Well, dang. We went and got all busy again, and missed a few chances for a quick pint and a chinwag. But it's new year, new beer at Hey Brew HQ with another Elliot spooky special! This time around we're talking fears, phobias, and general heebie-jeebies. Make sure to keep your wits about you!

Once again, it's been a minute between drinks, but here we are again with another Hey Brew special. Would you like to know a little more about the Pumpkin Spiced Latte? How about fake banana flavour? Well, have we got the episode of Hey Brew for you! It's this one. Listen to this one.

If you see these dogs in your front yard, please call me I have lost them. Or not dogs, but lions and other zoo animals. Elliot has for us a collection of tales of daring zoo escapes. Oh, and before you ask: yes, I mean the animals are the ones doing the escaping.

It's been a good while between drinks, but never fear Hey Brew fans - we're back! It's Mike in the driver's seat this time, and we're talking deserts. No, not sweet treats. We're going over big, empty, sandy, deserts. More specifically, Australia's Nullabor Plain, and the strange goings-on it's seen over the years.

Get ready for some extremely localised Hey Brew content! Elliot is fresh back from a trip to his homeland, and has brought back some beery treats to share. This time, the boys split a bottle of beer based on a castle in Elliot's home town, while Elliot regales us with the story of the English Civil War. See what I mean?

Well folks, it finally happened. In our excitement to record two episodes in a single recording session, we independently wrote stories about the same thing. Apologies for the delay on this one, because Elliot also went out of the country, so we couldn't make that up. Anyway! Here's Mike's (and only Mike's) episode about one D. B. Cooper, a man who stole a plane and seemingly got away with it? Who knows!
Also, I promise you this episode was recorded before Netflix et al. went and put out documentaries about it!

We love weirdos doing death-defying stunts, and this episode is one all about a particular breed of those weirdos: people who do stunts involving the Niagara Falls. There are tales aplenty of people who did mad things and didn't perish, some who did, and some stories that are just plain silly. Best stick to the rivers and lakes that you're used to.

After a slightly long, largely unintended break, we're back in full swing with another dose of Hey Brew yarn-spinning goodness! Freshly recharged from a beer festival, this time Mike is talking about the story of John DeLorean and his journey through the automotive industry.

It's no secret: we've gone and made a mess of this planet we call home. This episode, Elliot tells us a tale of those who search for planets like it, in the hopes of finding a new home that we can escape to, before wrecking that one too I guess. Climate anxiety, ahoy!

Surprise surprise, it's Hey Brew doing a story about some weird folks with weird obsessions. This time around, it's Mike telling the story of Heaven's Gate, the new religious group (read: cult) that gained notoriety in the late 90s for, well, some pretty grim stuff. We handle it in the traditional Hey Brew style, which is to say, we drink a mad beer while we talk about it and try to distract ourselves from the story.

Thought we couldn't do an episode that's more on brand for us as people? Elliot's here to say hold my beer. It's a rather good yoghurt parfait sour from a brewery new to us, and paired with that delightful drop is the near-diabolical tale of Daikatana, a particularly bad video game from one of the creators of DOOM.

If you thought the 18% ABV Rhino was a contentious beer, wait until you see what we've got this time. It's a spooky, green beer, and to help us get through it, we've got a little dive into the world of ghost hunting and the technology utilised by those that probe the paranormal.

Here's a story of some stuff that didn't really happen, followed by some stuff that did happen but we kinda wish it hadn't. Elliot's here with some stories of hoaxes, but a rather specific one primarily that shines a light on some dark spots in the psychiatric care industry. Yeah, look, it's a bit of a dark one. Don't worry though - we bring it back around towards the end in a very Hey Brew kinda way.

You already know that we're into cars, having featured stories about them in a few Hey Brews before. This time, we've got a bit of a tour through the history of car safety. We get surprised at how old some safety features are, pleasantly shocked at how often Volvo shows up in this list, and disgusted with the dark past of crash test dummies. Combine this with a banger of a sour from Adroit Theory, and it's an episode sure to take pole position!

Here is our first episode actually recorded in 2022. Things are fine and not at all bad. We're gonna fact check that however, by checking in with the news. Elliot is talking all about Weekly World News, self-proclaimedly "The World's Only Reliable News". There are some kinda weird tales in here, and surprise surprise, they're right up our alley.

We finally made it. Episode 69. We've got a real meal of an episode here, with the story of people who think they're vampires. In the spirit of full disclosure, we recorded this one right after recording the previous episode, so we're coming in a little hotter than usual. For more than one reason.

It's the last episode of Hey Brew for the year 2021. We're going out in our traditional style: talking about something a little bit spooky. Elliot tells us about some yōkai, which are supernatural beings from Japanese folklore. Find out about the haunted lantern, tea kettle, futon, and more!

Numbers have given us so much, but sometimes, they can hide some allegedly spooky things. Elliot has brought to the table the story of number stations: a seemingly harmless, often creepy method of communication that has been around for sometime, and despite technological advancements is likely to continue for some time yet.

Hello comrades! This time around, Mike has a story that you might have heard about before, with the apparent assassination of Georgi Markov back in 1978, killed with a sneaky little poison. Some poisons only take one drop to kill, hence this week's pairing with a rather delicious beer from One Drop Brewing Co.
