  • Kings park psychiatric center

    In this episode of the Say What Again Billy? Podcast, Spooky Season continues as Billy and Bobby discuss one of New York’s more under-the-radar spooky locations: Kings Park Psychiatric Center.

    Opened in the late 1800s on Long Island, Kings Park grew into a massive psychiatric facility that housed thousands of patients at its peak. Like many institutions of its time, overcrowding, understaffing, outdated treatments, and deteriorating conditions eventually became part of its troubled history before the facility ultimately closed in 1996.


    Billy and Bobby dive into some of the darker stories surrounding Kings Park and compare them to other asylums and psychiatric hospitals throughout the United States. Many of these institutions seemed to follow the same blueprint for disaster: too many patients, too few staff members, questionable treatments, and conditions that became increasingly difficult to manage.

    And where there is a dark history, paranormal stories usually follow. The guys also explore some of the reported hauntings and eerie legends connected to Kings Park and ask whether the suffering that took place there may have left something behind.

  • Spooky season chat

    On this episode of the Say What Again Billy? Podcast, Nicky and Billy kick things off with some great news — although it’s also a little bittersweet. Once they get that out of the way, the guys dive headfirst into Spooky Season chat.

    They talk about everything from Halloween and the holidays that follow it, to the way that spooky feeling seems to carry beyond October 31. They also look back at the nostalgia of growing up when Halloween felt absolutely top-notch, how much the season has changed over the years, and how they plan on spending Spooky Season this year with friends and family.

    Of course, they also break down what’s coming up for the SWAB Podcast, including some special YouTube content arriving just in time for Halloween. Billy and the investigative crew will be spending the night inside the infamous Lizzie Borden House before heading to Salem, Massachusetts, bringing listeners and viewers along for the history, paranormal investigation, sights, and sounds.

    This is the final episode before the Say What Again Billy? Podcast crew takes a short vacation and then returns ready to officially kick off a full lineup of Spooky Season episodes and specials leading into Halloween!

  • The jester and DMT realm

    Billy and Nick take on one of social media’s most talked-about recent mysteries involving DMT—a powerful psychedelic substance known for producing extremely intense hallucinations and experiences that some users describe as entering another dimension or “realm.”


    For years, people who used DMT have shared remarkably strange stories about traveling to this supposed realm and encountering bizarre landscapes, entities, beings, and realities that felt completely separate from our own.


    But lately, the stories circulating online have taken an even stranger turn.


    Some users now claim they’re being stopped or rejected from entering this DMT realm, sometimes describing an entity resembling a jester standing at the gates and refusing to let them pass.


    So what changed?


    Billy and Nick dive into these reports and an even bigger theory circulating around them: Could CERN and experiments involving the Large Hadron Collider have somehow altered our timeline—or even affected something beyond our physical reality?


    There’s no scientific evidence that CERN has altered timelines or supernatural realms, but when strange stories begin appearing from people describing similar experiences, it certainly gives us something interesting to talk about.


    Did something change with DMT experiences—or are we watching another internet mystery grow in real time?

  • Lizzie Borden

    In this episode of the Say What Again Billy? Podcast, the SWAB crew dives into one of the most infamous unsolved murder mysteries in Massachusetts history: the Lizzie Borden case.


    On August 4, 1892, Andrew and Abby Borden were brutally murdered inside their Fall River, Massachusetts home. Andrew’s daughter, Lizzie Borden, quickly became the prime suspect and was eventually put on trial for the gruesome crimes. But after a highly publicized court case, Lizzie was found not guilty, leaving behind questions that remain unanswered more than a century later.


    The crew dives into the entire case, from the events leading up to the murders and the discovery of the bodies to the investigation, evidence, possible motives, and ultimately Lizzie Borden’s trial. Did Lizzie really murder her father and stepmother? Could she have had help? Or was she, in fact, innocent of the crimes that made her one of the most infamous names in American history?


    But the story doesn’t end with the murders. The crew also explores the reported hauntings and paranormal activity that have made the Lizzie Borden House a destination for paranormal investigators from around the world.


    Plus, the SWAB crew gives a preview of their own upcoming overnight stay and paranormal investigation at the Lizzie Borden House this August! The entire experience will be filmed and released at the beginning of spooky season.


    What really happened inside the Borden home on that August morning in 1892? And could something still be lingering there today?

  • You won't own anything

    In the latest episode of the SWAB Podcast, Billy and Nick discuss Sony’s reported decision to move toward an all-digital future by 2028, raising concerns about the future of physical media. If games are only available as digital downloads, do we truly own what we purchase, or are we simply paying for a license that can be taken away?


    The conversation explores the disbelief and concern shared throughout the gaming community, as well as what this could mean for the future. Could other companies follow the same path with games, movies, music, and other digital purchases? If so, are we heading toward a world where we no longer physically own anything at all?


    If you’re someone who prefers owning physical copies or you’re concerned about what an all-digital future could mean for consumers, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

    Billy, Joey, and Nick dive into a viral story about a young woman who awoke from a medically induced coma believing she had lived an entire life while unconscious—complete with a husband and triplets. Upon waking, she was devastated to discover that none of it was real.


    The SWAB crew explores what happens scientifically during a coma, what medical experts say about consciousness and memory, and how the brain can create vivid realities during altered states. They also discuss the similarities between coma experiences and the intense dreams many people remember after deep sleep.


    Was it simply the brain at work, or is there something we still don’t fully understand about consciousness? Join Billy, Joey, and Nick for a thought-provoking episode filled with science, personal opinions, and mysteries that remain unexplained on this episode of the Say What Again Billy Podcast.
