Hey, all! It’s Halloween time! I know that by the very nature of the show, we often cover some spooky shit. This week, we will be covering some spooky shit, BUT it’s some spooky shit that inspired a horror movie! On this episode we discuss the mass possession that took hold of the Wu family. Each member of the family claimed to be possessed by a different spirit or deity. Eventually the events lead to the death of one of the family members. These events inspired a Taiwanese horror film called Th...

This week, we cover aliens that have been described as full on robots. Are they armor? Drones? Or is there species of ETs that a more different from us than we could imagine. How different? Try Space Asparagus.... Sorry the episode is short. To be completely honest, we don't know why its so short after editing. We musta been abducted or something. The recordings 50 min long. Were stumped. https://cryptidz.fandom.com/wiki/Paciencia_Abductors

Ok this time we are serious. No jokes or surprise anniversary episode this time. This week. we are covering human mutilation. Not victims of crimes, not people who have died outdoors. We're talkin dead bodies that have treated the same way cattle have been in UFO related cases of the same nature. Is it aliens? Is it ritual sacrifice? Is it the government? Who knows. All we can tell is that there is someone or something harvesting human corpuses. Buttholes and all. www.TheWhatCast.com...

We've done it before, and we will likely do it again, but we are also doing it now. This week we cover some more of our favorite hoaxes and discuss our feelings on intentional hoaxes. Do they keep interest alive or muddy the waters?

By this point, we have to assume that everyone is familiar with the various iterations of the Mothman. Since the hay day of Mothman sightings in Point Pleasant, the mythical beast has gone on a worldwide sight-seeing spectacular! Today, we discuss one such incarnation of Mothman that both pre-dates the Point Pleasant sightings, and made a return a few years after. Today we take a crack at the being known as the Owlman of Mawnan. https://cornishbirdblog.com/the-owlman-of-mawnan-smith/ https://www...

You guys are likely familiar with the Michelin Man, right? Big puffy guy made of white stacked tires? Kinda looks like the Stay-Puft Marshmallowman. You know the one. Anyway, not only are we currently being robbed of the glory that was the cigar smoking, ass kicking tire mascot, BUT there is also a number of sightings of an alien or monster that very closely resembles this familiar ad icon. Maybe those aren’t stacked white tires, but a reminder that some sort of bastard abomination was sent from...

There's been quite a bit of weirdness in the news lately. While most of this stuff wouldn't require a full episode to cover, we've decided to collect some of the best weirdness from the news and dig into it all!

Friends, despite being at this thing for almost a decade, we have surprisingly few shows related to Bigfoot. Sure, we’ve got like a million on aliens and UFOs and weird ranches, but our Bigfoot selection is surprisingly sparse. This week, we are going to add one to the Bigfoot catalogue. We are taking a look at the York County area of Pennsylvania, which has a history of high strangeness coinciding with Bigfoot sightings. The Chestnut Hill events and sightings just happen to close to this area, ...

We have talked about the absolute craziness of Skinwalker Ranch many times, in fact, back in the early 90's.......just kidding. Never the less, Skinwalker Ranch is down right the most documented place of weirdness on earth. Or is it..... This week, we tackle the even more bizarre Sratdust Ranch. Yes you read that right.

Last week, we covered the tragic story of Phil Schneider. In watching the documentary and doing subsequent research, we came across the story of Dr. Karla Turner, who had a similar story. In fact, Dr. Turner died on the same day as Phil Schneider. Dr. Turner was outspoken regarding the possibility that paranormal phenomena is linked. Is it possible that she was on to the truth and was somehow deliberately killed to silence her? Watcher her lectures here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxdNtT...

It’s been brought to our attention that there is not any record of us putting out a show about Phil Schneider. While we both recall recording at least 1 episode, we could not find any record of it in the archives. Fortunately for us, the Directors Cut of the documentary The Underground came out last year, so we decided to give it a watch and cover it this week. For those that do not know who the Hell Phil Schneider was, he was a geologist contracted by the US Government to assist in the developm...

Remember some years ago when all those videos of sky sounds were making the rounds on the internet? We did an episode about them, feel free to go back and give it a listen. At the time, we thought they were likely fakes, hoaxes, phoney baloney. While we still stand by that (for the most part), we do have a case to discuss where a massive UFO flap began with strange sounds emanating from the sky. This week we take a look at a series of UFO sightings known as the Warminster Thing. Along with sound...

Whenever humans get the silly idea that we need to go to war, UFOs inevitably show up. What are they doing? Are they just watching the stupid primates kill each other? Are they waiting to intervene? This most recent display of war games being conducted in Ukraine is fast proving to be just as interesting to the controllers of these UAPs. There has even been a story, coming from the front lines, detailing an event where a group of Ukrainian soldiers were saved when a UFO in cloud blasted Russian ...

WIZARDS! *Queue lightning* MAD SCIENTISTS! *maniacal cackling* POLTERGEISTS! *Audible gasp* This week on The What Cast we take a look at a couple interesting individuals from history. Both considered to be wizards or sorcerers by the general public, but this was likely not the case. Listen, just because one guy can control lightning and create new species of insects, and the other guy can stretch himself like Mr. Fantastic and make furniture dance, that doesn’t mean they are freakin’ wizards.
