When a police speed camera picked up invisible humanoids sprinting at 40 mph, it became just one of dozens of credible cryptid encounters reported by multiple witnesses worldwide.Support our Halloween “Overcoming the Darkness” campaign to help people with depression: https://weirddarkness.com/HOPEIN THIS EPISODE: The number of Bigfoot, Loch Ness Monster, chupacabra, Jersey Devil, and various other cryptid and creature sightings is astronomical if you really look at it. And while it's more than possible that most of these sightings are explainable by misidentification of existing wildlife, or overactive imaginations, the sheer number of sightings couldn't possibly be waved off by such simple explanations. We'll look at some true stories of people who have come across unexplainable creatures. (I Met a Monster: True Stories of Cryptid Encounters) *** Have you ever had a premonition while dreaming? Something that later came true in real life? What do you do with that information? What if you know it's not a normal dream, but a real look into the future and if you don't do something, a tragedy will take place? But then… what if your dream warning is what actually leads to a real life murder? (The Dream That Led To Murder) *** The ability to move something only with the power of your mind has been disproven by science time and time again. Telekinesis, as much as we'd like to think it's possible, has been proven not to exist. Well, except for those scientific studies that we have not heard about that say the exact opposite. (The Reality of Telekinesis) *** Thousands of people in Finland experienced a UFO sighting one night in 1966. The incident, however, was obviously not taken too seriously, as it was barely investigated despite the numerous reports. But those who lived through it say it was a night they will never forget. (Anatomy of a UFO Incident) *** Born into wealth, then orphaned, then forced to marry at the age of 14, losing all control of her money and future, Katherine Ferrers did what any teenaged girl in her position would do – she became a ruthless highway robber that terrorized local villages. (Female Highwayman: The Wicked Lady of the 1600s) *** People in Gloucester, Massachusetts were reporting very bizarre things in the summer of 1692. They heard the march of troops despite the war having ended twenty years earlier. They saw what they claimed was a human scalp and the shape of a Native America's bow when looking at the face of the moon. But that was only the appetizer of what would come that horrifying summer of paranormal activity. (The Spectre Leaguers of Gloucester) *** Seeing a deceased loved one, a soft glowing light, a warm feeling of comfort and love… people have reported seeing many of these types of things when near death. And while some might want to blame it on the brain's neurons misfiring or even rapid-firing towards the end of someone's life, how does that explain that the majority of these reports are so similar? (Deathbed Visions) *** In 1849, young Cornelius Ahern was only nineteen years old, and his chosen occupation was pickpocketing. It's likely we never would've heard about him except for the fact that he once attempted – and failed – to pick the pocket of one particular writer who would one day become famous. Charles Dickens. (The Pickpocket and Charles Dickens) *** The assassination of President John F. Kennedy has been surrounded by controversy and conspiracy theories since the day of his death. The magic bullet theory, Lee Harvey Oswald was or was not the lone gunman, was there someone in the grassy knoll, was their a government conspiracy to have Kennedy killed? But there's another mystery most documentaries and books don't cover – what about Kennedy'smissing brain?

Crusin' with Steak!  00:00:00 – Setting the Table Mike opens solo with Grim (Cruzin with Steak) filling in; quick riff on nonstop political chaos, A24 movie talk, and a promise to kick off with “Alex Jones Clips of the Week.” 00:04:34 – Alex Jones Clips of the Week A rapid, ridiculous Jones montage (soup bowls, “new world order,” live rants) sets a comedic tone before shifting back to show business. 00:09:33 – Clip Hangover & Pivot They wrap the Jones bit and pivot toward current events and legal-ish headlines that'll recur later in the show. 00:13:10 – Jones Legal/Bankruptcy Thread Brief backgrounder chatter on Jones' court/receiver saga and “summary judgment” beats, used as a springboard to talk institutional power and punishments. 00:18:07 – “Big Balls” DC Assault Sentencing Outrage over the light probation for teens who beat the Elon/DDOS staffer known as “Big Balls”; used to argue why DC brought in the Guard and why people feel justice is upside-down. 00:23:06 – Federal vs. State: Guard Deployments Debate over courts blocking/allowing federally controlled Guard in Chicago; 10th/14th Amendment talk; “guns but no bullets” analogy; airports/Patriot Act as precedent. 00:27:41 – Strategy of Tension More on how protests, laser-targeting aircraft, and courtroom moves can manufacture the very “authoritarian” outcome activists fear. 00:32:40 – “Are We Building the Police State for Them?” Continuing the theme: court fights (Ninth Circuit), Guard units staging near Chicago, and how sustained agitation invites a harder crackdown. 00:37:17 – Hollywood Money Weirdness Quick detour: Saudi cash, game/film IP, and industry desperation — a palette cleanser before the weird news block heats up. 00:42:04 – Snake-Lady Headlines A viral Indian tabloid story: husband claims his wife is a shapeshifting snake; lots of side-eye, jokes, and “sorcerer” as legal expert. 00:47:01 – How Often Do ‘Snake-Lady' Claims Happen? They try to quantify the phenomenon, conclude it's vanishingly rare, and tee up better-sourced U.S. weirdness. 00:51:58 – Carolina Pale Crawler: The Setup Introduce the Pender County, NC 911 case via the Carolina Case Files YouTube investigation; promise to play/parse the report. 00:56:39 – 911 Tape & Deputy Notes Caller sees a blood-soaked “Civil War soldier,” then hears a slam: something jumps into his truck bed and beats on the cab; later thrown off by braking. 01:01:33 – The Witness Speaks Detailed eyewitness interview: milky white face at the rear glass, 7-foot lanky thing, thrown off at ~80→35 mph braking, sprints into the trees. 01:06:02 – Is It “The Rake”? They place the entity in modern folklore: AI images, creepypasta origins (4chan era), “pale emaciated” long-limbed descriptions vs. sparse credible sightings. 01:10:41 – North Carolina Weird File Pulls older NC cases (tiny “coke-bottle man,” metallic spheres, odd odors, footprints) to show the region's high strangeness pedigree beyond “rake” lore. 01:15:28 – Area 51 Crash Gets Weirder Recap: man shot near the gate, then an aircraft crash; later, someone appears to have planted dummy bomb bodies and a mystery panel — FBI gets involved. 01:19:56 – “Where Are All the Aliens?” Tackle a new “aliens are apathetic” paper; hosts torch the hypothesis as “lazy aliens,” reiterate their own takes (undersea/hybrid programs/dark forest). 01:24:36 – AI Dog Translator University of Texas team compiling massive canine audio/video to train an AI collar; debate whether it'll translate desires or just become a grift. 01:29:37 – CERN, Portals & ‘3I Atlas' Viral claim: CERN “opened a portal” and telepathically contacted a “draconian-occupied mothership” (3I Atlas). The crew treats it as eyebrow-raising sensationalism. 01:34:34 – Remote Viewing & Reptilians More on remote-viewer assertions (slime/tech/organic craft) and competing bureaucracies — then, “okay, let's do wacky news.” 01:39:34 – Drive-By Cheeseburger Florida man allegedly weaponizes a cheeseburger during a strip-club spat; running jokes about “arsenals of food” in the car. 01:44:03 – World's Priciest Burger (Invite-Only) An $11k “by-invitation” burger with secret ingredients; hosts call it pure hype — like brand-building via billboards before making any clothes. 01:48:29 – The 50-Year Fake Blindness Scam Italian man accused of faking total blindness for decades; investigators filmed him doing everyday tasks — and now, big claw-back trouble. 01:52:31 – $680 Coffee & Sign-Offs Dubai café's record cup sparks “who'd pay that?” banter; show plugs, schedules, Battlefield talk, and the farewell roll. 01:56:48 – Outro Stinger Final seconds trail off with a goofy musical/button coda.   Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research ▀▄▀▄▀ CONTACT LINKS ▀▄▀▄▀ ► Website: http://obdmpod.com ► Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/obdmpod ► Full Videos at Odysee: https://odysee.com/@obdm:0 ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/obdmpod ► Instagram: obdmpod ► Email: ourbigdumbmouth at gmail ► RSS: http://ourbigdumbmouth.libsyn.com/rss ► iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/our-big-dumb-mouth/id261189509?mt=2  

We loved the setting and the characters here, and the challenges felt very authentic.

Welcome Back, Listeners! Amy Whittenberger brought her film “As A Rake” to Film Invasion Los Angeles 2025. This smart, creepy and rather timely film took home the Filmmakers Award for Outstanding Short Film, Horror! Unsurprisingly, the person who wrote and directed the smart, compelling, and entertaining “As A Rake” is a smart, compelling, and entertaining person.                                                                                                   I was fortunate to get a chance to meet and chat with Amy a little bit at Film Invasion L.A., but getting to have a long conversation without distractions was a lot better.                                                                Plus, I didn't get to moderate the “As A Rake” festival Q&A, meaning that when you listen to this you get to hear me pay a whole lot of compliments to Amy that I did not get the chance to share at the screening.

Which is stronger: the temptations of a shadowy wish-granter, or the love of a virtuous woman?  In The Rake's Progress, Tom's true love Anne seeks to save him from himself, seeking to unwind the schemes of the literal devil.  Yet when the dust settles, it is hard to say who has triumphed… Tom is saved, but it is a messy and piteous sort of salvation. In the only full opera composed by Igor Stravinsky, powerful supernatural elements are key to the drama, but the characters–archetypal in many respects–become believable individuals given full life by Stravinsky's shimmering, evocative, and powerful music.

This week, a rejuvenated Scott returned from vacation to sit down with his Lawfare colleagues Benjamin Wittes, Daniel Byman, and Kate Klonick to talk through some of the week's big national security news, including:“Occupational Hazards.” The Israeli government led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stated its intent to occupy Gaza City, the last segment of Gaza not under Israeli military control, and displace its civilians to “designated safe areas.” In an apparent response to both domestic and international outrage at the plan, Netanyahu later disavowed any intent to annex Gaza—even as he acknowledged calls to do so from within his coalition—and finally laid out a rough Israeli end-goal for Gaza: namely, a non-Israeli governing entity, led by neither Hamas nor the Palestinian Authority, operating under complete Israeli security control. But will this be enough to assuage these concerns? And what does it tell us about where the Gaza conflict may be headed?“The Rake.” The Trump administration has struck a deal with chip manufacturers NVIDIA and AMD, allowing them to export certain high-end (but not frontier model) chips to Chinese companies engaging in AI research, among other relevant activities, so long as they share 15% of the profits with the government. It's a move that has both Democrats and Republicans worried about major power competition with China crying foul, and lawyers raising serious doubts as to its legal viability. What appears to be driving this recent about-face? And what does it say about the trajectory of U.S. policy on AI (and China)?“The War on Drugs. But, Like, Actually.” According to the New York Times, President Trump has reportedly signed a secret order authorizing the use of military force against drug cartels his administration has designated as terrorist organizations. Exactly what sort of military action may result is not yet clear, but it already has legal and policy experts raising concerns on a number of different fronts. How big a move is this, and what actions might it yield?In object lessons, Dan, in learning more about 18th-century rivalries, recommends the game Imperial Struggle. Ben, in cheerful outrage, revealed his plans for 100lbs of blue and yellow marking chalk. Scott, in humble apology, reveled in his new-found love of pizza beans. Kate, in cheerful anticipation, expects a weekend of reverie with 14 pounds of fruit and vegetables.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

This week, a rejuvenated Scott returned from vacation to sit down with his Lawfare colleagues Benjamin Wittes, Daniel Byman, and Kate Klonick to talk through some of the week's big national security news, including:“Occupational Hazards.” The Israeli government led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stated its intent to occupy Gaza City, the last segment of Gaza not under Israeli military control, and displace its civilians to “designated safe areas.” In an apparent response to both domestic and international outrage at the plan, Netanyahu later disavowed any intent to annex Gaza—even as he acknowledged calls to do so from within his coalition—and finally laid out a rough Israeli end-goal for Gaza: namely, a non-Israeli governing entity, led by neither Hamas nor the Palestinian Authority, operating under complete Israeli security control. But will this be enough to assuage these concerns? And what does it tell us about where the Gaza conflict may be headed?“The Rake.” The Trump administration has struck a deal with chip manufacturers NVIDIA and AMD, allowing them to export certain high-end (but not frontier model) chips to Chinese companies engaging in AI research, among other relevant activities, so long as they share 15% of the profits with the government. It's a move that has both Democrats and Republicans worried about major power competition with China crying foul, and lawyers raising serious doubts as to its legal viability. What appears to be driving this recent about-face? And what does it say about the trajectory of U.S. policy on AI (and China)?“The War on Drugs. But, Like, Actually.” According to the New York Times, President Trump has reportedly signed a secret order authorizing the use of military force against drug cartels his administration has designated as terrorist organizations. Exactly what sort of military action may result is not yet clear, but it already has legal and policy experts raising concerns on a number of different fronts. How big a move is this, and what actions might it yield?In object lessons, Dan, in learning more about 18th-century rivalries, recommends the game Imperial Struggle. Ben, in cheerful outrage, revealed his plans for 100lbs of blue and yellow marking chalk. Scott, in humble apology, reveled in his new-found love of pizza beans. Kate, in cheerful anticipation, expects a weekend of reverie with 14 pounds of fruit and vegetables.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

The Dabbleverse must mourn the passing of one of a minor contributor this week as the world has lost the one and only Ski Mask. Most of the players on this sad stage will treat this news with the deference it's due, but one "Sad Chad" Zumock took to streaming early to mock and attempt to raise money from the demise of what he perceives as an enemy/threat. When will Chad make the turn towards grace and positivity that we have been promised? Could this rebranding be no more than a new theme song and the same bitter drunk with sawdust swirling around inside his empty brain? Aaron Imholte is one week away from being sentenced for his revenge porn offense, and it seems as though he may have just complicated everything even further. The court seems to be pursuing new charges against Aaron for violating conditions imposed on him by the judge, and this could end up coming back to bite him big time! ...

Jake and Rake (filling in for a vacationing Schultz) talk about the Pacers' first back to back losses in three months and if they can throw one last punch against the Thunder. Also, a look at Tyrese Haliburton's health entering a do-or-die Game 6 and Query's feelings on a terrific IndyCar show in St. Louis.
