Welcome back misfits! This episode, while simultaneously recording a podcast and trying to figure out which one of her upstairs neighbors has been playing “smoke on the water” for 45 minutes on their bass guitar, Emmy discusses the age old question we know has been on all of your minds: is Elvis still alive? While some think the King died decades ago, super fans are still holding out hope that he was an extra in “Home Alone”. Not weird enough for you? Try this. Steve tells the story of a woman who

Hey Misfits! Steve and Emmy have a Bigfoot-tastic episode for you today. They’re speaking with Dr. Jeff Meldrum, an expert on all things hominids and Sasquatch. He tells us about the most compelling evidence — from footprints to videos — and why they should convince the h8rs that Bigfoot is real AF. We also get a story in from a listener about his real life Bigfoot encounters, and real life Bigfoot tattoos — not sure which is spookier. Emmy also discusses a tunnel conspiracy; tldr, the world is

Heyyyy Misfits! This week the Steve and Emmy listens in to a theater-themed ghost story from one of their listeners, Valerie, that left Emmy freaked out for the next two days. Seriously. Then, Emmy takes us through the legend of the Denver International Airport — complete with Illuminati conspiracies, secret underground tunnels, statutes that kill, and so much more. It’s a doozy. Then, Steve talks about the “dancing plague”, a real life disease that spread through Germany back in the day that had

Hey Misfits! This week Steve and Emmy actually tell you about something topical — you won’t believe the UFO news coming out of the U.S. government. Then we kick it over to our usual programming to talk about the legend of Lumeria — a “secret” continent that has since sunk under the ocean, containing an entire race of giant humans. Don’t worry, though, these telepathic, 15-foot-tall, four-armed f*ckers didn’t go down with the continent. You may have even seen them living inside a quite popular spot

Hey Misfits, we have to settle a very important debate: are you a fork or a spoon person? Choose wisely. After taking us down this rabbit hole, Emmy kicks us off with an age old debate: are birds real, or did the government kill them to get them to stop pooping on our cars? I’ll let you figure that one on your own next time you’re wiping shit off of your windshield. During this segment, Emmy and Steve are also joined by a special guest, Rachel, a friend and adamant BAR (birds aren’t real) believer

All of us regular humans don’t have to worry, though, because there’s a few easy ways to defeat one — all you have to do is take its pants off. Next, Emmy tells us about the wild world of hollow earth: a theory that there are spooky 15 foot tall monsters living INSIDE of our earth. Yeah, just forget

Get ready for a dinotastic episode, Misfits! This week Steve and Emmy talk to their favorite paleontologist, Nizar Ibriham (to be fair, he’s the only paleontologist we know, but he’s still pretty cool). He tells us everything from how we know what dinosaurs looked like and ate, to his top 5 dinosaurs he would include in an epic Jurassic Park rerun — and it seems he has a serious preference for the carnivores (me too, Nizar). Then, Steve takes us through the legend of Chessie, the Chesapeake Bay

Hey hey Misfits! Hope you’re ready for a doozy of an episode. This week, Steve tells us a twisted tale about a double date that turns into a slip in time. Long story short: a few naive friends walk into a hotel that has no pillows and no electricity, and a policeman sends them the wrong way on the “autoroute” (whatever that means). Emmy follows up with a journey of a segment on the 1,600 people that go missing in national parks each year. Some explanations for the disappearances include: Bigfoot,

First, Steve kicks us off with a few spooky sea stories. Did a sea monster really attack German submarines off the coast of Ireland during WWI, or was it just an very very elderly dinosaur?

Hey Misfits! This special episode, Steve and Emmy dive into two of their favorite subjects: aliens and animals. Steve kicks off with a discussion of Wojtek, an actual real life bear who joined the Polish Army. Not only did this bear help out the troops, but he kicked back with the boys, drinkin brews and smokin cigs. Pretty chill. Then, Emmy carries us through part 2 of the world according to Ancient Aliens. And let me tell you, it’s even crazier than part 1. Did you know that aliens killed all of

Basically, just be a bad b*tch, talk to yourself, or have a third nipple. All the cool kids are doing it. Then Steve talks about Ludwig the Blood Sucker, a Vampire from NYC who may in fact have just been a drunk little person who likes to bite people.

First, Steve tells us some crazy Cryptid stories — like the time Bigfoot threw a snake at a woman’s car (spoiler alert, that’s the whole story). Then, Emmy covers the legend of the Kraken, which Steve and Emmy discover is somewhere between the size of a football field and a school bus, but we’re not really sure. Then, things get steamy as Steve reads the review of his new favorite book
