It's all things movies tonight! Our first Movie Club feature was Freaks (2018) and we chat about the film, the metaphors and some of the technical aspects of this impressive indie flick! Then Chris gives us a Box Office Budget pop quiz. Plus: Interesting news on the virus front locally that gives us pause...

Ron gives the others a pop-quiz on some the more noteworthy cults in American culture after we get caught up on the latest plague updates. Then a fun round of News Quiz! Test your knowledge of the wacky...

Cursed idols, topless wahines, flaming warriors, plastic palm trees and colorful exotic cocktails with 23 ingredients. We take a look at the kookie and beautifully tacky world of Tiki and Polynesian Pop in this week's episode! Then the education continues when Chris gives us a True/False round of Weird Trivia - was Napoleon really short? Does alcohol really kill your brain cells? Who was the first man to pee on the moon? Join us for some much needed fun and learn a thing or two along the way!

EDIT: I claimed in the ep. That it was Trader Vic who was ordering all the Mr. Bali Hais to get the collector mugs, it was actually Beachbum Berry. I had confused two stories in one there.

We tried to avoid another full talk on the bug-o-doom but it felt right to chat about the latest news and extension of our shut in orders here in the Pacific Northwest. Plus a much needed round of Weird Trivia!

It's the perfect time to replay an interview from the Spacepod archives in 2016. Brian Tuohy joins us to talk about his book Disaster Governments. It was spooky then...in light of the current state of  things? It will likely change the way you think about how the world governments handle crises and global emergencies... PLUS: A Mystery Package, Earth Cloaking, Robot Dinosaur, Death Simulator and Brian joins us for News Quiz!

We have a poignant, reflective and  semi-inspiring chat about regret, traveling, anxiety and aging in a free-form discussion. PLUS: Kevin's Bacon (again), A Ghost Tale, A Vagina Brewery and a round of It's Rank! 

Another round of Grim & Pleasant this time we discuss some of the more troubling ways killer have disposed of their victims' bodies and horrific items of medical quackery! More snack food history to balance all that grim. PLUS: VR of the dead, Moth Man and Weird Trivia!

We read and answer your listener feedback and questions including - disasters in sharing the show, embarrassing sex life stuff, Vic Magnogna's case, that art banana, an amazing Jon-Mark theory, strangest thing we have seen in someone else's home and more! It's revealing... Then a fresh round of Weird Trivia! And finally...a strange photographic revelation.

Ron quizzes the others on famous quotes from films, historical figures, literature and pop-culture to see who will walk away with the super sexy crown of The Quotemaster! PLUS: X-ray Records, Pets After We Die and more!

We once again sift through some wacky news stories including: A samurai divorce, prison consultants, a haunted Elsa doll, a Mexican wrassler death, HAARP, Megxit and more! Then Chris gives us a quiz featuring the Best Scifi Action films of all time!
