Slab City - Welcome to the Lawless Californian Town

Things I Learned Last Night ·

2021/06/29

What do Salvation Mountain, East Jesus, and West Satan have in common? If you guessed they're locations in a video game then you're only half right. These eclectic phrases are names of subdivisions in the infamous Californian town known as Slab City. Home to mostly squatters and vagabonds, Slab City has been hailed as the last free city in the world. Residents enjoy no modern amenities like running water or electricity. However, they relish their off-grid lifestyle in one of the strangest places

2021/06/22

New Mexico, 1964, Police Officer Lonnie Zamora was tending to his typical daily routine of ticketing speeders outside the city of Socorro. Zamora found himself in pursuit of a speeding vehicle when he saw something that would change his life forever. The UFO he witnessed that day would officially be listed in the secretive Project Blue Book as "unknown" a designation only afforded 700 of the 12,000 reports included in the mysterious report. To this day proponents of UAP research point to the Lonnie

Cargo Cults

Things I Learned Last Night ·

2021/06/15

When tribal groups first make contact with cultures and civilizations outside their own there are often unexpected consequences. Throughout history moments of 'First Contact' have led to disease outbreaks, war, and genocide. However, there is also a relatively new and incredibly odd phenomenon tied to first contact events known as Cargo Cults. These strange religions are largely formed out of a single campaign during World War 2. In short, tribal groups across the pacific experienced allied military

Eels

2021/06/08

Have you ever heard of Eels? Yeah, we're talking about the really weird snake-like fish that sometimes electrocute people. Sidebar, electric eels actually aren't even eels. They're a totally different kind of fish, it's a misnomer. Eels are incredibly odd because no one knows where they come from. These sea creatures lack reproductive organs of any kind. Their lack of obvious reproductive organs has enshrouded eels for thousands of years. This is the story of the incredibly strange eel.This show is

The Boston Molassacre

Things I Learned Last Night ·

2021/06/01

On January 15, 1919, a 40-foot tidal wave ripped through Boston. This tidal wave did not come from the sea. No, it was a wave of molasses. This thick, sweet liquid tore through the city streets causing serious damage, injury, and even death. This is the strange and nearly unbelievable tale of the Boston Molassacre (AKA The Great Molasses Flood).This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at

The 1904 Olympic Marathon

Things I Learned Last Night ·

2021/05/25

It was the dawn of the modern Olympic era. St. Louis boasted the pleasure of being the 3rd host of the soon-to-be world-renowned games. Everything went off without a hitch. That is everything, except the men's marathon. This race was so mind-numbingly stupid that it has gone down in the annals of athletic history with infamy. This is the story of the 1904 Men's Olympic Marathon, the worst race of all time (we actually think it's the best, but it's all just about your perspective).This show is part

Aleister Crowley

Things I Learned Last Night ·

2021/05/18

He was a magician, an occultist, and a vagabond. At one point, Aleister Crowley either struck fear or admiration into people all around the world. Even his own mother called him the antichrist. This revolutionary thinker started his own religion based around rather frightening rites. His lifestyle inspired celebrities and rockstars for decades. This is the story of how a young Christian boy divulged into an identity that aspired to earn the title of antichrist.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime

2021/05/11

In February 1959, ten experienced hikers embarked on a dangerous hike through the northern Urals (a mountain range in the then Soviet Union). None of the adventurers knew what they were getting into when they left for the trek, in fact, no one to this day knows just what they encountered. Theories range from an avalanche to Katabatic wind to the Yeti and even aliens. Whatever they faced brought about their unfortunate demise. This is the story of the Dyatlov Pass Incident and the theories that

Remote Viewing

Things I Learned Last Night ·

2021/05/04

Remote Viewing and the government project that popularized it just might take the cake as the most unbelievable thing this little comedy podcast has ever discussed. Buckle up, because this is a wild one. In the early '70s, several government organizations developed a psychic training program that would eventually enlist dozens of psychics for use in actual operations. In the span of 25 years, the government conducted over 25,000 operations with the assistance of remote viewing agents.This show is

The 2008 Florida Gators

Things I Learned Last Night ·

2021/04/27

Not only were the 2008 Florida Gators the nearly undefeated BCS National Champions, but their roster is composed of a shockingly wide range of players. Most of the starters on the team made it to the NFL, but most of the team also made it to jail. Seriously, nearly a third of this team has been arrested since the 2008 season. Oh, and did we forget to mention that this is the team Tim Tebow came from? Buckle up, because this team is a motley crew by all definitions.This show is part of the Spreaker

The Suburbs

Things I Learned Last Night ·

2021/04/20

In the U.S. and its neighboring nations, mainly Canada, you'll find a suburban sprawl. Suburbia has become almost synonymous with the American way of life over the last 70 years. But, is it the right way to build a city? As the years have gone by and we've watched this great suburban experiment unfold, it would appear that the suburbs are doomed to fail.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at

Bob Lazar

2021/04/13

Bob Lazar has been noted as making some of the most audacious and outright unbelievable claims in recent history. If you can believe what Bob Lazar claims then it could change the way you think about everything. It was his claims that put area 51 in the limelight after all. UFOs and alien life were both popular topics prior to Lazar, however, his stories have given steam to conspiracy theorists for decades.

Want to talk about a really weird book? Well, do we have a book for you! The Voynich Manuscript is the definition of an enigma. Named after the book salesman who found it, the Voynich Manuscript is an almost unbelievable document full of odd doodles and writings in some unknown language.

Tulip Mania

Things I Learned Last Night ·

2021/03/23

At the height of Tulip Mania investors and collectors alike were willing to spend just amount any price for a single bulb. The value of one tulip at the peak of the bubble surpassed that of homes of the day. In fact, these little flowers had enough buying power to purchase not one but five homes. It was an unbelievable rise in value that consequently created generational wealth for a few lucky individuals. On the flip side of this metaphorical coin, though, others squandered generations of
