This week, the one-and-only John E. L. Tenney joins AP for a conversation about a wide range of weird subjects including witches, Bigfoots, frogs, comedians, and much more! As a longtime investigator of and lecturer in a variety of highly strange topics, Tenney brings a wealth of knowledge and presents it in a warm and funny way through his works and on his podcast, What's Up Weirdo. In this episode, he discusses his recent zine dedicated to Gundella the Green Witch, as well as other larger than life characters. From there the chat covers a lot of weird ground, as they discuss fictional media representations of high strangeness, the importance of humor in considering paranormal subjects, and baffling moments of sometimes useless psychic abilities.

A central theme in the discussion is about how to live one's best weirdo life, and how these interests can connect people who otherwise might never have met. Whether this is as simple as wearing your weird interests on your sleeve or as extravagant as becoming your area's local cryptid, Tenney's words and thoughts provide a great foundation for considering the strange and unusual.

Tenney was also one of the first guests on this very podcast, so if you missed it and enjoyed this one, go back and find that one as well!
