Hysteria 51

Look, up in the sky… It’s a Bird… It’s a plane… It’s a 13,000-year-old alien probe sent to keep an eye on us! Those that believe the Black Knight Satellite is real say it is just that, and the story has all the best players- Nikola Tesla, Astronauts, Reptilians, Ancient Aztecs, the USSR, Jacques Vallée, even the Illuminati! Does it exist? Where did it come from? Did Conspiracy Bot wipe out Mars? Those are the questions we tackle this week with the help of Tach Van Sickle of A Very Brady Podcast. All that and more from the podcast that doesn’t have any satellites in orbit, we keep our robots on the ground where they can do the most damage – Hysteria 51Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant – Raymond Walden IVVideosThe Mystery of The Black Knight Satellite – https://bit.ly/2BFS9RrCryptid Profile – Black Knight Satellite – https://bit.ly/31LTqkDWebsitesWikipedia – https://bit.ly/2nZRTskWikipedia – https://bit.ly/2JlbA6vSpace.com – https://bit.ly/32TNt6JGaia – https://bit.ly/2p0K3jRDaily Galaxy – https://bit.ly/2WkCvERThe Black Vault – https://bit.ly/32MPfGoGateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth – https://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/Skeptoid – https://bit.ly/2BHAPf5Astronotes – https://bit.ly/345QrVRMysterious Universe – https://bit.ly/2MNCshF

Never judge a book by is cover, judge it by the bumps on its head! Or so Franz Joseph Gall would have had you believe when he developed Phrenology in the 1700’s. That’s right, it’s pseudoscience week this week as Kevin Crispin stops by to help us take a peek at Phrenology and how it was used for racism, sexism, classism, and all sorts of other crappy isms. Plus, Cbot claims he collects skulls (he might), Kevin loses sleep over a mole (those boarders do look irregular), and Brent claims men at work is the greatest movie of all time (it is). All that and more on the podcast that asks, if you can judge people by the bumps on their head, how do you judge robots… – Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant – Raymond Walden IVBooksHow to Read Character: Hand-Book of Physiology, Phrenology and Physiognomy | Lorenzo Niles FowlerMaterials of the Mind: Phrenology, Race, and the Global History of Science | James PoskettVideosMen at Work – https://imdb.to/2IGYsrWDjango Unchained – https://imdb.to/2OANSmlPhrenology – https://bit.ly/2OGEOjAWebsitesWikipedia – https://bit.ly/1mI70BtWikipedia – https://bit.ly/2MCNS8JScientific Racism – https://bit.ly/2cFb2WmEncyclopedia Britannica – https://bit.ly/2TNMFitVictorian Web – https://bit.ly/2wQc1QhPhrenology – https://www.phrenology.orgCultura Colectiva – https://bit.ly/2M4Sxip

The death of your child has to be one of the worst things a parent ever has to face. Now imagine everyone blames you, you go to prison for it, and the event becomes the butt of a world wide joke. FUN! Yeah, probably not, but that is what happened with the death of Azaria Chamberlain, the story that created the phrase “Dingo Ate My Baby”. This week Brent heads back down under to try and get to the bottom of this story with the help of Mr. David Flora of Blurry Photos (they probably fail), Cbot tries his hand at poetry (he definitely fails), and Vegemite makes an appearance (it fails David’s taste test). All that and more on the podcast that wonders if Dingo’s will eat people, will they also eat irreverent and boorish robots – Hysteria 51Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant – Raymond Walden IVBooksDingo Baby Case: Death of Azaria Chamberlain | Richard ShearsHeart of Stone: My Quest for Justice for Azaria | Michael ChamberlainVideosDingo meets a Coyote! – https://bit.ly/2PvONXhA Cry in the Dark – https://imdb.to/2mh2Dm5Coroner rules dingo killed Azaria Chamberlain – https://ab.co/2m91JHZABC News Australia – https://bit.ly/2mat78tWebsitesIMDB – https://www.imdb.com/list/ls022512430/Wikipedia – https://bit.ly/1VCeRiWikipedia – https://bit.ly/1qwH90pInfogalactic – https://bit.ly/2kL06QnThe Guardian – https://bit.ly/2jx8dhpNY Times – https://nyti.ms/2lL9tjjAdventist Today – https://bit.ly/2masWtP

This week Brent takes over host duties as John is on assignment in… Delaware… But have no fear, David Flora of Blurry Photos Podcast steps up and channels his inner Goforth. Plus CBot throws his hat into the hosting ring(don’t worry, we won’t let him), David talks about his Hypnotic Regressions sessions (He may or may not have been Joan of arc in a former life), and we sit down with the creators of the Documentary Extraordinary: The Seeding to talk Alien-Human Hybrids!! All that and more on the podcast that asks if someone is a human / alien hybrid – aren’t they technically a GMO? – Hysteria 51Extraordinary: The SeedingAbductions. Reproduction experiments. Memories of seeing children off-planet. The idea of humans participating in an alien hybrid program sounds absurd until you talk to people who have experienced it. Thousands of women and men around the world have had reproductive experiments carried out against their will. The most harrowing? Unexplained pregnancies that terminate without explanation. In many cases, the memories of what happened remain suppressed and fragmented, leaving experiencers confused, depressed and with a profound sense of loss. In others, the memories are visceral and emotionally disturbing. Thanks to increased public acceptance and regression therapy, more and more people are coming forward with stories of abductions and strange fertilization procedures that occur during their frightening experiences. Are aliens involved in a complex hybridization project where human females are used as vessels to carry hybrid fetuses and human males have their sperm harvested until they’re ready to be transferred “elsewhere?” And if so, to what end? “Extraordinary: The Seeding” is a riveting documentary that tells these stories through one-on-one interviews with abductees-brave individuals willing to share intensely personal and emotional stories with the rest of the world. Through analysis with global ufology experts, the film also explores hybridization, why it’s happening and what the impact on humanity is and will be. The information presented is intended to educate, entertain and encourage audiences to ask one simple question: What if this is all true?

We’ve all been there – you’re on the job and something goes wonky with your welding gun. Next thing you know you’re telepathic and can not only read the thoughts of your co-workers, but also an evil race of robots living underground. You know, that old yarn. Well, it also happened to Richard Shaver and afterwards he sent his account of living with them to a magazine. When the magazine’s publisher received it, he did the logical thing: re-wrote it to be 3 times longer and published it. And if this sounds wild, that’s just the tip of the stalactite. This week we grab our ray guns and pick axes as we go in search of The Shaver Mystery. Plus, Conspiracy Bot thinks you can podcast through a ham radio (actually might improve this show), he also thinks he smells burnt toast (weird for a robot with a toaster for a head), and the fellas turn a fake language into a treatment for irregularity (I’d love to tell you this makes more sense when you listen, but I don’t want to lie). All of that and more on the podcast that has solved the greatest of shaver mystery of all – yes, your significant other did, in fact, use your razor – Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant – Raymond Walden IVBooksThe Secret world | Ray PalmerRichard Shaver: Reality of the Inner Earth |Richard Shaver/Tim R.

We’re back in the cryptid cornucopia this week with Mongolian Death Worms. We know, we know….they sound cuddly, but we wouldn’t suggest snuggling up. These enormous worm-like creatures allegedly live in the Gobi desert and snack on locals for sport. They spit acid, shoot electricity, and will kill a man by a mere touch (yeah, we’re surprised it isn’t Australian too). But are Mongolian Death Worms the surreptitious stalkers from legend, or are they merely a campfire tale passed down through generations? We grab the spice, call Kevin Bacon, and escape the Great Pit of Carkoon this week as we investigate. Plus, Kyle seems to be MIA (at least its quieter), Conspiracy Bot predicts Brent’s demise (is it a prediction if you cause it?), and the fellas discuss the weird stuff they did with bugs as a kid (magnifying glasses anyone?). All of that and more on the podcast that wonders, if you cut a Mongolian Death Worm in half do you get two Mongolian Death Worms?

Elementary school is such a fun experience. How could you not love the art projects, lunchtime with your friends, recess, UFO sightings…. Well, that last one is specific to a small suburb of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia (also colloquially known as Westall). The Westall UFO Incident took place on April 6th, 1966, when over 200 students and faculty in the area reportedly observed multiple UFOs defying physics and toying with other, more terrestrial aircraft. This was followed by the appearance of a mysterious military type unit with designs on covering the whole thing up. What really happened in Westall? Who were the mysterious men telling locals to keep their mouths shut? Do windsocks react with swamp-gas? We head back to the Land Down Under this week and investigate. Plus, British Announcer Guy is back and has a bone to pick with Conspiracy Bot (this might not end well), the fellas try to calm things down with a negotiation of sorts (also not likely to end well), and even Kyle gets involved (definitely will not end well). All of that and more on the podcast that knows for a fact there wasn’t a UFO seen over Australia…because Australia isn’t real – Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant – Raymond Walden IVBooks/NewspapersThe Westall UFO Incident | Justin TullySchoolyard UFO Encounters: 100 True Accounts | Preston DennettDandenong JournalVideosNational Geographic – https://bit.ly/33HYiJHWestall ’66: A Suburban UFO MysteryAUSTRALIA DOES NOT EXIST | ragreynolds – https://youtu.be/YtPut7usFbIWebsitesWikipedia – https://bit.ly/2JwJyG8Pedestrian – https://bit.ly/2Z26i9yPedestrian – https://bit.ly/30h52MlFox News – https://fxn.ws/2HdMnd2FB Group – https://bit.ly/31SPkYvProject 1947 – https://bit.ly/2HcTIJGDavid Halperin UFO Journal – https://bit.ly/31PWwViMeanijn – https://bit.ly/2TMywzsUFOs – Documenting The Evidence – https://bit.ly/2lYfGbEEducating Humanity – https://bit.ly/2m0tfHzJ.P.

If the U.S. were to have a facility to exclusively study the deadliest animal pathogens in the world. Where do you think they would put it? Some remote outpost in the middle of nowhere? Thousands of feet underground? An island just off the coast of New York? If you took door number 3 you’re our winner…of foot and mouth disease! Plum Island, or the Plum Island Animal Disease Center is just off the coast of Long Island and studies some of the worst known animal diseases out there. But is that all they study? Is it really as safe as they say? Are there secret Nazi scientists are working on some of the most gruesome and devilish bio-weapons right under our noses? We slip into our bio-hazard suits and research it this week. Plus, the robots are on everyone’s last nerve (cheese muffins), a certain British announcer makes his way to the Lower Fourth (no, we still don’t really understand him), and Brent gives everyone a nautical lesson on WW2 era submarines (let’s just say you shouldn’t site him as a research source). All of that and more on the podcast that’s never studied dangerous diseases up close…that’s what we have the robot for - Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant - Raymond Walden IVBooksLab 257| Michael C.

The majesty of the Great Pyramid of Giza is unrivaled. Its masterful design, its mind-boggling construction, the fact that’s its just an ancient, enormous water pump in the middle of the desert. Ummm, well, that’s the opinion of more than one expert and that of our guest this week – Steve Meyers. Steven has been studying the Great Pyramid for decades and contends its design is that of a functioning water pump to quench the thirst of the ancient Egyptians (or whoever) that built them. So, this week we grab our advanced degrees in hydraulic engineering and go in search of Giza. Plus, a reference to the Large Hadron Collider and its similarity to a certain calendar makes its way back to the show (it was Conspiracy Bot ), the fellas discuss their favorite “out of place artifact” (it’s not Conspiracy Bot), and both robots seem a little glitchier than normal (mostly just Conspiracy Bot). All of that and more on the podcast that believes all ancient monuments have a modern day use – they look like calendars - Hysteria 51.Special thanks to this week’s research sources:Research Assistant - Raymond Walden IVBooksThe Great Pyramid Prosperity Machine: Why the Great Pyramid was Built! | Steven MyersLost Technologies of the Great Pyramid: How the Great Pyramid was built! | Steven MyersThe Giza Power Plant : Technologies of Ancient Egypt Paperback | Christopher DunnPharaoh's Pump | Edward J KunkelVideosThe Great Pyramid Water PumpBuilding the Great Pyramid using Water Locks and Barges360° Travel inside the Great Pyramid of Giza – BBC - https://bit.ly/2YvIg6IDecoding The Great Pyramid - https://bit.ly/2YGnQTOWebsitesThe Pump - https://bit.ly/2Kr7vNSkeptic’s Dictionary - https://bit.ly/2MGwNdCWorld Pyramids - https://bit.ly/2T54zKsWikipedia - https://bit.ly/1fccReoNew Dawn - https://bit.ly/2KtsS0N
