able to do. Theyâve taken the sound and the fury of 1980âs LA punk and hardcore and turned it into their own thing. A magical and perfectly punk thing, at that. Donât think Iâm saying the band lives in the past! No, Spider does their own thing, while hearkening back to the glory days of LA punk and hardcore. Hector Martinez, the singer/vocalist of Spider stops by The Bobcast to talk about the band, punk rock stuff, ghosts, UFOs and more! Two songs by Spider are in this episode, âEnergy Gone Wrongâ and âThe Reeperbahnâ. Presented by Good Life Digestive Health.

Pleasant Gehman returns to The Bobcast with a brand new episode and more stories, more magical mayhem that is the life of the incredible person, the Princess Of Hollywood, Pleasant Gehman! This time around weâre talking about Pleasantâs writing and dancing careers. Pleasantâs been doing both most of her whole life, to great effect. Though she has written mostly non-fiction stories of her life through the years, sheâs the first person Iâve heard of that a publisher told âwe canât run this as fiction, itâs too crazy!!!â. Thatâs the life of Pleasant Gehman in a nutshell. Music of the episode by Screaminâ Sirens and those songs are âI Heard About Youâ and âNine Times To Liveâ off of 1987âs âVoodooâ. Oh! The song âVoodooâ is also soothingly serenading you in the intro and outro background of the episode.
