Like, as if!  Are you ready to get up, get down with the sickness?  Join Ashley, Lauren, and Jimmy as they take it back to one of the tightest decades of all-- the 90's!  In Part One of 90's Spooktacular Spectacular we chat about everything from Tales from the Crypt to Nick at Nite and Freak on a Leash to Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. Did Marilyn Manson remove one of his ribs so he could fellate himself?  Is CGI blood really going to scare anybody?  How did we miss all the sexual innuendos in Rocko's Modern Life?  

 

Check out our Facebook page for a dope visual guide to this week's episode!

It's our very first Mini-sode!  And honestly, it's not *that* mini.  Join Ashley and her good friend Jimmy for an extended "This Week in Weird" as they discuss a bunch of REAL WEIRD stuff happening in our world right now.  

 

From a ghost on a trail cam, a fish with a tattoo, a house full of clowns, and a possible sexual fetish with a sea creature; come laugh, cry, and scream with us!

It's that time again! Lauren and Ashley bring you some real PARANORMAL STORIES sent in by YOU, the listeners!  We'll take you from New Orleans to Sears, from real life mediums to hair pulling ghosts, and from naked mole rats to fantastical beasts of Christmas lore.

 

If YOU have a weird story about a ghost, witch, demon, dream, serial killer, fairy, ufo, gremlin, goblin, or an experience you had that was just plain WEIRD email us at keepitweirder@gmail.com!

OUR FIRST OFFICIAL PARANORMAL INVESTIGATION in which we TOTALLY did not drink wine all night.*

This week join Ashley and Lauren as they chat about their paranormal investigation of the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles.  

Get to know the history of the Biltmore and some of it's most famous haunts (including the BLACK DAHLIA) hear stories from staff members about the spooks, listen to audio recordings of the actual investigation, and throw some headphones on, because even though we may have been drinking some wine, we absolutely caught some VERY strange EVP's.  

 

*We absolutely did drink wine all night.

Apr 22, 2017

This week Ashley and Lauren sit down with their good friend and amateur paranormal investigator Matt Roberts to discuss ghost hunting! Some of the history, the tools and methods you use, the do's and don'ts, how and when to debunk, and EIGHT of Matt's very own EVP's.  

 

Throw on your headphones and enjoy learning about scrying, dowsing, crystal pendulums, EMF, EVP's, K2 Meters, Thermal Imaging Cameras, and Ghost Boxes.  What methods work?  What methods don't?  Can the dead actually communicate?  Are they even dead?  Find out on this week's EXTENDED EPISODE!! 

Apr 14, 2017

Welcome back!! Continue along with Ashley, Lauren, and Kelly as they discuss the more evil side of Divine Tampering.  Signing contracts with the devil, people committing heinous murder and claiming that Satan made them do it, cults, sacrifice, schizophrenia, AND our very first EVP. 

Stay tuned to the end of the episode to take a close listen to the enhanced audio of the strange whisper we caught when we recorded this episode! 

ATTENTION: This is Part TWO of a two part episode-- so if you start the episode and are confused, go back and take a listen to Episode 11 Part One! 

Apr 7, 2017

Join Lauren, Ashley, and Kelly for Part One of "Divine Meddlin'" where we discuss intervention, interference, and interruptions on our earthly plane by creatures from heaven and hell.  People who claim to have talked to God, "The Devil Made me Do It" murder cases, stigmata, miracles, prophecies, and more.

 

We take a serious look at what happens when heaven and hell come onto our turf and mess around.  Do you have to be a believer to believe in stigmata?  Why are so many schizophrenics religious fanatics? Tune in this week (and next) and let us know what YOU think.

Mar 31, 2017

Lauren and Ashley sit down to tell some spooky LISTENER GHOST STORIES!! This is the second edition of the LGS series; full of stories sent in by listeners, family members, and friends.

Ghost tour evidence, shadow people, cruise ship spooks, psychic mediums, and finding out that apparently most ghosts go to college in Illinois.

 

If YOU have a weird story; ghosts, aliens, psychics, monsters, premonitions, conspiracy theory, run ins with serial killers, etc EMAIL US at keepitweirder@gmail.com and tell us your tale! 

Mar 24, 2017

Are you ready to be Science-d?  This week, Lauren and Ashley sit down with Maria and ask some very serious questions about whether or not we are all living in a giant computer simulation.  What clues do we have in every day life? Deja Vu?  Alternate Timelines?  The Mandela Effect?  Do our brains receive and store information a little too much like a computer would?  Does this theory disprove God?  

There's a lot of big-girl words in this one-- so buckle up, put on your thinking cap, take the red pill and follow us down the rabbit hole...

Mar 17, 2017

This week is all about cryptids!! Ashley and Lauren sit down with their good friend Georges to talk about their favorite MONSTERS; Bigfoot, Nessie, Thunderbirds, the Kraken, and more!  Do they exist?  Are they friend or foe?  Where they at?

The trio gets worried that the government is definitely listening in on their podcast; attempting to sabotage them with passing planes, a noisy neighbor, and a pesky feline.  Tensions rise as they begin to turn against each other but could they come together in the end over their mutual hatred of water?  Tune in and find out! 

Mar 10, 2017

Ashley, Lauren, and Ben talk about their favorite horror movies that are BASED ON A TRUE STORY! What they got right, what they got wrong, and in some cases "What the hell were they thinking?"  Tune in for some interesting tid-bits on some of the best horror movies of all time including behind the scenes curses, director's true life inspirations, and possibly some demonic activity taking place in this very apartment.

 

BONUS: Throw on some headphone's for a secret special treat hidden in a "spooky-spooky" story. (Minute 16-22)

Ashley and Lauren bring you their own personal ghost stories, listener ghost stories, and a little Christmas cheer.

Join us for Part One of our Listener Ghost Stories series where we bring you REAL life ghost stories, our theories on what could be taking place, and, as usual, a whole lot of tangents. 

We start with some personal stories-- Lauren encounters a ghost in a restaurant bathroom and Ashley grows up sharing her house with a little girl in a checkered dress.  A naked demon (or possibly one of Santa's elves?) intimidates a 9 year old on Christmas morning, a shirtless man haunts a bedroom, and we'll introduce you to "Ben," the energy that harassed Ashley and her old roommates for over two years.

Send in YOUR stories to keepitweirder@gmail.com so we can share them with the world!

In this episode, Lauren and Ashley sit down with their very first FEMALE guest, Kari, and discuss Ladies who kill!  We all pick our favorite female serial killers throughout history and talk about what makes female serial killers different and similar to their male counterparts... and we sing.  A lot.

 

DISCLAIMER: This episode has a weird audio problem!  Starting at about minute 10 and going to about minute 20 there is a strange popping sound-- we've tried everything to remove this sound but weren't able to fix it!  We didn't want to cut it out, because theres a lot of weird/cool information shared, but if you can't handle it skip ahead to minute 21 and you'll be in the clear! 

Feb 10, 2017
