Hey! Welcome to episode 14 of LOVING THE STRANGE where we talk about the strange, weird things people love and why. And this week’s episode is all about aliens, creatures/beings from another planet and the people who believe in them . . . or not. Sadly, we talk about probes, enemas, and whether we should just go full on pothead for the podcast and so much more. I hope you’ll check it out! And like and subscribe or sign up for the blog posts so you never miss our weirdness. Thank you all so much ...

Hey! Welcome to episode 12 of LOVING THE STRANGE where we talk about the strange, weird things people do in love and why. In very sad news, we are in day ten of KETO and Carrie the Carbosaurus is getting cranky. So let’s start with one of my favorites. It comes from a Reddit thread. Ready? “In 4th grade, I wrote the names of my two girl crushes on my dick...rode my bike to the rail tracks, stared at my dick, whispered their names and said I love you.” Hear more by clicking on the YouTube link or...

Welcome to Loving the Strange, an occasionally drunk dive into the weird things and people that we love. And this is episode eleven: Da Bomb and Viewer Questions? And there should probably be a content warning because Shaun blurted out an f-bomb. It was our hot sauce episode where Carrie tries Da Bomb and somehow survives, our kid shouts in the background while talking to her best friend Bella, and we find post-podcast a smear of blood on the wall. Turns out it was Shaun’s arm not a demon goat g...

Welcome to Loving the Strange, an occasionally drunk dive into the weird things and people that we love. And this is episode ten: Urban Legends Negative Entities or Devil Monkeys, Bloody Mary and Urban Legends that Make You Go, Huh? And there should probably be a content warning because some urban legends are scary things. But first we wanted to give a shout-out to our patrons who help support the podcast via supporting Carrie over there. And that’s Autumn, Claire, Jenn, Pam, Joan, Nancy, Toni, ...

This week on LOVING THE STRANGE, we stayed away from the paranormal and delved into (a tiny bit) why people love hot sauce and hot chicken wings. Carrie hiccuped her way through the vegan version of wings, which were sort of peach-puree nuggets while Shaun went full-on carnivore, gnawing on the bones. We talked a bit about the Heatonist, Gotcha! (Carrie’s favorite 80s movie), which came first the chicken or the egg, and how a lot of people who like hot sauce are thrill seekers, but some are just...

It's our second podcast and you can hear how: Shaun has a haunted doll friend. A ghost felt Carrie's thigh. The seance where the pencil caught on fire. Carrie's grandmother's ghost. And Shaun swear and be slightly naughty because he's Shaun. How M aine is the most haunted state and Mainers don't really seem to care. This podcast isn’t about writing. It isn’t about life tips. It’s really inspired by how Shaun and I are such opposites about so many things and yet we still love each other. There’s ...

So, for our first podcast we thought we'd talk about the places you feel call to you. It's like a land or region or building dejavu, but sometimes? It's even bigger than that. Tune in to hear about Shaun wanting the bayou and how Carrie walked through Versailles. This podcast isn't about writing. It isn't about life tips. It's really inspired by how Shaun and I are such opposites about so many things and yet we still love each other. There's got to be a lesson somewhere in there, right? It's uns...
