The Freak Show

Hope you haven't gotten too comfortable this season, freaks, because we're back with actual freaky topics this week.

First up, Megan ruins sleep, which is honestly just mean. Fatal Insomnia? No thanks.

Then Lauren reads letters from the Westfield Watcher, the exact kind of neighbor no one wants. 

Enjoy, get the vax when you can and as always, rate review subscribe!

This week, we became an Official Podcast when Megan recorded from inside a closet! It's an exciting time to be a freak, that's for sure.

First up, Megan tells us about her new neighbors with a series of Florida Man headlines. Then Lauren introduces us to our new favorite person, Erwin Kruez, a German man who mistook rural Maine for San Francisco. Ladies, he's single! (Jk he's dead.)

Miss you, love you, send us your vax selfies & keep those masks tight!

This week's episode is all about balance. 

First, a delightfully weird woman and her enormous, confusing house. Then, a dark and terrifying cult story. Best of both worlds! 

Enjoy, keeps those masks tight and show us your secret list of freaky facts you've got on your phones at [email protected]. 

This one goes out to all the freaks we love - you're all our Valentine's. 

(Two days late, still counts.)

First up, Lauren crushes the storytelling with the man, the myth, the airplane hijacker, DB Cooper. Then Megan keeps everyone's favorite tradition alive with her annual report of Stuff That Went Up Butts. 

Spoiler alert: 2020 did not result is less stuff up butts. 

Enjoy, spread love not rona, keep those masks tight, freaks! 

Whether those two names mean something to you, or you have no idea who they are... this episode is for you.

Get your freak pants on and settle in as Lauren and Megan tell the stories of two truly horrible people. 

First, Tania Head who, like many of us, was NOT in the World Trade Center on 9/11. Then Mark David Chapman, who unlike many of us, finished reading Catcher & The Rye. 

And always, keep those masks on even while smooching your Valentine. Love you, freaks. 

Welcome to Season Four, freaks! 

We made it through 2020, and guess what - nothing's different on the other side. So to help us get through yet another week, Megan and Lauren are keeping things light in episode one. 

We're talking the history of "pets" in the White House, and the world's most expensive search for a toilet.

But don't think we're getting soft. Next week we promise to get DARK. 

Happy New Year, wear your mask(s), and stay freaky. 

Merry Season 3 Finale, Freaks! 

We've made it through 2020 and honestly, we're just as surprised as you are. To celebrate, Lauren takes us on a whirlwind tour of terrifying Christmas traditions from around the world. 

Then Megan shows us the true reason for the season with the story of family (and acquaintance) annihilator Ronald Gene Simmons. Thanks, Megan! It's just what we wanted. 

Happy holidays, stay warm and safe and masked up. We'll be back before you miss us. 

Oh my! 

It's our penultimate episode of 2020 (and Season 3) - who else is ready to wrap up the freakiest year on record? 

This episode features Megan spilling all the secrets of Skull & Bones, one of Yale's dumbest secret societies. Then Lauren takes us to Scotland in the 1800s for some good ol' fashioned grave robbing and murdering. 

Stay safe, keep those masks on and get ready for our freaky finale next week! 

Season 3 just keeps on coming, freaks! 

This week, Megan and Lauren each tackle topics that have been on their lists since the very beginning: an unsolved murder in Australia, and the one and only Baby Jessica.

It's the perfect episode to enjoy while staying inside, or social distancing, or wearing a mask, or celebrating the fact that we're finally in the last month of this truly hellish year. 

We're keeping it light for our first ever 30th episode, because... everything else is bad right now?

First up, Megan tells real life horror stories of babies switched at birth. Then Lauren talks about nature's weirdest experiment: the platypus. 

Enjoy, be thankful, wear a mask and stay safe, freaks.
