Hi Weirdos!
Welcome to our FINAL episode of the year! The season one finale! It's been a crazy year full of laughter and screams, friendship and drinks, learning crazy new things, and most importantly.. sharing scary stories.
One story you've heard referenced multiple times is that of "Ben." The ghost that followed Ashley from apartment to apartment when she first moved to LA. Well this week, we get to sit down and have a chat with Ben.
Ashley and Lauren are joined by Robyn and Jonathan on their LAST night in their [possibly] haunted apartment in this part interview, part investigation-- all spooky fun.
See you on the flip side, Weirdos!
((PS: There are a couple parts of this audio that is a little echoey-- we were working with multiple sets of equipment because we were ALSO filming this episode for a YouTube collaboration with METHODBOX! Keep an eye out for that on our Keep It Weird Facebook page!))
Hi Weirdos!

If you have a question, thought, or opinion-- shoot us an email at keepitweirder@gmail.com to be featured on an episode of KEEP IT WEIRD!!
*Absolutely not experts.
Welcome back, ya psychos! Last week got a bit dark, wouldn't ya say? Sorry about it, we just couldn't help ourselves!
This week we are BACK with PART TWO of "OH, for Pete's Sake" as we take a look at MEDIA URBAN LEGENDS. The internet has spawned some VERY creepy stories; but could real life actually be creepier?
Joined again by PETER LOZANO host of the Very Special Television podcast and his husband Scott; we chat about Slenderman, the Rake, Time Travelers Tweeting, even more creepy YouTube videos, and much more as we continue our trip into the darkest corners of the World Wide Web.

We are joined by a VERY SPECIAL guest, Peter Lozano-- host of the VERY SPECIAL TELEVISION podcast!! And return guest, Scott Youngbauer, who you last heard in our DOLLS episode! So many CAPS!
Focusing on the "conspiracy" portion in this segment-- we're going to be talking about broadcast signal intrusions, strange youtube channels and reddit threads, internet "gang stalking," and even take a trip through the DARK WEB!
This week gets crazy and very dark so we've added a couple extra WARNINGS for some of the more disturbing material.

Welcome to another edition of HOMETOWN LORE! This time we decided not to travel at all as we're joined by CALIFORNIA native Rachel Wilde!
This episode dives deep into the history of California's famous serial killers, murder mysteries, haunted locations, strange architecture, adorable monsters, and some reeeeaaaally chiiillll California ghosts.
So slap on some sunscreen, open the sunroof, avoid the 405 and join us for an extended episode that's all about Cali, baby!
Remember that crazy episode we did about how we could all be a part of a computer program called the Matrix where we talked about multiple dimensions, alternate timelines, and the Mandela effect and you listened and were like... whuuuut?
It's like that but longer/crazier/deeper. This time around we look at the fabric of the universe through the lens of premonitions and precognition. Do humans have the ability to see into the future? Is time a bunch of wibbly-wobbly stuff? What are we meant to gain from this knowledge? And who is sending us this information? Be it God, Xenu, or ourselves from an alternate universe-- buckle up for this wild ride.
Hello Boils and Ghouls!!
It's another edition of LISTENER GHOST STORIES!! We know, it's been too long!
We travel all over the country from Pasadena, CA to Peoria, IL... we chat about everything from space pickles to haunted DVDs, from IRL indian burial grounds to possessed toilets. And we try to find an answer to the age old question: Why is everybody being haunted by their uncle?
You know the drill, throw on some headphones and get ready to get spooky.
What is the creepiest thing you can think of to be the sole focus of an entire episode? No, not clowns. Ugh, but you're so right though. No. it's DOLLS. Creepy dolls, haunted dolls, possessed dolls, voodoo dolls, island of the dolls, DOLLS DOLLS DOLLS.
This week we ask the questions Why do we find dolls so creepy? Is there really an island full of dolls? Can a doll really become possessed? Why is the horror movie industry obsessed with dolls?
Find your answer to these and more as we sip some cocktails, scream a lot, and get all DOLLED up.
Warning Weirdos-- this episode is CURSED!!
Or... I mean, it could be. This week we're going Behind the Scenes of the Damned! The Exorcist, Poltergeist, The Omen, Rosemary's Baby, Superman, The Conjuring. Were these movies CURSED? Or was it just plain bad luck? Is this VERY episode cursed? Or has OUR luck simply ran out?
Join us as we lift the curtain and go backstage.. how many film/tv references can we fit into this description?
Enjoy! But also might be cursed so... don't say we didn't warn you.
