In this special hybrid episode, we’re combining the best of both worlds—The Inbox of Oddities and Freak Family Favorites!

This episode kicks off with some of your wildest listener emails—because who doesn’t love a good strange coincidence or paranormal encounter? You shared your weirdest moments with us, and we’re ready to unpack them, from haunted keychains to mysterious disappearances. After that, we’re turning up the heat with one of our favorite freaky tales: spontaneous human combustion! It’s a topic that will make you question your every move (and maybe even reach for the fire extinguisher).

Then, we take a look at the bizarre behaviors we still engage in today, thanks to evolution. From irrational fears to strange habits, we explore how our ancient instincts might be responsible for some of the odd things we do in the modern world. It’s an episode packed with listener contributions, creepy science, and a whole lot of unexpected oddities.

Tune in for this one-of-a-kind mashup of the weird and the wonderful.
