  • “It chodes your rods!” with Guest Ward Van Haute

    Episode 115: “It chodes your rods!” with Guest Ward Van Haute

                 Mind your manners, all; we’ve got company this week! Friend of the show, art expert, and all-around mensch Ward Van Haute returns to Whiparound studios to join Phil and Shaun as they deliver piping hot, freshly funky weird news right upside your head!

                And YES, Ward brought some strange news of the ART variety! His tale this week is a harrowing one, in which an artist caught in the path of Australia’s deadly brushfires found himself trapped in his doomed home…and all he had to save himself was a room full of art supplies. Find out how this drongo of a story ends in the latest edition of Weird Art News!

                Next, Phil faces a personal fear to bring us all word of the very latest in strange SCIENCE! Do NOT try this at home: Phil found some biohackers that took powerful meds used in treating cancer and injected this stuff right into their EYEBALLS! And…well, it had an effect. Find out how this all went down AND hear the good doctor squirm in the retelling!

                Oh, while we’re talking about biohacking, that’s the theme of this week’s GAME! See if you can separate shudderingly true attempts at improving humanity via (rather mad) science from a bunch of bunko that Phil thought up (and may try one day, if we’re not careful…)!

                And, as ever, we wrap things up at top speed AND top quality, blitzing through six recent bizarro headlines at record-breaking speed in everyone’s favorite cannonball of coverage, Three for the Road!

                We have style, we have grace, and biohackers, stay away from our face! It’s time for THE WHIPAROUND!

  • How to Wash and Petrify Your Brain!

    Episode 113: How to Wash and Petrify Your Brain!

                 Wow! Talk about synergy of the creepy AF variety: Shaun and Phil BOTH brought unsettling stories about the human brain for this week’s Whiparound. Turns out great minds think alike, and the things those great minds think are frickin’ VILE!

                But fear not, we start off with our usual lovely weird news appetizer, as Phil unspools a bunch of true-life bizarre headlines from this week and mixes in ONE fake headline…can YOU spot the Phil-born fraud amidst the odd-but-true list?

                And then, in part ONE of our brainiest episode yet, Phil’s got some recent news about MIND CONTROL on Facebook! And no, not the kind that has led to the utter ruin of all Thanksgiving dinners since 2015. This…this one is even dumber than what Uncle Burt’s been reading on TrueAmericanNewz.com.

                Next up, Shaun goes WAY up into the world of cranial trauma on this week’s Cabinet of the Macabre, taking us all the way back to Pompeii and thereabouts, where one lazy guard’s brain has become the stuff of scientific legend!

                And to round it all out, it’s the fastest, packed-tight-with-head-scratchers segment in all of the podcastaverse, everyone’s favorite news blur, Three for the Road! So put your thinking caps on, it’s time to tax that gray matter into oblivion with…THE WHIPAROUND!

    Episode 109: Mixing Drinks for Demons, a New Year’s Special! With Guest Gabe Mara

     

    HAPPY WEIRD NEW YEAR, CITIZENS! To help your pals at the Whiparound send off 2019 in our signature style, we’ve invited mixologist, movie expert, and all-around-nice-and-nice-SMELLING guy Gabe Mara to join us this time! Together, he and Phil take it upon themselves to convince Shaun that gin, his least favorite Christmas-tree-flavored spirit, isn’t so bad after all. The doctor and the man-about-town have prepared several cocktails, some famous, some brand spankin’ new, so listen in for Shaun’s thoughts on the clever recipes these two scallywags cooked up for him!

    But FIRST! in Shaun’s Cabinet of the Macabre, Shaun introduces a new flavor of dark and spooky coverage: Shaun’s BOOK REVIEW of the Macabre! And for this first edition of the creepy bibliophile’s club, he’s brought us a children’s book all about DEMONS! It’s garnered rave AND raving reviews on many sites, and earned itself the ire of PLENTY of the sorts of folks who love to watch pages smolder and burn…but is it any GOOD? Let’s find out, Citizen-kids!

    And, in Three for the Road, enjoy some bizarre Japanese plans for workplace equality, serial self-touchers brought to hairy-handed justice, idiotic thieves displaying their spoils on social media, and enough fun and games to choke out 2019 once and for all! Drop the ball, light the fireworks, and smooch the willing, it’s time for THE WHIPAROUND!
