The Activity Continues

This week Amy is recapping “Hotel Nowhere” which is Season 2 Episode 21 of The Dead Files. This guy, we do not mince words with him. Amy tells a personal ghost story, her Ring light got brighter when no one was touching it, and she shows Megan a video that has some unexplainable objects in it (you can see that on our blog).

 

Spoiler alert: During the recap we ponder TB hospitals and give away spoilers for a twelve-year-old show.

 

We learn a new word thanks to Amy’s dad’s saying this week: “The thrust of connection was repudiation.”

Content Warning: Abuse of vulnerable people in history (mentally and physically ill) also, we swear.

Stuff we talked about:

Content Warning: child murder and sexual assault in history, not detailed. Also, we swear.

We also talked about TikTok (again – do you think we should just start a sister podcast all about TikTok? Would anyone listen?). TikTok’ers with Alzheimer’s/Dementia, Tourette’s Syndrome, brain training. Friends who never stop talking, Snowmaggedon 2023, the Ghost of Holyrood, Amy’s apartment ghost, the importance of sleep, and our love of cheese. We eventually get to the topic at hand.

This week Amy is recapping “They Come from the Hills” which is from Season 13 Episode 8 of The Dead Files.

Amy has a glitch in the matrix story. Megan gives us a recap on her Dungeons & Dragons adventure. More about our fave TikTok author Jeneva Rose. We think we know what Scott is so butt-hurt about. Amy’s empath moment driving through South Minneapolis. The Crown act passes in Minnesota. We laugh about imaginary babies named Marge.

All we know is that someone had to pull some ropes and swing some dingdongs to get that.

Content Warning: Child death in history, but we didn’t go into great detail. Also, we swear.

This week Megan is recapping “Tormented” which is from Season 2 Episode 10 of The Dead Files. This story will give you volatile snapdragon bumps.

Content Warning: Abuse of children and animals in history. Rape. Suicide. Also we swear.

We apologize ahead of time for the sound quality, we recorded in person again and well, that never really goes well for sound quality.

 

We also talked about: Joe Kenda, new merch (that is already discontinued); Dearly departed pets; Stroganoff; Food Magazines; TV shows that are over and how we deal; Jeneva Rose author of the book The Perfect Marriage and Scott; Amy Amy-splains what “Free” means; reading for money; shout-out to hospice nurses; and the comfort of the Golden Girls when things get scary. 

We gabbed a LOT so if you’re only here for Dead Files content you’ll want to skip ahead to about 15:52 (give or take if you listen on a platform with ads). This podcast should be called “oh that reminds me”.

This week Amy is recapping “Death and Dolls” which is from Season 1 Episode 4 of The Dead Files.

*Audio note: We recorded this in person and we don’t have a sound engineer helping us at the time of recording, so we only found out later, that the sound is pretty messed up (too loud at times, too soft at times). Amy tried to fix it, but is not a magician.*

This week we talked about: Ranch dressing aka Minnesota Sauce; how our Amy and Amy Allan are not actually besties (unfortunately); our Hall Pass celebrities; haunted dolls for sale on eBay, 

Question: if a spirit is in a doll, and something happens to the doll can the spirit feel it?

We say “Those f*cking dolls!” a lot.

This week Megan is recapping “The Darkening” which is from Season 6 Episode 5 of The Dead Files in which we learn that Death is a short woman with a wide hat.

We really loved this family and hope they are doing better now. If anyone knows them and thinks they would like to chat with us on the show, please have them reach out at [email protected]. We would love to meet them.

We also talked about Megan recovering from the flu, our feelings on The Circle finale. Amy recommended a show on Apple + TV called Slow Horses. Megan talks about her foray into the world of Dungeons and Dragons. Amy goes on for longer than needed, about Top Chef. Then we also talk about the future of The Dead Files, and medium Gary Spivey and his wacky cupcake hair. Anyone else craving a Hostess Snowball?

 

Content Warning: We talked about being sick, vomit, shit, etc. In the episode recap we talked about the client losing her sight. Then murder (stabbing), suicide, animal cruelty all in history.

This week we have a special treat for you! We met with Randy, a Dead Files client from season 14. His episode is #9 and it’s called “Sudden Awakening”.

Content Warning: Suicide, accidental drug overdose, near death experience.

Other stuff: Randy told us all about the many experiences that he and his family have been had, before and after the filming of The Dead Files. He also let us show you a video he took in his home that captures something really strange! You’ll hear us talk about it in this episode. Check out website/blog for that if you want to watch it. https://www.podpage.com/the-activity-continues/blog/

Randy and Megan bonded over crafting.

Then he surprised us all by spilling a little Dead Files tea as well as some other celebrity tea.

Randy crushed Amy’s dreams of her Movie Star Boyfriend being a nice guy. But we do get confirmation about another guy we all love being a super nice and funny guy (which we sort of already knew and really hoped).

This is a discussion that was cut out from our episode 51, because we didn’t want to spoil The Circle for those who haven’t seen it.

We discuss Season 5 Finale as well as a little about past seasons. Megan speculates what she would do if she were a contestant, and Amy talks about her brush with the Circle.
