Hysteria 51

Alright, we eat so sketchy stuff on here, so time for a treat for ourselves. It's not insects or the feet of fowl for once. No, we head back down south this CAFEteria 51 to try some of the sweets our neighbors to the south have to offer for Mexican Sweets Week.

Going to the doctor is such a pain. The forms, the wait, the doctor needing to get into a trance-like state to intuit your cure, the lack of a doctor's license…you know, everyday stuff. Well, it actually was with anyone who went to see Edgar Cayce in the early 20th century. This Sunday School teacher turned clairvoyant claimed to give over 14,000 readings throughout his career and many of them were recorded! He also is said to have had abilities in astral projection, prophesying, mediumship, and seeing auras (to name a few). Like we said…just like going to your primary care physician. Did Cayce actually have supernatural abilities? Did his supposed cures actually make anyone better? Did he actually just use a magic 8-ball? We try to answer those and a whole lot more this week as we go in search of Edgar Cayce. Plus, you-know-who is back for the second week in a row (Pecker). Also, more inane Simpson's references get dropped(more Pecker). And yet again, we discuss doing very normal, human things (seeing a pattern here?) Break out your crystals and align your chakras because we have all of that and more on the podcast that doesn't always ban guests from coming back, but when we do we rarely stick to it - Hysteria 51.

I mean, the title is pretty self-explanatory, but I'm guessing since you're still reading - that you need a bit more. Well, the short version is the government replaced every living bird in the US with a drone. And they're ALL spying on us. What do you do if you have a pet bird? If they're all fake, what exactly is an egg? And, perhaps, most importantly - is the apostrophe in "Birds Aren't Real" necessary? We investigate this avian enigma this week. Plus, a certain someone makes his triumphant return to the show (and is subsequently never welcome back), the fellas are recording in the same room for the first time in 18+ months (you'd think it'd be better), and inane Simpsons references are back (see above). All of that and more on the podcast that isn’t sure if birds are real, but idiot robots? We’ve got that covered - Hysteria 51.

Ugh… Aliens, am I right? Always wanting to get one up on you in deals, freeze your ions with their microwave pens, and get all expense paid gambling trips via the CIA.  It’s a tale as old as time, or at least Charles Hall says it is.  This week we tackle his alleged time as a military liaison with the Tall Whites, a species from 105 light years away who want to use the Earth for their very own intergalactic truck stop.  Art and Andy from Mr. Bunker’s Conspiracy Time Podcast stop by to try and help Brent break down the space gamblers and wrangle the robots while Gofo is out for the week.  Plus, Rob Kristoffersen lets us know his thoughts on ole Chucky Hall, Chuck Yeager gets all tingly, and CBot reminds us what happens when white folks come from far away just wanting some land.  All that and more on the podcast that doesn’t always cover alien races, but when we do, they love to gamble in Vegas - Hysteria 51

Sometimes it feels like technology is everywhere in our lives. Like it's omnipresent and the only way we'll truly escape it is when we cash in our chips and head to the big casino in the sky (shameless Jimmy Eat World reference). But what if that isn't true...what if we're still techies in the great beyond? In November of 2011 a man by the name of Jack Froese sent a few emails to friends and loved ones. The catch? Jack had been dead for 6 months. Did he really send them? Could they have been sent before his death? What's the download speed in Heaven? This week we try to hack the internet of the afterlife as we explore The Jack Froese Emails. Plus, Conspiracy Bot makes the case that he's a superhero (he isn't). Kyle tried to be helpful (he isn't). And Brent has a realization that he needs to listen to John more (he isn't). All of that and more on the podcast that gets 100’s of emails every day, and only a handful are from dead people – Hysteria 51.

While "The Space Pen Club" might sound like a 90's Ska band, the subject in question is actually a new UFOlogy book by Martin Keller. Martin joins the fellas to talk about his new book, his take on the recent UFO hubbub, and even his years as a publicist for the infamous Dr. Steven Greer. Plus, Kyle is offering "verbal hugs" (I'd be scared), C-Bot is offering to find dead bodies (less frightening) and a listener from Austria leaves a VM (that bet's settled...Austria IS real). All of that and more on the podcast that’s never owned a space pen, but did have this pen growing up that had a picture of a girl and when you twisted...never mind...this is Hysteria 51.

It's Mad Blurry Hysteria time once again as we dive head first into the pool with Guinness Book of World Records for the longest time to hold your breath (It Is Crazy!). Then it’s DNA time – from the air… (nothing to worry about there). And finally, George Knapp brings out more UAP photos for us to tackle.

Boy gets Doll. Boy names Doll after himself. Boy is forced by Doll to go by his middle name for the rest of his life. Boy is terrorized by Doll nightly until it is locked in the attic. Rinse and repeat. We know what you're thinking, That old chestnut... This week Brent travels back to 1904 when Robert Gene Otto received the cursed inspiration for the movie Chucky and countless other scary stories.  Not one to haunted doll shop alone, he is joined by Bobby and Bobby (that's a twofer of Bobs to talk a bout a doll named Bob if you are playing along at home) from The Inhuman Experience to tackle all things Robert The Doll. Is it really haunted? (Maybe) Can it still curse you? (Some say so) And, is the real scary part that it is kept in Florida? (Duh) All that on more on the podcast that has never owned a haunted doll, but we have a couple robots that are suspect - Hysteria 51

New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry joins the fellas this week to talk about his newest book, Relentless - the latest installment in the popular Joe Ledger thriller series. The chat goes deep into the Ledger series (John is a nerd), touches on Maberry’s time as a martial artist (did we mention he’s an 8th degree black belt?), and we hear about a story he wrote that was too over-the-top for the Punisher comic he wrote it for (is such a thing even possible?). All of that and more on the podcast that doesn’t always interview authors, but when we do they’ve generally written about zombies – Hysteria 51.
