Join Kyle and Ardon as they break up their JFK series with a classic story in UFO lore, THE KENNETH ARNOLD UFO SIGHTING. Kenneth Arnold had a relatively normal life and upbringing. He played sports in high school, went on to become an engineer, open his own business, and settle down to have a family. That all changed on one June day in the year 1947 - Kenneth was flying a plane and as he was in the sky, he noticed several UAPs or UFOs in the air with him. This story was only the beginning of a phenomenon that would take over the country. Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards!

Join Kyle and Ardon as they CONTINUE on their multi-part series on the assassination of former U.S. President John F Kennedy with PART 4: Jack Ruby! Jack Ruby was an American nightclub owner who murdered Lee Harvey Oswald on November 24, 1963, two days after Oswald was accused of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Ruby shot and mortally wounded Oswald on live television in the basement of Dallas Police Headquarters and was immediately arrested. In a trial, Ruby was found guilty and sentenced to death. Ruby became ill, was diagnosed with cancer, and died of a pulmonary embolism on January 3, 1967. In 1964, the Warren Commission concluded that Ruby acted alone in killing Oswald, that Ruby shot Oswald on impulse and in retaliation for the Kennedy assassination. The commission's findings are challenged by various critics who hypothesize that Ruby was part of a conspiracy surrounding the Kennedy assassination. AND THAT IS JUST THE BEGINNING!

WELCOME TO OUR 100th EPISODE!! To commemorate 100 episodes, we are starting our next multi-part series on one of the most controversial and discussed conspiracy theories of all time, the assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy, former President of the United States. John Fitzgerald Kennedy (May 29, 1917 – November 22, 1963), often referred to by his initials JFK and by the nickname Jack, was an American politician who served as the 35th president of the United States from 1961 until his assassination in 1963. He was the youngest person elected president and the youngest president at the end of his tenure. On November 22, 1963, Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas. His vice president, Lyndon B. Johnson, assumed the presidency upon Kennedy's death. Lee Harvey Oswald, a former U.S. Marine, was arrested for the assassination, but he was shot and killed by Jack Ruby two days later. The FBI and the Warren Commission both concluded Oswald had acted alone, but conspiracy theories about the assassination still persist. That is exactly what we will be talking about these next few weeks! Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards!

Join Kyle and Ardon as they dictate one of the craziest times in American history; THE BONE WARS! The Bone Wars, also known as the Great Dinosaur Rush, was a period of intense and ruthlessly competitive fossil hunting and discovery during the Gilded Age of American history, marked by a heated rivalry between Edward Drinker Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh . Each of the two paleontologists used underhanded methods to try to outdo the other in the field, resorting to bribery, theft, and the destruction of bones. Each scientist also sought to ruin his rival's reputation using attacks in scientific publications. So many important and impactful scientific discoveries were made during this time period in the 1800's. Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards!

Join Kyle and Ardon as they dive into their FINAL story of their month-and-a-half long series on two of the most prolific paranormal investigators of all time; ED & LORRAINE WARREN. “The Conjuring” is one of the most successful and influential horror movies of our time, arguably of all time. As the movie claims, the story told in the Conjuring is “based off true events.” Since the events in the Conjuring are so terrifying, people have been fascinated with what the true story of the Perron Family could be. Tonight, we will attempt to understand the full story of The Perron Family, otherwise known as The Conjuring Family! After moving into a 200 acre plot of land with a 14 bedroom house, the Perron family allegedly experienced unprecedented amounts of paranormal activity for the ten years they lived at that house. Ed and Lorraine showed up after a few years of the activity to conduct their investigation - All of this and more in tonight's episode! Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.ee/backasswardspod

Join Kyle and Ardon as they discuss one of the most prolific alleged paranormal encounters ever documented: The Enfield Poltergeist! This is continuing our month of Ed and Lorraine Warren's most known cases! In London, England, the Hodgson family started experiencing violent paranormal happenings almost as soon as they moved into their new public housing. Recovering from being abandoned by the family's father, the family seemed to be an easy target for... Something. Whatever was afflicting this family followed them for extended period of time, and many witnesses claim to have seen apparition's at the family's house. Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.ee/backasswardspod

Join Kyle and Ardon as they continue the month of October with another of Ed and Lorraine Warren's most prolific cases: THE SOUTHEND WEREWOLF.   The story of the Southend Werewolf is a peculiar one to say the least. Exactly what you're thinking is exactly what this case is. Bill Ramsey was a man who lived in London that claimed to be a real-life werewolf. He also further claimed that he had been afflicted with this since 1952 when he was just 9 years old. And of course, we wouldn't be talking about this case this month if it were not for good old Ed and Lorraine Warren getting involved in the case. Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.ee/backasswardspod

Join Kyle and Ardon as they begin THE MONTH OF OCTOBER with one of Ed and Lorraine Warren's most famous cases: Annabelle the Doll! This episode kicks off not only the Halloween season here at the Backasswards Podcast, but it also begins our month long series on some of the Warren's most famous cases! Ever since the premiere of The Conjuring and the skyrocketing fame of the Warrens, there has been a growing rumor of a haunted doll tucked away in the of their basement “museum”. A haunted doll with a supposed death toll, and a cinematic universe. The unassuming doll sits in a glass case while a tarot card of “The Devil” is stuck to the front of the case. But beneath the case is a sign that reads: “Warning, positively do not open.” Since her first supposed haunting in 1970, this allegedly evil doll has been blamed for demonic possession, a slew of violent attacks, and at least two near-death experiences. In recent years, the true stories of Annabelle have even inspired a series of horror films. But just how much of Annabelle's story is real?

Join Kyle and Ardon as they conclude their two part series on two of the most prolific paranormal investigators of all time; Ed and Lorraine Warren! When we left off last week, Ed and Lorraine had done something that would make them stand out - In 1952, they founded the New England Society for Psychic Research Headquarters or NESPR. An organization dedicated to helping people who are tormented by paranormal events. With this organization they would document, photograph, audio, and video record many of the cases they investigated. This very quickly, as some of us know, snowballed into one of the most fascinating collections of paranormal research. Tonight we will discuss their investigative careers, their legacy, impact, skeptics, scandal, and so much more.  Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.ee/backasswardspod

Join Kyle and Ardon as they discuss two of the most notorious and successful paranormal investigators of all time; ED AND LORRAINE WARREN! Edward and Lorraine Warren were American paranormal investigators and authors associated with some of the most prominent cases of alleged hauntings. Ed was a self-taught and self-professed demonologist. Lorraine professed to be clairvoyant and a light trance medium who worked closely with her husband. Most of us know these people from movies like The Conjuring, Anabelle, The Nun, The Curse of La Llorona, and so much more. The Warrens also authored many books about the paranormal. They claimed to have investigated well over 10,000 cases. Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.ee/backasswardspod

Join Kyle and Ardon as they delve into two of the most perplexing cases we've ever heard of; The Somerton Man case and the Peter Bergmann case.  EPISODE CONTENT WARNING: MENTIONS OF SUICIDE On Dec. 1, 1948, beachgoers came across a dead man on Australia's Somerton beach. Well-dressed, and with no signs of trauma, his identity and cause of death eluded local police. Soon, investigators dubbed him the “Somerton Man.” As their investigation deepened, so did the mystery. Not only did the man's possessions offer few clues, but investigators also found a slip of paper in the man's pocket which read “Tamám Shud,” Persian for, “it is finished.” It wasn't until as recent as 2022 that the identity of the Somerton man had been identified. The circumstances of the Somerton Man's death were so confusing, that it also started a media frenzy. The Peter Bergmann case pertains to the mysterious death of an unidentified man in Sligo, County Sligo, Ireland, on or around 16 June 2009. The man, using the alias "Peter Bergmann", had checked into the Sligo City Hotel on 12 June, where he stayed during the majority of his visit to Sligo. The man's movements were captured on CCTV throughout the town; however, the details of his actions and intentions remain unknown. His interactions with other people were limited, and little is known of his origins or the reason for his visit.

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they continue their WATER THEMED MONTH by covering two of the most curious water creatures of all time; The Fiji Mermaid and Jake The Alligator Man.

But what is the truth behind these stories. Tonight we will attempt to figure out what makes these creatures so sensational to so many people.  Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.ee/backasswardspod

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they continue their water month with one of the oldest legends of all time: ATLANTIS. No other myth in history ever reached the global fame that Atlantis has gained, as the symbol of a long-lost Utopia, still waiting to be discovered. Its mere name has become synonymous with advanced knowledge, hidden paradises, colossal natural disasters, and the concept of a unique adventure beyond our wildest dreams! Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.ee/backasswardspod

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they delve into one of the oldest legends of all time; THE KRAKEN! “The Kraken”  is a term that we all have most likely heard. Not only is this cryptid one of the most well-known creatures of all time; but also one of the most terrifying. Dating all the way back to the 12th century, The Kraken has persisted in the minds of humans for a long time. There's something about this creature that surpasses several other cryptids in terms of alleged encounters, death toll, and so much more. This also begins another THEMED month on The Backasswards Podcast! In the hot summer month of August, we will be doing a WATER THEMED MONTH. Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.we/backasswardspod

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they dive into one of the most prolific celebrity deaths of all time: The Death of Marilyn Monroe! Marilyn Monroe  was an American actress, singer, and model. Famous for playing comedic "blonde bombshell" characters, she became one of the most popular sex symbols of the 1950s and early 1960s and was emblematic of the era's sexual revolution. She was a top-billed actress for a decade, and her films grossed $200 million (equivalent to $2 billion in 2021) by the time of her death in 1962.  In 1999, the American Film Institute ranked her sixth on their list of the greatest female screen legends from the Golden Age of Hollywood. However, the mysterious circumstances surrounding her untimely death have raised questions and conspiracy theories amongst those who have investigated the case. She was only 36 years old at the time when she died. Everything from the government to the mafia has been alleged to explain the circumstances of Marilyn Monroe's death.

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they begin another REOCCURRING series with one of the most sensational topics; MISSING 411.  In short, Missing 411 is a catch-all term for people who go missing in National Parks all across the world. David Paulides, a self-published author on Bigfoot and Missing 411 coined the phrase, and the name has stuck with the phenomenon ever since. There are many stories within this topic and many theories within the subject as well. All of this and more will be discussed in tonight's episode!

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they finally begin to cover one of the most famous cryptids of all time; BIGFOOT.   It's a fact that for more than 400 years people have reported seeing large, hair-covered, man-like animals in the wilderness areas of North America. It is a fact that sightings of these animals continue today. Real or not, these reports are often made by people of unimpeachable character. It is a fact that, for over seventy years, people have been finding, photographing, and casting sets of very large human-shaped tracks.  These tracks continue to be found to this day. It is a fact that the cultural histories of many Native American and First Nation peoples include stories and beliefs about non-human "peoples" of the wild. Many of these descriptions bear a striking resemblance to the hairy man-like creatures reported today. These are some of the facts. There is, however, much disagreement as to what these facts mean.   Hold on to your asses, because things are about to get backwards! https://linktr.ee/backasswardspod

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they revisit one of their reoccurring series: HUMAN STAMPEDES. The history of Human Stampedes dates back to the year 80 AD, and the phenomena shows no sign of slowing down. These events are usually a result of poor safety restrictions in places that host large groups of people. Tonight we will discuss the 1807 Newgate Disaster, the Italian Hall Disaster, the Oxford Circus Panic, and the 1902 Ibrox Disaster.

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they FINALLY arrive at one of the most grand conspiracy theories of all time: THE ILLUMINATI! Justin Bieber, Jay-Z, Donald Trump, Tom Hanks, Beyonce, Alecia Keys, The entire cast of boy meets world, Nick Cage, and Barack Obama. What do they all have in common? Well, depending on who you ask, they are all working together to take over the world. The Illuminati are one of the most prolific “secret” societies of all time. But who are they really? What have they done? And are they still working to enact some evil, satanic secret goal? Let's find out, by starting at the beginning. Tonight, we will dictate the group's formation, and the role that the Illuminati could have played in the Election of 1800; one of the most influential elections in United States history!

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they officially wrap up their MONTH OF ALIENS with one of the strangest UFO cases ever; the mysterious disappearance of Frederick Valentich. The curious story of Frederick Valentich is one that is hard to wrap your mind around. It's a strange story with a strange set of circumstances and evidence, but beyond that; this case is only kind of a UFO story. But the strange circumstances surrounding Frederick's disappearance is exactly why it points to a UFO encounter. Essentially, Frederick was a pilot, and he was abducted in midair, flying an aircraft.

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they CONCLUDE their multi-part series in their MONTH OF ALIENS with one of the most important moments in UFOlogy history; The 1992 Alien Abduction Conference held at MIT. In 1992, just over 50 experts in the field of science came together at one of the country's top universities to discuss one of humanity's most complicated, emotional, frightening, and perplexing questions: Is there extraterrestrial life?  Because of the scientific nature of the conference, one might reasonably expect that a scientific conference on such a subject as people who have reported  abductions by "Little Green Men"  ought to be dismissed out of hand. And it certainly would have been, but for the credentials of those organizing the conference. This event was held for five days; June 13-17, 1992. MAIN SOURCE: "Close Encounters of the Fourth Kind: alien abduction, UFOs, and thevConference at M.I.T." by C.D.B. Bryan (Author). Published January 1, 1995.

On the evening of October 11, 1973, 42-year-old Charles Hickson and 19-year-old Calvin Parker told the Jackson County, Mississippi Sheriff's office they were fishing off a pier on the west bank of the Pascagoula River in Mississippi when they heard a whirring/whizzing sound, saw two flashing blue lights, and observed an oval shaped object 30–40 feet across and 8–10 feet high. Parker and Hickson claimed they were "conscious but paralyzed" while three "creatures" with "robotic slit-mouths" and "crab-like pincers" took them aboard the object and subjected them to an examination.

Join Kyle, Ardon, and Alec as they continue their MONTH OF ALIENS with one of the most important moments in UFOlogy history; The 1992 Alien Abduction Conference held at MIT. In 1992, just over 50 experts in the field of science came together at one of the country's top universities to discuss one of humanity's most complicated, emotional, frightening, and perplexing questions: Is there extraterrestrial life?  Because of the scientific nature of the conference, one might reasonably expect that a scientific conference on such a subject as people who have reported  abductions by "Little Green Men"  ought to be dismissed out of hand. And it certainly would have been, but for the credentials of those organizing the conference. This event was held for five days; June 13-17, 1992.
