Send us Fan MailYour brain is way more flexible than your body. We start with a wild virtual reality study that asks a simple sci-fi question: could humans learn to fly if we had wings? After a week of VR training with motion tracking, participants don't just get better at flying through rings and hovering over cliffs, their brains begin responding to wings the way they respond to arms. We unpack what that says about neuroplasticity, body perception, and why “embodiment” is the real magic behind great human-tech interfaces.Then we shift to something you can try today with zero equipment: play with your dog for five extra minutes. A Royal Society study suggests short, focused interactive play like tug, chase, hide and seek, and rough-and-tumble can strengthen emotional closeness even more than adding extra training time. We share our own household chaos, the games that hype the dogs up, and why tiny daily interactions can matter more than you think.Our guest, Melly Byrd (Melly The Science Geek), brings the big energy and the big brains. We talk about building a science communication audience on TikTok and Instagram, choosing topics that genuinely spark curiosity, and going deep on the biology of cannibalism, prion diseases like Kuru and Creutzfeldt-Jakob, and what mad cow disease taught the world about the food chain. We also get real about generational divides, phones in schools, and the growing push to limit generative AI so students can actually learn the skills they're outsourcing.Melly on InstagramMelly's WebsiteAll our social links are here!Support the showFor Science, Empathy, and Cuteness!Being Kind is a Superpower.All our social links are here!

Wisconsin is known for its forests, lakes, farmland, old mining towns, rural highways, and quiet communities.

This episode features first-hand narration and submissions from our community.The most terrifying stories aren't the ones passed down through centuries—they're the ones happening right now to people just like you. In this special episode, we hand the microphone over to four members of the Spooky Appalachia family to share their personal, unexplainable encounters with the creatures that call these hills home.From the fog-heavy roads of West Virginia to the military-monitored hollers of the Mid-Ohio Valley, these fans recount the moments their reality shattered:The Route 7 Stalker: A driver in Wetzel County, WV, realizes the "skinny bear" he saw a decade ago was actually a bipedal, canine-like hunter that has claimed the highway as its own.The Winged Gentleman of Ruffin: Near the infamous Satan's Bridge (Danville, VA line), two friends witness a silent, human-shaped figure in a duster and wide-brimmed hat glide effortlessly over their car.The Carroll County Invisible: A Maryland commuter describes the gut-wrenching feeling of being hunted by a transparent, humanoid entity swinging through the treeline.The Mid-Ohio Valley Siege: A family's encounter with a spindly "Pale Walker" leads to a chilling military presence, Blackhawk helicopters, and a terrifying realization that the creatures can mimic the sounds of their own hounds.These are the voices of those who have seen the "veil" grow thin. Listen as they describe the sights, the smells, and the lingering dread of Appalachian cryptids.Want to share your own story on the show?

Indiana has long been a crossroads of strange and terrifying encounters, but some reports go far beyond the familiar haunted house or ghost story. In this episode, I present a chilling collection of Indiana cases involving winged humanoids, dark sentinels, bizarre roadside creatures, possible reptilian entities, graveyard horrors, and other unexplained beings that have left witnesses shaken for decades.From Wanatah to Rolling Prairie, from Shelbyville to Harrison County, these reports reveal a landscape marked by recurring high strangeness, where fear, mystery, and the unknown seem deeply rooted in the land itself. Some witnesses describe towering flying beings and horned entities. Others recount men in black coveralls, glowing child-like figures, and things seen in the woods and caves that simply do not fit accepted reality.If you have had a similar experience in Indiana or elsewhere, please leave a comment and share your account.

She dropped by the Q studio to talk to Garvia Bailey about the new album, Winged, and how she turns her self-doubt into soaring melodies.

Unless you enjoy quietly staring into trees, whispering “wait, did you see that?” and getting irrationally excited over feathers, this episode might not be for you. Think the Treasure Coast is just beaches and boat days? Try world-class birdwatching, migration hotspots, and species that make even seasoned birders freak out. From islands to preserves, this stretch of Florida is basically an accidental theme park for birds.In this episode, we explore the best places to spot everything from flashy roseate spoonbills to chill pelicans, plus tips for becoming the kind of person who packs binoculars “just in case.”
Some people find their calling in the most unexpected places. And for Brenda Sullivan, that calling happened… in the cemetery. In this two-part conversation, I'm joined by the fascinating, funny, wildly knowledgeable founder of The Gravestone Girls — cemetery artists and historians who are helping people all over the country reconnect with history, symbolism, mortality, and the stories literally carved into stone. I first discovered Brenda's work a couple of years ago when my daughter and I attended one of her talks at a library here in New Hampshire. I honestly didn't know what to expect — I assumed it might be spooky or "oddity-adjacent." But within minutes of listening to her, my entire world expanded. What Brenda does is deeply fact-based, richly historical, and surprisingly emotional. She teaches us that cemeteries are not just places of death — they are places of culture, meaning, artistry, community, and connection. In Part One (Episode 69) Brenda shares her incredible story of leaving behind a high-powered corporate career — what she calls a "soul-sucking day job" — to fully step into the work she truly loved. She talks about: • Being a "corporate dropout" and finally changing her seat • How a hobby turned into a thriving business and national following • Why the cemetery world is much bigger and more mainstream than people assume • The surprising hunger people have to be "invited in" to these spaces • How gravestones tell us not only who died — but how people lived We also explore the powerful idea that the more specific you get about what you love, the bigger your world becomes. In Part Two (Episode 70) Our conversation deepens into the history and symbolism of early New England burial grounds. Brenda walks us through: • The earliest burial practices in the 1600s • Why colonial gravestones were meant as messages to the living • Winged skulls, hourglasses, soul symbols, and the "scared straight" visual language of death • How modern medicine has changed our relationship with mortality • Why Victorians picnicked in cemeteries — and what we've lost in our disconnection from death This is one of those conversations that makes you look at something familiar — a graveyard, a headstone, a symbol you've passed a hundred times — and suddenly see an entire world underneath it. Brenda is passionate, hilarious, deeply thoughtful, and proof that following what fascinates you can open doors you never imagined. This episode is split into two parts at around the 42-minute mark — so make sure to listen to both. I cannot wait for you to step into this world with us. Find Brenda and her work by clicking here.

For years, I've been asked the same question. Are the Chicago winged humanoids the same beings reported near Point Pleasant, West Virginia, in 1966 and 1967? And if so, what exactly are they?In this episode, I examine multiple non-Chicagoland winged humanoid encounters, including cases from Missouri, Florida, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, and the Ohio River corridor. Each case is directly compared with structurally similar sightings from the 2017 Chicago wave.We analyze height variation, red-eyed manifestations, wing concealment, highway corridor crossings, tree-perch behavior, and ground-to-air transitions. Are we looking at a single distributed species with regional differences, multiple related morphotypes, or a phenomenon that transcends conventional biological explanation?The larger question remains. Are these beings Earth-dwelling creatures navigating hidden terrain corridors, or are they ultraterrestrial entities sharing our environment in ways we barely understand?This is not speculation. This is a pattern comparison across decades.If you have experienced an unexplained encounter or sighting, visit Phantoms and Monsters https://phantomsandmonsters.com to submit & share your story.

For years, investigator JC Johnson documented cases in the American Southwest that defied conventional wildlife encounters. Livestock are killed without being fed. Massive 'Furry Ones.' Upright predators are seen pacing vehicles. Winged humanoids returning night after night. And families targeted in ways that left lasting fear.In this episode of Phantoms & Monsters Radio, I present a focused selection of JC's most disturbing Four Corners investigations. These are not legends. These are documented cases with recurring patterns that continue to surface across the region.What emerges is not a single explanation, but a convergence. Cryptids. Predators. Cultural memory. And a landscape that does not let go of what moves through it.More cases remain. This is only the beginning.JC Johnson was a Southwest-based investigator and lead researcher for Crypto Four Corners, known for documenting cryptid encounters, livestock mutilations, and unexplained predation across the Four Corners region. His work emphasized field investigation, witness testimony, and indigenous knowledge, particularly on Navajo lands. Rather than offering simple explanations, Johnson focused on recurring patterns involving upright predators, winged humanoids, Sasquatch activity, and bloodless animal deaths. His investigations and collaborations with researchers & investigators continue to be referenced in ongoing discussions of anomalous activity in the American Southwest.As always, these accounts are presented without exaggeration, without conclusions forced upon the listener, and with respect for the witnesses who came forward.If you have experienced an unexplained encounter or sighting, visit Phantoms and Monsters https://phantomsandmonsters.com to submit & share your story.
