Journey to the Fringe

This week, we’re diving headfirst into the wonderfully weird world of the Weekly World News—the tabloid that proved reality is just a suggestion. From Bat Boy’s cave escapades to dragon-in-a-jar hoaxes, WWN was the supermarket shelf’s reigning champion of outrageous headlines and lovable nonsense. With a mix of clipped “news,” wild fiction, and opinion columns so spicy they’d make your grandma blush, this rag had readers questioning: “Is this real? Who cares!” Whether you remember it as the black-and-white beacon of bizarre or just a guilty checkout aisle pleasure, we’re unpacking the legacy of a publication that kept the weird alive and the incredulous entertained. Strap in for an episode full of laughs, nostalgia, and the kind of news that’s definitely not fake… or is it?Go ahead, like us, share us, follow us just do so in a consensual way.

This week, it’s a Journey to the Fringe first- part 1 of a 2 closely related mini episodes, episode.We’re exploring the surreal reality of nations slowly vanishing beneath rising seas. It’s not sci-fi—it’s happening now. From tropical paradises to icy outposts, communities around the globe are facing the ultimate eviction notice from Mother Nature. We unpack how climate change is reshaping borders, identities, and the very idea of home. Get ready for a JTTF specialty of existential dread, unexpected resilience, and a few salty jokes. It’s climate migration with a twist of lime.As always; como nosotras, compártenos, síganos, ámenos. Besos.https://theweek.com/environment/tuvalu-climate-change-evacuate-rising-sea-levels

Get ready to go underground—literally—because this episode digs into some seriously spooky mining tales that prove the earth’s not just full of rocks, but secrets, ghosts, and maybe a few otherworldly knuckleheads. From the mischievous Tommyknockers who knock on walls like ghostly miners-on-call, to eerie faces appearing on Spanish kitchen floors (because who doesn’t want a haunted concrete countertop?), and the Freiberg Shrieker—a winged, scream-machine saving miners from fiery doom. We also strike gold with the cursed Lost Dutchman Mine, where treasure hunters meet ghosts, madness, or worse. Don’t forget Bell Island’s haunted mines, Cold War conspiracies, and a boom loud enough to wake the dead—or maybe just attract some international spy attention.As always, like, follow, share just like Richard Doty would want you to, or wouldn’t want you to whatever makes you want to do it more

Lightning plays havoc in the Nevada desert, sparking the so-called “Gothic Fire” that’s torching over 30,000 acres right next to the top-secret Area 51 — denial of UFO infernos optional. Amid the tinder-dry conditions, federal crews are doing their best fire-dance to contain the blaze, while conspiracy buffs clutch their tin-foil hats a little tighter.Some say it’s still burning to this day (not fact checked, it may not be)As always like, share, follow- the galactic federation of light looks down upon those who do so favourablyhttps://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-14911767/fire-breaks-Area-51-UFO-neveda.htmlLive Stream Here (I think):https://www.treasurenet.com/threads/live-massive-fire-breaks-out-inside-area-51-24-7-rachel-nv-livestream.712469/

Nazis and UFOs go together like peanut butter and conspiracy jelly — weird, sticky, and impossible to ignore. This episode blasts off into the wild world where Third Reich science meets flying saucers, ghost rockets, and a mystery gadget called Die Glocke — a contraption so mysterious it might just bend time, space, or your sense of reality. We unpack WWII’s “foo fighters,” secret Antarctic bases, jet-age Nazi tech, and occult experiments that make sci-fi look amateur. From wartime skies to Cold War paranoia and underground UFO fleets, buckle up — it’s a wild, sassy trip through one of history’s freakiest “what if” stories.As always please like, share and follow, recently discovered as the 11th commandmentCredit where crdit is due: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqHyB6OHwD8

We’re in for yet another treat; rich people and their emoceans. I think that’s what we’re calling it. This week Residents in Falmouth, Massachusetts, describe their seaside idyll as “the ultimate beach-side dream”—until knee-deep floods and encroaching tides turn it into a soggy nightmare. In one memorable moment, a distraught homeowner quipped, “We grabbed the cat and got out,” as sea level rise nudges increasingly frequent retreat plans and dune-fix schemes.article for reference https://www.theage.com.au/national/we-grabbed-the-cat-and-got-out-the-waterside-dwellers-facing-rising-sea-levels-20250623-p5m9mm.htmlSorry friends, it’s paywalled you’ll have to use the 12 foot ladder

Oh my god guys editing this episode was a nightmare, the recording was not great (thanks Craig) and the editing software decided to lag the whole edit so maybe the higher ups don't want you to hear this one... or maybe coincidences do exist!!So this is a continuation of our last episode where we finish off Dr. Michael Salla's look at the Iraqi stargate and then look at other things he has discussed. It is a lot of fun and I think it turned out pretty good all things considered! Enjoy!Also check out his website if you want: Exopolitics – Dr. Michael Salla

Hello, welcome back. This week Taylor was feeling good (again 🙄)….though in the end we did end up feeling like an AI.This week we’re jumping into the wild world of robots running a marathon, if you feel compelled to say it’s not AI, this is neither the time or place.That’s right robots running a half marathon. Need I say more? Yes, I need but this is a mini and you get what you pay for.The most important thing to note is 1.) listen to the episode and 2.) here’s the link for some amazing robot running pictures https://apnews.com/article/china-robot-half-marathon-153c6823bd628625106ed26267874d21#I’m sure by now you’re feeling compelled to like, share, and follow with all your skibidis so just go on and do it.

so this episode is an amalgamation of two topics, it is mostly a Dr, Sala episode but we mostly cover his work on the stargate. SO enjoy the ride, this guy is fascinating!

Buckle up, because this week we wrap our skeptical little hearts around Extraordinary: The Revelations—the third and allegedly most profound installment in the series that promised to demystify UFOs for the masses… and kinda didn’t. With a 5.4 IMDb rating and a roll call of ufology’s VIPs, you’d think we’d be swimming in disclosure gold. Instead, it’s jargon without explanation, regression therapy thrown around like a BuzzFeed quiz, and filmmakers whose “deep ties to the unexplained” might just mean they own a Ouija board.We dig into the odd disconnect between their goal of mass accessibility and their strangely gatekept storytelling, plus the head-scratcher backgrounds of creators Jon Sumple and Jack Roth—who somehow have fewer online breadcrumbs than a ghost hunter in flip-flops. The trilogy claims to enlighten, but this episode? It’s here to expose the fluff.As always we appreciate a like, a share, a follow and we more than appreciate multiple of those! Xo

Ghana’s Drunkards Association just gave the government a three-week ultimatum: drop alcohol prices or they’ll “shut down everywhere”—bars, clubs, you name it.

Today is the day we’ve been waiting for, a follow up on the Extraordinary—The Stan Romanek Story (aka Stanley Tiger), where alien encounters take a backseat to… FBI-framed child porn charges.That was weird, right?! So weird we thought we’d follow up on J3 films and the two other Extraordinary films, it’s hard to follow but they tried! First up—The Seeding—a wild ride into alien hybrid baby experiments (complete with questionable sperm visuals 👀)—and The Revelations, where UFO experts debate biblical prophecies, government cover-ups. Think they can top Stanley Tiger? This episode is full of surprises. As always like us, share us, follow us for karma, we don’t disclose good or bad. Xo JTTF

What if the Big Bang wasn’t the beginning of everything—but just the Universe rebounding from a massive black hole collapse? Yep, we might be living inside a black hole.

Happy Friday… or is it…? This week, we dive into the slippery story of PFAS—also known as “forever chemicals”—and how DuPont helped introduce them into everyday life. From the accidental invention of Teflon by Roy J. Plunkett to DuPont’s billion-dollar empire built on non-stick convenience, we trace the rise of PFAS and their dark legacy. These chemicals, once celebrated for their water and heat resistance, are now found in the blood of nearly every human and animal on Earth. We explore the health consequences, the decades of corporate cover-ups, environmental contamination, and the legal reckoning that followed. It’s a tale of science, profit, and the hidden cost of convenience.Sources;https://www.unilad.com/news/us-news/how-dupont-invented-pfas-toxic-398729-20250516https://www.ecowatch.com/teflons-toxic-legacy-dupont-knew-for-decades-it-was-contaminating-wate-1882142514.htmlFurther ‘reading’-Dark water -The devil we know

China’s planning a massive solar power station in space that could beam energy back to Earth and outproduce all our oil in a single year.

In todays episode we are following Ed Walters with a weird happening that led to 6 military personnel being apprehended in Gulf Breeze Florida. Let's see how much this can be connected.

So there's a whole bunch of learning about things that you didn't know exist... but also they might be losing their jobs... I dunno just listen it's fun!news article: https://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/news/386673/experts-tasked-with-weeding-out-ai-images-of-the-loch-ness-monster#:~:text=Now%20in%20a%20renewed%20effort%20to%20weed%20out,have%20captured%20evidence%20of%20the%20monster%20on%20camera.

In this gripping episode of Journey to the Fringe, we dive deep into the legendary Gulf Breeze Incident — one of the most compelling and controversial UFO sightings in modern history. Join us as we explore the eerie experiences of Ed Walters, the mysterious lights over Gulf Breeze, and the enduring questions that have baffled ufologists for decades. Was it an elaborate hoax, advanced military technology, or an authentic extraterrestrial encounter? We analyze eyewitness testimonies, government responses, and the cultural impact of this iconic UFO case. Whether you're a seasoned UFO researcher or a curious newcomer, this episode unpacks the secrets behind one of Florida’s most famous alien mysteries. Tune in to uncover the truth behind the Gulf Breeze Incident and explore the fascinating world of UFO

So it looks like one of Uranus' moons, Miranda, may have an ocean and by extension life! There is a very good chance that this is simply because we do not have enough data but exciting none the less... Also I don't think we make any Uranus jokes (don't hold me to that though!).Article: https://www.earth.com/news/miranda-uranus-moon-may-have-hidden-ocean-possibly-extraterrestrial-life/

Winged horrors and mysterious figures take center stage this week as we explore two legendary cryptids: the Van Meter Visitor—a bat-winged beast that terrorized an Iowa town in 1903—and the Solway Firth Spaceman, a mysterious figure caught in a family photo that sparked global UFO theories. Two strange stories, one weird ride. Spaze jazz is the background music this week, thank you Kevin Macloud for doing a solid and creating the music of the angels.Don’t forget to like us, share us and follow us for good juju

This week, we swing into a strange new study linking golf courses to Parkinson’s disease. Turns out, living within a mile of a course could more than double your risk—especially if your tap water shares a source with those pesticide-soaked greens.We dive into the data, the chemicals, and why something as innocent as a putting green might not be so innocent after all. Is your local golf course messing with your brain?Grab your clubs (or don’t)—it’s time to talk turf, toxins, and tremors.

Hey there's a new pope! and we decided to talk popes so guess what... WE'RE covering the John Pauls (the nice boys in the pope boy band). Enjoy and let us know your pope name!

This episode the after life is giving Michigan a run for it's money... we’re diving straight into the deep (and occasionally demonic) end of near-death experiences—because sometimes the tunnel doesn’t lead to a warm, loving light… it leads to shrieking shadows, bottomless voids, and the occasional hellish pit stop.In this episode, we crack open the lesser-known vault of distressing NDEs. Forget the peaceful reunions and celestial symphonies—this is the stuff of spiritual horror films, only reported by real people, across cultures and beliefs. From spinning in cosmic isolation to encountering grotesque, moaning beings in fireless hellscapes, we explore accounts that are less “angel choir” and more “existential scream therapy.” We’re talking voids of nothingness, judgmental tunnels, malevolent guides, and terrifying “life reviews” that make your worst performance review look like a gold star day at kindergarten.But don’t panic—well, maybe panic a little—because we’re not here to assign cosmic demerits. The unsettling takeaway? These dark journeys don’t discriminate. Saints, skeptics, felons, moms in labor, lightning strike survivors… no one’s off limits when it comes to the mysterious rules of the afterlife roulette. So strap in as we explore how terrifying NDEs challenge our assumptions about death, morality, and whether you really want to “go toward the light.”Don’t forget if you like what you hear, show us some love and like, share and follow!Credit where credit is due; Thank you to Darkvine Music for fulfilling the ever important job of background musichttps://med.virginia.edu/perceptual-studies/wp-content/uploads/sites/360/2024/01/Roehrs2024_Terminal-Lucidity-in-a-Pediatric-Oncology-Clinic.pdf https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6173534/https://dancingpastthedark.com/https://www.womenofgrace.com/blog/78293

Welcome to your hump day pick me up, and good news, Taylor has it! On this episode, we head to the windswept Isle of Lewis, where residents are being haunted by… a hum. Yes, a mysterious, low-frequency droning noise that no one can quite locate—or agree on. Is it a marine mystery? A malfunctioning machine? Or just the sound of our own inner chaos? We dive into the drama, meet the Facebook detectives, and ask the hard questions: Why does your ear hum only in Scotland? Should dolphins be worried? And most importantly—can you hum it, or do you just feel it in your bones?Link!

In this thrilling second half we take a look at Edgar Mitchell's career with UFOs and aliens and all the twist and turns it takes. I would write more but I don't really want to spoil it.

Well a big name in the Epstein Conspiracy, Virginia Giuffre, just committed suicide... and it's a weird story. So it's a natural fit for us.... Umm there's some pretty big trigger warnings regarding suicides and sexual assaults, viewer discretion is advised.

In this episode of Journey to the Fringe, we step into the boots of Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 astronaut and the sixth person to walk on the moon. From his rigorous training at NASA to the breathtaking lunar expedition, we follow Mitchell’s journey as he leaves Earth, lands on the moon, and returns home. But something happened up there—something profound. As Mitchell gazed out at the stars on his way back, he experienced a shift in consciousness, an overwhelming sense that humanity was deeply interconnected with the universe. This moment would change his life forever… or was this just used as a convenient story to market himself?Join us as we explore Mitchell’s pioneering mission, personal revelations, and the awe-inspiring voyage that sparked his search for deeper meaning. In the second part of this 2 part series we will discuss the UFO portion of his career.

This week at Journey to the Fringe we're obsessed with wolves of all types- bipeds, Dire Wolves... probably others? That's right, we're diving deep into yet another great lake anaomaly... at least loosley in the neighborhood, and that's the legend of the Dogman—not to be confused with Dave Pilkey’s graphic novel hero, though this cryptid might also rip up your mail. From Michigan’s misty Manistee River to Pennsylvania’s moonlit pastures, sightings of this upright, canine-headed creature go way back, often showing up uninvited, and sometimes with a cigarette between its teeth (we don’t judge). We howl through eerie encounters, unpack Dogman vs. Werewolf lore, and paw through the curious case of a radio prank that accidentally birthed a legend. Grab your flashlight, your silver bullets (just in case), and join us for a walk on the weird side—where the only thing more unsettling than glowing eyes in the dark is a creature that grins back.As always like, share, follow and probably stay away from the great lakes until we find out whats going on there

In this howlingly strange mini, we sink our teeth into the buzz around Colossal Biosciences' claim that they’ve resurrected the dire wolf—yes, the same fang-faced legends from Game of Thrones. But are these snow-white pups really ancient predators reborn, or just very expensive cosplay wolves? We sniff out the science behind gene editing, prehistoric DNA, and some eyebrow-raising semantics as scientists clash over whether Romulus, Remus, and Khaleesi are breakthroughs in de-extinction—or just glorified gray wolves with a dramatic backstory. Spoiler alert: evolution is messier than your average family tree.As always... like, share and follow to show us you love us Source: https://www.livescience.com/animals/extinct-species/colossals-de-extincted-dire-wolf-isnt-a-dire-wolf-and-it-has-not-been-de-extincted-experts-say

Guess what!! There's lots more Serpo papers to go through. Today we are going to learn about the planning of the exchange program and the selection and psychological torturing of the team sent to Serpo. Also some weird AI happenings are included in this episode which I don't think anyone was expecting.

This week there's a whole lot going on, but I think it ends with a relevant story about orcas and climate change!Source: Mongolia witnesses skies turning mysteriously ‘blood red’, Mongolia - TimesTravelKiller whales have found new homes in the Arctic Ocean, potentially reshaping marine ecology

This episode we’re diving headfirst into the wild world of backdrop people — a.k.a. NPCs, extras, energy shells, or the folks who might just be here to fill in the scene while the real players evolve.

Alright folks, gather 'round for this hell-raising Fringey Mini. This week, we're diving headfirst into a story that’s less “Touched by an Angel” and more “Touched by Something That Needs an Exorcism, Stat.”We’re talking about the not-so-holy crossover between Latter-day Saint doctrine and demonic possession—yep, demons are apparently freeloading in Utah basements now. From Ruby Franke’s cayenne-spiced parenting tips (hot take, literally) to Lori Vallow Daybell’s poolside apocalypse book club, things are getting possessively weird.We’ll explore how this doctrine is leading to some seriously unholy behavior—like bishops doing bootleg exorcisms, and parents believing the only way to save their kids is to murder them. Not exactly what Jesus had in mind when he said, “Let the children come to me,” huh?Anyway, what do you guys think about JD Vance probably killing the pope?Like, follow, and share if you also think shaking hands with demons should be a bigger red flag.

What’s flying silently through the night sky, bigger than a football field, and shaped like a cosmic Dorito? You guessed it—triangle UAPs (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena), the VIPs of the UFO world. In this episode, we deep-dive into some of the most iconic sightings—from the eerie stillness of the Hudson Valley and the radar-dodging triangles over Belgium, to the mile-wide V drifting over Phoenix and the unforgettable Stephenville shocker.We explore the theories (aliens or top-secret tech?), share jaw-dropping witness accounts, and even a few stories where someone may or may not have yelled at one from a fishing boat. It’s weird, it’s wild, and it’ll have you looking up a lot more often.So buckle up—just not in a black triangle, because we still don’t know where those things are going.

In this mind-bending episode, we dive into the world of biological computers—yes, you heard that right, biological! Australian startup Cortical Labs has just launched the world’s first "code deployable biological computer," the CL1. Think of it as a shoe box packed with actual brain cells running neural networks—talk about bringing your brain to work!We explore how these brainy devices have come a long way since Cortical Labs taught petri dish-grown neurons how to play Pong—talk about giving your neurons some serious gaming cred! But this isn’t just about neurons having fun; Cortical Labs sees this tech as a game-changer for drug testing and even disease modeling, potentially replacing animal testing with something much more... electrifying.We discuss the brainy potential behind using neurons in AI, why biological brains still have the edge over silicon chips when it comes to generalized intelligence, and how Cortical Labs is combining hard silicon with soft tissue in an attempt to take biological AI to the next level. But don’t worry, we keep it light, as we brainstorm the possibilities, from saving power to maybe—even solving some of today’s toughest challenges.So plug in, listen up, and prepare to have your mind wired for some truly futuristic technology! Will biological computing lead us to a smarter world, or will it remain just a neuronic dream? Tune in to find out!

In this electrifying episode of Journey to the Fringe, we dive into the enigmatic world of John Hutchison, the maverick inventor behind the mysterious "Hutchison Effect." Known for his unconventional experiments with electromagnetic fields and Tesla-inspired technology, Hutchison's work has sparked intrigue, skepticism, and even government interest. From levitating objects to disintegrating metals, the Hutchison Effect defies explanation and blurs the line between science and the paranormal. Join us as we unravel the story of this eccentric Canadian scientist, his groundbreaking discoveries, and the controversies that surround his legacy. Is it science, pseudoscience, or something else entirely? Tune in to find out!

Strap in, Earthlings! This episode blasts off into the out-of-this-world lore of Ashtar Sheran and his Ashtar Space Command. Is he an intergalactic protector warning humanity about its nuclear no-nos, or just another celestial scammer? From George Van Tassel’s first “collect call” from the cosmos to the ever-evolving mission of spiritual ascension, we explore how Ashtar’s messages have taken believers to new heights—sometimes literally.We’ll probe (not that kind) the strange interruptions, failed prophecies, and how the movement dodged its own apocalyptic predictions faster than a UFO escaping a radar lock. Whether you’re a skeptic, a starry-eyed believer, or just here for the space gossip, this episode is a wild ride through the galaxy of human imagination.👽 Want to ascend like the enlightened masters before you?

In this episode, we dive into the unexpected future of AI—where robots are either cuddling you in bed or powered by brainy mushrooms. (Honestly, what a time to be alive.)🛠️ AI-Powered Sexbots: China is rolling out next-gen AI-enhanced sex dolls, capable of speech, movement, and even emotional connection (because nothing says romance like a chatbot in a silicone body). The biggest challenges? Battery life, realistic movement, and making sure they don’t accidentally tip over and crush their owners.🍄 Fungus-Controlled Robots: Meanwhile, scientists are turning mushrooms into robot overlords—sort of. Researchers have found a way to use electrical signals from King Oyster mycelium to control simple robots. The goal? Create biohybrid machines that could one day help monitor crops, respond to environmental changes, or even explore space. Because apparently, fungi can survive radiation better than we can.Join us as we explore the weird, wild, and slightly dystopian future of AI, where the choice is between a robot that loves you and a robot that’s literally alive.https://www.popsci.com/technology/fungus-robot/&https://www.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3266964/chinas-next-gen-sexbots-powered-ai-are-about-hit-shelves
