High Strangeness surrounds the world, cropping up here and there, imbuing ordinary reality with weirdness and dunking normal people into strangeness and wonder. Follow us as we explore a reality that is stranger than any fiction.
Morganna and Barbara greet and talk with author and expert on fairy folklore, Morgan Daimler. They talk about the old fairy beliefs and modern pop culture understandings of The Good Folk. Fact, fiction, and personal experience blend into a grand, meandering, pixy-led conversation.
Morganna and Barbara welcome Anthropologist, author and instructor at the University of Wales Trinity St. David, Dr. Jack Hunter. They start off discussing his most recent book, "Manifesting Spirits: An Anthropological Study of Mediumship and the Paranormal," but very quickly the topic broadens out into a discussion of how high strangeness becomes domesticated once it becomes part of an established religion or belief system.

Our hosts discuss the mechanics of human vision, art and how those relate to UFO's, but the conversation ranges far afield. As Greg says, "Everything should be off topic," and so no one should be surprised that food, cooking, family stories, books and cattle mutilations are touched upon as we galumph along.

We start out talking about hungry ghosts, mediumship, and psychology, then we roll off onto a myriad of other subjects, from trauma to magic to ghosthunting. A deep, but very fun discussion!
Barbara, Kendra and Morganna introduce the town of Athens, Ohio, infamously named one of the most haunted places in the world by the British Society for Psychical Research in the 1990's. But it's not all ghosts--our town is full of strange lights in the woods, UFO's, hairy hominid sightings, and fairy sightings, as well as psychics, witches, musicians, and artists. This is only the first in a series of episodes that talk about all the weirdness that we live with in this little town in Appalachia...
Alex tells us all about the ghosts she has known her entire life and what it’s like to walk with the spirits. As a bonus, there’s a discussion of Mothman’s bootie, and Kendra explains why you should never shake the box with a cat in it.
In Episode 9: A Fortean Feast of Folklore with Joshua Cutchin, the hosts and guest engage in a wide-ranging, galloping conversation that goes from tubas to fairy lore to hungry ghosts to grays and all around the mulberry bush. It’s long, but fun.

In our second "Table Talk," we gather our our virtual kitchen table to talk with experiencer, art model, musician and psychic Peter Stenshoel. Synchronicities abound with ghosts, UFOs/ UAPs, and connections to Norway. It's like meeting cousins you never knew you had.
A chat around a virtual kitchen table with our hosts and experiencers Linda Sigman and Michael Moore.
Welcome to Episode 3! Kendra presents ideas on how to tell if what your’e experiencing in your home is paranormal in nature or just normal—albeit perhaps, somewhat dangerous. Is it a ghost, or just the plumbing? Shadow people or black mold? Dead people or squirrels nesting in your walls?
Thank you for being patient waiting for this second episode; we hope you enjoy it!
Welcome to our first episode! We’re still learning the equipment, format and technology, so it’s rough in spots, but we’re pleased with it. Theme music is called “Earth Lights” and it was composed and recorded by Zak Kramer, who also put the episode together. We hope you enjoy it enough to come back for Episode Two: “Living in an Enchanted World” in two weeks.
