Thanks for tuning in to Weird Tales From El Paso. This project has been a labor of love for me, and I hope you all enjoyed it. I can’t thank the guests of the podcast enough for sharing their time, expertise, and stories, and for really taking this podcast to the next level. I also want to thank all my friends and family who supported me along the way. This wasn’t an easy project to put together, and I couldn't have done it without each of you.

So now, just a few things about what comes next.

While I dropped this first batch of episodes simultaneously, moving forward, I'll be producing and releasing individual episodes one at a time. All the research, scripting, and logistics involved in putting them together during my free time as a one-man team isn’t easy, so doing it this way will help me keep my sanity and make sure that each episode gets the right amount of time and effort it needs. Obviously, that also means this won’t be a weekly podcast or one that sticks to a strict release schedule. Still, my plan is to release them somewhat consistently.

I’m already into production on a good one we recorded in a haunted jail in New Mexico, and things got spooky, so you’re not gonna want to miss that one! Other topics I’d like to explore are legends of UFOs in the area, the Horizon City Monster, the Smeltertown Cemetery, haunted firehouses in town, legends of the Franklin Mountains, and more. There’s so much to look into and talk about!

Also, if you have your own spooky stories to share or ideas for future episodes, please reach out! Your stories and voices are what make this podcast special, so please reach out with any experiences you’d like to share at bluelabpro.com/wtfelpaso.  And if you enjoy the show, please don't forget to leave a review.

Stay tuned, stay weird, and thank you again!

Welcome to the Blue Lab Pro Podcast and why should you care?

This is a podcast where I, Adrian Meza, aka, The Blue Lab Pro, chats with Pop Culture Pros from all over. So why do I think I’m qualified to run a podcast worthy of your time, and what do I mean by Pop Culture Pro?

I’ve been a digital content creator for about 10 years now, working at my local university as an Instructional Technologist helping faculty create all sorts of content for their classes, including videos, animations and podcasts. I’ve learned a lot in those 10 years about creating engaging and meaningful content, and have also run other pop culture centric podcasts with friends in the past, so this just seems like a good next step. But now that you know a little about me, what is a Pop Culture Pro?

For me, a Pop Culture Pro is anyone inspired by pop culture to create. My goal with this new podcast is to interview people who are creating or doing really cool stuff inspired by the pop culture we all know and love. The way I see, if some movie, show, book, comic, etc, inspires you to do something cool, you’re a Pop Culture Pro and I want to talk to you. So if you think this podcast is right up your alley, please have a listen – episode 1 is already out – and let me know what you think by reviewing the show on Apple Podcasts or whatever platform you’re listening on. Better yet, if you’re doing something cool inspired by pop culture, please reach out on bluelabpro.com or on Instagram @bluelabpro, and we’ll talk about recording a conversation!

This wont be a weekly podcast, but I will be posting several throughout the coming months. Please have a listen and let me know. Thanks!
