Journey to the Fringe

Thanks for checking out our podcast! We look at fringe topics often neglected, or ill discussed, in a light hearted and open manner. These topics run the gambit from the mundane water pollution, recycling, and tax evasion to the fantastical moth persons, time travellers, and paranormal. For us there’s no cryptid too creepy, topic too trivial, or djinn to dreary. Also we like to do exposes on assholes of the UFO community. To keep things fresh (and also because we aren’t really sure how to start podcasts) we start every week off with a Fringey Mini recent news arti...

Galactic Customer Care
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?

Myco-Machines
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

An international assassination

Was it an accident, or a cold-blooded assassination? Who was behind it, and why? What evidence is there to support the various theories and claims? Join us as we examine the facts, the clues, and the conspiracies surrounding this tragic event that changed the course of history. We will look at: The background and context of Hammarskjöld’s mission to Congo, and why he faced opposition from powerful interests in the region and beyond. The official investigations and inquiries into the crash, and why they failed to provide a conclusive answer. The eyewitness accounts, documents, and testimonies that suggest foul play, such as bullet holes in the plane, sparks in the sky, radio intercepts, and secret agents. The possible suspects and motives, ranging from mining companies, colonial powers, mercenaries, rebel groups, to intelligence agencies. The recent developments and revelations that have renewed interest and hope in solving this case, such as a UN panel report, a Swedish inquiry, and a documentary film.

Hello, I know you probably think that time travel is better left to the likes of John Titor or Andrew Basiago but this week it's me. Not on this episode, just me writing this note here, for you, because I just had to AI with the lights out because I could have lit this MF'r up for like an hour or so... you'll get it, with time.

These minuscule marvels are so new that researchers are still trying to figure out if they're alive or just really good at playing hide and seek. Dubbed obelisks because of their shape, these genetic oddballs might just be the tiniest tenants in our microbiome, cozying up in bacteria like Streptococcus sanguinis. But what do they do?

Interupting your regularly scheduled podcast
Hi Friends, This week we're talking about TV broadcast interuptions, on a podcast. It's not lost on us, but somehow it's fitting. Anyhowwwwwww I feel that about sums it up anyway and now for more of what you're probably here for, the scripts and videos we showed... on a podcast; A complete transcript of the Ashtar command/Vrillon interuption reads: This is the voice of Vrillon, a representative of the Ashtar Galactic Command, speaking to you. For many years you have seen us as lights in the skies. We speak to you now in peace and wisdom as we have done to your brothers and sisters all over this, your planet Earth. We come to warn you of the destiny of your race and your world so that you may communicate to your fellow beings the course you must take to avoid the disaster which threatens your world, and the beings on our worlds around you. This is in order that you may share in the great awakening, as the planet passes into the New Age of Aquarius . The New Age can be a time of great peace and evolution for your race, but only if your rulers are made aware of the evil forces that can overshadow their judgments. Be still now and listen, for your chance may not come again. All your weapons of evil must be removed. The time for conflict is now past and the race of which you are a part may proceed to the higher stages of its evolution if you show yourselves worthy to do this. You have but a short time to learn to live together in peace and goodwill. Small groups all over the planet are learning this, and exist to pass on the light of the dawning New Age to you all. Y ou are free to accept or reject their teachings, but only those who learn to live in peace will pass to the higher realms of spiritual evolution. Hear now the voice of Vrillon, a representative of the Ashtar Galactic Command, speaking to you. Be aware also that there are many false prophets and guides at present operating on your world. They will suck your energy from you – the energy you call money and will put it to evil ends and give you worthless dross in return. Your inner divine self will protect you from this. You must learn to be sensitive to the voice within that can tell you what is truth, and what is confusion, chaos and untruth. Learn to listen to the voice of truth which is within you and you will lead yourselves onto the path of evolution. This is our message to our dear friends. We have watched you growing for many years as you too have watched our lights in your skies. You know now that we are here, and that there are more beings on and around your Earth than your scientists admit. We are deeply concerned about you and your path towards the light and will do all we can to help you. Have no fear, seek only to know yourselves, and live in harmony with the ways of your planet E

What's in a plane: the John Lear story (Part 1 of 2)
Let’s delve into the fascinating life of John Olsen Lear, a man whose journey took him from aviation records to UFO conspiracy theories. Episode Title: “From Skies to Secrets: The John Lear Story” Introduction: John Olsen Lear (1942–2022) was more than just an aviator; he became a central figure in UFO conspiracy theories during the 1980s. Born into a family with aviation roots, Lear’s life took unexpected twists that led him to explore the mysteries of extraterrestrial encounters. Early Life and Aviation Career: John Lear was born on December 3, 1942, to industrialist Bill Lear (founder of Learjet) and his wife, Moya Marie Olsen Lear1. His early years were marked by privilege and curiosity. Named after his maternal grandfather, famous comedian John Olsen, Lear’s upbringing was anything but ordinary. At the age of 14, he flew his first flight, and by 16, he completed his first solo flight. Lear’s passion for aviation was evident from an early age. In 1960, he joined his father’s company as a pilot and public relations representative. However, a biplane crash during stunt flying at his boarding school left him with lasting physical scars and a renewed sense of purpose1. Despite estrangement from his father, Lear continued to make aviation history. In 1966, he and a crewmate circumnavigated the globe in a LearJet, covering 22,000 miles in just 50 hours and 39 minutes1. His daring feats caught the attention of the rock band The Byrds, who immortalized Lear’s LearJet in their song "2-4-2 Foxtrot (The Lear Jet Song)". UFO Conspiracy Theories: In the 1980s, Lear’s life took an unexpected turn. He began speaking about alien collusion with secret governmental forces, becoming a prominent voice in UFO conspiracy circles1. Unlike previous theorists, Lear’s narrative went beyond unidentified flying objects. He claimed that extraterrestrial beings were actively involved with covert government operations

The Giants of Lovelock Cave
In this captivating episode of “Journey to the Fringe,” we delve into the enigmatic tale of the Lovelock Cave giants. These ancient beings, known as the Si-Te-Cah, have left an indelible mark on Nevada’s history and folklore. Join us as we explore their story, the evidence unearthed by archaeologists, and the enduring mysteries surrounding this prehistoric cave. Episode Highlights: The Paiute Legend: The Paiutes, a Native American tribe from Nevada, passed down an oral tradition about a race of red-haired, white giants—the Si-Te-Cah. These giants were described as vicious, unfriendly, and even cannibalistic. According to legend, they wove rafts from tule plants to escape Paiute attacks across Lake Lahontan during the last ice age. The Battle at Lovelock Cave: After years of warfare, all the tribes in the region united to confront the Si-Te-Cah. The giants sought refuge in Lovelock Cave, but the Paiutes demanded they come out and fight. The coalition of tribes surrounded the cave, shooting arrows and setting a large fire at its entrance. Some giants died in a hail of arrows, while others perished from smoke inhalation or burns. Over time, the cave’s entrance collapsed, sealing it off from human contact. Archaeological Discoveries: In 1911, miners stumbled upon over 60 human skeletons inside Lovelock Cave, some measuring an astounding seven to eight feet tall. Subsequent excavations in 1912 and 1924 revealed thousands of artifacts, including mammoth sandals and oversized handprints etched into the stone. The evidence linked to the Giants of Lovelock has fascinated archaeologists and sparked debates about their existence. Controversies and Modern Perspectives: Were the Lovelock giants real historical figures or mere legends? What role did Lovelock Cave play in their lives, and why did they meet their demise there? We’ll explore various theories and discuss how this ancient mystery continues to captivate researchers and enthusiasts alike. Join us on this extraordinary journey as we unravel the secrets of Lovelock Cave, where giants once roamed and left behind tantalizing clues to their existence. Tune in to “Journey to the Fringe” for a thought-provoking exploration of the past! 🎙️🔍

Welcome back, it's part 2 of "how is Chelsie going to pronounce 'Paulides' this week"? Fun fact, this episode actually doubles as a drinking game every time Chelsie pronounces 'Paulides' differently (just a suggestion). Another fun fact, the drinking game is just the sub plot.

Alright, let's get on with this... it's PART 2 of the David PAULIDES MISSING 411 PHENOMENON, this episode we're focusing more on the MISSING, but also David Paulides.

Some of that stuff includes, but is not limited to; the criteria to make it to his very spooky disappearances list, some critiques of his work, a look at some of the disappearances that David Paulides deems as so spooky it defies all logical comprehension, the NATIONAL PARK SERVICE CONSIPRACY, then some talk about logic and errors... plus...MORE!

Fringe Mini- DUNE: washed away
Oh hello, I didn't see you there. You must be wondering about this episode we're both here listening to. Firstly, I recommend just having a listen to see what's going on, it's not that long. It is a (Fringey) mini after all. But if you insist on reading the episode notes as well, best I can recall is that it's about rich people who are trying to combat how scarily oceanfront their houses are becoming. The answer of course; sand dune. Does it work? I can't remember so I guess you're going to have to listen to the episode anyway, but I think we were already in agreeance that you would.

Out of place artifacts (or OOPArts)
I feel like there would have been a layered joke if we released this episode on a different day... But these episodes take a lot of work as is so you get what you get. Just note I thought about layering my delicious jokes to you. You're welcome. In this episode, we journey beyond the boundaries of time and reason to uncover artifacts that challenge our understanding of history. From ancient screws to inexplicable walls, each discovery invites us to question the narratives we’ve been taught. The Ancient Screw of Russia Our adventure begins in Russia, where a research team claims to have found a one-inch screw embedded in a rock dating back 300 million years. Is it evidence of extraterrestrial technology or a mere fossilized sea creature? We’ll unravel the mystery. The Spark Plug of California Deep within the Texan soil lies a spark plug encased in a 500,000-year-old “geode.” Was it left behind by prehistoric mechanics, or does it hint at otherworldly visitors? We’ll explore the controversy surrounding the Coso artifact. The Baigong Pipes of China Our journey takes us to White Mountain in China, where pipe-like formations emerge from the earth. Are they fossilized trees or remnants of an ancient civilization? We’ll dive into the Baigong pipes’ secrets and their connection to Lake Toson. The Great Wall of Texas In Rockwall, Texas, a seven-story-high, 20-mile-long “wall” baffles scientists. Was it built by giants, aliens, or natural forces? We’ll examine the evidence and unravel the enigma behind this colossal formation. Sabu Disc of Egypt Our final stop leads us to an Egyptian tomb, where an unusual disc was discovered. What purpose did it serve? Could it hold the key to lost knowledge? We’ll explore its significance and the theories surrounding its origin. Conclusion: As we wrap up our journey, we’ll reflect on the tantalizing questions raised by these out-of-place artifacts. Join us next time as we venture deeper into the fringe, seeking answers that defy the ordinary. Remember, dear listeners, reality often hides its most intriguing secrets in plain sight. Tune in to “Journey to the Fringe” and embark on a quest for truth beyond the boundaries of time and space.

These stairs are up to something!!!!!
TGIF, and in F day spirit I' m about to let AI do my job! Not happy about it? Too bad because no one is paying me to do this! Before you venture !forth! please set your expectations low and listen to the episode as this description may or may not have anything to do with the what you listen to. Example, your host is not named Professor Curious McSpecs, but i'm sure you knew that? Enjoy! Ladies and gentlemen, gather 'round! 🌲👣🔍 This latest episode is wilder than a squirrel on an espresso binge! ☕🐿️ Picture this: deep in the heart of the woods , where GPS signals go to die and compasses start questioning their life choices, there they stand— the Mysterious Stairs . 🌳🚶‍♂️ Now, these aren’t your average IKEA steps. Oh no! These stairs are like the lovechild of a Rubik’s Cube and a cryptic crossword puzzle. Each step whispers secrets from the beyond, like, “Hey, did you know Bigfoot’s favorite dance move is the ‘Sasquatch Shuffle’?” 🕺🏽👣 But wait, there’s more! 👀 These stairs may or may not be connected to strange disappearances . People vanish into thin air, leaving behind only their half-eaten granola bars and a confused owl. 🦉🌲 Our intrepid host, Professor Curious McSpecs , armed with a magnifying glass and a pocket-sized conspiracy theory, dives headfirst into the stairwell rabbit hole. 🕳️🔍 He interviews eyewitnesses, like Old Man Jenkins, who swears he saw Elvis moonwalking down those steps one foggy night. 🌚🕺 And let’s not forget Staircase Stan , the local handyman who claims he fixed these stairs once. Apparently, they demanded a non-GMO, gluten-free railing. 🌱🛠️ But the real kicker? The stairs lead to alternate dimensions . Yep, you heard me right. One step, you’re in Idaho; the next, you’re at a tea party with Cthulhu and the Loch Ness Monster. 🍵🦕 Remember, if you hear banjo music while climbing these stairs, RUN . And don’t forget your hiking boots—because nothing says “adventure” like blisters and existential dread! 🥾😱 “Journey to the Fringe”: Where the stairs are wonky, the disappearances are spooktacular, and the Wi-Fi signal is nonexistent. 📻🌌

If you've got it, haunt it.
**The longer this goes on, the more we let AI do our job, so I must disclose that I did not write the following description, and for authentic purposes (that's why you listen to us right?), I did not proof read this and on quick glance, it is not even close to being correct. The headings are though, so my job here is done. Welcome to the latest episode of “Journey to the Fringe: if you've got it, haunt it” ! 🎙️ In this spine-tingling installment, we delve into the eerie world of haunted objects. Buckle up, because things are about to get spectrally peculiar ! 👻 1. “The Anguished Man” Painting: Imagine a canvas that screams louder than a toddler denied ice cream. This painting, aptly named “The Anguished Man,” is like a tortured soul trapped in acrylic. It’s so haunted that even Bob Ross would say, “Happy little ghosts? Nah, let’s paint some existential dread.” 2. Carl Pruitt’s Grave: The Unofficial Origin of “Final Destination”: Carl Pruitt, a regular guy who just wanted to enjoy his morning coffee, accidentally tripped over his shoelace and fell into an open grave. Little did he know, he was auditioning for the lead role in “Final Destination.” The Grim Reaper was like, “You’re hired!” Now every time you spill coffee, Carl’s ghost chuckles from the afterlife. 3. Thomas Busby’s Chair: The Ultimate Game of Musical (Haunted) Chairs: Thomas Busby loved his chair so much that he cursed it. Legend has it that anyone who dared sit in it met a grisly end. It’s like a deadly game of musical chairs, but instead of losing a seat, you lose your mortal coil. The chair whispers, “Sit down, my friend. Your fate awaits!” 4. “The Hands Resist Him” Painting: This artwork makes “Mona Lisa” look like a cheerful stick figure. In “The Hands Resist Him,” creepy hands emerge from a portal, trying to escape the canvas. Critics say it’s a metaphor for unpaid taxes. But honestly, it’s just a portal to a parallel universe where hands have better things to do than pay bills. 5. Ötzi the Iceman: Frosty with a Side of Spookiness: Ötzi, the ancient mummy found frozen in the Alps, isn’t just a popsicle with abs. He’s also a ghostly tour guide. Imagine hiking those icy peaks, and suddenly Ötzi appears, saying, “Welcome to the afterlife! Mind the frostbite.” 6. The Bronze Lady Statue: She’s Got a Leg Up on the Competition: This bronze lady statue has a secret: She moonlights as a dance instructor. At night, she waltzes with other statues, teaching them the cha-cha and the tango. But beware—cross her, and she’ll cha-cha your soul right out of existence. 7. The Myrtles Plantation Mirror: Reflections, Regrets, and Ghost Selfies: The Myrtles Plantation mirror doesn’t just reflect your face; it reflects your deepest regrets.

An empire built on sauce will be lost in the mud... as the saying goes
In this riveting episode, we delve into the enigmatic realms of forgotten history, where whispers of cataclysmic events and lost civilizations echo through time. Join us as we explore two captivating mysteries: the Mud Flood Hypothesis and the enigmatic land of Tartaria . The Mud Flood Hypothesis: What if entire cities were buried beneath layers of mud and forgotten by modern civilization? The Mud Flood Hypothesis proposes just that—a radical theory that ancient advanced societies were wiped out by massive floods of mud. We’ll examine the evidence, from mysterious architectural anomalies to suppressed historical accounts, and ponder whether our textbooks have been keeping secrets from us. Unveiling Tartaria: Was it a vast empire lost to time, or a mere myth? We’ll journey through the fog of history. From the enigmatic Tartarian maps to the phantom cities, we’ll unravel the web of intrigue surrounding this elusive civilization (but maybe say it's a stupid theory a couple times also) Remember it may not be a good theory, but it's a fun one. Also remember, truth lies at the edges of convention. Tune in to “Journey to the Fringe” and let your curiosity guide you beyond the veil of accepted history. 🎙️🔍✨ Oh also here is that guy saying to look directly at a solar eclipse: https://t.me/TartariaHistoryChannel/15290 Music credit: Gaming 🎮 lofi Hip Hop beats (Twitch and streamer friendly) By: MoonSoul source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=217PWQlTYMI&t=242s

Just when you thought corporations couldn't get more evil, they do! But are we shocked? Somehow, yes. We're just waiting for the Orca's to grow legs and avenge us all.

The other Queen of Canada
In this episode, we explore the bizarre and disturbing world of Romana Didulo, a self-proclaimed “Queen of Canada” and a leader of a fringe QAnon-linked movement. Didulo claims to have been appointed by the “White Hats” and the “Galactic Federation” to overthrow the Canadian government and establish a new kingdom. She also promotes various conspiracy theories, such as the COVID-19 pandemic being a hoax, the existence of a global cabal of satanic pedophiles, and the imminent arrival of a “Great Awakening” that will usher in a new era of peace and prosperity. We also look at the school they inhabited for a while. Join us as we journey to the fringe of reality and reason, and uncover the truth behind Romana Didulo, the Queen of Canada.

How attracted are you to birds (from space)?
We hope your answer to the title of this special episode is at least under, say, 3 or 4 on a scale of 1 - 10 however if it happens to be over you're still welcome here. Just probably keep that to yourself. This fine Friday (or any other day of the week you may be listening to us, the fine is because you're listening) we're talking about the BLUE AVIANS! You may be wondering, why, would an episode about Blue Avians be titled such as this? Who are the Blue Avians? Where am I? and why am I listening to Journey to the Fringe? I would love to answer your questions but the episode is right here for you to listen and quite frankly, I have better things to do (no I don't). Catch ya on the Blue Sphere or whatever they're calling it these days.

The man, the myth, the borey... George Noory
We're back! And We're not just back because it's Friday... we're back with important business, important a$$hole business ... in and around the paranormal & or UFO community because we love to hate them. It's one of our favorite things. This week, our targets are set on George Noory. We're taking a look at what he did before Coast to Coast AM, what he did on Coast to Coast AM and what seems like the millions of things he's tried to sell us while barley paying attention. It's incredible, to be sure. There's singing, there's dating, there's CIA agent in Morroco themed restaraunts, it's fucking wild! Anyhow, I don't think I have anything more I can add here more than this very episode!

Fringey Mini- Who you gonna call? Friar Benati! **
Nothing we could ever say or do would ever prepare you for what Taylor is about to anoint us with. Or something to that tune. Have you ever thought about what would happen if say, someone such as the pope, needed assistance with the artificial inteligence ethical conundrum of .. whatever century we're in? I assume its a future century with a sentence like that! Well, he does need help, and help he gets from a Friar named Paolo Benati and if that is not shocking enough... to mark this occasion I had AI write me a nice little joke; Why don't friars play hide and seek with artificial intelligence? Because good luck hiding from the Pope's AI, it always finds you! That about does it for me, because I can't top that. See ya Friday! https://www.americamagazine.org/faith/2024/01/19/friar-paolo-benanti-artificial-intelligence-ai-ethics-vatican-246989 **Please note that you may only call F. Benati if you are the Pope and have specific questions related to his (F. Benati) professional opinon on the ethics of artificial inteligence ethics. Only.

The epoch of its time: The Falun Gong part 2 of 3
In this episode of Journey to the Fringe, we explore the controversial teachings of Falun Gong, a Chinese spiritual movement that claims to offer a path to enlightenment and salvation. We examine the origins and evolution of Falun Gong’s founder and leader, Li Hongzhi, who is revered by his followers as a god-like figure with supernatural powers. We also look at some of the most contentious and bizarre aspects of Falun Gong’s doctrine, such as its rejection of modern science, race mixing, medicine, and art, its denunciation of homosexuality, feminism, and worldly pursuits, and its belief in the imminent end of the world and the salvation of the chosen ones. Join us as we delve into the fringe of Falun Gong’s teachings, a journey that will challenge your assumptions and beliefs

The epoch of its time: The Falun Gong part 1 of 3
In this episode of Journey to the Fringe, we explore the history of Falun Gong, a spiritual movement that emerged in China in the early 1990s and quickly gained millions of followers. We trace the origins of Falun Gong’s founder and leader, Li Hongzhi, and his teachings that combine meditation, moral philosophy, and supernatural claims. We also examine how Falun Gong attracted the attention and ire of the Chinese Communist Party, which launched a brutal crackdown on the movement in 1999, banning it as an “evil cult” and subjecting its practitioners to imprisonment, torture, and organ harvesting.

Paranormal Bigfoot 2.0
Hello, Bonjour, A double welcome back this week because 1.) it's new episode day and 2.) we're re-visiting an oldie but a goodie... well, it was a goodie but the audio was a badie hence why we've chosen a rejuvination this week! We're looking at high strageness and bigfoot this week. I bet you thought bigfoot was ALL high strangeness, but regular 9-5 bigfoot gets weirder. We're talking bigfoot's vague association, involvement, even piloting of UAPs. We're talking mimicry, missing time, lights, sounds, trees, portals, and all that fun super weird stuff that will make you not even want to look in the direction of a tree again. We also talk about the battle between bigfoot researchers and why they can't just all get along because we all have one thing in common, the love of bigfoot. From afar. That should be clarified because after this episode I don't even want to look at a forest (home of bigfoot)... or potentially even follow footsteps into my house.

Fringey minis - Space whales incoming...
Hello! And,! Welcome,! TO! Fringey mini Wednesday. The episodes where we meet you half way through your week because we miss you... and today! We're talking about Twain, less specifically, contact! With a whale, named Twain! That's right I said contact!! I was really stuck for what to write there, I think that turned out... alright... there's a reason Taylor does the openers... I just don't excel in the fine balance of delightful, obscure and satisfying opening words like he does. Anywho, it's a mini so I think that satisfies the requirements of 1.) vaguely letting you know what the episode is about and 2.) divulging just a little too much 3.) exclamation points! That's the Fringey way, plus all the other secret requirements I can't tell you about.. unless I mixed them up again. This is NOT the article Taylor referenced in the article because I couldn't find that one but this one will work if you need more info.

Welcome to 2024 and boy do we have the show to start you on your 2024 path of fringiness. That's right we continue to start our year off with a history of violent strikes, but this time we have focused in on one asshole company that has seemed to lurk in the background this whole time.

2023 - A Year in Review
This has been quite the year at Journey to the Fringe... and other places, probably, so prepare yourself for the episode you've all be waiting for... that is, a year in review. Did someone die, were aliens found, were any cults thwarted, did British Andy finally start going by the correct title and did someone finally taste wooly mammoth meat? There are not really answers to these questions, other than in our hearts, but we provide an update anyway on some of the stories we’ve been following this year. Give it a listen (it is a long one so really prepare yourself however you see fit)

Fringey Minis: A rustic farm experience... featuring McDonalds
Have you ever wondered how and why fast food restaurants pick the locations that they do? Probably not, it's usually a pretty straightforward answer. Today we look at a story making the rounds and the youth are Tocking about (I'm pretty sure that's the right use there) where a McDonalds opened up in such a remote location that it doesn't even connect to the electric grid and requires a generator to be operational.

Ho Ho Ho Merrrrry Fringemas, like regular Christmas except really......weird. It doesn't get much more Christmas-ey than scaring the shit outa your beloveds, or whatever you prefer to call em. Right, we're celebrating the season talking about the age old tradition of spooooky ghost stories. The original mistletoe, actually I don't think that works or even makes sense. Forget that, and i'm too far gone to delete a thing! We talk about that, whatever that is and then we get to the meat and bones, the delicious part, the wooly mammoth meatballs if you will. Then we will make our best attempt to spook the seasonal depression right out of you and into some jolly spirits with some stories, A la Fringe style. That about does it, for further, better information we'll catch ya in the episode.

In this episode of Frinegy Mini, we're all finding out about the article "McDonald's turns to sedition act as boycott bites despite PR campaigns" together. As it should be. That's right, this episode has absolutley nothing to do with Christmas other than time related proximity to the Jolly man's arrival.

It’s mini day!! A hump day blessing from yours truly, Journey to the Fringe. The blessing this weeks takes the form of induced lucid dreaming by scientists, theorised to be by Freddy Krueger by some. If you’re here looking for a description of this episode to see if you’d like to listen or not, just go ahead and listen because i’m not even sure how much this write up has to do with the actual episode. Sometimes it's only vaguely, if it all. Sometimes we just want to wish you a blessed day and this is the only way we know how.

Yes I definitely titled this slightly misleadingly for the clicks, there's really no mention of the new world order in this episode. What there is to talk about though is a movement of the third world during the cold war to instill more fairness in the world economic order. We talk about the Bandung Conference, the Non-Aligned Movement, the G77 and the New International Economic Order. Music Credit 2 Hour Synthwave MIX - L.A.

The paranormal abroad
Welcome back my dudes.... isn't that what the bros are saying these days? Neither here, nor there. What is there is this weeks episode of Journey to the Fringe. This episode requires subtitles as we're going international this week in our search for some new and exciting paranormal creatures because we're bored of the old ones! I don't want to give it all away in one place but... this week we're talking eggs, feet, clothing, remote controls (maybe), apartment buildings and lanterns. As well as office culture, fractions (1/2) AND the winning lottery numbers. Sound paranormal to you? Not in the least...But it is! And also new and exotic. With that, I believe I have been precisely vague enough to give you the very least amount of information I possibly could to entice you to listen to this very episode. Enjoy bros!

Hey! [insert name here]! Was that us beconing you from the abyss of podcastland or a Skinwalker, trying to lure you out of safety, or running alongside your car? I guess we’ll never know. As you may or may not know by now, this week we’re talking about Skin walkers, the yee naaldlooshii, Navajo lore for a shapeshifting witch. We learn and grow a great deal in this episode as we learn about the background of the Skin walker and what makes a skinwalker, a skinwalker. Apparently every reference we have made to a skinwalker prior to this has been wrong! You know, I really have no other information to put here that you can’t find in the episode so I would highly recommend listening to that if you’re looking for more info!

It’s that time of year again, time to talk about giant stuff. That’s a thing right? It happens at least every 3 years in our experience. This trienal, we’re talking about the giant of Kandahar. That’s the enormous humanoid creature allegedly encountered and killed by a group of American army soldiers on a mountainside in Afghanistan. Snopes tried to debunk it but we’re sceptical, of the debunkers of course. We also talk about L. A. Marzulli, size judgement, plus! More military giant stories that I can't just give away here.

Hello journey-ors, I am back, in a way you wouldn’t have known I was gone! Don’t you love when an episode comes together to make a perfectly edited episode? Well I do, and i’m feeling fresh, and scattered! Does anyone actually read these? Anywho, this week we’re talkin’ not carbon dating, in a mini way! That’s right, they found a really f***ing old wooden structure. How do you know, you might ask? They guessed! Well, kind of, probably.. it was luminescence dating… that probably wasn’t the focus of the article, but my job is to just put words here that make sense. Just kidding, it’s not my job. Now that i'm reading this article I can see why Taylor had trouble pronouncing Aberystwyth University. That’s probably enough information to put here for a mini, see you Friday!

That's my policy." and the Mayor says "That was a Shakespeare in the Park production of Julius Caesar , you moron! You killed 5 actors! Good ones!"... I'm guessing not, it's a pretty obscure reference... anyhow this story is kinda like that... I'm going to have a good think on why my brain decided you needed to know this association, but that's for me, you need to enjoy the episode!Music credit: Dark Sci-Fi Horror Synth - Transcendence // Royalty Free No Copyright Background Music by: White Bat Audio source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsY5bkr9XWo Article: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/police-rush-to-report-of-a-ritual-mass-killing-but-it-was-just-a-yoga-class_n_64fb7481e4b08f0f4ebd9024

You may have heard of conspiracies but have you heard of UN-conspiracies?
In this episode, we delve into one of the most enduring and controversial mysteries of United Nations and African history: the death of Dag Hammarskjöld, the second UN secretary general, who died in a plane crash in 1961 while on a mission to prevent civil war in Congo. Was it an accident, or a cold-blooded assassination? Who was behind it, and why? What evidence is there to support the various theories and claims? Join us as we examine the facts, the clues, and the conspiracies surrounding this tragic event that changed the course of history. We will look at: The background and context of Hammarskjöld’s mission to Congo, and why he faced opposition from powerful interests in the region and beyond. The official investigations and inquiries into the crash, and why they failed to provide a conclusive answer. The eyewitness accounts, documents, and testimonies that suggest foul play, such as bullet holes in the plane, sparks in the sky, radio intercepts, and secret agents. The possible suspects and motives, ranging from mining companies, colonial powers, mercenaries, rebel groups, to intelligence agencies. The recent developments and revelations that have renewed interest and hope in solving this case, such as a UN panel report, a Swedish inquiry, and a documentary film. Don’t miss this thrilling and informative episode of Journey to the Fringe, where we uncover the truth behind the death of Dag Hammarskjöld.

Need some small talk? Here are three cryptids
In the intro Taylor intrigues us with an article about the fermi paradox, you may remember the Fermi Paradox from another Journey to the Fringe Episode... where we also discussed it. The article discusses being a technologically advanced civilization focusing on messages that are more likely to give you a positive response by looking for planets giving out radio communication that see odd or manufactured rather than put out signals blindly.... and that is a much more brief summary of the article than even the episode Have a listen, give it a read. Onto come cryptids! We've got a really incredible line up of Cryptids; the Loveland Frog, The Hopkinsville Goblin and Vegetable Man. We go through each beautiful, in it's own right, cryptid sighting, genitalia, pointers on small talk and banter for your next dinner party or event, and of course our own opinions.

Sex, cults, and espionage: the other history of post-war Japan part 3 of 3
In this final episode on post war Japan we are going to cover a whole bunch of topics. The scientists the US decided not to charge with war crimes, the Unification Church cult which mass marries people to strangers and requires its female members to have sex with the cult leader to purify their wombs, and a porn star turned attempted assassin. There is a lot in this episode so I hope you enjoy! In the intro we give an update on the avian flu that we did last week. Turns out it is for more than just avians!

Sex, drugs, and espionage: the other history of post-war Japan Part 2 of 3
This is a follow up to our previous episode, and guess what??? No need to rerecord! you get the unfiltered (but heavily edited) story. We take a look the US and its involvement in shaping post war Japan, the part we didn't cover in the previous episode. Oh boy was there some shit going down behind the scenes on the previous episode and we are going to take you behind that curtain. We're talking escorts, drugs, theft, torture, and love?? (if you count love of country). In the intro we discuss the bird flu issue the world is currently going through. It turns out birds ARE real and they are falling ill all over the world. What kind of soup do you feed chickens while they are recovering from the flu? None, you cull them... Ha, sadness :(.

A brief history of post-war Japan Part 1 of 3
So I want to talk about some shady dealings that went down in Japan, and to do that I'm pretty sure many of us need a history lesson. So here it is! Japan like you've never thought of it, let's call this the pre-anime post-ninja period because lets face it we need historical markers. We start this episode looking at the little colonial power that could and some of its impact on Asia that is usually forgotten about. from there we look at all things post war. Starting with the SCAP tribunal that governs the land, it's promise of openness, and then opennesses quick reversal as it seemed slightly inconvenient. Then of course we move to SCAP leaving and ensuring a horrible deal for Japan to have to just put up with the US for a while. At one point a car gets vandalized and the bro inside gets very upset, cops are called... its a lot of fun. Come for the listen and stay because there are two more episodes in this mini-asian excursion! In the intro we discuss shrinkflation! That little known buddy of inflation that pops his head up where you least expect it.

Andrew Basiago: former chrononaut, future president?
We unfortunately had troubles with our next episode in the Japan series so we have to re-record and that will be out next week. For now though let’s focus on our learned friend Andrew Basiago. Now Andy is an interesting guy, he received multiple degrees and practiced law in the state of Washington for many years never receiving a complaint leading to penalty. Although that isn’t out of the ordinary most lawyers aren’t on record stating they travelled through time for their country and also travelled to Mars alongside a young Barack Obama. Oh by the way he was also told by the powers that be that he will be president in the future. Now this episode is going to be a wild ride and as always we don’t supply seatbelts, so like… hold on or something. In the intro we discuss human dna that is well above our pay grade (most things kinda are since we do this for free). Are humans all that different from bananas? Apparently more than I remember but you should still listen.

Japanese warcrimes
*TRIGGER WARNING* This episode includes discussion of sexual assault and cannibalism, listener discretion advised, even more than usual Just like the episode, i'm going to start on a nice, happy note! Taylor has that part (the happy part) this week and he tells a tale of cave paintings holding way more information than we ever thought possible! Cavemen, amiright? Onto the good, the bad, the Japan. We do not have a feel good episode this week for you, this week we're talking about how horrible Japan can be? Has been? Either one works, choose whichever you wish. Japan is not all Ningen, ninjas, suicide forests, Haikus and Godzilla it has a surprisingly (to some) really horrible past. There's alot and in this episode Chelsie had to narrow it down to comfort women and Japanese Cannibalism in this episode. First up is comfort woman, Chelsie goes through the when, what, where and how (why not included) to give you an idea of a what the sex slaves of the Imperial Japanese Army endured (AKA Comfort Women). We look at the Nanjing Massacre for set up and then move on to Indonesia and share story shared by Jan Ruff of her experience. Shockingly Japan would largely deny any of it ever happened. Onto Cannibalism, at the hands of Japan of course. We talk about some specific examples like the Kokkoda track, WWII and the Suzuki unit as well as the American Pilots. We know what you're thinking; "maybe they had no other choice and it was a matter of survival" well, we've got news for you! And it is that it was definitely not that. Brief appearance by George H. W. Bush.... we talk about him, he doesn't actually want to be on our podcast. That is an assumption as we never actually asked him. Annnnnnnnyway, Big Gulps huh,? Welp, see ya later!

The dark knight (of cydonia) strikes again: Richard C. Hoagland part 2 of 2
In this continuation of our look at Richard C. Hoagland we really start to look at some of the crazier things he has done throughout his career. We will cover that time he wrote a book while in jail (also why he was in jail); how he bullied his way into claiming he came up with the plate humanity sent out on the Pioneer Space Probes; his claim that Nasa is both occult and ran by Nazis; his theory of torsion fields which could be used for free energy; that time he plagiarized a 9/11 truthers information for a whole lecture; his claim to have discovered the Abydos Hieroglyph; and that time he got banned from Coast to Coast AM. We also look at what he's been up to recently including his wrestling with technology and claim Star Wars was real! and happened in our solar system! Seriously... enjoy! In the intro we talk about cop city, it is not the fabled utopia for the police, at least if the protestors have anything to say about it. We will catch you up on this crazy story.

The dark knight (of cydonia) rises: Richard C. Hoagland part 1 of 2
We continue our tour through the notable personalities within fringe communities and this time we are setting our sights on someone who has been part of this scene for close to 60 years, Richard C. Hoagland. In this episode we look at his biography from his start as a young space and science museum curator to his heights of science advisor and speaker which he still dabbles in today. From there we are going to look at the claims he has made and people who have critiqued him throughout his career. This is going to be a whirlwind of a series (there are 2 parts so stay tuned). In the intro we discuss the lovable screw formerly known as Prince Andrew and currently known as British Andy. What kind of shenanigans has he gotten into this time?

Anomalous Antarctica
We can't get enough of "selected topic" and it's conspiracy theories lately! This week, Antarctica!

We've got; The entrance to hollow earth which includes the south pole hole. Listen with caution because you're about the get one of the catchiest songs in the universe stuck in your head. IYKYK. Next; lost civilizations where the Piri Reis map is mentioned and other evidence from google maps a plenty But wait, there's more! Hidden Pyramids! Chelsie is confused and telling the future! Is the Antarctic being guarded by the Military?....! It gets better! UFO Base(s?) & Crash landings where look to Linda Moulton Howe for some stories of high strangeness in snowy continent. Finally, Nazis and the Antarctica, because we know how much you reading this, love a good Nazi conspiracy story, We take a close look at Hitler's frozen base and the Russian documentary that reveals operation high jump organized by Rear Admiral Richard E Byrd had ulterior motives. Legend of the Russian documentary says they encountered mysterious UFO force ending the mission early and ending in many fatalities. Presumably Nazis. Listen for more info. And that about sums it up, w ell not really, you'd have to listen. To start the episode Taylor has another depressing water episode, this time it's second hand human's poisoning our water not our direct poisoning of water this time. What a relief.

Lunar New Year, Lunar Conspiracies!
The lunar new year is upon us and werewolves couldn't be further away (timing wise anyways). But I bet you're wondering, the moon isn't fringy... well yeah I never doubted how astute and attractive our listeners are. What is fringy are some of the things people believe about the moon. Is the moon the same size as the Sun?? Is it really a secret spaceship or home to a secret space program??? Are some of our old favourite people going to make an appearance in this episode? Why don't you give this a listen and see! In the intro we discuss birds and their ever present association with the downfall of civilization and Christmas. #birdsarentreal Music Credit: Space ambience compilation [Copyright and Royalty free] by: Your Life Ambience source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N70idTULbz8&t=23s The Unknown - Spooky Conspiracy Music (Copyright Free) by: JohnnyDog Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrUt8-K8kJs

Inn to space: The Robert Bigelow story
Welcome back to yet another episode of Journey to the Fringe now playing: Season 3. To pump us up this week as our warm up to the main event, Taylor is sharing a (vaguely) relatable and/or inspiring story of a newly elected congress member George Santos... who lied about everything. It really is everything including graduating, where he's worked and being Jew(ish). We also don't know where he lives or where all the money he has came from... to list only a few mysteries in this here description. Good luck New York state! You're going to need that pump up because this week we're delving into all that is Robert Bigelow, millionaire... or was it billionaire, I can't remember right now. I'm sure it says in the episode. We talk about kid Bigelow's dreams and limitations of heading to space, and what got him to the eccentric m/billionaire status that he became. We look at a couple of major "projects" on the Bigelow time line. First up is the history & happenings of Bigelow aerospace. B.A. develops the Bigelow Expandable Activity Module (BEAM) under contract by NASA and still remains at the ISS to this day, and we also talk about the plans for the inflatable space hotel. What ever happened to that? Next BULLET POINT, Anomalies research . Where we found out how deeply his interest runs. What comes of this interest? The Bigelow Foundation, of course, in which he funded research by Budd Hopkins, John E Mack, Bob Lazar and Linda Moulton Howe. Bigelow also purchases multiple properties (ranches) undergoing paranormal anomalies in order to conduct research, also, Area 2000. A radio show, not a ranch to our surprise. Then there is the National Institute for Discovery Sciences, the infamous NIDS, that studied all things anomalies incl uding cattle mutilations, black helicopters, and more things than UFOS, they even study Skinwalker Ranch. We do talk about Skinwalker ranch, only a little though. Then there's the Bigelow Chair of Consciousness Studies... Wow there's alot to discuss, i'm moving on, time for the next BULLET POINT Consciousness studies this is where we talk about why he developed this interest and what he did with his interest which is basically holding a contest(s) seeking the best available evidence of survival of consciousness...etc, i've been typing for a while now so im just going to end that here. What do we think about Bigelow? You better believe that's also in the episode. Don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

A further history of violent strikes
We are starting this year off with one of our annual history lessons. This one is on the struggle of the working class to amass rights. Today we will talk about the Thibodaux Massacre and the Vancouver general strike of 1918. The Thibodaux Massacre is the story of newly freed slaves working on sugar plantations in Louisiana. Although the slaves had been freed, the wages and living conditions shared many similarities to their past lives. The workers strike and shit goes down. The Vancouver general strike was only a one day event that was spurred on by the death of Ginger (a local union organizer) but it is an important part of Canadian history and part of a chain of massive strikes that ripped through Canada in the late 1910s. Definitely worth the listen. In the intro we update the story of the underdog San Francisco Police Department banding together and pushing legislation to allow them to kill civilians with exploding robots. We also speculate on other possible markets to sell exploding robots, our answers may surprise you (they will not we picked prisons).

2022 - A year in review
What a year and with all the things that were going on including this podcast! Now between the time these these beautiful little podcast episodes were lovingly handcrafted and then left overnight to rise (not necessary but that's how we get the episode sizes we're looking for) to the end of the year things can change. Well fret not friendly neighbourhood listener for we are here to fill you in on what has changed (Making us the only new source you need! (you're welcome)). What do we have updates on? Well: Steven Donziger has been up to many things what with his courtcase against Chevron and the climate crisis continuing on in it's crisining ways; JFK... for a man that has been dead for the better part of 6 decades surprisingly he has had a busy year; Julian Assange's friends in the media have put together a super group song to send their love down the well (not really... but kinda); British Andy the plucky young 62 year old scamp appears to be having a little spat with his brother which means he's sleeping on the couch... I don't know which but it's not the one at Buckingham palace. Also his armed security is being taken away. The RCMP have finished their commission into Gabriel Wortman's mass shooting... Surely this means there is substantive updates!; Chelsie has decided that Mothperson grew a set and continued on its creepy ways in the Chicago area; Florida's land may be more likely to face substantial property losses in the near future; The Climate change headlines have continued to amass; Kazakhstan's protests have provided some changes to their government; and The power grids have certainly been an electric topic all over from Ukraine to the US. Sit back have a few drinks and let the last moments of 2022 pass with your best friends Taylor and Chelsie (We are going to show up so if you don't it will be real awkward). In the intro we discuss killer police robots or something. I don't know you can't expect me to remember everything. Just listen.

The Big O - Orgone Energy
So sex... yup sex... and its not even a misleading start to an intro. We are talking about the magical sexual energy that is throughout the universe. Lets take a step back. This all stems from our episode on the Montauk project where orgone energy was offhandedly included. Well this brings us the story of Wilhelm Reich, a man who was friend and colleague to Sigmund Freud and curing cancer with a box you quietly sit in for hours at a time. its the story of a brave (or mentally unstable) psychologist, who while fleeing from the Nazis made unbelievable discoveries. Wilhelm had quite the life, so why not sit back and learn about the sexual revolution coiner himself.

The Mothperson returneth
Hello! And welcome to Journey, To, The, Fringe. The description where I write down the highlights of what you will be listening to in this episode. On this episode we start off talkin' about Brazil, and what is going on in Brazil that is so Journey to the Fringe worthy? Why it is the confederados! Taylor sheds his new found knowledge with us all enlightening us about the US Civil war and where those who did not want to rejoin the United States went in the aftermath... Brazil, of course! Where, today we can still find the weird subgroup, the confederados, maintaining their presence and never really died after the U.S civil war... it just went to Brazil. Next up the main feature because nobody puts Mothman in the opener. It's Mothman. Chelsie has put together a finely curated list of hair raising sightings from the Lake Michigan area (of the Mothman). We have some fun going through a hand full of these sightings and we discover probably the most important question that you will ever need to ask the passenger of your vehicle; Mothman flies beside the car, do you roll down the window? Other highlights (which probably wont save your life like that driving tip, could also apply to friendships..etc) include; glowing green eyes, nightmares & paranormal activity, the feeling of being watched, screaming, chirping, many discussions about wings, a religious experience, gargoyles, UFOs, Witches, multiple sightings by the same person and comparisons to bigfoot.

Living through this again: reincarcation
Well this is one of those topics that might not seem like a topic in our wheel house... but here we are... and what's a wheel house? stay tuned to learn all these things on Journey to the Fringe today. Today specifically we are looking at reincarnation, specifically children and there memories from past lives, There are many categories of reincarnation so it is important to limit this category with the above sentence. We are specifically going to look at the researchers, the process and the cases they looked at. Come listen to the stories that this includes! By the way the wheelhouse is the area of the ship where the steering occurs. For some reason, in the 1950s, this term was picked up by baseball announcers and reporters. They began to refer to a batter’s “wheelhouse,” by that meaning the area of the strike zone where a batter swings with the most power. in the 1980s, the meaning of this term extended once again. It came to mean, and still means, an area or field in which a person excels. That was bugging me so I had to look it up In the intro Chelsie discusses the horrifying potential of butterfly people inhabiting our tornados and doling out buttery justice to some and buttery svaiorness to others.

Philadelphia is where you go to experiment
Well hello there, would you like to learn some of the fringe historical lore that has shaped and made fringey topics what they be today.. Of course you do, we have people look into these things for us so we can provide you what you desire (or something like that). Today we are looking at the Philadelphia experiment, more specifically the story of how people started to believe a naval destroyer simply vanished from one harbour, appeared immediately in another and then reappeared in the original harbour with grave effects on the crew aboard. I would say more but I already said lots of words, there just all in the episode, so go listen!! In the intro we discuss Beyonce's interest in the JFK assassination and the lack of new records (...well Beyonce's name comes up).

Titoring on believability- the John Titor story
What a treat we have for you this week start to finish. Start is the great disaster of May 2, 1845 that started with a clown who was advertised to sail up the river Bure in a washtub pulled by four geese. It ends in tragedy and I won't be elaborating any more in writing. It's too tragic. Middle and end is the great tale of John Titor. We laugh, we cry, we host a podcast, we travel through time at a regular pace as we listen to the episode as we tell you about John Titor (the time traveller). John's first appearance is on Coast to Coast AM July 29, 1998. Most time travellers chose to call in on the "time line" phone line to Art Bell however, John chose the most time traveller recommended line of communication, the fax. (That's how we know he's legit). John then pops up on an internet forum on the Time Travel institute form and later on the Art Bell BBS forum.... The episode goes on. We learn all about John, his 'name', the year he comes from and what it looks like where he comes from in the year 2036, why he needed to time travel including what he was looking for, and some other stuff about the future. You have to listen, i'm not just gonna give you that information. We have a Q & A with John.. well, kind of. We go through some questions that were asked of John on the various forums he posted in to give you a better idea of John as a time traveler, and person. Topics include time travel ethics, mode of transportation, how time travel works, breaking time travel paradoxes, radiation and so on. Towards the mid-middle we look at predictions made by John Titor of what the future looks like. Well we're here in the future and out look not so good. Woops, that was a spoiler. I'll just leave that in... might as well spoil everything, there's also a post office, the glaciers are doing well and what the hell is VR. Happy now? Finally, at the end we look at the possibilities of who John could be and what EXACTLY was going on. The John Titor story is a mystery no more. It's a time travel story for the ages.

A Halloween Creature Feature: Vampires and Horsemen and Werewolves... Oh my!
It's getting spooky out there! the air is a little cooler, the branches just sway in a more menacing fashion, our fashion sense just leave our minds as we are forced to prepare for a season which global warming assured me was a thing of the past... I have gotten ahead of myself. Halloween is a safely scary time of year where we allow ourselves to experience the creepy the menacing and the horrific from the a safe an removeable distance. With this in mind we thought it would be a good time to look back at some of these historical but safe scaries for your referencing pleasure. Today we bring you the vampire, the headless horsemen and the werewolf. Rather than spoil it all with words that I am typing now and am too tired to elaborate on, maybe the best way to learn about this episode is to give'r the old listening treatment. in the intro we talk about how one kid's urine addiction got his whole family kicked out of a state park (misleading but accurate in the best ways I promise).

This episode is cursed
Oh hey, that title didn't stop you... that's cool. anyways I guess I should tell you what you signed up for but with your clicking compulsions it seems like you really don't care. Okay I guess we can talk about this whole thing then. Imagine, if you will, that you come across some thing, that shouldn't be.... but you take it anyways. Well sometimes these things have some prior conditions attached and boy howdie are we gonna look at some weird shit (sorry kids). we look at a silver vase from Italy, a dead Egyptian ruler known as Tutt, a diamond of hope, a baseball team that really pissed off goats, and Genghis Khan's truly terrible ends for the world once he's gone. The world of curses is a weird thing. You never know where or when these curses will hit them. So join me won't you for this beautifully terrible situation?? We discuss some creepy sexy time (maybe) by ghosts on American Airlines flights in the intro.

Go to Hell, Michigan
It's another spooktacular Halloweeny episode! But first we must get the important information about protein and pee out of the way. Shockingly all the protein micros you're trying to hit are destroying the environment. Article here; https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/eating-too-much-protein-makes-pee-a-problem-pollutant-in-the-u-s/ Enough about that, let's talk about Hell... and also hell adjacent things! Are you nervous about your journey into the afterlife after some questionable life decisions? Well if it's anything like Hell, Michigan it may be just ok. What with the canoeing and kayaking, hell hole bar (1 of 2 restaurants) , put-put, ice-cream, get married, become married (for a limited time), and even get a degree from Damnation university...gift shops! Not quite ready to go to Hell yet? You can still own a piece. gotohellmi.com Next up in our tour of Hell stuff Devil's bridge in Ceredigion, Wales (1 of many, many bridges belonging to the Devil) where the himself Devil makes a deal to retrieve a woman's misplaced cow. There's much more to it than this but that kind of sums it up. Journey with us now to Satan's Kingdom state recreation area, Connecticut. Looking for a cool and nice float down a river in Connecticut, well for $100 for a family of 4 look no further! 4/5 on trip advisor... except for this one that Taylor found. Next up, a couple churches! Churches you ask?! Yes! The first is Frauenkirche in Munich, Germany in which houses the footprint of the Devil and St Mary's in Lubeck, Germany which houses a large slab that was supposedly picked up by the Devil to be hurled at the Church to destroy it, he didn't do that though because he got a wine bar. In both instances the Devil's incredibly good nature was taken advantage of by those pesky humans which kind of makes up sympathize with the devil wink wink . Now venture with us over to Slovenia where we will find more things related to Hell, this time with a cave. This time there is less tricking of the Devil, we were starting to feel bad for him. The cave; Jama Pekel. It's quite steamy given the warm environment in the cave meeting the outside when its cold. The steam combined with spikey stalactites and Palaeolithic human remains found in the save make for pretty sus Hell circumstances. 4.5/5 on Trip advisor, bring cash! Last but certainly not least the Devil's highway, the previously named route 666. The road is hailed as one of the most haunted places in America, with a long, bizarre history of all manner of weirdness, bad luck, inexplicable accidents, ghosts, apparitions, spectres, and various other unexplained phenomena. The road also has an abnormally high number of fatalities. You're in for a good episode! As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes

(Satanic) Panic at the daycare!
*This episode includes discussion of alleged child molestation and suicide, viewer discretion is advised. Do you remember the 80's? cocaine fueled business men suspendering and Raeganomicsing everywhere... at least as far as movies have led me to believe. It was a different time with different problems and today we talk about one of those problems, Satanic Panic. Welcome to a world where every tree has another side where a satanic cult is conducting ritualistic animal sacrifice to influence impressionable kids. We take a look at three of its facets: daycares, Dungeons & Dragons, and music. These were the biggest hit areas and we still today see the remnants of what happened during this period. Take a listen to hear this bizarre history! In the intro we talk about our favourite Brit, British Andy! Now his mum apparently just died so we let you know how he's dealing with this loss.

How sure are you your country exists?
Gather round ye old radio over yonder and listen up, it's story time. Tis a story of a mysterious man from Taured, who may have time travelled from a country in another dimension.... Chelsie & ye old Taylor discuss the mysterious story of John Zegrus, or as he's more commonly referred to; the man from Taured. We take a ye old look at where he came from, the hotel he was put up in Japan, what happened to him (kind of) and exactly why he's so damn mysterious. We then look at the inspiration behind the man of Taured, and i'm not going to ruin it for you here so you better listen. A gentle threat. But first ye must make it through the tale of 500 million PFAS, tale as old as time and 4.9017892 million times more dangerous than you ever could have imagined, ask Nepal, or ye old Taylor because you're listening anyway.

That time Gary hacked NASA
This week we're looking at what exactly is making holes at the bottom of the ocean, except it's not exact because no one knows. It's a good thing this is only the opener this week, so don't dwell on it! What we really want to talk to you about this week is Gary McKinnon, you know, the guy who hacked NASA. It was the biggest military hack of all time in which he (Gary) went looking for evidence of flying saucers and extraterrestrial activity. We talk about his version of events and what he found and then we talk about the wikipedia version of events (they differ a little). Then we talk about what comes of all this tom foolery Gary gets up to. This story has it all, hacking, NASA coverups, dial up internet, spreadsheets, a single stolen picture, Gary, threats, accents, UFOs, the shut down of the US military district of Washington network of 2,000 computers, jail, law things, blocked extraditions and SEO to optimize your search optimization for your business!

Black Knight's goin' round
Have you ever looked up at the sky and wondered if there was something more out there. Well the answer is yes... obviously, there's like stars and shit up there. Maybe you meant is there intelligent life up there... well yeah and it's been orbiting the earth for 13,000 years. Confused well then welcome to the confusing world of the Black Knight satellite. We look at the theory of the satellite throughout its possible sightings by scientists and hobbyists. From Nikola Tesla to the modern day come listen to the weird story that is the Black Knight satellite. In the intro we talk about a Philadelphia grown coupling of judges whom really fucked some kids over. they're like if leaded gas went to law school. Don't believe me?

To the Stars Academy of something or other
To start us off on this Journey ,, to the Stars Taylor once again hits us with some hard truths so labelled "Poland deploys troops as dead fish pile up in riverbank in toxic disaster" from the Washington Post August 13, 2022. Was the water poisoned? We don't know, apparently you can't test fish cause of death. If you have answers, let us know so we can claim your Zloty. Onto the reason you may or may not have ended up here, perhaps! To the Stars and all the eventual corporations they become and then stop becoming. We start off by taking a look through the website to get a feel for just what we're getting into on t his episode and it doesn't help! We're met with an unhealthy amount of merchandise, followed by an opportunity to invest and many more, very confusing things. The confusing doesn't end there (with To The Stars, not the general host confusion we're all guilty of sometimes). On we forge to the start of To the stars... a record label, then media and entertainment company founded by the one and only Tom DeLonge. To the Stars grows and becomes the media division of a larger holding company; To the stars academy of arts and Sciences founded by DeLonge and THE Harold Puthof, he may sound familiar to you (please see episode: Someone saw it coming: The remote viewers and the government... and while you're listening to old episodes might as well listen to Dinosaur Ghosts as well). Right and Jim Semivan was there too. It was founded as a public benefit corporation by Semivan, Puthof and DeLonge. Better listen for more details on that because i'm not typing that all out here. This new shiny To the Stars Academy of Arts and Sciences is composed of aerospace, science and entertainment divisions. Weird right? After we find out a little bit of the roots of TTSAAS we move on to introductions of the major people that make up TTSAAS which includes some of the people already mentioned. We look at who's involved including the board of directions and extraordinary advisory board and we learn a little bit about each of them. Moving on, we take a deeper look at each of the legs of TTSAAS that make up the giant umbrella tree of works. First is obviously the big money maker; the Entertainment division (To the stars inc.). Next up Science & Aerospace , then the VAULT (Virtual analytics UAP learning tool), and finally the ADAM research project (Acquisition and Data Analysis of Materials). All mixed up in this giant pile of confusion are unknowing materials purchased for research, military colabs, media being put out with both fiction and non fiction components, and box car racer but I don't want to give too much away. You're in for a ride. Not to be missed; Taylor's lawyer jokes. Not about lawyers just lawyery things.

Today we will be discussing the sullen cap enemrials of Africa's often overlooked (but rarely forgotten) tufty topped main mushrooms... checks notes oh thank god something different. Have you ever looked back on your rose coloured childhood's perfection and wondered which one of those celebrities ended up way deeper in the paranormal than you'd expect? Well wonder no more cuz we have you covered! Today we look at Tom Delonge and his rise from lowly frontman of Blink 182 to... a UFO guy... I promise it's more exciting then that previous sentence that was used for comedic effect. Strap on those seatbelts that we told you to definitely buy for liability purposes and get ready for the twisty journey that is Tom Delonge. We will also be touching on Tom Delonge's company To The Stars Academy and the troubles I have with it's structuring.

Opposable thumbs are an asset
Wild card episode! This week Chelsie has dazzled us with her lacklustre ability to throw together an episode and featured on the menu this week... humanoid. We talk about what makes a humanoid cryptid, who knew opposable thumbs were so important? We also kind of discuss why it's important to have scary cryptid humanoid stories. Cryptids covered include a random mashup of a brief encounter with the Deerman, a regular length Qalupalik encounter, an unnecessarily long Melon Heads debriefing, Matlox, and finally Lizard man of scape or swamp. All (cryptid) humanoids, can you believe it! Taylor ends the episode by circling back to Deerman to regale us with a tale of chronic wasting disease, a very real creepy thing that can be found in deer. Buckle up! To start us out Taylor reads to us an article from the Intercept titled "Bank of America memo revealed "we hope" conditions for American workers will get worse. Need we say more? We do of course... much more!

Five Eyes Burgers and Spies
I've been waiting so long to make this episode (partially due to the name I came up with). I welcome you to the most intrusive group you've never heard of: the five eyes? In this group we look at the history of this group, where it traces its roots back to World War 2 and the code cracking collaboration between the US and UK. We then follow it to its expansion to include more countries and its impact during the cold war years and the subsequent war on terror. We finish off with the Snowden leaks and the terrifying implications of this group. I would tell you more but I want to save some surprises for the episode. In the intro we talk about the elusive (but delicious) Columbian hippo. Didn't know that Columbia has hippos?? then better give it a listen!

In talking about the heavy hitters in such programs as project Stargate; we discuss the weird connection to Scientology, the background of each person, the impact said persons had on remote viewing as well as their goings ons now a days. There's a surprising amount of privatized companies that came out of the remote viewing careers, and coffee of mug. We talk about some targets, predictions, and read some declassified government documents some of which include; The Oklahoma bombing Famous drawings Chinese Nuclear facilities The Red Brigades Muammar Gaddafi Soviet submarines Mars, Jupiter The Iranian hostage crisis Predictions of what the future will look like (not listed in episode notes) The origin of the human species and More!

Someone saw it coming: Remote viewing and the government
Have you ever heard someone say a word or phrase and immediately you have a vivid view of that person or place, like you are there??? well then you were either born in the wrong time, or lacking in the charisma department (or some combination of the two) because the government was paying people for skills like this for a long time. Today we introduce you to the history of remote viewing. So get ready this is a ridiculous ride. We start off with the inception of the research into this phenomenon, We're talking Menloe Park (Stanford Research Institute), Uri Geller (Please don't sue) and some weird science (no not the movie, the science!). We look at how this rag tag team of misfits was able to turn a little gumption and can do attitude into a CIA contract! We then look at the life of this project, all the government offices it passes through, the claims it makes, the people it hurt and the friends it made along the way before it was thwarted by an evil Willy. We have some laughs, we have some libations, we have some snacks!! And you should too, you earned it after listening to this podcast episode after all (that's a binding contract now so you gotta listen). In the intro Chelsie finally learns what we all know about cats (and telling you what it is we know will immediately vilify us to half our viewership so I choose to let you listen instead of read.

The tale of Ningen, whale person of the south
Welcome back to another riveting episode brought to you exclusively by Journey to the Fringe. The opener this week, a Vice World News article (we love u Vice) read so eloquently by Taylor. Re: Canada’s Going to Share UFO Info With the US, Officials Say. Sounds interesting right? That sure set the bar high. Now for what you're all here for; the Tale of the Ningen, whale person of the south. That and our witty banter and boy do we ever have both on this episode. What is the Ningen and where does it come from? Find out along with us, i'm sure we'll all be surprised! Probably one of the only cryptids almost exclusively caught on camera. We discuss eye witness accounts, characteristics you would need to look out for if you were to be in search of one, Noah's arc and other things. Try to keep up!

Russian secrets just below the surface
So I know this may be a misleading title, what with the war in Ukraine going on right now... But my intentions are pure! We need you to know about the Unidentified Submersible Objects (USOs) that have been thoroughly recorded by our Iron Curtained friends. No longer do you need to sit up and night and speculate what kinda stuff would a UFO get up to if it went under water. We look at stories from the book Russia's USO Secrets: Unidentified Submersble Objects in Russian and International Waters by Paul Stonehill and Philip Mantle. This book takes an in depth look at many stories of USOs conveyed through military documents, first and secondhand information and as discussed on Russian forums. From the Mundane orbs of light entering and exiting water from a distance, frog like sounds being heard outside submarines, projected maps flashing before sailors eyes, mother ships and swimming humanoids, this episode has a little bit of everything to keep you engaged. This is not a paid advertisement for this book, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and wanted to share it with you all. In the intro Chelsie shares the ramblings of her child which let us delve into the tale of the Bunnyman.

David Wilcock - The finale? (part 5)
Opening up this weeks episode Taylor regales us with yet another toxic tale this time in regards to tyres (also pronounced tires) Shockingly car tires produce vastly more particles of pollution than exhaust, that's the gist, listen for further details. At long last we have finally made it to the end of our David Wilcock saga. We've laughed, we've cried, we've cringed. In this episode Chelsie picks up where she left off in a big year for Wilcock, he releases the Cosmic Secret with Corey Goode and first we're analyzing the cover art THOROUGHLY. After that we find out about the not-for-profit organization that Wilcock registers in the state of Nevada (please see: Not just a hat racket the Panama Papers) as well as the for profit business Divine Cosmos LLC. On this journey (we said it!) we delve into a great article put out by Vice that analyzes the Wilcock, Goode duo. Into the COVID years David has somehow amassed a large following on social media where he posts with astonishing frequency. His creatively titled: "David Wilcock on the Great Pandemic" has received millions of views and spouts off about the illuminati deep state being responsible for the pandemic that only he can save everyone from. But you must pay! A familiar tactic at this point. We talk about the many "courses" David has put out, we learn about his involvement in the hover car that may never see the light of day (spoiler alert the wings will tuck in to fit in your garage), a divorce and a chipmunk....That and all the juicy details about the cease and desist letters! Last but not least we end this episode on missed predictions and a list of reddit comments about David Wilcock. Love him or hate him, you're in for a treat.

David? Wilcock? Part 4!
In our opener this week we may have more insight than ever on how life started on earth and probably other planets Taylor hits us with an article from www.Asia.nikkei .com titled “Key substances for life found in Japan Probe’s asteroid samples” Japan launched satellite Hayabusa2 at an asteroid which has now returned to Earth with samples that include amino acids (they make proteins) and the key to life. Suggesting that life may be abundant in the universe if the environment is right. Now onto what you've all been eagerly waiting for... more David Wilcock. This episodes starting line is December 21, 2012 and it's a bit of a let down. We discuss the evolution that David has been on since this failed prediction. In random order we talk about: the release of a few books; interviewing techniques (you probably don't want to use those); his career with Gaia; a gun; a marriage; surprisingly not much mention of the band; lawsuits; copyright infringement. We also introduce you to Corey Goode (Not the good(e) Corey though, that's reserved ONLY for Feldman and Haim). Corey's a David Wilcock likeness which also provides for some pretty goode entertainment. He likes Blue Avians, loves stiring up drama and was apart of a secret space program, more information to be found contained within our podcast. Special guest appearance by Linda Moulton Howe regarding copyright infrigement. As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

David Wilcock part 2, part 2??? (AKA part 3)
My god that was quite the cliff hanger of sorts, but just wait until the next one... they get odder. Anyhow today Taylor is wrapping up his coverage of David Wilcock (don't worry there's so much more (unless that worries you, then worry!)) In this episode we mostly wrap up Mr. David's personal biography that stops 15 odd years ago, probably just got too busy. As the saying goes time makes a fool of us all (bless you philosopher Philip J. Fry). Once we finish this beauty off we look at some of Mr. David Wilcock's...ahem "science" and how the galactic space lazers are going to turn us into jesus salamanders (embellished for comedic affect but you be the judge of the embellishment). Anywho this guy fancies himself a scientist or at least a competent applier of the craft so we are just going to explain his excelent application of it... yup that's it. We end on wuite the cliff hangar and it's such the cliff hangar that I can't even describe it's set up to you. So just trust is for once in your life person who is reading this!!! We have your best interests at heart ;) In the intro we talk about that Assange guy, who is definitely alive despite the US government's possible best efforts.

David Wilcock Part 2??
The question mark is because you can never be 100% sure (plus from what we've been learning it may have liability absolving powers so why not harness it's legal powers). In this particular portion of the David Wilcock saga we are going to tackle David's bio as he wrote. You have never seen such beautiful literature in english before I promise. Now this may seem like an odd way to go but promise me we re building character... if you want to follow along jut check out his website. I can mostly affirm to you that that is all that I am saying in this episode. I wish I could say more but that is all we are going to do, lest we receive a cease and desist letter, which you need to know is a real possibility. This particular story revolves around so many things that you would not expect so just put those headphones on and get what you get... Sorry if it's bad we try really hard :( In the intro Chelsie discusses the most recent updates to the Gabriel Wortman story and how maybe the police gree to be buds with the mass killer.... hyperboles to be had in that sentence but surprisingly only a little.

Edgar Cayce Part 3?? Just kidding David Wilcock... Part 1
OMG GUYS THE DAY IS HERE!!! The thing that inspired this podcast to be a thing! That is David Wilcock... I know weird right. Well Listen and see the story. Like a good soap opera this story is going to have many twists and turns, Some overly dramatic characters, and some poorly contrived plot lines. And this will all be told over waaaaayyyy toooo many episodes. In this particular portion of the David Wilcock saga we are going to tackle the origin story, where a young unsuspecting David (Li'l Davey at the time) Is bitten by a radioactive Edgar Cayce on his way home from blogging school or something (what do I look like someone who knows this stuff??? give me a break). We look at the beginning where he's just a li'l megalomaniac working with his plucky little blog... by the way did I mention we have a lot of purely opinion based things in this episode? We follow his early career to the point where Mr. Wilcock really makes a name for himself and spoke to the god maker that is George Noory on Coast to Coast AM. Come share a laugh with us (because if you don't laugh it's going to be awkward with all the laughing we're doing) as we start our real long look at the enigma that is David Wilcock. In the intro we look at a story out of the UK saying that tyre pollution (yes tyre, crazy right???) is more impactful pollution now than tailpipe exhaust. What does this mean for your hotwheels collection?!?!?!?! have a listen and find out! As always don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

Edgar’s on the Cayce
Welcome back for part 2 of Edgar Cayce! But first we have an opener to talk about which is a lost city in the Amazon, including pyramids and roadways. From an article from Nature, the settlement is incredibly complex home to advanced urban societies. These large settlements date back from before the Europeans arrived contrary to our belief that this was pristine nature and the Amazon was only home to small nomadic tribes. With the help of lidar, which uses lasers, researches found 26 settlements with walled compounds and pyramids. Back to Edgar Cayce, we've arrived here in Viriginia Beach with him in the more mature, legit chapter of his life... I wonder if he knew he was going to do that? Here Cayce, with the help again of interested supporters incorporated the Association of National Investigations. A membership organisation created to help build a hospital and help fund studies to scientifically research Cayce material. Of course he is continuing giving his readings. We see his "business" take off, then stall, then take off again...he hits his fair share of speed bumps. Eventually incorporating the association for research and enlightenment (A.R.E). After Edgars death (spoiler alert) we talk about some of the theories Edgar put forth in his trance state including Polygenism, Atlantis and the race that lived there and it's death ray, California falling into the ocean, the second coming of Christ, reincarnation and much more. We then talk predictions Cayce made that came true including the stock market crash of 1929, world war 2, blood analysis. Finally Chelsie takes us through some predictions that have not come to pass.... yet including overcoming the effects of aging, the gas-less motor, more conflict in the Persian Gulf (only here because anyone can predict that), the evolution of humans in relationship to the spiritual world, records from past civilizations will be found beneath the paws of the Sphinx, China... and other stuff so listen to the episode. Cayce's impact is still seen today pioneering Holistic medicine and patient centred care, he pioneered dream interpretation, past live work and mediation in the Western world, plus other things we're sure.

Water we talking about
Hey you! yeah you! Wow I can't believe that worked... anyways, ever think about water? And not just a majestic narwhal just friggin' thrashing hard on a hammer head shaped guitar (you know, just the common sea metal imagery). No the shitty parts where we cause near cataclysmic levels of damage to it with pollution (which spells certain doom to the aquatic metal scene). Well don't worry we are here to bring you up to speed but not with that common mumbo jumbo, no the stuff most people neglect for more polite talk. We sum this up nicely in a fictitious every person scenario to knock off as many of the areas of pollution we can, We first look at the impact of salt on our waterways, then we look at the cars (mainly tires and brakes and there pollution). We move on to pharmacology's impact on our flowy fellow (that's water) of course our friend fireworks make an appearance. We finish off, as most stories do, with death and it's impact and also how our treatment facilities may not be doing as much as we would hope. Won't this be a time??? In the intro we discuss whether poop can make you immortal. The answer, maybe but it's not your poop. you should probably listen to the whole story if that last sentence stirred thoughts of action in your mind.

Like the Predator but without the copyright... Glimmerson
Welcome back for another week of words being slung here at Journey to the Fringe Taylor starts us out with a rare feel good PR of Meri Myon who had her birthday cake replaced by American soldiers for her 90th birthday. Doubling as a PR stunt this was also the anniversary of the date the 88th infantry division made it's way into Vicenza April 28, 1945. The entree of this episode is the "new" (ish) phenomenon the Glimmerman, or Glimmerson as we prefer here at Journey to the Fringe. Chelsie takes us through the common qualities attributed to the Glimmerson, or Predator like beings who are commonly described as appearing like fumes or a distortion among many other creepy things you made need to know to identify your own Glimmerson. We try to decipher what exactly this thing is and as always, eye witness accounts are a plenty, including Jan Macabe! Source as promised: http://www.brumac.mysite.com/JANs_Phenomenon/JANs_Phenomenon.htm Source: https://www.phantomsandmonsters.com/ Finally we end off with a few observations about the Glimmerson including the fact that it may be hunting, probably us..

Is this disease real? Morgellons Disease
Medicinal science is one of those things we generally put on the back burner as a given (Let's just leave out the whole COVID thing for the purposes of this statement). The doctors and scientists in this field generally have a handle on things and at least know when something needs treating and when something does not... right??? Let me introduce you to the world of Morgellons disease, where you could ask the crazy man with all those red suede fedoras who lives down the street (you know the guy!) and he will be able to give you as accurate an answer on Morgellons disease compared to the average doctor. what is it??? what are the symptoms??? is it caused by aliens??? what's that behind you??? take a listen and find out (or just look behind you cause we don't answer that one). We start by looking at purported cases of Morgellons disease as it arises in the early 2000's and how individuals grappled with both its symptoms and its perception in society. Along with this we also look at how this disease may be a symptom of internet group think. After looking at the cases we look at what different groups think about this disease. We look at Wikipedia, WebMD, and the Mayo Clinic to see the vastly different framing of what this disease is and what should be done when dealing with those afflicted. We finish off on what I would consider the least fulfilling ending I may have ever had, there is no answer you just gotta digest all the info you're given and either be content in the incompleteness or gather the gumption (and education) and find the answer yourself. I knew you had it in you!!! Please bring your own disinfected seatbelt for this one because we ain't supplying with these kinds of germs (maybe) in the air. In the intro we discuss a meteor that fell into the ocean. Nothing too exciting it might juST BE ALIEN TECHNOLOGY!!! At least according to a Harvard professor... and sure this may not be the first time he's claimed this, it still makes this click baity paragraph correct!

The one, the only Richard Doty Part 2
To start us out on this episode Taylor is regaling us with an article from the Guardian about PFAS which includes where and also what they are and how they're affecting your life whether you like it or not! It's all very horrible and complicated. Next up Richard Doty ... again! Who needs no introduction, especially if you listened to our last episode. We're finishing up this 2 part episode on this d-bag and up next on the Ricky D journey we take a look at the Majestic 12 which we find out about in the Aquarius papers which, surprise involve Bill Moore (see episode 1). Planted by Dick? Probably... Majestic 12; a committee appointed by President Truman made up of 12 very high officials to figure out about the UFO problem. During this part of the expose we get the pleasure of listening to a beautifully executed interview between George Knapp and Richard Doty. Up next on Richard Doty's hit list; our high strangeness sweet heart, Linda Moutlon Howe. Why would Linda be a target of government disinformation by Doty? Perhaps it was her extensive work into the Cattle Mutilation Phenomenon? Anyhow Richard Doty presents Linda with a very interesting official document outlining the governments ties with Extraterrestrial biological entities and the rest is history. Richard Doty now lives a nice life slanging speeding tickets and giving interviews to the likes of Steven Grier on E.T life. Infuriating? You betcha!

The one the only Richard Doty Part 1
Ricky D Part 1. Join us on our 2 part Journey to the bio pic-expose on a strange, slippery individual by the name of Ricky D. To start we take a look at the back ground of Richard Doty as a special agent in the Air Force office of investigations (AFOSI) in Kirtland Airforce base working as a counter intelligence and disinformation agent. Ricky D has a long history of feeding disinfo into the UFO community which is hard to put together, based on all the lies, Don't worry because Chelsie has put everything together for you, we got you. To set up our story we start with Doty's first victim in our story is Bill Moore (not Nye) who penned the infamous Roswell Incident as well as the Bermuda Triangle and The Philadelphia Experiment. Moore struck a deal with "Falcon" to get a glimpse into the government's UFO knowledge by feeding disinformation to the greater UFO community. Spoiler alert we're pretty sure Richard Doty is "Falcon" Next victim Paul Bennewitz, an engineer with his own business that designed instruments for such places as NASA and the airforce. Paul also had an interest in UFOS, like most of us. Paul bore witness to some strange lights over Kirtland airforce base and upon reporting them to the proper authorities was introduced to Richard Doty. To which Richie D promptly destroys Bennewitz life. We have a confusing mash up of lies, the NSA, abductees and heavily embedded UFO conspiracy theory royalty which includes Dulce, New Mexico, hypnotic regression (Myrna Hansen), Majestic 12 and so on... in which Paul quickly descends into madness being told by the government he is right and feeding into his innocent beliefs in extraterrestrial life. To start off our episode this week Taylor regales us with a Nessie sighting hot off the press from anomalien.com -- Taylor relays Tom's story of a strange shaped sighted in the Loch that is Ness much to our dismay this does not lend to Chelsie's theory of Dinosaur Ghosts. She still has faith in her theory.

It may not actually apply to us but if your not a telecommunication conglomerate, the CRTC is a terrifying Sauron like force so we are just going to play it safe. Today we expand a historical piece of Canadiana known as Heritage Minutes... it was almost house hippos :( We take a look at an incident that really should have had it's own minute on Canadian television to shine, the Shag Harbour incident. But hey now it gets a whole twentyish minutes so take that basketball! This is the story of a UFO (as written by the RCMP) crashing in to the harbour. What wackiness will ensue from such festivities? Why don't you let your ears have a peak and find out! In what could (and probably should at some point) have been it's in episode, in the intro we discuss a bombshell 9/11 commission report released in March and the implications it has against the Saudi royal family and then president George W. Bush. This should e getting talked about more but it was released almost a month ago now and I bet you will be shocked by what get's discussed.

Whatever this episode's about - The Stone Sculpture Edition
Have you ever looked at rocks and thought "man those are some neat rocks"? Well some of our ancestors looked at rocks and thought "man those rocks could look neater". Welcome to the world of megalithic petrosculputures (or rock sculptures for our more discerning listeners). Of course you know of some of the more famous examples of this like Stonehenge and the stone sculptures on Easter Island. Today we explore two such examples you may not be aware of that are shrouded in mystery. For those who think I got lazy in naming this episode you gotta trust me, listen to the episode... it's clever, it's good! Our first portion turns to Central America (mostly Costa Rica) where ancient inhabitants decided it was a good use of their time to cut and shape giant spherical rocks for an ancient sport know as Bo-wli-ng... At least that's the reason I assume (and the other explanations just don't cut it). Come listen to the pride of Costa Rica! (the rocks... not us... yet) We then turn our eyes to Laos where we discuss the ancient plain of jars. What this plain of jars site lacks in creative naming, it more than makes up for in mysteries and enigmas. Why did an unknown civilization build them? Why were they placed where they were? Why are they not known about? well some of these may be answered and well maybe Henry Kissinger makes a surprise appearance. In the intro we discuss updates to the Gabriel Wortman case, as per our sacred oath. And we also talk about a study you can participate in if you have psychic powers and an at home DNA test!

Just when you thought the schools were safe
My god can you believe what's happening at our schools?? It's out of this world! And by that of course I mean the kids are seeing UFOs. Come with us as we look at our tinier, less cultured, and certainly less educated (sorry to those of you in our audience yet to complete the 6th grade). Come with us as we look at mass UFO sightings seen at schools. Our first stop is in Westall, Australia where a UFO is spotted landing and then taking off from a school yard during school hours in the 1960's. We look at the sighting from many points of view and then look at how this sighting has been viewed over the years . Our next stop is in 1994 Zimbabwe where a private shool, out on recess when a UFO lands in the school yard and entities are spotted around the landed craft. There are mistresses, psychic powers, prophecies, and suspiciously silken haired aliens in this story so I wouldn't miss it. In the intro we discuss the fun side of high gas prices, clearly seeing that the oligopoly above us will not let the prices drop. We explore a lawsuit brought against a gas station for it's prices.

A calendar is worth 300 years
Have you ever thought the years since 2020 have been pretty lackluster (to say the least) and yearn to escape to a different time??? Then boy do I have a conspiracy theory for you. What if we actually live in the year 1725. Let me introduce you to the phantom time hypothesis. That roughly 300 years between 600 and 900 AD only occurred on paper. There is a lot to this theory, we have to get you caught up on calendars and boy did you not even know you were behind... But you are so this is why we do this stuff. Seriously like you probably don't really know how leap years work, but don't worry we got you. Once you know way more about leap years then any functioning member of society frankly should we are then going to forcibly feed evidence down your gullet of an absence of evidence that things happened from 600 - 900 AD, like some sort of goose having it's liver primed for foie gras. "But why would people fake these years?" you may honk at the farmer... that is me in this scenario. Well don't worry, unlike a goose farmer I will ensure you know the why, at least eventually. Seriously the theories as to why 300 years of our history come at about the 40 minute mark, because we need to explain the theory first. If you can't wait though it's because Otto the 3rd wanted to rule in the year 1000 AD. Yes there are reasons not to believe the phantom time hypothesis and we will cover that right at the end (because seriously come along for the ride before you realize its only to the liver harvesting facility (some may think I beat this metaphor to death, but it was worth it for the delicious livers! (kay I'm done now I promise))). Until then please try to follow along and have fun with this, it's a weird theory but it get's us out of the 2020's! In the intro Chelsie decided it would be a good time to go through a vast swath of climate headlines from the last month.

Power grids are f****d yo
In a continuation of last weeks episode we are talking about power. This week specifically the many weaknesses our infrastructure for moving power has. This is the stuff we know and others know is integral to our society and we just let it sit everywhere just like... there... mostly unprotected... China knows it, Russia also, people with drones and white supremacists too. Hell the US targets this stuff abroad when they go and war there. So what are these weaknesses I now say you ask me well it could be the interwebs, could be drones, maybe guys with guns could even be the Sun. Let's have a listen and see some examples from the recent past and just stress a little. Heck maybe we learn the answer to our problems could be eagles (was Gandalf right???) In the intro we talk about the ultimate left the text message on "read" scenario. India accidentally bombed Pakistan and didn't say anything... Did hilarity ensue?? (god I hope so).

Powerplants are f****d yo
Well what with the Russian invasion of Ukraine there certainly is a lot going on in the world and we have handcuffed ourselves confining this podcast to fringe topics. Well there's fringe parts of international conflicts too! Let's talk about vulnerabilities in our own back yard. Power, ever heard of it? It's what the astronauts use! And like the astronauts, this mighty electron transfer known as power creation is as vulnerable as a metaphor (see it should have been a simile but those guys are well protected). "But why?" you hopefully ask, well I'm glad you did (or this episode may have been misplaced). It could be the hacking, the drones, the random killings, the climate... hell even just a pissy Sun could take us out. So saddle up, engage that generator and ensure an unobstructed 50 minutes to find out how it all goes down. Maybe it's the bees, ever since the 90's ended the killer bees have really been under the radar, you know they've been plotting something. In the intro we stay absolutely on topic and cover a small aspect of World War 2, that's right the original world war! It's relevant and topical I promise, come find out why it applies to the Russian conflict... and no I don't mean history repeating itself it's a modern event.

Jumpin' Jack Flash (with those springs in his heels)
Do you ever think about leaping great distance to be able to slap your enemies only to leap away with such ferocity they are unable to raise a counter attack?? First off weird that someone else had this thought but welcome to your new folk hero the infamous Spring Heeled Jack, the terror that turned faces red with handprints at the mere uttering of his name. Today we will discuss this master of the jump and assail that brought London to attention and created a cultural craze for half a century. Does he have horns??? Does he breath fire??? Is he a robot from the future sent to ensure the humility of the Victorian age and bring about an early end to the age of European empire building?? DID HE WEAR A HELMET???????? Best you listen lest a leaping assailant hear you skipped this episode. In the intro we talk about the newest financial leak that dropped thousands of Credit Suisse's clients information into the hands of journalists, Will something be done in response to seeing what type of money the banking industry will happily shield from prying third parties? :,( Don't forget to follow and listen to any other episodes in our catalogue that may pique your interest.

Spirals in the sky, or is it a new messiah????
Today we take a trip to a phenomenon which occurred in this millennia!! An event commonly known as the Norway Spiral. A grouping of streaks of light forming a corkscrew like shape over the skies of Norway in 2009 and vanishing just as mysteriously as it arrived. What was it? has it been seen before or again? let's take a listen and see if there's a good answer. We also took the time to lay out Project Blue Beam, a very common conspiracy that seems to show it's head when you least expect it. We take the time to take this conspiracy back to its roots and see what it's all about (I would tell you more but the rollercoaster is more fun without a description). In the intro we discuss the Gabriel Wortman case updates that have been coming out recently, and the flagrant cash grab the Royal Canadian Mounted Police have pushed in its wake. It is so ridiculous that you can't miss it!.... well I guess you could and your life would predominantly be unchanged, but you may always wonder what it was you missed and have to carry that with you for the rest of your life mayhaps passing it down to further generations to always wonder forever altering your gene pool... and we can't have that so lets do this.

Did they really do an episode on dinosaur ghosts?
Have you ever wondered why there are only people ghosts? Like there are billions of years of Earth where humans didn't exist why is it always the peoples doin' the spookin'? Well what if they aren't?!?!?! Suspend your logical thought for ( looks down at episode) just an hour ten or so and give rise to the regicidal thought that dinosaur ghosts are real!!! They're just misreported!! (I nailed that adverb incase you missed it) Today we are going to discuss modern day sightings of pterodactyls, the Loch Ness Monster, Caddy, Mokele-mbembe, and the Arica Monster. All modern day sightings of dinosaurs which Chelsie makes a compelling argument for the idea these creatures are residual hauntings from days of old when the scaled beasts roamed the land and ruled supreme until their great rocky thwarting. In the intro we tackle the extensive catch up to deal with the goings ons of everyones favourite welfare queens, the British Royal Family! What crazy shenanigans have British Andy and his mom gotten themselves into today? Listen and find out!

What are those horseboys up to? The Mr. Big saga
Remember when we talked about the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and there handling of a mass shooting?? Well we are going to talk about them again, and this time it's nothing but good news (jk... I needed to have fun somewhere). Today we are going to talk about a made in Canada investigation technique known as Mr. Big. This technique involves befriending a suspect, paying them thousands of Canadian dollars (that's a lot trust me), making the suspect do fake illegal things, and then making then admit to the crime or be cut off from all the above. As the kids are saying, it's sus (and that's as far as my "with it" will take me so just let that bring the average coolness of this whole description up to a hip level please). Join us for this discussion of the RCMP (Royal Canadian Malfeasance Police... I'll see myself out now) In the intro we discuss the coming of the James Webb Space Telescope age, ALL HAIL THE JAMES WEBB SPACE TELESCOPE AND THE GOODNESS IT BRINGS IN THE FORM OF HIGH REZ FAR AWAYNESS!! Also Chelsie takes a bastardized approached to "topical" news and discusses a missing person case from case from 2019. I guess the rules are just out the window now.

Mysteries come in many sizes and one shape
Today we are discussing those weird sections of the Earth we have summarily determined weird simply by the shape we can describe them as. the triangle zones. Of course the most well known of these little tri-laterals is the Bermuda triangle, but dare I say there's more!... although a good chunk of this episode is spent discussing the Bermuda Triangle and then we only go on to discuss one more, but don't hold the words I write to the words I speak! The Bermuda Triangle has captivated the minds of a western audience for decades so of course we had to cover it. BUT we also covered a triangle with missing congress members and military vehicles, UFO sightings, humanoid cryptid sightings and of course a missing cocoon boy. Of course I am talking about the Alaska triangle, or what some consider the last great untamed wilderness. Now strap yourself in for a listen and prepare to be educated on but one shape!! (and don't forget your notepad!) In the intro we discuss educational options for those looking to major in looking for weird stuff in the sky... You still can't but we're getting closer!

A History of Violent Strikes
There's a funny thing about history. It's subjective, some would say written by the winners. Well that probably means there's some things that happened that are fringe. Legally that means we can cover it (Law of Fringe RSBC 1498. c 3000)! The spot where this is most relevant for this episode is workers strikes. They get bloody, trains get tipped, roundhouses get... well nothing actually happens to the roundhouses but I think the point got across. Today we are going to look at three historical strikes that occurred in the US: The Great Railroad strike of 1877 The Pullman strike of 1894 The Battle of Blair Mountain 1921 I don't want to spoil too much but we sure don't strike like they used to. Grab a picket sign, join a sit in and give this episode a listen. In the intro we discussed the ongoing legal battle engulfing Julian Assange.

Lesser known genocides
Today we discussed genocides (let's just rip that bandaid off). Humans have been doing these for eons and are unfortunately likely to continue to do so into the future. So we thought it would be worth our time to discuss some of these historical events that may not be as well known as they should be. We look at the Qing genocide of the Dzungars in 1757, the Hatian genocide of 1904 and the Indonesian massacre of 1965. There is a lot to unpack in all of these and I think it's best if I just let you all listen to the info instead of my usual rambly ways. This episode contains description of death, torture and other general bad vibes material, viewer discretion is advised. In the intro we discuss topical court cases coming out of the US impacting workers rights. Ever think "nobody can make me go to work today"? Well I've got some bad news for you...

A linear flow from A to B then we can assume C. Well sometimes time doesn't want to flow so fluidly. Today we discuss those times. Listen as we discuss cases of individuals who believe they have slipped through the curtain to times immemorial. We also discuss similar themes found within folklore and paranormal encounters. Throw this on and just let the time slip(sorry) away. In the intro we discuss Prince Andrew now only shamefully known as British Andy. We will discuss why!

Cruise sure look like the life, beautiful locales, new adventures, friendly staff, food and drinks as far as the eye can see and all at a family friendly price. What if I told you that this is a public image that has been carefully crafted by PR specialist to sell an industry that at best is ethically and morally corrupt (in our opinion... gotta be careful throwing words around like that). From the carefully selecting their governing laws as if they picked them out from an artisanal bread Shoppe, to the utter avoidance of paying anyone in the pursuit of maximum profit, its environmental impact, and zealous pursuit of the perfect image there are many trade secrets this industry likes to keep below deck. Let's grab a dingy and venture out into some international waters for a listen! In the intro we discussed the uprising currently taking place in Kazakhstan.

Today we look at World War 2 (WW2 for those in a hurry) and the rush to remove Nazi scientists from their natural habitat and relocate them to a better eco-system where they could thrive as a species. This is known as Operation Paperclip and it is a very real thing that happened (for real!). We look first at the political climate that set this operation up and then at the dirty details. I hope you brought your learning cap, cuz fringe education is in session... and the learning cap is a mandatory piece of the fringe uniform... and we don't have any extras. Well let's get started!

What would Christmas be if not for the jolly red suited wizard we hail as Santa Claus. Probably more religious that's for sure. Although many heard tales around the playground about a friend who "totally saw him" or had a dad who was friends with him, he's always been a pretty ellusive character. Has anybody actually seen the guy? Well what if I were to tell you there is deep lore in the subject that can fill up at least * looks down at show notes * 40 minutes of air time? I know hard to believe but with some well placed filler banter it was possible. pour that cocoa, eat those cookies that were probably for someone else (we don't judge here) and give it a listen, it's medically proven to be just as healthy as not listening to it so you're in safe hands probably! In the intro we discuss the outcome in the latest Julian Assange trial in the UK and whether the US can finally settle that score they made up against him.

God I hope not but I can't confirm here, guess you'll have to listen.

To round out Europe we look at Scandinavian traditions of sketchy dwarves with porridge requirements and flaming goats that you most definitely should not alight if you are near.

Mothman, as made famous by John Keel, has been predominantly put forth with several known facts: It's strongly associated Point Pleasant, It's mothlike, and It's male in features. But what if we were to tell you this is all the above is a lie? In this episode we look at the lesser known but far more pervasive "mothman" sightings of the Chicago area. They span a larger time period, have far more dramatic sightings, but also bring into question the very name of this cryptid. Is it really mothlike? Does it outwardly present as male? What about the genitals???? are those male?!?!?!?! Oh god does it have moth genitals?!?!?!??! ENOUGH QUESTIONS!!!!

It's a Halloween creature feature!!
Hat man - What's in a hat? Apparently many a spook with this wicked amorphous character. Sometimes believed to be a subset of shadow people, this creature strikes fear, dread and a sense of doom into it's victims. Although tough to describe this is definitely a fascinating character to discuss. The Popelick Monster - half man, half goat, and half bloody axe. This beast takes no prisoners, with it's psychic powers and blood thirsty vengeance against humanity. luring teenagers to their doom is this an allegory for train safety or is their something more to it? Probably not, but we can still get creepy with it? In the intro we discuss a paranormal law suit that may be underway in California.

The roads to Hell are actually quite diverse
Today we are talking about actual gates to Hell on Earth. This is a very liberal take on the subject as we are looking at historical entry points, along with literal "gates to Hell" as found on Earth. It's a wonder how many of these are out there but once you realize that many are from previous religious interpretations. We touch o Greek, Roman, Turmani, Incan, and Voodoo interpretations on the subject. In the preamble we discuss the update on the Steven Donziger trial along with the Pandora papers, with a follow up coming soon. For Real!!

Why did drugs go?
This is the epic conclusion to the Drug Wars trilogy. When we last saw our hero and heroine, they were waging battle with the cunning and manipulative Harry Anslinger. But he has died and drugs will surely be treated in an equal and fair manor moving forward. Special guest appearances from Milhouse, Reaganomics, a smooth saxman, and to great apes for comedic relief. This episode contains laughs, knowledge, existential dread and a reference to sloppy steaks so viewer discretion is advised. The intro this week takes a look at the end of the eviction moratorium in the United States and we somehow end up talking about the Muppet Christmas Carol, as all worthwhile conversations do. Enjoy!

Where did drugs go?
We continue the history of drugs in society. This takes a look at the beginning of criminalization to most drugs in North America spanning the time from the late 1800's to the 1960's. Particular attention is paid to Harry Anslinger and his work within the bureaucracy of the American government and the transition he concocted from alcohol prohibition to the next mania (which I'm sure you can guess). There are quotes in this episode that contain derogatory terms for ethnic minorities, viewer discretion is advised.
S1 E27 · Fri, September 03, 2021
Where did drugs come from?
In this episode we discuss the history of major drugs prior to criminalization, mainly drugs derived from cannabis, poppies, and coca plants. This history spans multiple cultures and thousands of years. Were they gifts bestowed upon us by the gods? Were they plagues levied against the human race by demons? or was it the simple answer, aliens? sit back and have a listen, we are not here to judge how you partake just to make the words and then say those words in the order dictated by English grammar rules.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger... unless it's planned
We live in strange times with strange economic forces and decisions being made in smoky back rooms hidden from the view of you the consumer. This episode sheds light on some business practices you may not have been aware exist and are wideky used across many industries: Planned obsolescence: the practice of intentionally shortening the life of your product consumer buy your product faster. Perceived obsolescence: the practice of making consumers perceive their old version of your product is obsolete and therefore requires replacing faster. Shrinkflation: the practice of imperceptibly decreasing the quantity in which a product is sold without decreasing the price and thereby increasing the per unit price of the product without consumer awareness.

For your interpretation, we bring you: the Warrens
We bring you a polarizing couple held up atop the ghost hunting community, Ed and Lorraine Warren. A couple that investigate haunted houses from the 1950's into the 2000's and left there fingerprints all over what are considered some of the most iconic cases in the horror community. From The Conjuring, the Haunting in Connecticut, and Amityville Horror, this couple had a penchant for flare. Was all this attention warranted though? You be the judge as we look at demons, possessed dolls, possible bribery, ESP and just general research. I know I was engaged the whole time and I hope you are too!

Where is everybody?
This episode is a discussion of the Drake Equation - first posed by Frank Drake to answer the question "how many communicable civilizations are in the Milkyway galaxy?" in the 1960's we go over the factors and the answers you can come to from there. We then look at the Fermi paradox, proposed by Enrico Fermi which then asks "then where are these civilizations?". Many smart people have turned there mind to answering this paradox and today we go over a sampling of them. From the rare Earth to the zoo hypothesis no one can claim these aren't a fun thought experiment. Sit back, relax and enjoy some banter on a topic these hosts thoroughly enjoy.

There are a lot of questions that still require answers, but this is still a very interesting case and one you probably don't know the whole story on. Sit back, relax and give us a listen (we really appreciate it!).
