We also spoke with researcher Karma about her long-standing work on the group. Subscribe for $5 a month to get an extra epis...

In 1989, in the bustling seaport of San Pedro, California, Jackie Hernandez began to experience strange phenomena in her newly rented bungalow. Lights would turn on and off. Objects would move. A heavy breathing could be heard rattling in the attic above her laundry room. After a neighbor experienced the activity herself, she encouraged Jackie to reach out to a team of Ghost Hunters she had recently seen on TV. What would follow was a year-plus long investigation that included everything from fu...

When it comes to possession, we’re used to hearing stories about the demonic variety. But there’s another side to it: those anointed by the Holy Spirit in religious movements such as Pentecostalism. This type of possession crescendos to ecstatic states, along with spastic movements, snake and fire handling, poison drinking, and faith healing. And in this rare case, a murder done in the name of God. This is the story of one of the most bizarre, depraved, & little-known acts of spirit possession e...

Time Travel.

But what if you stumbled upon time travel completely by accident? Where would you go? What would you do? This week, Jake, Brad, and Julian dive into the wondrous case of Mike “Mad Man” Marcum, a Coast to Coast AM caller who c...

For hundreds of years the Rothschild banking family played a central role in conspiracist narratives. In the 19th century the Rothschilds’ massive wealth, war profiteering, connections to powerful governments, and pioneering banking strategies earned them well-deserved scrutiny. But myths about the Rothschilds eventually became a way to promote anti semitic attacks and disguise them as critiques of wealth and power. To help us separate fact from myth when it comes to the Rothschild family, we ar...

In the second episode of the Spectral Voyager, we take you on a journey through several devastating disasters - Aberfan, 9/11, the Titanic, plane crashes - and the people that seemed to dream of them before they happened. In fact, there were so many cases of these dreams and visions that a national bureau was created in the U.K. to catalog them, with a tragic ending. We also interview science writer, author, and precog expert Dr. Eric Wargo about the possi...

An online community convinced they can change their race by watching and listening to youtube videos called "subliminals".

Social media is in flux. The disruption started when Elon Musk acquired Twitter, purged most of the staff, turned the blue checkmark verification system into a pay for play system, and welcomed previously banned extremists and QAnon followers back onto the platform. To add to the chaos, last week Elon announced that Twitter is rebranding as “X.” His stated goal is to turn X into an “everything app,” an all-in-one platform for messaging, voice and video calls, social media posts, payment services...

Down the rabbithole of a right wing panic, inside joke, and image board meme turned bizarre community. "Transmaxxing", on the surface, is the idea that young men (mostly involuntarily celibate or "incels") are becoming trans women to increase their odds of getting laid. In right wing media, the concept is being covered as a serious movement so as to fuel harmful transphobic narratives and erode civil protections for trans people. But is it actually a thing? And who came up with "transmaxxing"? L...
