Christmas on Planet Stupid

Daniel Grothe"s "Piledrivers in the Crypt" ·

2025/12/18

It’s Christmas… but the joy isn’t landing. In this special holiday episode of Piledrivers in the Crypt... demonic Elf on the Shelf incidents, a drunk chain-smoking Santa with a naked Grey alien “helper”... Then we get serious. From Reagan and E.T. to Close Encounters and Taken, Spielberg’s long UFO history becomes the springboard into something darker: what if disclosure never happens because the invasion already did—through AI, distraction, and the slow dumbing-down of the human race?Please

The X-mas Special that did't happen...

🎄🩸 Merry Christmas… I guess. 🩸🎄So yeah — the Christmas Special with the Mikes didn’t happen. Shocking, I know.But fear not, my festive little ghouls… predictions were made, holiday feelings were felt (against my will), and the halls are officially decked with bones and existential dread.Listen on all the apps, on my website, and — and I swear on my Art Bell shrine — artbell.us actually works.No irony. No punchline. Reality is weird.🐶 And seriously, before you go back to arguing with your family

A show that was probably a mistake...

2025/12/06

A show that was probably a mistake… I mean, absolutely a mistake. The Mikes are here—yeah, that’s right, for ONE week only. And through some cosmic lapse in judgment I decided to open the wormhole for Larry the Dog.And look, I know… that was a mistake. I admit it. My bad. I’ll say sorry on behalf of both timelines. But listen anyway! It’s painful, it’s emotional, it’s ridiculous—so basically perfect.Do me a favor and crawl over to DanielGrothe.us, or whatever app you use while pretending podcasts

Perchtenlauf - Krampus is coming!

Daniel has somehow survived:Thanksgiving (barely)Black Friday (he still has bruises from that old lady with the shopping cart)Survivor Series (don’t even ask)Cyber Monday (his bank account is now a haunted house)Stranger Things (long story…)…and his first Perchtenlauf, where he learned that Austrian demons run faster than American ones.And naturally, he’s back in the Crypt—sarcastic, traumatized, and ready to talk about things that should’ve stayed buried.🎧 Listen to the new episode now.It’ll warm

Black Turkey Day

Daniel Grothe"s "Piledrivers in the Crypt" ·

2025/11/23

Daniel survives another Thanksgiving by weaponizing spite, reading your possessed-poultry emails, and dragging us all back to Chernobyl where Mothman apparently moonlights as a safety inspector. The Mikes on Mics finally crawl out of whatever cornfield abduction they were enjoying, grace us with their presence for exactly one episode like the prodigal fanboys they are, and spend twenty minutes simping harder for John Cena than a 14-year-old at a 1998 Backstreet Boys concert. Happy Thanksgiving! I

The Cutting Room Floor

Daniel Grothe"s "Piledrivers in the Crypt" ·

Halloween is over. The pumpkins are rotting, your candy hangover has settled into the marrow, and guess what? We’re not done. Not even close. This week on Piledrivers in the Crypt, we’re crawling into the vault of cinema — the realhorrors. The reels that were burned, buried, locked away, or politely swept under the studio rug because apparently “society can’t handle that.”Meanwhile, the Mikes from Mikes on Mics are mysteriously absent. Are they sick? Busy? Dead? No. They’re probably under a blanket

The network doesn’t care.It’s Halloween, and that’s all that matters.So the Mikes and I did the only thing that made sense in this flaming madhouse of a year:We came together to give you the special you actually deserve.Please… have a safe and happy Halloween—because we sure as hell won’t.And for the love of all things unholy…do not let it involve blankets.Over

Daniel Grothe"s "Piledrivers in the Crypt" ·

2025/10/25

This week, we go out in style — or at least in sarcasm. The Wormhole is wide open, and somehow the Mikes made it back through — though Mike S looks like he aged three centuries...Nothing says “Halloween spirit” like trying to make sense of Vince Russo’s booking logic while surrounded by demons.And if that’s not horrifying enough, we’ve got five brand-new listener horror stories straight from you — the brave souls who keep proving that reality is way sicker than anything we could make up.Please

Life changes. Body changes. Paranormal rebrands. True crime dead-ends. Basically: one wrong street, one wrong date, one wrong snack at 7-Eleven and—boom—you’re the next cold case file.Also, the Mikes on Mics give their predictions for Wrestlepalooza. Which is like asking two drunk raccoons to predict the stock market.Listen now 👉 www.danielgrothe.usAnd yeah, Mikey’s fundraiser is on the site too.

Mr. Pascal & The Mushrooms

This week on Piledrivers in the Crypt, we’re talking about mushrooms. Not the fun pizza kind… no, we’re diving into the fungal nightmares that want to crawl up your spine and wear you like a sock puppet. And just when you thought it couldn’t get weirder… enter Woooooo!… a flamboyant Grey Alien. Meanwhile, the Mikes decided the world really needed their take on WrestleMania in Saudi Arabia. Nothing screams “family-friendly entertainment” like oil money, fireworks, and a show that lasts longer than my

Bikinis, BBQs… and bloodshed. It’s summer, baby. And guess what? The sun’s trying to kill you. Not the government. Not your neighbor. Not some guy on a podcast screaming about lizard people and fluoride. Nope. Just our good ol’ flaming death orb in the sky turning the Earth into a microwaved Hot Pocket of doom.Meanwhile… over at the Kayfabe Zone with the Mikes on Mics... things are getting way too political. Like C-Span but with concussions levels of political. I don’t know what they’re doing over
