Listeners of The What Cast that love the show mention: matteo,The The What Cast podcast is an absolute gem in the realm of paranormal and conspiracy theory podcasts. I stumbled upon this show by chance and have been hooked ever since. The hosts, Mike and Mateo, bring a unique and entertaining perspective to the weirdest abnormalities out there. Whether it's aliens, cryptids, demons, or historic creepiness, they cover a diverse range of topics that always keep me on my toes.
What sets The What Cast apart from other podcasts in this genre is the perfect balance between humor and factual information. While they approach each topic with a lighthearted and often irreverent tone, they still manage to deliver well-researched facts and thought-provoking theories. They don't blindly accept everything as fact, but instead question what is true and what might just be a wild speculation. This critical thinking adds another layer of depth to their discussions.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the chemistry between Mike and Mateo. Their banter feels like you're sitting around with your friends, discussing creepy stories or engaging in harmless tomfoolery. They effortlessly blend dark senses of humor with witty ramblings that will leave you smiling or even laughing out loud. Their storytelling voices are soothing yet engaging, making it easy to listen for hours on end.
The only downside I can think of is that sometimes they go off on tangents that veer slightly away from the main topic at hand. While these tangents can be entertaining in their own right, they might not appeal to listeners who prefer a more focused discussion. However, for those who enjoy unpredictable twists and turns in conversation, these tangents only add to the charm of the podcast.
In conclusion, The What Cast podcast is an absolute must-listen for anyone interested in paranormal phenomena or conspiracy theories. With its mix of humor, well-researched information, and genuine curiosity about the unknown, it offers a truly unique and enjoyable listening experience. Mike and Mateo's dedication to the show is evident in each episode, and their ability to both creep you out and make you laugh is a testament to their talent as hosts. I highly recommend giving this podcast a listen - it won't disappoint!

Well we at long last got to out 2nd episode of Dr. Karla Turner, legendary Alien Abduction researcher. This episode he breaks down the events from her first book, Into The Fringe. Mike read it and lets just say, he was not too happy about it. Is there more to Dr. Turners story than alien abduction? Come get shadow banned with us as we go over what she really uncovered...https://youtu.be/4Cbxhk2lhdc?si=k5wgsfsMObHWZU2Ehttps://open.spotify.com/show/6kKs4pmpW49q65lmn96D3aThanks for listening!www.TheWhatCast.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatcast

Guys! There's a new UFO documentary out! Mike and Mateo watched it, it would be neat if you guys did, too! It's called The Alien Perspective. After you wrap that up, come back here and give this episode a listen. We kind of break it down and give our thoughts and opinions. Later on, we do a deeper dive into one of the cases referenced in the documentary, the Amy Rylance abduction.thanks for listening!ADDS:This is a long one. Its guna be jam packed with adds.

Over the past few years, it has seemed like we may be heading toward some sort of official disclosure. UAPs and the talk of alien bodies have moved away from the fringe to getting mainstream coverage. Is it strange, then, that we are seeing history budget cuts to the FAA as well as budget cuts for National Parks Service? Are these “Budget cuts” an attempt to cover-up possible evidence or witnesses to paranormal activity? This week we discuss the Federal budget cuts and put on our Alex Jones masks to wildly speculate about the true purpose of these cuts. We also get into discussion about the Bennington triangle disappearances, and Bigfoot is still a fairy ghost alien.thanks for listening!www.thewhatcasters.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatcast
Ya know, its something we should have covered years ago. Luckily, Mike has gather a bunch of cool info on the phenomena of Black Hounds. Are they bringers of death? Are they protectors?

You ever go to one of those Sportsman shows were there are animal heads on the walls and all sorts of weird meat and jerky to sample? What if there was a secret, deep underground convention for only the most extreme hunters and food connoisseurs? The convention is filled with patrons with only the most sophisticated pallets, adventurous appetites, or sub-par IQs; those who are no longer satisfied with a meager burger, or average steak. I'm referring to a very specific group of individuals. I'm referring to The Cryptid Eaters. This week we take a look at people that have allegedly dined on the flesh of the most mysterious beasts this world has to offer. Would you taste of the meat of the mighty Mokele Mbembe? Are you brave enough to snake on the cooked leg of the dreaded J'ba Fofi? In these circles, it's eat or be eaten. Which side will you be on?thank you for listening!www.thewhatcast.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatccast
In 1993, a group of paranormal researchers set out to conduct a 5 year experiment to find definitive, reproducible evidence of life after death.They did. But they didn't make contact with ghosts alone……www.thewhatcast.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatcasthttps://youtu.be/oqNgM6oZdgI?si=DfA-SMwLjpxguTPP
This week we dug into the bag of old Blue Book cases and dug out an oldie but a goodie. With some of the more outlandish drone reports that have been coming out of New Jersey, we noticed that there were some similarities to things that happened in Levelland, Texas in 1957. Is it possible that the Levelland events were a test run for what we are seeing in NJ? Who, or WHAT is behind this nonsense?thanks for listening!www.thewhtacast.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatcast

By this point, unless you're living under a rock, you should be aware of the drone situation in New Jersey. A fleet of unidentified aerial vehicles have been reported in the skies over New Jersey for weeks, and it seems that now there are similar reports popping up in various areas all over the country.Just what the Hell is going on? Is it a foreign adversary? US Military operations? Aliens? Hollow Earth Deros? This week, Mike and Mateo made their first attempt at recording a show with a live audience commenting and asking questions. thanks for listening!www.thewhatcast.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatcast

You know how in most cop movies, there are always 2 partners that go out an get involved in shenanigans, and solve crimes? What if that sort of thing happened in paranormal investigations? Maybe instead of 2 humans, you get 1 human and his spirit partner. Well, folks, apparently that is an actuality. For those that missed it, Netflix has been running new episodes of Unsolved Mysteries for 5 seasons now. The latest was just released a few weeks ago, and one of the episodes centers on a gentleman named Dom and his spirit partner “Becky”. We decided to focus on this episode, in particular, and discuss the tests that Dom had to undergo to prove that “Becky” was real, and whether or not “Becky” is what she claims to be. www.patreon.com/thewhatcastfor add free episodes, monthly hang outs, art prints and The Sticker Club!www.thewhatcast.comthank you for listening!

We've been at this thing for over 11 years. Absolutely bonkers, isn't it? We've come a long way in that time, both from a quality standpoint, as well as the evolution of our beliefs in the paranormal. Today, we decided to take a look back on where we started and have a little chat about how our beliefs have changed over the years, and what markers lead us down that road.thanks for listening!www.thewhatcast.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatcast
Hey everyone! Happy Friday! Join us as we talk about something we kinda tried to avoid. Conspiracy theories. Just for a laugh we sat down and discussed 3 conspiracy theories: one we think are total BS. One we believe is absolutely real and one that we have come up with ourselves that we totally believe to be true. Join us flat earthers! We dare you not to piss your pants in rage!thank you for listening!Be safe!
This mothman guy…He just won't go away, and apparently has a penchant for travel. We've talked about the OG Mothman so many times, but we've also discussed the more recent Lake Michigan mothman sightings. Is this the same creature? How did Mothman travel from West Virginia to Chicago and is it a shapeshifter? This week we take a look at the last episode of the latest season of Unsolved Mysteries and discuss the Chicago Mothman, as well as other flying humanoid sightings. Seriously though, is Mothman a shapeshifter? I NEED TO KNOW!www.thewhatcast.compatreon.com/thewhatcast
Hey there guys. Last week was a pretty eventful week for the Dastardly Duo. Mateo was able to hit up a comic book convention in his neck of the woods. Meanwhile…across the continent, Mike was attending a Sci-Fi Horror convention. Lots of doings a-transpirin'! Since we both had great experiences, we though we'd share them with you in our double length convention extravaganza! Don't worry, we'll get back to the weird stories about ass goblins and moon fairies next week.thanks for listening!!!Sorry for all the adds.

The 60's were a wild time, or so I've heard. In addition to the obvious hippie/Vietnam stuff, we also get some of the best alien encounter stories. This week we discussed a pair of encounters from 1967 involving strange beings that were small in stature, but not your classic grays or “little green men”. thanks for listening!www.patreon.com/thewhatcastwww.thewhatcast.com
Hey. You guys ever heard of a little band called R.E.M.? They had a song that came out in the 90's called What's the Frequency Kenneth. Not many people know the story behind the song's title and even fewer are aware of the strange turn this story took after the song was recorded.

Goblins seem to be popping up all over the place. It's like Middle Earth in the modern world! In parts of Zimbabwe, it seems that the little green bastards are getting particularly bold in their attacks. We have recent stories of schools and a police station getting shut down due to goblin infestations. After doing a bit of digging, it seems that this is nothing new. Is Zimbabwe actually Mordor?! Should we start worrying about a dark tower and flaming eye?thanks for listening!www.thewhatcast.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatcast
What do giant living bird pinatas and alien pranksters have in common? Not much, to be honest, other than that's what we are talking about this week.Listen in amazement as Mateo brings us the strange tale of a man that was accosted by a polite, yet persistent wooden bird creature thing.

For any long-time fans of Unsolved Mysteries, you're likely familiar with the Allagash Abduction case. It's a classic case that we haven't covered yet, so we wanted to delve into it a bit. While the original presentation by Unsolved Mysteries was pretty compelling, it seems there have been some red flags raised in the years since. What do you think? Is this an authentic recollection of a genuine alien abduction, or was this merely the dilussions of a traumatized brain, bolstered by poor hypnosis?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dM2DFl1FJpswww.thewhatcasters.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatcast

You guys have heard of the Abominable Snowman, right? The legendary Yeti of the Himalaya's. The Bumble that bounces (Bumbles always bounce!). What if I told you that there is an underwater Abominable Snowman, but it has nothing to do with snow or they Yeti? To be completely honest, there is absolutely nothing about this underwater cryptid that even resembles the lovable bumble. Why was it even called an aquatic Abominable Snowman anydamnway?! Mateo offers a possible explanation, but I don't know if Mike is buying it.https://www.kronosrising.com/carnival-cruise-monster-super-predator/
As promised, we've returned for the 2nd episode this week! A day or 2 after we recorded the previous episode, information started to come out regarding a declassified proposal for another Government UAP program called Kona Blue. There was a lot of things that overlapped with our previous episode, so we decided to get right back on the What Cast horse and talk about it. So this is us discussing Kona Blue, Government projects, and veering off into other digressions. Thanks for checking us out!
Yes, after almost a century, we've finally returned! Not only that, but we're gonna put out 2 episodes this week! For the first of this 2-episode extravaganza, we begin with a nice looooooooooong detour discussing comic books. I promise you, this is NOT a comic book episode. We get into the weird shit, but it's been a while. We had to take a minute (or 86) and nerd out. Once we get that out of our systems, Mike gets into some recent UFO sightings, a strange ocean anomaly, and the testimony from an anonymous whistleblower talking about what he learned during his time on a UFO crash retrieval team. The second part will be the second part and I'll tell you about that when we get there. Simmer down and enjoy the ride, we've got a lot to discuss!Alien Ocean Particles:https://youtu.be/VNHU-fsABJM?si=o1UVfKIypLrYwhTPMikes going on vacation:https://suno.com/song/81b35793-155a-4526-9310-9fa2e220a630
Hey folks! This week we cover the mystirois raido signal Wolf 424 who some claim was actually a raido transmition from a race of aliens called the Umites. Whaat? Dont believe us?What if there were reports from the aliens? Phone calls? Letters?Yeah?! HOW ABOUT THAT?!Thank you for listening and stay safe.Just a heads up, Mateo has more medical stuff planed for next month so we may slow down a little but if you miss our half baked, dorky voices please consider checking out or Patreon where we have a ton of exclucove episodes to listen too!https://www.patreon.com/TheWhatCast
It's well documented that we love wizards on this show. We also have a great fondness for goblins. It's time we combine these two loves and get down to talking about the Wizard of Yester and the Goblin Hall? Was the Yester Castle the Scottish equivalent to Solomon's Temple? Was powerful magic used to force demonic entities to build a fortress for their master? Is there an army of ghostly goblins that still haunt the chamber under the ruins of the old Castle?Yes.Yes. Probably.Thanks for listening! We know we are draggin ass. Lots of doc appointments. Results were worse than we thought. We will right as rain soon.

Alien cover-ups are common place in our area of interest. Many conspiracy theories are based off of this assumption. What if this sort of cover-up is not just limited to aliens and UFOs? What if the government is actively covering up violent attacks perpetrated by a group of bloodthirsty monsters? This week we take a look at a few cases involving fatal attacks by an unknown animal or animals…or perhaps these unfortunate souls met their end at the clawed hands of a dogman!Thanks for listening!!www.thewhatcasters.com
Hey folks!This week we ponder the possibility of a real life seam monster attack. Sure, a lot of sea monster encounters ARE considered attacks but in actuality, some people got a good scare.We are talking an actual attack.Were people died.5 go in the water and one comes out.Could this be real? Did someone kill their friends at sea?You be the judge.www.thewhatcast.comwww.patreon.com/thewhatcastwww.ko-fi.com/thewhatcast
Remember that movie The Blob? The one with the alien blob monster that absorbs and eats people, growing larger after every meal? Sure it might seem schlocky by today's standards, but at the core, it is a genuinely terrifying idea. With that in mind, this week we take a look at a few different sightings of gargantuan underwater blobs that display some rather odd behavior and abilities. Are these giant jellyfish? Shoggoths? Alien blob monsters? Or maybe just made up sea stories. Mariners are known for the penchant for embellishment, afterall.https://www.TheWhatCast.comhttps://www.patreon.com/TheWhatCasthttps://www.TheWhatCast.comhttps://www.ko-fi.com/thewhatcast
It's cold. Everything is freezing and dead and it sucks. You know what would make winter suck even worse? Friggin' snow monsters, that's what!

It's always a great time talking about urban legends. There always seems to be an air of nostalgia whenever these tales come up.

In the past, we've talked at length about the Men in Black and the scare tactics they employ in order to silence UFO witnesses. This week, we decided to take a look at one of the more bizarre cases of MIB contact. Was John Stuart getting so close to the truth in his research on UFOs that the Men in Black had to silence him? Or, maybe he was a man so overcome with guilt that he had a mental breakdown resulting in an imagined reality.thanks for listening!www.TheWhatCast.compatreon.com/thewhatcastwww.ko-fi.com/thewhatcastThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5449426/advertisement
The dinosaurs are still alive, people! Or maybe they are ghosts…Could be time travelers, I suppose. Listen. No matter what way you slice it, there are reports of dinosaurs among us on the planet. Not just dinosaurs, but all manner of prehistoric beasties. You want a T-Rex? Getchoo some! You want a gigantor constrictor snake? You got it, buddy!

No one likes public transport…Well almost no one. There is that weird creepy guy that leers at passengers from the back of the bus. I wonder what he is always fiddling around with in his pocket. He seems to be having a good time, must be some sort of fidget toy or something. I digress… MOST people do not enjoy public transportation, but you know what? I could always be worse! This week we take a look at some weirdness that was witnessed/experienced on various forms of public transportation. We talk about the recent bigfoot footage that was filmed from a train, haunted subway lines, a strange occurrence on a boat, and a bus detour that leads to spooky cult activity.

If you had a loved one that passed on, and you thought there was a risk that the corpse would become possessed by some sort of evil spirit, how would you deal with that? On this week's episode we discuss a bunch of graves that were found in Poland, dating back to the 16th century, that seem to have measures in place to prevent the dead from rising. Now I'm concerned, since these graves have been unearthed, we may be faced with a Deadite plague in the near future.
