Unfortunately, there is no new episode of Freak of the Week. Due to the need to shelter in place during the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been unable to record new episodes. Once we are able to, we will immediately commence the production of the show. But we wanted to give you something to listen to this week. Last August, Freak of the Week producer Nick Mataragas was lucky enough to take part in a Paranormal Podcasting Panel at Wizard World Chicago. So we thought we would pull back the curtain a little, and share the audio from the panel. Be ready for some behind the scenes insight.

Dr. Hickney is sheltering in place in the basement during the Coronavirus pandemic. So there was zero chance of having a guest this week. Instead, he is answering a bunch of voicemails that listeners have sent in this year. And boy are there some doozies. Be prepared to learn about, swimming, squat thrusts, hot yoga, aliens, squid, princes, nipple shields, bridge trolls, kombucha, internet zombies, vampires, and much much more.

Hidden from the public is a secret underground music club. A club that has entrances at many locations, including Family Videos. This club is legendary, iconic, and not full-on Punk. That club is CBDBs.

This week we have a very special guest. There is one cryptid more famous than any other cryptid on Earth. He has had a movie starring John Lithgow all about him. He has had numerous blurry photos taken of him. He has even had a series of beef jerky commercials about him. You know. Sasquatch. This week we talk to his sister. Sisquatch.

David and Elizabeth decided to take a break, so instead of Freak of the Week, you get one of their favorite shows from across the pond. Enjoy the soothing tones of John Cavendish as he explores the unknown, and ultimately decides that it is all fake.

There is a hidden underwater city at the southern tip of Florida. A place full of culture, basketball, diversity, and sandwiches. That city, Miami. This week the mayor of Miami joins us to discuss this submersed metropolis.

We have an interesting guest this week. Petit Morty, a being who can help anyone with their bedroom issues. Also, we find out a little more about Elizabeth than David would like.

Elizabeth is gone this week, so David brought in the hosts of the Ghostly Podcast to point-counterpoint a very serious subject. The ghost of Dave Coulier, former television star turned spectre. Revelations abound in this episode, and Doctor Hickney makes a startling discovery.

Our poor guest this week is suffering from a little post-traumatic stress. Apparently, he has spent too much time on Murder Storm Island. A place where you get killed over and over again, and apparently there are no pharmacies.

Our annual pilgrimage to C2E2 in Chicago led to some surprising moments. David interviewed some of the strangest creatures on our planet and others, and then had the great luck of recording an actual episode about feline warriors, live from the floor at Podcast Central. We dig into who these mysterious cat creatures that live in the Amazon rainforest are and what is going on with their magnetic leader and his weird sword. And why he has hos. Find out in this brand new episode of Freak of the Week.
