This week Chump Slap and Poppascotch (yeah sorry, one of these again) take some time to discuss one of the most important issues of our time, which is Videogame Urban Legends. We had a ton of fun talking about them and it does get a little wacky. How Wacky? Listen to find out!
Two months after walking away from the Tombstone feud a free man, Johnny Ringo was found dead against a tree with a Colt in his hand. He had survived the Hoodoo War, jail breaks, and a showdown with Doc Holliday — but no one can agree on what finally killed him.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/JohnnyRingoREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/24j5xybkFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: A gentleman gunslinger who could quote Shakespeare, Johnny Ringo was a mythic gunslinger who died a mysterious death befitting his legend. (The Mysterious Death of Outlaw Johnny Ringo) *** To his family and neighbors, Richard Kuklinski was the all-American man. To the mafia and his victims, he was the "devil himself" known as the Iceman killer. (The Mafia's Most Prolific Hitman) *** Wherever tragedies happen, urban legends settle. And for almost every urban legend, there is a road to take you there… a road often just as terrifying as the urban legend it takes you to. (Roads that Lead to Urban Legends) *** We'll look at the true story of a bar bouncer accused of killing his wife… which is odd, seeing as the incident took place before he killed a man while defending her honor. (A Broad-Shouldered Bully Was Wiener) *** Extraterrestrials come in all shapes and sizes if you believe what you see on television, film, and even online in the fringe conversations of UFO enthusiasts. The most famous of the aliens are usually depicted in the very realistic, humanoid form… the Greys. But what exactly are the Greys? And is it possible they aren't extraterrestrial at all? (What Are The Greys) *** We'll meet a man who has an amazing superpower. He is especially proficient at passing gas.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: November, 2021This episode of Weird Darkness travels from a gunfighter's unexplained death under an Arizona oak tree to a mafia hitman's freezer, a tour of the world's most haunted highways, a St. Louis hanging, a British flatulence performer, and the enduring question of what the Grey aliens actually are.It opens with Johnny Ringo, the Shakespeare-quoting outlaw and cousin to the Younger and James brothers, who survived the Hoodoo War of Mason County, Texas, a jailbreak, multiple murder charges, and a near-shootout with Wyatt Earp and Doc Holliday on the streets of Tombstone — only to be found dead on July 13, 1882, slumped against a tree with a .45 caliber Colt in his right hand. The coroner called it suicide. Others pointed to the cartridges in his gun, the absence of powder burns, the odd position of his hat, and later confessions attributed to Earp himself, and called it murder. Biographers Jack Burrows and David Johnson weighed the same evidence a century later and sided with suicide, a quiet end for a man newspapers once misspelled into legend as "Ringgold."From there the episode moves to St. Louis in 1877, where Billy Wieners — a hulking bouncer at the Theatre Comique saloon, already out on bond for trying to kill his wife — shot assistant barkeeper A.V. Lawrence dead for insulting that same wife. The Missouri Supreme Court found nothing in the record to soften a verdict of deliberate murder, and after his sister Annie's commutation campaign failed to move Governor Phelps, Wieners hanged in the St. Louis jail yard on February 1, 1878, using his last words to warn other men away from whiskey.Next comes a road trip through the world's haunted highways: Zombie Road in Wildwood, Missouri; India's cursed Ranchi-Jamshedpur NH33, where 245 people died in three years and a woman in a white saree patrols the asphalt; South Africa's N9 with the hitchhiking ghost of Maria Roux; Australia's "Street With No Name" in Annandale; the werewolf sightings on Yorkshire's B1249; Malaysia's Karak Highway, where a creature was seen battering a husband's head against his own car roof; Scotland's A75 Kinmount Straight and its phantom animals; Long Island's Mount Misery and Sweet Hollow roads; the unearthed Hawaiian warrior bones beneath Oahu's H-1; Thailand's temple-haunting murdered wife on Chak Phra Road; and the ghosts scattered along old Route 66.The darkness deepens with Richard Kuklinski, the Gambino-affiliated contract killer known as the Iceman, who froze his victims' bodies in industrial freezers so the time of death could never be fixed. Convicted of six murders, he claimed hundreds, killing with cyanide nasal spray, ice picks, hand grenades, and his bare hands while coaching his children's barbecues and ushering Sunday Mass in suburban New Jersey. An ATF sting through his only friend, Phil Solimene, ended the run in 1986, and Kuklinski spent his remaining years giving prison interviews until his death in 2006 — a week after his wife Barbara declined, one last time, to lift the do-not-resuscitate order she had signed.The mood lifts with Paul Oldfield of Macclesfield, England, the performer called Mr. Methane, who discovered during a teenage yoga session that he could draw air into his colon at will and built a stage career on controlled flatulence — playing Phil Collins parodies, alarming Howard Stern, and logging 86 farts in a single minute for a 2018 Guinness World Records attempt, a talent the record book had refused to touch back in 1990.The episode closes among the Greys, the large-eyed, gray-skinned beings that dominate alien abduction reports from Betty and Barney Hill onward. Ufologists describe two castes — tall telepathic leaders and smaller cloned workers — originating in the Zeta Reticuli binary star system 38 light years away, harvesting human sperm and eggs to repair DNA ruined by generations of cloning. A rival theory holds that the Greys are not extraterrestrials at all but human beings from a distant future: taller, thinner, larger-brained time travelers returning to collect healthy genetic material from before whatever catastrophe awaits us.

Im 255. WildMics-Special wollten wir den aktuellen Forschungsstand zum Thema Neuropsychologie beleuchten. Wir sprachen über die Gefahren von Kopfbällen, Albträume und die Aufräumarbeiten im Gehirn während des Schlafs. Außerdem ging es um die Fähigkeit des Gehirns, lebenslang neue Verbindungen zu formen und dadurch sogar in gewissem Maße Schäden zu reparieren. Über all das und vieles mehr sprachen wir mit Jens Foell. Diese Sendung wurde am 09.06.2026 aufgezeichnet.

Was it simply a dark rumor, or is there something more unsettling hidden in plain sight across Japan's streets?

Wer steckt hinter der SCP Foundation? Ihr Auftrag: Sichern. Schützen. Verwahren (Secure. Contain. Protect.). Anomale Objekte, gefährliche Entitäten und unerklärliche Phänomene sollen vor der Öffentlichkeit verborgen und unter Kontrolle gehalten werden. Klingt nach einem Verschwörungsthriller? Ist es aber nicht. Oder zumindest nicht ganz. Seit über 15 Jahren zieht die SCP-Foundation Millionen von Menschen in ihren Bann und hat sogar ein öffentliches Wiki, das sich wie eine echte Behördendatenbank liest. Wie konnte es gelingen, dass diese Organisation von einigen fast ernster genommen wird als so manche offizielle Stelle? Kann uns die SCP-Foundation tatsächlich vor einem „XK-Klasse-Weltuntergangs-Szenario“ schützen? Und was sagt es über uns aus, dass wir uns diese Frage überhaupt stellen? Wir haben uns die SCP Foundation genauer angesehen. Von den Anfängen auf einem Internetforum über die bizarre Vielfalt ihrer Kreaturen und Objekte bis hin zur Frage, warum uns das kollektive Spekulieren über das mögliche Ende der Welt so viel Vergnügen bereitet. 24.06.2026 Online-Vortrag bei der VHS Hannover „Scrollen, Swipen, Sorgen: Soll der Staat Kinder vor Social Media schützen?“ zur kostenfreien Anmeldung Wie man uns unterstützen kann, könnt ihr hier nachlesen.

(WATCH THIS EPISODE ON YOUTUBE) “I am astonished how successful these urban legends have been in influencing policy. . . .The people that created these stories did so with remarkable skill.” The Grazinski case, the Carson case, and the Walton case, to name a few. They've all been cited as true by a wide range of major media outlets, including CNN and U.S. News & World Report. There's just one problem: These cases don't exist. And neither do the people in them. No, AI didn't hallucinate them. Big corporations did... ...For more than 30 years, Stella Liebeck's lawsuit has been debated on talk shows, parodied in television commercials, mentioned in congressional debates, and is firmly lodged in the public consciousness. In U.S. popular culture, her case has come to symbolize greedy plaintiffs and lawyers who file frivolous lawsuits and win hugely excessive sums in a broken legal system. And that was exactly what the big corporations, and their powerful lobbyists, wanted you to think. Reb spills all of the real, true, and graphic details of Liebeck v.

Im 253. WildMics-Special wollten wir eigentlich über die Klima- und Wirtschaftspolitik der Bundesregierung im Jahr 2026 sprechen. Dabei sollte es um die Energieagenda von Wirtschaftsministerin Katharina Reiche, ihre Nähe zu großen Energiekonzernen, den Widerspruch zwischen der Abschaffung des Heizungsgesetzes und der aktuellen Energiepreiskrise gehen. Den größten Teil der Sendung nahm dann aber die Frage ein, wie eine realitätsorientierte Politik in einem zunehmend polarisierten Klima noch vermittelbar ist und wie die parlamentarische Demokratie in Deutschland eigentlich so wirklich funktioniert. Darüber sprachen wir mit Felix Banaszak, Bundesvorsitzender von Bündnis 90/Die Grünen. Diese Sendung wurde am 19.05.2026 aufgezeichnet. Wie man uns unterstützen kann, könnt ihr hier nachlesen.

“This movie has seen Scream… and Scream 2” - AndrewOn this week's episode, we're chatting about the fun-enough satirical slasher sequel, Urban Legends: Final Cut!

In 1910 two witnesses see a pair of lights that transform into radiant beings with “human form.” You might dismiss the report as misidentification of ball lightning or some other natural explanation – but in 1952 those radiant humanoid beings of light were seen again! #WDRadio — May 17, 2026HOUR ONE: 7-year-old Maria went missing in 1957, and while her body was later found, her murder was never solved and the case went cold – until 50 years later when the case was finally solved and closed. But it turns out everybody was wrong. (A Cold Case Finally Solved… Then Unsolved) *** If you take State Route 375 through Nevada you will pass by the infamous Area-51. But of course they are not going to let you in, even if you ask nicely. But State Route 375 isn't called the Extraterrestrial Highway just because of one area you can't visit – there's a lot more to it than that. (The 98-Mile Extraterrestrial Highway) *** Hikers sometimes get lost in the woods, as do children of course. But those on bikes almost never disappear; but there is one tragic case of a fat tire rider who couldn't be found. (The Vanished Mountain Biker) *** In 1910 two witnesses see a pair of lights that transform into radiant beings with “human form.” You might dismiss the report as misidentification of ball lightning or some other natural explanation – but in 1952 those radiant humanoid beings of light were seen again! (Close Encounters of the Fairy Kind)==========HOUR TWO: "It was a terrible sight… I have seen horrible sights, but never anything like this.” Those were the words of the local undertaker after seeing the results of a triple murder laying before him in 1932 Pennsylvania. (The Axe Murders of Lykens) *** A gypsy once told Leonarda that all of her children would die before her. A different fortuneteller told her that she faced either a future in prison or in a criminal asylum. And the reason she gave for becoming a serial killer is something you'd hear out of a bad direct-to-video horror film. And that's a tiny sample of this woman's insanely dark life – which began even before her birth. (The Woman Who Made Soap) *** Ireland's Loftus Hall is considered by many to be the most haunted location on all the Emerald Isle. But the most infamous story of Loftus Hall begins not with terror, but with romance… with a beautiful young girl falling madly in love with… the devil. (The Girl Who Fell In Love With The Devil) ==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: More of the story of Ireland's Loftus Hall and the young girl who fell in love with the devil! (The Girl Who Fell In Love With The Devil) *** Chlorosis was a frequently diagnosed disease during the 19th century that gave the skin of the afflicted a greenish tinge. As a cure, doctors told young women to get married and reproduce. As you can probably surmise, the cure was not in the least bit effective. (The Girls Who Turned Green) *** Have you heard of the poor girl who was bullied and pushed down into a sewer by those whom she thought were her friends? I'll tell you the story. And while this episode is not a creepypasta episode, so all the stories are supposed to be non-fiction, that is… true, I will be sharing this urban legend anyway – because when it comes to urban legends, sometimes it's best to err on the side of caution and simply assume they are true. (The Urban Legend of Carmen Winstead) *** Weirdo Family member Brad Hicks describes the experience as “cool… and creepy as hell”. We'll tell you his story. (The Thing In The Light) *** More of the story of Ireland's Loftus Hall and the young girl who fell in love with the devil!

Mitten im Pazifik, rund 550 Kilometer vor der Küste Costa Ricas, liegt eine Insel, die kaum jemand je betreten hat – und die dennoch die Phantasie von Menschen auf der ganzen Welt beflügelt. Cocos Island: dicht bewaldet, von Wasserfällen durchzogen, von tosender Brandung umgeben. Und angeblich voller Schätze. War es diese Insel, die Robert Louis Stevenson als Vorlage für seine „Schatzinsel“ diente? Was steckt hinter den Legenden von vergrabenem Piratensilber? Und was trieb den deutschen Abenteurer August Gissler Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts dazu, ausgerechnet hier eine Kolonie zu gründen? Wir haben uns die Geschichte von Cocos Island genauer angesehen – von Piratenmythen und Stevenson über Gisslers gescheitertes Kolonieexperiment bis hin zu einem der bestgeschützten Meeresschutzgebiete der Welt. 24.06.2026 Online-Vortrag bei der VHS Hannover „Scrollen, Swipen, Sorgen: Soll der Staat Kinder vor Social Media schützen?“ zur kostenfreien Anmeldung Wie man uns unterstützen kann, könnt ihr hier nachlesen.

Cox returns to review hip-hop legend T.I.'s explosive fourth album King as it turns 20.After stepping onto the scene and making himself known with his debut album, 2001's I'm Serious, the Atlanta rap star made further waves and saw larger success with his sophomore and junior albums, 2003's Trap Muzik and 2004's Urban Legend, respectively. He was looking to take the next step with this effort and make a claim as the professed "King Of The South" at a time when Atlanta hip-hop made its way to being at the epicenter of the industry. The album featured an all-star cast of producers and featured artist. It was produced by the likes of DJ Toomp, Mannie Fresh, Jus Blaze, The Neptunes, Kevin Mack, Nick Fury, Kevin "Khao" Cates and Swizz Beats while featuring artists such as UGK, Young Jeezy, Common, Young Dro, B.G., Young Buck, Pharrell and Jamie Foxx among others.The album's release coincided with the release three days later of the feature film and cult classic ATL, which was T.I.'s feature film debut and it also served as the de facto soundtrack. The album had four power-packed singles including the smash lead single "What You Know", which served as the movie's default theme. It was a huge success commercially, selling over 500,000 units the first week and is RIAA-certified 2x platinum. It solidified T.i. as a megastar and a major player in not only Atlanta's rap atmosphere, but the industry at-large for years to come.Show NotesOkayPlayer: The Once and Expeditious King: T.I. on 'King' 20 Years Later, His Latest Album and Morehttps://www.okayplayer.com/the-once-and-expeditious-king-ti-on-king-20-years-later-his-latest-album-and-more/1426138Yahoo: T.I. says it's 'wild to think that' his album 'King' is 20 years oldhttps://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/music/articles/t-says-wild-think-album-100000151.htmlWSB 95.5 Atlanta Talk & Music: Atlanta icon T.I. celebrates 20th anniversary of King album and its undeniable impacthttps://www.wsbradio.com/news/local/atlanta-icon-ti-commemorates-20th-anniversary-king-album-its-undeniable-impact/XD322ZV6JBHI5FJRHTJQOSPU5Y/Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In 1973, a bizarre encounter allegedly unfolded on the Isle of Wight, involving two children who claimed to meet an odd, clown-like humanoid figure near Sandown, England. Speaking in odd phrases and appearing to inhabit a strange, makeshift dwelling, the being called itself "All Colors Sam," and despite the obscure origins of the tale, it would eventually gain a cult following within the annals of UFO and high-strangeness lore, remembered today as the story of Sam "The Sandown Clown." Joining us this week on The Micah Hanks Program to discuss this case from ufology's "Odd Files" is Ryan Whalen, a Brooklyn-based researcher, science reporter, and college instructor who holds an MA in History and a Master of Library and Information Science with a certificate in Data Science. Whalen, who also co-hosts the podcast "Cease to Exist", reveals what he and his colleagues recently uncovered about this bizarre 1973 urban legend. What new details have emerged about the case, and one of the alleged witnesses to these eerie events that have since become a mainstay in modern UFO folklore?
