Ep 82The Bridgewater Triangle
ESomewhere in southeastern Massachusetts, there’s a stretch of land where strange things happen. Ghosts guard ancient swamps, cryptids stalk the forests and skies, and the local history is marred by satanic murders. This Halloween, we venture into the Bridgewater Triangle — uncovering the bloody echoes of King Philip’s War, the trickster "Pukwudgies", and supposed satanic killings that rocked the small communities trapped inside the triangle's vertices. Is it cursed land… or just bad real estate? ----------- JOIN OUR PATREON: / accordingtoanidiot Thanks for listening! We are now available wherever you listen to podcasts!

Ep 81Underground Cities: Subterranean Secrets
EWhat lies beneath? Turns out, there’s a lot going on under our feet—and it’s not just Mole People (yes, we are allies). This week we dig into conspiracy theories about secret subterranean government cities, take a stroll through Seattle’s buried undergrounds, and tour Beijing’s Cold War bunker city. It’s partially history, partially mystery... and part “should we be worried about what’s down there?” Ready your shovels and dive in! ----------- JOIN OUR PATREON: / accordingtoanidiot Thanks for listening!

Ep 80Ghosts of the Civil War
EGrab your bayonets and ghost-hunting gear — this week, Jeremy drags Moe deep into the haunted heart of Civil War history, spotlighting the blood-soaked battlefields of Shiloh and Antietam, where the ghosts don’t rest easy (and neither does Jeremy, once he starts yappin'). Moe fires back with a truly disturbing detour into Civil War-era STD outbreaks — because nothing says “eternal torment” like ghost crabs. History, hauntings, and horrifying rashes — this one’s got it all. ----------- JOIN OUR PATREON: / accordingtoanidiot Thanks for listening! We are now available wherever you listen to podcasts!

Ep 79The UFO Whistleblowers - Watch the Skies (Part 2)
ELast we met, mysterious drones had everyone seeing UFOs! This time, we’re talking real UAP disclosure. In 2023, the House Oversight subcommittee grilled the government on what they actually know, and the answers were... murky. Between whistleblowers dropping “non-human biologics,” the Pentagon playing coy, and Congress demanding transparency, are we on the brink of UFO truth—or just another wild goose chase? Grab your tinfoil hat—it’s about to get weird! ----------- JOIN OUR PATREON: / accordingtoanidiot Thanks for listening! We are now available wherever you listen to podcasts!

Ep 78Drones Over New Jersey - Watch the Skies (Part 1)
EIn the winter of 2024, the skies over New Jersey turned into a scene straight out of a sci-fi thriller—mysterious drones, blinking lights, and absolutely zero good explanations. Were they spies? Aliens? A rogue Amazon Prime experiment gone horribly wrong? The FBI, Homeland Security, and even the White House got involved, only to later tell us, “Don’t worry, it’s fine”—which, of course, made everyone worry more. Join us as we unravel the great Garden State Drone Panic, indulge in conspiracy theories, and try to figure out why New Jersey can’t just have normal winters. Stay tuned for next week's release when we continue this airborne 2-parter with a full rundown of the recent congressional hearings on UAP (UFOs, flying saucers, wicked fast mystery planes) and all the wild things our government has been hiding from us regarding alien contact! ----------- JOIN OUR PATREON: / accordingtoanidiot Thanks for listening!

Ep 76My Immortal: A (Horrible) Harry Potter Fan Fiction
EHappy Holidays! To celebrate, we're giving you a gift that keeps on giving, whether you like it or not. While a tad out of character from our usual content, this cackle-filled reading of one of the internets most notorious "fan fictions" should delight all fans of the pod! If you were an emo tween in the 2000s with a love for the Harry Potter series, you've likely heard of this notorious fanfic. Written by a (seemingly partially-literate) teenage author, "My Immortal" borrows all of your favorite characters from the 'Potterverse' and transforms them into gothic teenage outcasts. The singular original character in this piece, Ebony Dementia Raven Way, is the quintessential goth/emo/scene girl who serves as an obvious avatar for the angsty author. She's a vampire witch-in-training whose love of early 2000s emo-rock is nearly as great as her love for a certain troubled Slytherin student. When Ebony's romance with fellow Hogwarts alum Draco Malfoy is challenged by an old flame, all hell breaks loose at the wizarding school. A familiar classmate nicknamed "Vampire" (formerly known as Harry Potter) enters Ebony's life and inadvertently sends her down a path of heartbreak and dark arts. Chaos only amplifies when the Dark Lord Voldemort tasks young Ebony with an impossible demand... MURDER! Can our protagonist navigate a minefield of furious professors perverted suitors, or will the forces of evil - and unreadable prose - conquer all? ----------- *JOIN OUR PATREON* Thanks for listening!

Ep 75Strange Appalachia: Folktales & Superstitions
EAfter a horrifying election season, we invite you to join us as we distract ourselves with horrors that dwell far beyond the halls of power! The Appalachian Mountains are some of the oldest mountains on Earth. For centuries they have enchanted all those who have settled in the shadow of their towering peaks. Native Americans and European settlers alike had found profound beauty in the region we call "APPALACHIA". Alongside the natural splendor, a mysterious energy also inhabits the vast forests and abandoned mines. The locals have known it by many names: ghosts, faeries, monsters, etc. To cope with the seemingly haunted world around them, the mountain folk developed a set of rules for survival. Some of these superstitions include: - Never whistle at night. - If a familiar voice calls to you in the woods, do NOT answer it. - When visiting a home, always exit through the door you entered. What is it about Appalachia that has inspired so many legends and superstitions? Join us as we examine the history and culture of this paranormal hotspot! ----------- *JOIN OUR PATREON* Thanks for listening! We are now available wherever you listen to podcasts!

Ep 74Double Death: The Art of Posthumous Executions
EKill me once, shame on me. Kill me twice... that's a "posthumous execution"! We're back with yet another bizarre history lesson. This episode covers a grim ritual practiced by our twisted forefathers. In previous episodes we've discussed public executions - a disturbing tradition that combined capital punishment with live entertainment. For centuries, executions were performed before captivated crowds to remind the masses that crime never pays. But what if one execution wasn't enough?

ENeed a lift? We're hitting the road to investigate the legend of the Vanishing Hitchhiker! We've all heard the old tale of a weary motorist giving aid to a stranded stranger on the side of dark road. In these twice-told legends, the driver offers the hitchhiker a ride home... only for the strange passenger to VANISH before arriving at their destination - which is often revealed to be a long-abandoned home or spooky graveyard.

EWe're back with an EXTRA close encounter of the Third Kind! ... In 1957, Brazilian farmer Antonio Vilas-Boas was plucked from his tractor and brought aboard an alien spacecraft. Unlike other tales of alien contact, Antonio's account centers around an experiment in hybrid breeding.

Ep 65The Montauk Project
EWe're back with a new episode that covers two interweaving government conspiracy theories about secret military experiments. First, the testing of a controversial new cloaking device leaves a WW2 battleship in uncharted waters. This event known as the "Philadelphia Experiment" would bring about bizarre consequences that inspired a decades long study into electromagnetism and psychic powers. That rumored military study was known colloquially as the "Montauk Project". Set in the coastal New York town of (you guessed it) Montauk, this tale of obscene human experimentation borrows heavily from our favorite tropes about shadow governments and psychic phenomena. If you enjoy crackpot conspiracies, unreliable narrators, and time travel - you are in for a treat! ----------- *JOIN OUR PATREON* Thanks for listening!

Ep 64The Dark Watchers
E"It always feels like somebody's watchin' me." - Rockwell Have you ever found yourself alone when suddenly you catch the feeling of watchful eyes? It might manifest as an unwanted specter peeking through the crack in the closet door, or the burning stare of some invisible voyeur watching from beyond a darkened window. In these moments of unexplainable panic, we often tell ourselves that it's the mind playing tricks - but for the citizens and visitors of California's central coast, its all too real. The Dark Watchers are one of Cali's strangest secrets. Be it natural phenomenon or supernatural forces, the one thing that IS known about "Los Vigilantes Oscuros" is that they've haunted Californians for centuries. Starting in the 1700s when Spanish scouts first braved the central mountain ranges, the Watchers were reportedly seen in large numbers staring down from clifftops and waiting along the horizon. Silent, towering silhouettes of men in black shrouds and wide-brimmed hats. Looming, waiting, watching. Listen as we unravel the mystery of these shadowy guardians. But first: take a good look around. Someone may be watching you... ----------- *JOIN OUR PATREON* Thanks for listening! We are now available wherever you listen to podcasts!

Ep 63The Leviathan: A Biblical Beast
EThe Bible & Monsters. Name a more iconic duo. Our latest minisode examines the legend of a beast both apocalyptic and allegorical. The primordial sea serpent known simple as "The Leviathan" appears throughout the Old Testament and serves as the ultimate symbol of godly power and primal evil. Having numerous interpretations and meanings, this monster is as mysterious as it is weird. *JOIN OUR PATREON* ------------- Thanks for listening!

Ep 61The Flatwoods Monster
EFeast your ears on this PARANORMAL ICON! In this installment we tell the tale of the Flatwoods Monster - a bonafide classic urban legend that came about at the peak of America's "flying saucer fever"... One evening in 1952, a gaggle of schoolboys followed an earthbound fireball as it crash landed in the little town of Flatwoods, West Virginia. As they approached the crash site they witnessed an otherworldly creature whose baffling image would continue to haunt the small town for over half a century. Be it alien or animal, "The Green Monster" would go on to become one of West Virginia's quirkiest mascots (2nd only to the legendary Mothman). *JOIN OUR PATREON* ----------------- Thanks for listening!

Ep 60Houska Castle: Portal to Hell
EWelcome to Hell! Perched upon a steep rocky cliff in the Czech wilderness sits Houska Castle, a 13th-century gothic fortress hiding a dark secret within its unconventional walls. Upon first glance, one would notice the structure's peculiar design - it appears to have been built INSIDE OUT. While your typical castle is built to defend against outside attack, Houska's defensive walls all point inward. And if that wasn't ominous enough, the castle was built atop a seemingly bottomless pit that local legend claims to be a portal to HELL...

Ep 59The Legend of Baba Yaga
EMove over Grandma, there's a new bitch on the block! Old ladies are sweet and unassuming, right? WRONG. Across the centuries elderly women have appeared in folklore and fairytales as menacing hags who deal in trickery and evil schemes. Look no further than the classic figure of "The Witch", a black magic wielding villain traditionally depicted as a decrepit old woman who is hideous in both appearance and nature. Sometimes these evil grannies even practice cannibalism, like in the tale of 'Hansel and Gretel'. But what is it about old ladies that scare us so much? Why do our fairytales demonize GILFs? And where did this negative archetype come from? In this minisode we'll ruminate on these kinds of questions as we look at the legend of "Baba Yaga", a supernatural hag from early eastern European folklore who is the epitome of that old witchy archetype. WARNING: this minisode includes discussions of murder, vulvas, and houses with chicken legs. ----------- *JOIN OUR PATREON* Thanks for listening! We are now available wherever you listen to podcasts!

Ep 53Edgar Cayce: The Sleeping Prophet
E*SUPPORT US ON PATREON* The terms "psychic" and "medium" are often used when describing Edgar Cayce. Cayce, a popular clairvoyant who spearheaded both the New Age movement in America as well as holistic medicine, cannot be defined that simply. He was a modest, quirky southern salesman-turned-businessman-turned-paranormal icon. Until his death in 1945, Edgar Cayce mystified millions with his unconventional mediumship which consisted of him laying on a couch and entering a sleep-like trance state. In this trance state, Cayce was possessed by what he called "The Entity", a mysterious intelligence that allowed him to predict the future and give fortunes to folks curious enough to try...

Ep 41Angels From Outer Space
EGreetings, Earthlings! This week we're channeling our spirit guides in search of cosmic enlightenment... just kidding, we're here to talk about aliens and stuff! "Space Brothers", or Nordic Aliens to be exact. Thats right, bucko, we're spilling the (not-so secret) beans on an advanced race of extraterrestrials whose motto is simple: PEACE AND LOVE. Since the 1950s, reports of beautiful long-haired humanoids making contact with earth folk have puzzled ufologists across the globe. Though they strongly resemble Scandinavians, the aptly named Nordic aliens are thought to hail from the Pleiades star cluster. For decades the Nordic aliens have acted as galactic babysitters, intervening in human affairs to prevent atomic war and annihilation - even inspiring new age religions in which believers claim to channel Pleiadian spirit guides. These ain't your grandpappy's space invaders! These aliens have feelings, and they're giving out free hugs! SUPPORT US ON PATREON! ------------------- Thanks for listening!
