I can see your future, weirdos!

 
And the future looks BRIGHT!  Welcome to Keep It Weird, the podcast for all things strange and unusual, freaky and fabulous, wicked and wild and EVERYTHING in between!
 
Everytime we get together we talk about something weird, and what is weirder than fortune telling?!  This week's episode is very special, as we are learning all about DIVINATION!
 
Divination is an extremely OLD practice because since the beginning of mankind we've all been very worried about what our futures hold for us.  Whether it's regarding our love life, our career, the cities we live in or the cars we drive-- we're constantly looking towards that future and wondering "How do I get there?"
 
But divination goes far deeper than the Magic 8 Ball or a game of MASH- - Divination can help you navigate your current situation and reconcile with your past.  It can help take the emotional load off of your shoulders and give you hope for tomorrow.
 
As three practitioners of divination, we wanted to look deeper into the methods and discover how our ancestors used to perform them (warning... there are entrails,) how we got the tools we have today, and discover NEW tools to enhance our lives.
 
Lauren starts us off with some of the strangest and most gruelling forms of divination from the past, Ashley brings us closer to the present with the discovery and use of RUNES, and Laura teaches us about Oracle Cards and how they differ from their more popular cousin the Tarot.
 
Don't listen to Ashley at the beginning of the episode when she promises personal readings to listeners at the very end-- that's going to be its own episode and will be released ASAP so you can see the types of questions you can ask and the myriad of answers you can receive while divining.
 
If you ever have a question you'd like answered using divination-- join our patreon at www.patreon.com/keepitweirdpodcast!  We're going to be offering MONTHLY readings for our most loyal listeners and YOU could be one of them!

RIP WEIRDOS!  Welcome to Keep It Weird, the podcast for all things strange and unusual, terrific yet terrible, bogus and beautiful and everything in between!

A couple times a month we get together to chat about something WEIRD and of course this week is no exception.  We are going to be taking a trip into the past with a crazy story of reincarnation, storming into a television network to yell at them for creating another horrific reality tv show and visiting a foreign country on the other side of the planet to join a protest!

Ashley starts us off with DONT FEAR THE REAPER and the story of Jenny Cockell, an English GENIUS (no joking around) who has had memories of her past life (excuse me, LIVES) since she was four years old.  In the 90's she was not only able to find the home she lived in in her life before, she was also able to find all of her surviving "children" and reunite them.  

Lauren takes us into REALITY TV CORNER as we explore TLC's 2013 reality tv hit "Best Funeral Ever."  Ok, maybe it wasn't so much of a hit, it only lasted a season and a half but boy was it packed with unique, special and sometimes downright STRANGE funerals.

Then, we hop into WHERE IN THE WORLD IS KEEP IT WEIRD GOING as Ashley takes us for a brief trip to South Korea as we explore the B4 movement.  Bihon, Bichulsan, Biyeonae, Bisekseu: No marriage, no childbirth, no romance, no sex.  It turns out that women DON'T need men to survive and in a lot of cases, it's actually detrimental to our health to be near them.  Sorry not sorry!

TW: foul language, religion, apocalyptic imagery

I'm a loner, Weirdo. A rebel. And you are entering KEEP IT WEIRD: the podcast for all things strange & unusual. We get together every other week and chat about SOMETHING WEIRD and of course this week is no exception.

We are SINGING OUR PRAISES, we are ALIGNING OUR CHAKRAS and we are SPEAKING IN TONGUES this episode is ALL about religion.

Ashley starts us off with one of our favorite segments WHAT IF GOD WAS ONE OF US as we learn all about the RAPTURE. What it is, when it was created and how it differs from what is *actually* in the bible. Ruh Roh.

Lauren takes us into a WHERE IN THE WORLD IS KEEP IT WEIRD GOING and the answer to that question.... is Utah. Utah in the 1930's to be exact, when Mary Ogden brought her spiritualist movement to a hollow rock in the middle of freaking no where and things got weird.
