Strange & Unusual ·

2025/04/23

We’re baaaaaaack baby! New state, new trial, same Lori Vallow and this time? She’s representing herself at this trial. What could possibly go wrong? Spoiler alert: a lot. But it’s honestly… kind of funny. Like not funny that someone died but damn.

Ep 225: This is a Barbie Podcast - Eric and Hilma Witte

Strange & Unusual ·

2025/04/09

Eric’s life took a sudden left turn when his mother leaned down to his ear and asked if he thought it would be better if his dad was dead. We’re not saying Paul Witte was a saint, but we are saying that isn’t a fair question to ask an 8 year old.

Ep 224: Medieval Tennessee - Packhorse Librarians

Strange & Unusual ·

2025/04/02

Just when we thought it was going to be a sweet episode about librarians, the wee-woos dropped nazis and Japanese internment camps. Don’t worry though, they’re not the focus of the episode.

2025/03/26

It wasn’t even close and now you all have to admit it too, we’re all sick individuals who enjoy cults. This one’s not as bad as it could have been, but it’s certainly not a happy fun times cult either. Jeffery Lundgren was not a good man, he was not a safe man and he never should have had access to so many people.

What happened to Gloria? A lot… allegedly. We know she had cancer and we know she died, but it’s the in between that’s left a big mystery. Was she really the problem? Was it all an elaborate cover up? Was it negligence? Maybe a little of everything? Maybe none of somethings. Who knows? Not us and not anyone else for that matter.

Who knew that Dr. Suess was inspired by the Puritans when he wrote The Grinch? Well, we don’t know that he was, but we also don’t know that he wasn’t. So we’ll just pretend together.

Have you ever felt so fragile you might shatter like glass? Have you ever considered what you might think if you didn’t really know what glass was? Or even know that it COULD shatter into a million sharp shiny pieces? In an era that brought you heart attacks because you saw a weird duck, people were very susceptible to mania and anxieties. Some might say just as often as the modern era.Email us at: Strangeunusualpodcast@gmail.com Patreon: Patreon.com/strangeunusual Follow the pod on IG at:

Sorry this is a week late guys. Between Casey getting sick and Roya struggling with her ears, we both had a hell of a week to say the least and the episode completely slipped our minds.
