“How many people do you think go into a bar and say: ‘I'd like an Everclear on the rocks, please…'?” Looking back, 1997 seems utterly surreal… To put things in perspective, 1997 marked the debut of South Park on Comedy Central, the release of Radiohead's breakthrough, third album, OK Computer, the beginning of the final season of Seinfeld, and (of course) the arrival of Metallica's conclusion to The Loads with Reload. Perhaps one of the most surreal (and tragic) parts of 1997 was the time a bunch of children in a band called Hanson went viral with a song called MMMBop while a lesser known, criminally underrated, and FAR SUPERIOR band (with an extremely similar sounding name, consisting of former members of Helmet & Quicksand) called Handsome released their one (and only) album, Handsome, earlier that same year. Sometimes life is just too weird and utterly unfair… It's time to discover the power of “a better magical piece of paper” that is not a college degree and understand that whenever someone uses the term ‘dating' that “we know exactly what they're talking about”. Find out who “stayed metal the whole time”, who was “chuggin' the D”, and who wasn't going to metal shows “unless it was Metallica” when you JOIN US as we go back in time almost 30 years with THE CLASS OF 1997.

We go pond jumping this week and head to the Isle of Wight for one of the strangest paranormal encounters ever reported: All Colours Sam, better known as the Sandown Clown.In 1973, two children claimed they met a nearly seven-foot-tall, three-fingered, three-toed, ghost-like humanoid living in a metal hut near Sandown Airport. Normal British stuff, we are pretty sure. Sam wore a pointed yellow hat, spoke through a strange device, said he was “a ghost in an odd sort of way,” and somehow managed to make eating berries look like advanced alien surgery.So what was All Colours Sam? An extraterrestrial? A robot? A folkloric entity? A man in a costume? Or one of the most bizarre childhood stories ever to escape into UFO and cryptid lore?We break down the full encounter, the witnesses, the weirdest details, what believers think happened, what skeptics say, and why the Sandown Clown mystery is still confusing paranormal researchers more than 50 years later this week on Hysteria 51.SourcesBUFORA Journal, Vol. 6, No. 5, Jan/Feb 1978 – “Ghost or Spaceman '73?”Internet ArchiveThink Anomalous – The Sandown “Ghost Clown,” 1973Think AnomalousOnTheWight – All Colours Sam, aka Sam the Sandown ClownOnTheWightOnTheWight – The Sandown Clown: Exploring Sam, the Isle of Wight's Surreal 1973 EncounterOnTheWightBBC Radio 4 / Uncanny – Cold Cases: Case 5: The Sandown ClownApple PodcastsOnTheWight – BBC Sounds and Cease to Exist Podcasts Turn Their Attention to All Colours SamOnTheWightSpooky Isles – The Sandown Clown: Fact or Fiction?Spooky IslesWeird Darkness – The Sandown Clown: All Colours Sam and the Isle of WightWeird DarknessIsland Echo – The Sandown Clown Returns to the Isle of WightIsland EchoBedtime Stories – The Sandown ClownThe Sandown ClownShrouded Hand – The Sandown Clown Incident: A Creepy Encounter With an Unknown EntityThe Sandown Clown IncidentEmail your Contest Entries to:ForthHandmedia@gmail.comEmail us your favorite WEIRD news stories:weird@hysteria51.comSupport the ShowGet exclusive content & perks as well as an ad and sponsor free experience at https://www.patreon.com/Hysteria51 from just $1ShopBe the Best Dressed at your Cult Meeting!https://www.teepublic.com/stores/hysteria51?ref_id=9022See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Marketing Hustle, Brand of the Match. Champion of OOH. Brand marketers have always argued about the best campaigns down the pub. Now Lottie Unwin and co-host Joel Bjarni Marlinarson are doing it properly, with red cards, yellow cards and a full-time whistle.Out of home covers billboards, installations and anything you see out and about. But in the age of social, OOH is now curated to travel well beyond its physical location. In the second episode of Brand of the Match, Lottie and Joel put out of home under the microscope. It's a channel as old as advertising itself, from Surreal's LinkedIn-native billboard mockups and Canva's genuine "make the logo bigger" takeover of Waterloo station, to TfL and Heineken Zero's confusing Bakerloo Line rebrand, to Rhode's headline-grabbing pimple patches at Coachella. Along the way they cover Pip & Nut's decade of the same squirrel, Lime Bike's reactive dig at London's tube strikes, Turo's shot at stealing Zipcar's audience, and Nike's provocative takeover of the London Marathon.By full time, there's only one winner. Do you agree with the result? Tell us in the comments.This episode is brought to you by Stickybeak, rapid consumer research built for FMCG marketers.

In another installment of The People's Game on Jacobin Radio, co-hosts Alan Minsky and Meleiza Figueroa speak with eminent sports historian David Goldblatt, who lays out all the ways in which, despite the corruption and controversy surrounding FIFA's oligarchic nature and Trump's bumbling attempt to put his thumb on the scale, the World Cup — and the game itself — will always belong to the people. Josh Pechtalt, a longtime union activist in Los Angeles, also joins us live on air to talk about America's previous pastime, baseball, and a campaign urging the champion Dodgers to reject Trump's invitation to the White House. Finally, we speak to comedian Ron Placone about the surreal and sometimes hilarious contradictions surrounding this year's World Cup in Trump's America. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.
Hurricanes video coach John Stanier on having his day with the Cup today, celebrating in Carp, how the schedule with the Cup is created, and the do's and don'ts when you have the Cup.

7-2-26 New Mexico United Owner-CEO, Peter Trevisani joins the program to tell us about his surreal experience watching USA vs. Bosnia-Herzegovina
From MPR News, Art Hounds are members of the Minnesota arts community who look beyond their own work to highlight what's exciting in local art. Want to be an Art Hound? Submit here.A sprawling surrealist exhibit Twin Cities painter David Amdur recommends seeing "The Internal Affairs of Mr. Invincible," an exhibition of more than 100 mixed-media drawings by Lou Ferreri at Hopkins Center for the Arts, on view through August 1. Amdur says: “To get some sense of it, imagine a collaboration between Salvador Dalí and R. Crumb. They are entire editorial pages from the New York Times that have been painted on with acrylic pens, so they're very colorful, and most of the images are quite complex and very surreal, very strange. Also in the exhibition are monumental charcoal drawings that are more than four feet across. It's not a show to rush through. There's really a lot to take in. I would give myself time to linger with the drawings. You'll find unexpected and surprising connections emerge.” Sculpture walking tours Tony Austinson of Fridley got interested in public sculpture during the pandemic, when viewing art indoors wasn't an option. Visiting the sculpture walks created by various Minnesota cities has turned into a hobby, and he likes to go with his literal art hound, Tillie, at his side. Over time, he's come to recognize and appreciate the work of individual artists, such as Tim Nelson of Bemidji, who makes sculptures from scrap metal. Austinson recommends checking out the sculpture walks in a city near you. Here are links to self-guided walking tours in Mankato, Bemidji, Park Rapids, Fergus Falls, Hutchinson, Red Wing, and Delano, as well as Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Performance art meets political theater Sarra Beckham-Chasnoff is a theater superfan in the Twin Cities. One standout theatrical performance from last fall—which she is excited to see return this weekend—is “In the Backroom,” created and performed by Michael Torsch. The show is 70 minutes without intermission and runs July 2-5 at 7 p.m. at the Southern Theater in Minneapolis. Beckham-Chasnoff says this play-within-a-play surprised her at every turn, and its themes feel timely for the Fourth of July. “Michael Torsch is just a local treasure, so he does a type of performance art that is very smart and funny, and simultaneously very accessible. He introduces some controversial 21st-century American figures. I think it just kind of has a more complicated view of what America is, and so with the 250th anniversary, I just think it will be a poignant piece to see. “The [theater] is just a few blocks away from where the fireworks will be in Minneapolis, and so for folks going to the July Fourth show, they'll be able to walk over and watch the fireworks afterwards.”

This week, we review Boots Riley's sophomore feature, I Love Boosters, an absurdist comedy skewering capitalist rot at the center of the fashion industry. An enthusiastic reflection of Riley's own politics, I Love Boosters features an infectious display of surrealist humor, eye-popping visuals, and labor-of-love practical effects; but is it enough to cover its everything-and-the-kitchen-sink approach? We discuss the movie, go on a Star Wars tangent, and give an update on our Summer Box Office Wager.
"Are you John Malkovich?" For Episode 405, Brandon and David close out CineNation's main series on Surreal movies with BEING JOHN MALKOVICH.

Kathryn speaks to three Kiwis who not only ran away with the circus - they've actually set up their own one.
Dive into one of the most unsettling and artistically ambitious machinima films we've ever reviewed. In this episode of Now For Something Completely Machinima, we explore “The Murderer” by Yago Muriel — a haunting black-and-white psychological horror created in Garry's Mod that blends surrealism, classic cinema, and existential dread.With clear influences from David Lynch, The Outer Limits, and Hitchcock-era filmmaking, this film transforms a humble game engine into something deeply disturbing, poetic, and unforgettable. Expect eerie bird motifs, ambiguous storytelling, and a shocking twist that lingers long after the credits.If you love psychological horror, surreal films, experimental storytelling, or indie filmmaking, this is a must-watch discussion.⏱️ Key Moments & Timestamps1:00 – Overview of The Murderer & creator background3:50 – Why you should watch the film BEFORE this review (no spoilers!)4:20 – Visual style: black & white, classic horror influences8:20 – Surreal tone & comparisons to classic TV and cinema10:30 – Atmosphere, mood, and uncanny storytelling15:10 – Sound design, editing, and emotional impact20:10 – The shocking twist explained ⚠️ (SPOILERS)21:50 – Filmmaking craft & narrative ambiguity23:00 – Interpretation: madness, guilt, and symbolism26:50 – Style analysis: blending classic cinema & machinima29:30 – Alternate interpretations of the ending34:20 – Themes: human nature, violence, and surreal logic36:50 – Why ambiguity makes the film more powerful37:00 – Creator insights: influences & creative process39:30 – Final thoughts & why this could become a cult classic
For the "Offbeat Musical" cycle's Mise-Unseen episode, Emilio and Julian come in brick cold (and Madeline a tad less frigid) to their selected film for discussion - 'The Happiness of The Katakuris', Takashi Miike's surreal horror/dramedy/musical from 2001' about a down-on-their-luck family banding together to run a struggling roadside inn, only to endure a string of unfortunate events. They are joined by cinephile and film recommender extraordinaire Lexi Amoriello, who had seen this wacky film before, to get into their initial feelings on this film. The group discusses the subjective role the musical numbers occupy in the story, digest the film's look and feel, share bits from this film's commentary track (notably not easy to find!), examine what messages about family and familial responsibilities run through the film, have fun noticing wardrobe choice, and take part in one of the more freewheeling rounds of Unlikely Shared Universe yet!Lexi's movie recommendations, a wonderful and much appreciated service to film lovers everywhere, can be found at her website movierecsbylex.com and on IG, Tik Tok, and YouTube @movierecsbylex If you enjoy our podcast, please rate and review us on your podcast platform of choice.

"Moon joy." That's what the Artemis commander called the crew's lunar euphoria as they approached the moon. And that was just the beginning. For all their science, for all their simulations, they were almost at a loss for words. The view behind the moon and seeing the Earth left them in awe. And to think - they were looking at one little blue marble in one galaxy. In what is estimated now to be two trillion galaxies! Four people have now traveled farther from our planet than all the billions who have lived on Earth. The commander said "It was the most spectacular moment... It paused all four of us in our tracks." As they got their first full glimpse of their home planet. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "The View From the Moon and the Search in Your Heart." We're wow-ed by our sunsets on earth. They got to see an "Earthset" as the earth dropped below the lunar horizon - and a stunning view of the moon eclipsing the sun. Commander Wiseman said, "No matter how long we look at this, our brains are not processing this image in front of us. It is absolutely spectacular. Surreal. I know there's no adjectives. I'm going to need to invent some new ones to describe what we are looking at out this window." Three thousand years ago, the psalmist David seemed to be lost in wonder, too, just viewing the night sky from earth. Here's what he said in our word for today from the Word of God - Psalm 8:3-4. "When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place, what is mankind that You are mindful of them, human beings that You care for them?" (Psalm 8:3-4). The wonders of our tiny corner of the cosmos overflow the heart, whether simple or scientific. So what is the word for what we feel in these awe-filled moments that take us beyond ourselves? The word is worship. But, like love, worship is incomplete without an object. "I love" is a nice beginning, but it needs a name after it. So does a heart that is overflowing with feelings of wonder, inspired by the majesty of creation. Creation itself is not enough for a heart in search of somewhere to land our soaring soul. We are reaching for the Source. The sacred Scriptures complete our cosmic soul journey by pointing us to Jesus. The Christ. The Son of God. Colossians 1 says, "For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible... all things have been created through Him and for Him" (Colossians 1:15-16). One crew member said, "You're on a spaceship called Earth that was created to give us a place to live. You are special." Looking at the cosmos from this "special" place, David marveled that the Creator of it all would be "mindful" of us or "care for" us. This planet is not even a speck in the oceans of galaxies. But it is here that God Almighty chose to make creatures in His own image! Made - and here's what takes my breath away - to have a love relationship with Him! The Son of God Himself came here, to this little planet to make that relationship possible - by dying for the sin that stands between us. The wonders of a space journey to our farthest destination so far have revealed the greater journey of every heart on this planet. To find the One behind the wonders. Who not only created this planet. But who has visited this planet to take us to Him. The wonder of all wonders is that... "God so loved the world!" This world. Our world. Us. And the relationship He made us for is within your reach today if you say, "Jesus, I am Yours from this day forward." If you want that relationship, then our website is for you today, go there. It's ANewStory.com. When you reach for Jesus, the greatest wonder of all is not in the skies. It's in your heart. He's in your heart.

(Psalm 8:3-4). The wonders of our tiny corner of the cosmos overflow the heart, whether simple or scientific. So what is the word for what we feel in these awe-filled moments that take us beyond ourselves? The word is worship. But, like love, worship is incomplete without an object. "I love" is a nice beginning, but it needs a name after it. So does a heart that is overflowing with feelings of wonder, inspired by the majesty of creation. Creation itself is not enough for a heart in search of somewhere to land our soaring soul. We are reaching for the Source. The sacred Scriptures complete our cosmic soul journey by pointing us to Jesus. The Christ. The Son of God. Colossians 1 says, "For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible... all things have been created through Him and for Him" (Colossians 1:15-16). One crew member said, "You're on a spaceship called Earth that was created to give us a place to live. You are special." Looking at the cosmos from this "special" place, David marveled that the Creator of it all would be "mindful" of us or "care for" us. This planet is not even a speck in the oceans of galaxies. But it is here that God Almighty chose to make creatures in His own image! Made - and here's what takes my breath away - to have a love relationship with Him! The Son of God Himself came here, to this little planet to make that relationship possible - by dying for the sin that stands between us. The wonders of a space journey to our farthest destination so far have revealed the greater journey of every heart on this planet. To find the One behind the wonders. Who not only created this planet. But who has visited this planet to take us to Him. The wonder of all wonders is that... "God so loved the world!" This world. Our world. Us. And the relationship He made us for is within your reach today if you say, "Jesus, I am Yours from this day forward." If you want that relationship, then our website is for you today, go there. It's ANewStory.com. When you reach for Jesus, the greatest wonder of all is not in the skies. It's in your heart. He's in your heart.

Putin puppet Viktor Orbán—whose nepotistic and corrupt government in Hungary has become the model for the far-right in America and Europe—is facing his first serious election challenge in 16 years. It turns out that voters get mad when a president steals from the public and tanks the economy. Vance tried to bolster Orbán with Kremlin-esque fake propaganda, but the energy may be with the grassroots campaign of Peter Magyar. Plus, Vance's arrogance and ignorance about Ukraine, Trump is still coming up short on his Iran war goals, the administration made some weird threats against Pope Leo, and Kari Lake is still a loser.

2. A Bizarre Diplomatic Failure and the Debt of Charles I Guest Author: Jonathan Healey Healey recounts the surreal 1623 journey of Prince Charles and the Duke of Buckingham to Madrid, where they donned false beards in a failed attempt to secure a Spanish marriage. This "picker" adventure ended in humiliation, pushing an aging, ill James I toward a costly continental war. Upon James's death in 1625, the twenty-four-year-old Charles I inherited the throne along with a staggering one-million-pound debt. This immediate financial crisis forced Charles to turn to a fractious Parliament, setting the stage for decades of constitutional conflict regarding royal authority and the rights of the governed.

Jen Psaki reports on the confirmation hearing for Donald Trump's pick to replace Kristi Noem to lead the Department of Homeland Security, Markwayne Mullin. Mullin is already a dubious choice to lead DHS, but a long-running feud between Mullin and committee chair, Rand Paul added a whole new dimension to why he might not be a good choice. Jen Psaki reports on director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard's testimony at the Senate Intelligence Committee's worldwide threats hearing, Gabbard was careful not to say anything that would contradict statements made by Donald Trump on his war against Iran, even when directly confronted with her own statements, obvious facts, or the responsibilities of her job. Senator Mark Kelly discusses the stakes of Donald Trump staffing important national security positions with unqualified sycophants. "She's a liar!" Rep. Maxwell Frost talks with Jen Psaki about what happened behind closed doors at a House Oversight Committee meeting with Donald Trump's attorney general, Pam Bondi, about arranging a hearing, under oath, about the Justice Department's handling of the Epstein documents. Senator Mark Warner discusses his concerns about the safety of upcoming elections. To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.
