    Did a Bigfoot Just Howl Outside My Window?

    A Bigfoot on my property? I have mixed feelings about that for certain. I recorded something really weird in July from the porch of my cabin. Listen and let me know what you think. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

    This Isn't Your Normal Summer Camp Ghost.

    When you go out looking for ghosts you had best have a plan if one shows up. This is what a few camp counselor friends of mine and I had happened when we snuck back into our summer camp in-between sessions. I suggest never trying to communicate with what you don't want to communicate with. Or, at least ask for nice spirits...and be polite. (So I saved an audio dub that I made because I accidentally used one of the women's real names. It sounds much more funny to keep the obvious dubbed version the way it is). --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

    Living on a Cursed Road Part Two

    Seriously, if you have neighbors like this light your house on fire and run away. Super creepy and weird. There was just a whole bunch of bad luck going around that road. Glad we are nowhere near it now. Just wait until you hear the ghost stories from there. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

    The Night I Became a Bigfoot Junkie

    This is the night that made me look differently at the darkness of the forest. I recorded some interesting possible Bigfoot vocalizations and you get to hear it almost exactly as it happened. I edited the audio to make it easier to hear and cut out the parts where it was obvious that I was really, really scared. Thank you for listening and feel free to send me any cool audio you collect. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

    Living on a Cursed Road Part One.

    Creepy, scary, and weird coincidences don't just happen in some places...some places seem to make these things happen. I used to live on a road that seemed cursed. The number of suicides, murders, and deaths were a bit too high to just be chalkedup to happenstance. This is part one...seriously, part two will be even creepier. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

    Two Guns for Survival...How Do I Choose?

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 26, 2022 18:21


    This one is sure to trigger preppers. (See what I did there?) You have to consider what you need the weapons for and how effective they will be for that purpose. Guns are tools but require training, familiarity, and respect. But why not talk about which ones might suit your needs in the event of a crisis?

    (Spoiler) The answer is everyone should go on a Bigfoot Expedition at least once. They are a great deal of fun. Today I will discuss why I went on my first expedition as well as what you might expect to see if you head into the woods with a bunch of other weird people looking for big hairy critters.

    Ghosts May Not Be Real But They Sure Scare the Crap Out of Me.

    This is Episode Two of The Next Weird Thing and we are talking about experiences with ghosts. I don't like the idea of ghosts because you probably can't just run away from one. But talking about them is certainly fun. Here are a few of my experiences. Enjoy. Oh, I am using a different microphone and I think it sounds better. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

    Why Do I Teach a Class on Cryptozoology?

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 12, 2022 16:39


    This is my first test podcast of The Next Weird Thing. My goal is to provide interesting and weird information that might one day be useful for listeners. Today we will discuss using cryptozoology to help students understand bias, logical fallacies, and how to form logical arguments. The end result will be better thinkers, writers, and citizens. Yes, lofty goals for sure but why not? Any way we can trick or induce people to learn is fine by me. Thank you for listening and have a great day. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
