    Did It All For WHAT Nookie?
    Nov 15 2024

    Welcome to Hell, Weirdos!!


    Just kidding, it won't ALL be hell. Only a little hell, as a treat. Welcome to KEEP IT WEIRD the podcast for all things strange and unusual, unsettling and unsolved, unexplained and overwhelmed, spicy, silly and everything in between and we are OFFICALLY BACK to finish out another year of weird. This week is heavy on the mysteries but, hey, so is life my friend! Ashley starts us off with the Canneto di Caronia fires that took place in 2003 & 2004. HUNDREDS of spontaneous fires erupted in the small Sicilian village prompting the government to evacuate and bring in hundreds of specialists to look for a cause.. but to this day... we have very few answers. Lauren brings us a new segment THE MISSING and covers the tragic story of Christine Walters who has now been missing for 16 years. Was she involved in the illegal farming of marijuana? Did she join a cult? Was she attacked by someone on one of her nature walks? Unfortunately we may never know Just in case that last story got a little too depressing-- Ashley comes back in with an unsolved mystery from 1969 revolving the LESSER FAMOUS space flight Apollo 10. Something very strange happened aboard that ship and we'll never know who was responsible.... Check out some links below if you want to read up on any of the topics we discussed this week.

    The Truth is IN HERE
    Oct 11 2024
    TW: death, murder, torture cannibalism, animal injuries, government conspiracies, and brief mention of pedophilia Do you think I'm spooky, weirdos? Welcome to KEEP IT WEIRD the podcast for all things strange & unusual, X-tra creepy & conspiratorial, X-tremely vile and X-actly what you need this October This episode is an X-FILES-TRAVAGANZA!! It's time to put on your Scully and Mulder thinking caps to try and get to the bottom of some REAL LIFE X-Files that REALLY could have used Fox and Dana's investigating. Our (returning) special guest this week, artist BILLY ROACH is bringing us a nice CONSPIRACY as we chat about the fact & fictions surrounding the REPTILIANS. Are they here? Have they taken over the bodies of politicians, actors and royalty? DO THEY HAVE LOW BLOOD PRESSURE? Ashley makes sure we get a little ALIEN CHAT in right at the beginning before she brings us a very Scully-friendly SCIENTIFIC look at a 100+ year old mystery. How in the world did Edward Leedskalnin build Coral Castle in Florida? How did he lift objects that were close to 60,000 lbs? BY HIMSELF?! In the dark.... ?? And finally Lauren brings us our MONSTER OF THE WEEK as she chronicles the life and death of a man only known as TARRARE. His insatiable hunger (that was caused by either an unknown disease or the fact that he was born on another planet) got him kicked out of his family home, made him the star of the circus, almost got him killed in the war between France & Prussia and eventually put him in some real hot water when he turned to human flesh for satisfaction.

    Sep 27 2024

    TW: Sexual assault, suspicions of murder, missing persons, short mention of abuse of an animal

    Bonjour, Weirdos and welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD the podcast for all things strange & unusual, conspiratorial & psychological, unsolved & unhinged and EVERYTHING in between. This week we've got some OLD BUSINESS to attend to right off the bat because Ashley has an update from last episode on THE GATEWAY PROJECT!! Turns out... uh... page 25 has not been missing for a few years now. So we go over what that page entails and how it may just change the way you view the world forever. Then Lauren takes us into a PARANORMAL PARADISE as we discover you don't need an old dilapidated mansion to live with ghosts-- sometimes apartments can be JUST as scary! The haunting of Brooklyn's 455A Sackett Street is a strange and terrifying tale of what happens when a place is used for bad deeds for too long.... Ashley brings us home with an UNSOLVED MYSTERY and potentially even an unsolved murder, as we learn about a man named Louis Le Prince who disappeared without a trace only DAYS before he was to unveil the world's very first working moving picture machine. The patent for the machine just so happened to disappear alongside him and a mere 8 months later a very famous inventor announced that HE had invented the world's very first moving picture machine... and boy did it look an awful lot like Le Prince's design...... Today's episode is dedicated to a lover of our show, a listener we lost on September 21st, 2023. Susan Lee Bartlem, Lee to all who knew her well, passed away exactly a year to the DAY that we recorded this episode. (which was an accident... but there are no accidents.) Lee was a beloved teacher at Rockhampton Girls Grammar School in Queensland Australia for 23 years and she was a REAL WEIRDO. Not only did they play Metallica and read Anne Rice at her funeral, but her family even got Keep It Weird tattoos in her honor. It would have been a thrill to meet Lee in real life, on this astral plane, but she lives on forever in the hearts of her students, her friends and family, and with all of us who call ourselves weirdos with pride.

    Mother Shipton & the Dreamlets
    Sep 13 2024
    TW: witchcraft, murder, air travel disasters Hi Weirdos!! Welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD-- the podcast for all things strange & unusual, wicked and WILD, perky and petrifying and everything in between.
    This week's episode is a wild ride and we're traveling all throughout space and time to bring it to you! Lauren starts us off with a WHERE IN THE WORLD (Is Keep It Weird Going?) as we astral project to an old creepy cave in LONDON where a witch was born! Mother Shipton's Cave is England's OLDEST tourist attraction-- it's been operating since 1630!! There are a lot of strange things about this cave-- specifically the petrifying water well that turns objects into stone! AND DID I MENTION A WITCH WAS BORN THERE?! Then we both fall DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE where Ashley takes us from a prophetic dream, to a plane crash, to a CIA declassified document, to NASA and then all the way back to a 13th century dance as we discuss consciousness & whether or not it can temporarily leave our bodies.

    TW: Torture, starvation, humiliation, death, apocalypse & end times (specifically the religious kind) Another day, another END TIMES PROPHECY. That's ok though, because after THIS episode you're either going to feel secure that the world is not going to end OR you're going to be begging for its destruction. Hello this is Keep It Weird, the podcast for all things strange & unusual! Every time we get together we chat about something WEIRD and this episode is no exception. Ashley starts us of with the segment END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT and tells us all about the PROPHECY OF SAINT MALACHY (more commonly referred to as The Prophecy of the Popes) In 1139 AD Malachy had an intense vision that documented ALL future popes. The end times would come during the time of the 112th pope. AND WOULDN'T YA JUST KNOW IT -- guess who is number 112! Lauren does nothing to make us feel better about ourselves as we dive into REALITY TV CORNER and discuss the horrific story Susunu! Denpa Shōnen in which a young fella named Nasubi was forced to stay alone and unclothed in a small apartment (with no food or access to the outside world) until he won enough money playing mail in sweepstakes to earn his way out. Did we mention he didn't know he was being broadcast LIVE?? And finally we jam our way into REAL OR HOAX as we discuss the Nazca Alien Mummies. You may remember them from that presentation to the congress of Mexico last year? Journalist (& ufologist) Jaime Maussan is NOT letting go of these corpses and he's still releasing bits of their discoveries every day. Are these cake-like mummies the real deal?? Or are they just another hoax (like the mummies he produced in 2015) (and the mummies he produced in 2016)(and the mummies he produced in 2017) Check out some links below if you want to do some more research into today's topics!!

    Jabberwocky Strikes Again
    Aug 16 2024
    TW: genetic experimentation on animals, mention of Satan Oh Frabjious Day, weirdos! Welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD, the podcast for all things strange and unusual, hairy and scary, mysterious and unknown and everything in between!! This week we cover FOUR very WEIRD topics, we introduce some new segments, we show off some cool stuff we bought with our adult money and we even recite some poetry. Lauren starts us off with her very first MONSTER WATCH as we head to Santa Paula California in search of the BILLIWHACK MONSTER. This thing might be a bigfoot, a government experiment gone horribly awry, an interdimensional creature that crawled through a hole in space-time or possibly the devil himself. Ashley brings us two stories in a new segment she calls MONKEY'N AROUND! First up is our new favorite Orangutan, KEN ALLEN. Known as the "Hairy Houdini" at the San Diego zoo, Ken became famous for outwitting his zoo handlers and escaping his "inescapable" enclosure several times. Then we head into the modern day and discuss China splicing human DNA into chimpanzees. The goal is to attempt to find the gene that gave us consciousness... but could it result in Planet of the Apes? And finally Lauren gives us a BIT O' BIOLOGY with a 2009 study in Scientific American regarding music and how not only does it move us emotionally and affect our "heart" but it also might affect our HEART!! That's right, it's possible that Music may help keep your cardiovascular system regulated and we may be able to use music in the future to help treat victims of heart attacks and strokes to re-regulate their circulatory systems.
