Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/10/06

I'm back with Brother Dan to discuss more Halloween Safety tips. This time, it's from a public service announcement from 1985 instead of 1977. Same production company, but a more updated message. Does this one contain more relevant safety tips? Will the kids avoid razor apples and glass filled candy? Come back in time with us and let's find out together.UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com

Halloween Safety - A 1977 PSA Review

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/10/03

It's time to get ready for Halloween, which means it's time to fire up the time machine and go back to 1977 for some safety tips. We get to hear what Halloween was like in the 70's and help a little witch have the safest trick-or-treat experience possible. As always, we give the PSA a good review and judge it's message and relevancy. UniverseofWeirdos@gmail.com

Did the Storyville Slayer Call The Howard Stern Show?

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/09/30

In August of 1997, a man named Clay called into The Howard Stern Show to claim he was a serial killer. Years have passed, more information has come to light, and it seems like this might have been a legitimate call. Around this same time, from where this man was calling from, there were several unsolved prostitute murders. Some details are different, but would a legit killer really give away all the information to catch him? Let's listen to the call and examine for ourselves. Was the caller Clay

Reliving the Satanic Panic

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/09/27

We are kicking off spooky season by revisiting the Satanic Panic of the 80's/90's. We react to extremist preachers telling us that everything sci-fi is the devil. He-Man, ET, Rainbow Brite, all of them pure evil! This is not an anti-religion episode. It's simply a reaction to the weird overreaction of the things that I liked as a child and was told were evil.UniverseofWeirdos@gmail.com

Nostradamus and the Fine Art of Vague Nonsense

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/09/25

Nostradamus predicted so many things! Did he, though? Did he really? I'm diving into Nostradamus' predictions to examine what he allegedly got right, what he absolutely got wrong, and what we are still waiting to happen. Does any of it make sense, or is it all just vague horse crap? Let's examine this 500 years of predicting nothing.UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com

Turning the Corner on Jerry Banfield - A Podcast Apology

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/09/22

I made fun of him, called him a creep, and picked him apart relentlessly. I take none of that back, but I will say this... I like Jerry Banfield. He's hilarious. His videos make me laugh, and yeah, maybe it's AT him and not WITH him, but he is still providing legitimate quality entertainment on YouTube. So, I am back to give his content a fair review. We travel with Jerry to an AA meeting and find out exactly why the internet is starting to love him so much. He's overly honest, somewhat delusional,

Pocketful of Oddities

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/09/19

I'm doing a mix bag of bizarre clips for this episode. These are strange things I have collected in the playlist over the past year, with no real category to fit into, other than just "weird". We get to learn about ice cream tasting, bowel care, and listen to Urkel's attempt to make music. You get all of this wackiness and so much more, on this random and silly episode.UniverseofWeirdos@gmail.com

Alcohol is Dynamite - A 1958 PSA Review

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/09/17

We are going back to the 1950's once again, to learn about the evils of drinking, and specifically underage drinking. What starts as two teens just looking for an adult to buy them some booze, turns into an epic lecture that holds these kids hostage on the sidewalk. Crack open a cold one, jump back in time with us, and enjoy or you'll be one dead duck, buster. UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com

We trace the origins of open mic hackery all the way to the first person to do stand up on TV. Break out your propeller hat and be sure to share this episode with your favorite birthday clown.

Reviewing Jerry Banfield Dating - A Predator Fit for...

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/09/09

Jerry Banfield has his own dating channel on Youtube. Jerry offers you advice on your dating life. Jerry also made a private video for a woman he was trying to date, and that video is now public. Jerry shows what a creep he his, what a manipulator he is, and how he will weaponize anything he can in order to get what he wants. This dude is a hypocrite and has no room to give anyone dating advice. I challenge anyone to listen to this man and think he shouldn't have to pre-register for certain offender

Mel Gibson Meltdown Part 3 - Fakers

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/09/06

The Finale of our Mel Gibson meltdown review. Let's go Beyond Thunderdome and listen to Mel scream more about oral, get creative with the insults, and leave a lot of really odd voicemails. Things get glum, things get common, but they always remain angry. Be sure to hit up Spotify or Amazon Music and check out some of Oksana's tunes.UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com

Mel Gibson Meltdown Part 2 - Grief and Bad Publicity

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/09/03

We're diving back into the Mel Gibson tapes. Oksana isn't the best at balancing sound levels, but we still do our best. We talk about Mel's struggle to hold onto the power dynamic in this failed relationship, and how he really doesn't want it to end. Lots of over-the-top fake anger and attempts to make Oksana feel bad, but it comes with a lot of hilariously quotable lines. Look forward to me and Oksana's duet album "Going to Jacuzzi" coming this Christmas.UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com

Mel Gibson Meltdown Part 1 - Just Smile

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/08/31

Part One of Three. It's been 10 years since Mel Gibson destroyed his career and we are going to revisit those infamous tapes. Mel and Oksana have a pretty typical, shallow, Hollywood relationship, but Mel wants something more from their dynamic. He thought he could buy a woman and then got mad when she spent his money. A hypocritical tale as old as time. We listen to the first part and try to see the comedy in this awful situation. It's hard not to laugh at Mel Gibson as he gets way too over-the-top

Addressing Tragedies and Answering Questions

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/08/28

It's another FAQ episode, but I am addressing the thing that has been bothering me over the last couple of weeks. Trigger warning: It is gross and my departed former-friend is disgusting. But, I do go over some listener questions. Will I use AI to write jokes? What would be my internet grift, if I wanted to pull a Clara Dao? Have I ever had a gay experience? Come listen to this weirdness of a feedback and questions show!UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com

The Internet Will Never Catch On

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/08/24

I'm still not really feeling myself, but I don't take time off. I am going over some stuff from the mid-90's that explains the internet. What is Internet? Is it a place you can go? It's bizarre to hear people not understand something that is so dominant in our lives today. Come travel this information super-highway with me and learn all about the internet and online shopping. Will it ever catch on?UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com

Podcast Therapy - An AI Producer Show

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/08/21

I've been dealing with a personal tragedy and lost a friend that I was very close with. On top of that, I have a cold. On top of that, my town is flooded. Life is rough and pretty depressing right now, so I need some podcast therapy. I owe it to you and myself to at least TRY to be funny. So, instead of wasting a perfectly good premise on a dark and depressing mood, I am going to let Squeak McBeak takeover and produce this one for me. I hope you enjoy another special AI Producer

Habit Patterns - A 1954 PSA Review

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/08/16

The Universe of Weirdos time machine is fixed up and ready to blast back to present day, but we have unfinished business in 1954. We've previewed this Habit Patterns PSA on a few previous episodes, and I don't like how crappy the narrator is treating our friend Barbara. Like, always, we will review the relevancy of this educational film, but we are also going stick up for Barbara and defend her personality. We might even put her in the time machine and bring her back with

Marriage for Moderns - A 1954 PSA Review

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/08/13

The time machine is broken down and I am stuck in the 1950's. We drop in on Frank and Honey, who are having some marriage problems. This educational film from 1954 is still surprisingly relevant, when it comes to things couples argue about. We help them determine Who's Right, where they are going wrong in their relationship, and how they might be able to fix it.UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com

What Makes a Good Party? - A 1950 PSA Review

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/08/09

Brother Dan joins me, once again, as we hop in the time machine to blast back to 1950. We go over an old PSA that teaches us how to have a good party. As usual, we go over the audio, decide if the advice is good advice, and add our own twist of modern relevance. Put on your finest poodle skirt and get ready to party like it's 1949.UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com

Learning About Clara Dao

Universe of Weirdos ·

2026/08/06

Join me as I learn who Clara Dao is in real time. A text conversation between me and an old friend turns into a strange podcast episode, as I learn all about body-positive influencer Clara Dao and how she betrayed her entire fanbase. I've never done a show like this before, so I hope it's entertaining enough.UniverseOfWeirdos@gmail.com
