Welcome back, weirdos! This week is the first dip into a HUGE topic we've been dying to talk about - Area 51! What starts as a general overview of the highly classified government site eventually becomes a discussion about an important player in UFO culture...a man named Bob Lazar. We also get art history totally wrong, make the Lazar / Major Lazer connection, and lots of UFO stuff!

Welcome back, weirdos! This week the Weird Boys step into mostly uncharted territory: we actually revisit a topic! That's right, this is Richard Hoagland, Part Two! This time Nile explains more of Hoagland's interstellar theories, such as the secret to one of Mars's moons, Phobos. We also discuss his, uh, "valuable" stamp collection and the Hoagland free energy theory! We may have groundbreaking stamp investment info in this episode, folks...check it out.

Welcome back to It Gets Weird! This week Kyle tells Nile and Jules all about the declassified US government operation known as "Stargate Project." This one's for fans of MKULTRA and The Men Who Stare At Goats. In fact, both the book and film about Goat-Staring Men are loosely based off of Stargate Project! What exactly is Stargate Project? A combination of spoon-bending, extrasensory powers, and remote viewing. Take a listen to find out more...

Welcome back, weirdos! This week the boys try to talk about the moon but end up on Mars. Yep, that's right, we're back on the red planet with returning friend of the show Garrett to discuss Richard Hoagland, a conspiracy theorist who specializes in extraterrestrial theorizing. Hoagland not only is most famous for his belief that the Face of Mars is part of a Martian city, but also for his HOGwild theme park full of live pigs runnin' wild! All this and much, much more on this episode.

Greetings, earthlings! On this episode of It Gets Weird, Kyle introduces Nile to Black Boomerang UFO sightings of Poughkeepsie, New York. This is the story of one Greg Boone, an author who worked for the local newspaper. Between Greg and his anonymous photographer accomplice, they believed they had the UFO story of the century...until the cover-up of the century stamped out their dreams. We also discuss hand bells. Extensively.

Welcome back to It Gets Weird! This week, Nile tells Kyle about one of the most infamous exorcism cases of all time: the exorcism of Anneliese Michel. Nile tells Kyle all about the devils inside of poor Anneliese, one of whom may or may not have been Hitler. Yes, the Adolf Hitler. An admittedly upsetting case, we still try to find the funnies in the midst of contemplating demon-possessed violence. Was this a case of true demonic possession, or does the Catholic Church have a lot to answer for?

Hey there friends! This week Kyle mentally breaks Nile trying to explain a really zany conspiracy theory about a disease called toxoplasmosis. What seems to start out as a generic gov't conspiracy turns into a gauntlet of madness. What organization ISN'T a part of this wide-reaching conspiracy to dull the masses with...cat poop disease? Is your pet turning you into a mind-controlled slave? Listen and find out! cw: sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia

Hello again friends! Welcome to the first episode of 2019, the Year of the Cryptid. This week, we discuss projected cryptid visibility rates for the new year. Oh, and we talk about "Am Fear Liath Mòr," or "Big Grey Man," a Scottish folk tale teetering somewhere between cryptid and paranormal entity. Nile gets literal, Kyle squirts some funny juice, and the boys generally try to get to the bottom of the sing-songy, mist-obscured entity known as the Big Gray Man.

To end the year right, Kyle came back to illuminate Nile on the Tunguska Event. For the uninitiated, the Tunguska Event was a massive unexplained explosion in Siberia that puts your favorite explosions to shame. Now, when no blast crater could be found, conspiracy theorists came up with all sorts of fun explanations for this massive blast. Science may think they know what happened, but we get to the truth (hint: aliens) as we unpack the Tunguska Event. We also talk more about butterflies than you could possibly imagine.

Welcome back to It Gets Weird! This week we're doing our second ever holiday special! Kyle (who is now dead) has been replaced by Jules (who is actually pretty funny) and now Nile takes on the task of explaining a Christmas-time legend: the Krampus! How will Jules handle the traditional podcast blood contract? Is coal enough or should naughty kids go to hell? Just remember: the Krampus can't get you if you're in Florida...
