In this episode I tell you two stories of the ways spirits and spirituality have had a very real effect on people and society. In the first story, I tell you how two inventions, the automobile and the Ouija board, once came together, causing a town in California to go a little mad. In story two I tell you about a remarkable young girl, who displayed some strange religious symbols.

667. Part 2 of our conversation with Kathleen Kass Byrd about her book on the history of Natchitoches. "Kathleen M. Byrd's Natchitoches, Louisiana, 1803–1840 is an examination of one French Creole community as it transitioned from a fur-trading and agricultural settlement under the control of Spain to a critical American outpost on the Spanish/American frontier and finally to a commercial hub and jumping-off point for those heading west. Byrd focuses on historic events in the area and the long-term French Creole residents as they adapted to the American presence. She also examines the effect of the arrival of the Americans, with their Indian trading house and Indian agency, on Native groups and considers how members of the enslaved population took advantage of opportunities for escape presented by a new international border. Byrd shows how the arrival of Americans forever changed Natchitoches, transforming it from a sleepy frontier settlement into a regional commercial center and staging point for pioneers heading into Texas" (LSU Pr.). Kathleen M. Byrd (nicknamed Kass) is a distinguished anthropologist, archaeologist, and historian specializing in the history and prehistory of Louisiana, particularly the Natchitoches region. A native of Connecticut, she earned her B.A. from Marquette University, an M.A. from LSU (focusing on coastal subsistence patterns), and a Ph.D. from the University of Florida. She served as Louisiana's state archaeologist for 15 years before joining Northwestern State University (NSU) in Natchitoches in 1994, where she later became director of the School of Social Sciences for 12 years until her retirement.

Frosty's heritage, in great measure, came from his renegade father. Incapable of fearing anything, he was sufficient unto himself and he'd known that from the first day he'd opened his eyes and looked around the shed. There was not and never would be a situation with which he could not cope or a foe from whom he would run in panic. His self-confidence was almost as vast as his curiosity. He would stand alone, or with kindred spirits. Never would he place himself at the mercy of, or pay homage to, one who was not kindred. He liked the woman. She was unfailingly kind and gentle. She knew exactly how to pet him and she ' a small point ' brought his food. But he would not, as the gray kittens did, unbend so far as to met her at the door. She was not his superior.

After spending the past three weeks in 1995's Anthology universe, the Untitled Beatles Podcast needs a break. So this week… we head WAY BACK… to 1987. That's right. At long last, by popular demand—LLGH! Cheers, big ears!—Tony and T.J. delve into George Harrison's smash-hit solo record, “Cloud Nine”, which T.J. SHANOFF LOVED LONG BEFORE ALL YOU BANDWAGON B*S.

Some say the “Sgt. Pepper”, post-touring era is the peak of The Beatles recorded music. Others prefer Korn. For those who are slightly more into The Beatles, Tony, T.J. and Producer Casey deep dish Episode 6 of “The Beatles Anthology”. This has always been one of the most fertile and astonishing chapters in Beatles history, but we can all be thankful that Disney truncated it by 15 minutes for those of us in a rush. Beep beep, toot toot, no time for the “For No One” bridge, damn it! And, sure! The UBP3zteetles (you try it, tough guy) talk “Anthology” 6 in great detail, but still find time to probe the throbbing questions, like:
Classic Edgar Allan Poe horror stories—gothic terror, madness, murder, and psychological dread—all in one chilling anthology. If you love classic horror, dark literature, and Victorian-era nightmares, this Poe compilation is built for you: guilt that won't stay buried, revenge sealed behind bricks, obsession that rots the mind, and survival-horror fear sharpened to a razor's edge.Inside this episode:• The Black Cat — a confession soaked in alcohol-fueled violence, guilt, and the uncanny feeling that something is watching from the dark.• Morella — grief, identity, and a haunting that crawls into the heart of a family and refuses to let go.• The Cask of Amontillado — Poe's coldest revenge tale: a smiling invitation, a wine cellar, and a final brick laid in silence.• The Pit and the Pendulum — pure claustrophobic survival horror: imprisonment, panic, and the merciless countdown of the pendulum's arc.• Berenice — obsession turns grotesque as love, memory, and fixation spiral into something unspeakable.Whether you're here for classic ghost stories, murder confessions, or psychological horror that still hits hard today—press play, turn the lights down, and let Poe do what he does best.

Please enjoy two parents and their 14- and 11-year-old children reflecting upon what we learned and liked about the Beatles, including who loves John, Paul, George, and Ringo the most.

[It's the be]ginning of Lent, and all good Catholics eat and drink freely of what they please, and, in fact, do what they please, in order that they may be the better able to keep sober and quiet during the coming fast. It has been said that a Scotchman has not seen the world until he has seen Edinburgh; and I think that I may say that an American has not seen the United States until he has seen Mardi-Gras in New Orleans. I posted off up town yesterday morning as soon as the boat landed, in blissful ignorance of the great day. At the corner of Good-Children and Tchoupitoulas streets, I beheld an apparition! — and my first impulse was to dodge behind a lamp-post. It was a woman — a hay-stack of curtain calico, ten feet high — sweeping majestically down the middle of the street (for what pavement in the world could accommodate hoops of such vast proportions?) Next I saw a girl of eighteen, mounted on a fine horse, and dressed as a Spanish Cavalier, with long rapier, flowing curls, blue satin doublet and half-breeches, trimmed with broad white lace — (the balance of her dainty legs cased in flesh-colored silk stockings) — white kid gloves — and a nodding crimson feather in the coquettishest little cap in the world. She removed said cap and bowed low to me, and nothing loath, I bowed in return — but I could n't help murmuring, “By the beard of the Prophet, Miss, but you've mistaken your man this time — for I never saw your silk mask before, — nor the balance of your costume, either, for that matter.” And then I saw a hundred men, women and children in fine, fancy, splendid, ugly, coarse, ridiculous, grotesque, laughable costumes, and the truth flashed upon me — “This is Mardi-Gras!” This week in Louisiana history. February 13, 1899. Lowest temperature ever recorded in Louisiana, Minden, -16°F.This week in New Orleans history. First Rex Parade. February 13, 1872 Lewis J. Salomon reigned as Rex during the organization's first parade on February 13, 1872. The theme was "Triumphal Entry". The official anthem of Rex, "If Ever I Cease to Love", was a hit song of the early 1870's era from a musical comedy named "Bluebeard".

Real Beatlefans have been saying it on the DL (#JimmyButler) for years: "Who the hell needs Rubber Soul?" Certainly not “The Beatles Anthology”, which puts nearly as much emphasis on the 1965 classic as they do “The Beatles At The Hollywood Bowl” (Pre-Ron Howard Edition). OK so maybe it's not that bad, but c'mon Apple, it's RUBBER SOUL! (#HeyHey #Rip) For better AND worse, Beatles Anthology 5 is much like its predecessors; chock full of incredibly remastered footage and audio; while missing certain key elements for time or perhaps simply to please a mouse. (SFX: Buzzer) Sorry! “The Mouse”! Come join Tony, T.J., and Casey as we mansplain how men mansplain Beatles stuff, and since the rule of two mansplainings cancels things out, we'll ponder other life quandaries, like:

Text usFor centuries, ships and planes have vanished at sea, leaving behind no wreckage, no bodies, and no clear answers. Over time, those disappearances stopped being treated as tragic accidents and started becoming something else entirely.In this episode of Anthology of Horror, Spring Heeled Jack takes a deep dive into the Bermuda Triangle—from humanity's earliest relationship with the ocean, to ghost ships, famous vanishings like Flight 19 and the USS Cyclops, and the long list of theories that followed. Ancient civilizations, aliens, time distortions, cryptids, magnetic anomalies—everything gets examined.But this isn't the TV-special version of the story.This episode breaks down how and why the Bermuda Triangle myth was created, how real events were reshaped over time, and why busy shipping routes, weather systems, ocean currents, human decision-making, and simple math explain far more than any supernatural force ever could.Along the way, Spring Heeled Jack offers his own theory—one that may take the wind out of a few sails, but still leaves the ocean just as dangerous, indifferent, and fascinating as it's always been.Episode CreditsHost & Writer:Spring Heeled Jack (Anthony Landis)Producer:Mickie EberzMusic:All music provided by The EmpressFind their music on SpotifyFeatured Track:“Siren's Promise” — The EmpressSpecial Shout-Out:Stories in the Cemetery podcastFollow & Vote on Future Episodes:Instagram — @dukelandis17Podcast:Anthology of HorrorSupport the showDemented Darkness https://open.spotify.com/show/2ausD083OiTmVycCKpapQ8Dark Side of the Nerd https://open.spotify.com/show/6cwN3N3iifSVbddNRsXRTuFoxhound43 https://rumble.com/user/Foxhound43

For at least nine months in the twelve, the people of this rare old town live out of doors nearly all the waking hours of the twenty-four. For the remaining three months of the year, December, January, and February, they delude themselves into the notion that they are having a winter, when they gather around a winter-time hearth and listen to imaginary wind-roarings in the chimney, and see through the panes fictitious and spectral snow-storms, and dream that they are housed so snug and warm. But when the day comes the sun is shining and there is no trace of white on the ground, and the grass is green and there are industrious buds breaking out of cover, and the earth is sleeping very lightly. Open-eyed, the youngsters sit by these December firesides and listen to their elders tell of the snow-storms in the long ago that came so very, very deep, when snowballs were flying in the streets, and the earth was white, and the 'banquettes,' or sidewalks, were ankle-deep in slush. This week in Louisiana history. February 7, 2010. New Orleans Saints win their very first Super Bowl and finish the year at 14-3. This week in New Orleans history.

Wait no more, it's Anthology 4! It's better streaming, and also way worse! It's shorter, which is nice, and also truly stupid. Official Beatles history is being re-written forever, a travesty that's never sounded or looked so good. Yes, if you've also found yourself stroking out at the tightening and edits of “Beatles Anthology - 2025”, you've got some pals at the Untitled Beatles Podcast. We've never been more grateful for such glorious Beatles product, and also, hey Calderstone, WTF MY DUDES??? It's quite the conundrum as the fellas deep dish the 4th installment of this generation's “Frozen 2”, now with Bernard Purdie as Josh Gad. They also ask the tough questions that CBS won't allow their remaining journalists to even consider, like:

Missed-Fits: A Calendar of Fools Anthology is a celebration of stories that don't fit as flash, short story, or novella lengths, yet are awesome stories. In the world of short fiction publishing, word count often dictates destiny: flash fiction thrives under 1,000 words, while traditional short stories typically land between 3,000 and 7,500 words to find welcoming markets. But what about the tales that fall into the awkward in-between—longer than flash yet too brief for many standard slots? These "misfit" stories, intriguing, powerful, and fully realized, often get overlooked simply because they don't match the expected lengths. Calendar of Fools, the small press founded by Writers of the Future alumni, aims to change that. Following the success of their previous anthology, Intergalactic Rejects—which gave rejected gems a second life—Missed-Fits provides a dedicated home for these literary oddities. This collection gathers brief, compelling visions from award-winning authors and emerging voices alike. The stories are fast reads that explore themes of incompatibility, things that are missing or out of place, and the beauty of narratives that don't quite belong. They prove that great storytelling isn't confined by arbitrary categories. This podcast episode announces the Kickstarter for this project. If it succeeds, an open call will invite submissions of these awkward-length tales to join with stories from established anchor writers. For readers, Missed-Fits offers a treasury of unique, otherwise-unpublished stories that slip between the cracks of conventional markets but deserve to be discovered. For writers, it's an invitation to embrace the unconventional lengths and let the story dictate its own size. Learn more by visiting www.kickstarter.com/projects/calend…fools-anthology

"The Expedition of Hernando de Soto" was written by his companion Luis Hernandez de Biedma. "When we arrived, the queen sent us one of her nieces, in a litter carried by Indians. She sent the governor a present of a necklace of beads, canoes to cross the river with, and gave us half the village to lodge in. The governor opened a large temple built in the woods, in which was buried the chiefs of the country, and took from it a quantity of pearls, amounting to six or seven arrobes, which were spoiled by being buried in the ground. We dug up two Spanish axes, a chaplet of wild olive seed, and some small beads, resembling those we had brought from Spain for the purpose of trading with the Indians. We conjectured they had obtained these things by trading with the companions of Vasquez de Ayllon. The Indians told us the sea was only about thirty leagues distant." This week in Louisiana history.

Dorothy Day wrote the article, “Florence Is a Communist.” “Do you know what Communism is, Florence?” “Yes, I am a Communist,” Florence stated, and afterward when we were alone together in the kitchen she went into more details about her beliefs. “Communism,” she stated, “is to help the poor.” So the poor of the small town of Jacobi where she came from, were quite ready to be enrolled in the ranks of the Communists. There were about eighty Negroes signed up with the Communist group in her little town in Louisiana, and in the neighboring towns of Lettsworth, Lagonia, Batchelor, Torras and Susport there were groups of from forty to sixty in each town. They were not doing anything much at present, not even meeting, she explained, since the young Communist organizer who had been keeping contact with them had been jailed and run out of town. He had been transferred by the Party to another state, so there the matter was halted. This week in Louisiana history. January 23, 1680. Bienville born in Montreal, Canada, 12 of 14 children.

This is a short preview of a patreon bonus episode, to hear the full thing and last week's patreon episode "Grand Canyon Orbs" you can sign up for the Otherworld Patreon In this episode our producer Haley Pehrson interviews two people with short stories that both take place in antique stores. The first one may not necessarily be paranormal... but it's an extreme case of coincidence with several layers of synchronicities that puts it into a category of its own. The second story comes from a man who was overcome by a horrible sense of dread after encountering a specific object while browsing and antique store.

Quotes from Kyle: “The interview process can be a kind of empathy drug.” “Write as if you are already dead.” “The ideas that won't go away are the ones worth chasing.” “I wanted to write the book that only I could write.” “Most people live their lives being rewarded for having the right answer, not the right question.” “Books are like malaria nets—people use them in ways you never expect.” “If I tell you to interview your parents, I have to show you what happened when I did.” “Marketing is an act of consideration and generosity.” “A lot of how-to books could be a one-page PDF. I refused to do that.” “Live events aren't about selling books. They're about making you feel like a winner as an author.” “The best advertisers I know create a mood shift immediately.” “Make fun of yourself. That's how you earn the right to critique others.”
