The What Cast #438 - The Near Death Experience Of Bill Leston

There has been much talk on this show about the connected nature of various kinds of paranormal experiences. One thing that we have not really touched on is Near Death Experiences and how some of these experiences might tie into other experiences, such as abductions, fairy encounters, and maybe even channeling. This week, we take a look at the interesting case of Bill Letson’s Near Death Experience. Bill Letson is former fire fighter that contracted a particularly vicious strain of the flu while...

The What Cast #436 - The Tsarichina Hole

What if I told you guys that there is a mystical hole that is so secretive and potentially dangerous, it had to get filled with concrete to protect the people around it? No. This has nothing to do with Taco Night. While I will agree, that could be a dangerous scenario, this hole is far worse! This week we discuss the Tsarichina Hole. This hole, which was excavated in Bulgaria, allegedly houses the frozen remains of some sort of alien creature. Once the chamber containing this being was breached ...

The What Cast #435 - SPECIAL REPORT: Whistleblowers and Crashes

Friends, it’s been a big week for UFO/Disclosure news! A bombshell interview given by David Grusch, a decorated former intelligence officer with high level security clearance, provides information related to a secret Government program that researches and reverse engineers crashed non-human (alien) craft. While this may seem like a huge win for those hoping for disclosure, there is a chance this could all be part of the cover-up. Later in the episode we also discuss a recent UFO/Alien sighting o...

The What Cast #434 - The Riegelsville Encounter

It’s been well established that we absolutely LOVE the cases of one-off weirdness. This week we actually discuss a fairly recent event that was brand new to us. The Riegelsville Encounter was one man’s run-in with a strange deer-like cryptid and it’s large humanoid friend. What followed the encounter would end up haunting the witness in ways he could not have imagined. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GoCMRQXU8OE&t=444s

The What Cast #433 - Flying Humanoids 2

We’ve made it well known on this show that we enjoy the weird cryptids and one-off sightings. It just adds a little bit of flavor into an already weird world. While this week’s show isn’t exactly about one time sightings, it does feature some weird cryptids that may be relatives of those we already know and love. This week, we look into sightings of a handful of very odd flying cryptid sightings. We also add some more “man” cryptids to the list. Move over Goatman, Bunnyman, and Mothman. Make way...

My friends, I have some harrowing news for you. Zombies are real. I repeat: Zombies are real. This week we will be discussing the reality of zomboids in our world.

The What Cast # 430 - Vatican Weirdness

The Vatican is the center of The Catholic Church. It’s the Headquarters, the mother ship, and the home of the human representation of God on Earth, The Pope. With the long and storied history of the Holy See, it’s no wonder that there are rumors, myths, legends, and conspiracy theories regarding the secrets that are kept in the Vatican. Today, we will be looking at a few of the stranger tales to come out of the Vatican, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. www.thewhatcast.com

The What Cast #429 - Jeff Sailors and The Buffalo Ranch

Want to experience the strange and unusual for yourself? Go buy yourself a ranch! Of course, we’re all very familiar with Skinwalker Ranch, at this point. We’ve also gotten into the over-the-top weirdness that took place on Stardust Ranch. Well, this week, we’ve got ANOTHER creeptacular ranch to tell you guys about. The Buffalo Ranch may not have an infestation of gray aliens or werewolves, but that doesn’t mean that it isn’t a hot spot for some serious paranormal activity! Seriously, though, wh...

The What Cast #428 - Wartime Weirdness: Afghanistan

We’ve discussed UFOs during Wartime several times in the past, but UFOs aren’t the old weird things that have been encountered by soldiers stationed overseas. This week, we take a look at some really creepy tales told by soldiers stationed in Afghanistan. We’ve cover everything from ghosts encounters to battles with giants…maybe Mike gets into fairies again. www.thewhatcast.com https://www.militarytimes.com/off-duty/military-culture/2022/11/01/here-be-giants-outlandish-tales-of-the-military-the-...

The What Cast #427 - The Dark Watchers Of California

While there may be good hiking in California, it's not without risk. Maybe you'll twist and ankle, maybe you'll get mauled by a rabbit, maybe you'll encounter the shadowy presence of The Dark Watchers.Are these entities wild shadow people, fairies, or maybe nothing more than an urban legends? http://www.weirdca.com/location.php?location=179 https://static1.squarespace.com/static/53c61a10e4b041f8efd946f1/t/53e8331de4b0ec4ca158ad5a/1407726365336/DarkWatchers_peak.pdf...

The What Cast #426 - Wisconsin Is For Giants

There is a lot of stuff floating around about the recovery of massive humanoid skeletons, and the subsequent cover-up. While it’s hard to believe that there may have been humungous 20 foot tall people romping around the Earth, there may be something to these claims. A somewhat recent discovery in China has opened the door to the possibility that there may be a new species of human that went extinct over 100,000 years ago. Is it possible that stories of “giants” may be attributed to this previous...

The What Cast #425 - Monster In Mexico

While the US is mired in this endless cycle of trickling UFO info without providing any new answers, Mexico is taking things a step further. At the end of February, the President of Mexico commented on a photo posted by an engineer working on a rail project that will connect ancient Mayan sites. The President commented that the photo showed the image of an Alux. This week, we discuss the Alux and compare them to other fairy myths from around the world. www.thewhatcast.com https://www.msn.com/en-...

The What Cast #422 - Portlock Alaska: Ghost Town

Hey everyone! This week we look at the famed abandon town of Portlock Alaska, A town here, for some reason, was left to ruin suddenly in the 1950's. There have been many who have asked: Why? Why would an entire town of people just up and leave their homes and jobs? Well, skeptics say it was the construction of a near by road, but if you ask the locals, that does not explain why they found the destroyed and mutilated human remains all over the place for 20 years. Thanks for listening and stay saf...

What does art have to do with the impending doom of the human race? Well...remember when everyone thought there was eventually going to be a robot uprising like Terminator? What if there was an advanced AI that was more subtle? It didn't crave destruction and death. No. Its purpose was to instill madness in the minds of all sentient creatures everywhere. That is the purpose of Loab. The What Cast aims to further that goal. https://www.ign.com/articles/loab-first-ai-art-cryptid www.TheWhatCast.co...

The What Cast #417 - Cryptid Counterparts: Nessie and The Morag

We’ve previously established our opinion that Nessie isn’t real, but what does that mean for other reported underwater cryptids? Are they all fake, too? Surely there are some out there that might be real, right? This week we have a look at on possibility known as Morag, the creature beast that dwells in the depths of Loch Morar. Is this another sham lake monster, trying to capitalize on the popularity of Loch Ness, or is this an instance where an unknown monster is actually dwelling just beneath...

The What Cast #416 - The Varginha UFO Crash

In 1996, a group of young women encountered a strange humanoid being with red eyes in the road near Varginha, Brazil. The events that both preceded and followed this sighting build a story that may be more compelling than the Roswell crash. This week, we discuss the Varginha UFO incident. Was this an actual event that is being actively covered up by the Brazilian Government or is this another psyop being used to muddy the waters regarding UFOs? Happy Thanksgiving! www.Manscaped.com USE PROMO COD...

Picture this: You’re in the woods. You hear the sounds of heavy footsteps approaching from off to your side. The hiss of heavy breathing seems to surround you as you are pelted with a rain of pebbles. You run off, not seeing anything, but assuming you’ve just had an encounter with Bigfoot. Well, Bucko, you were wrong! You just had an experience with a poltergeist out in the wilds of nature. Is it possible that the same powers or spirits behind bigfoot encounters AND alleged poltergeist are actua...

Do you guys remember how there was supposed to be a report on UAPs released by Oct 31? Well…this may come as a surprise, but this report is late! While we do not have anything official, yet, there have been some alleged insider leaks regarding what the new report may contain. Hold on to your hardhats, kids, this is going to blow your mind! Not really. In reality, this is probably another Project Blue Book sort of thing. Hey, let’s spice things up a bit. I hear tell that Mike and Mateo both saw s...
