Keep It Weird: A Strange & Unusual Podcast

Don't Panic, Weirdos! TW: photos of mummified remains, death, possible murder & torture, stillbirth, depression, animal abuse Welcome to another episode of KEEP IT WEIRD the podcast for all things strange & unusual, beautiful & batty, creepy & cringe and everything in between! Everytime we get together we chat about something WEIRD and this week we've got quite the adventure for you. Lauren is going to start us off with an UNSOLVED MYSTERY straight out of the BOG. From as far back as the 17th century we have been discovering strangely preserved BODIES in the bogs of Europe, some of which date all the way back to 8000 BC, and no one knows why they are there. The unique physical and biochemical composition of the peat bogs have kept some of these bodies preserved to the point that they still have hair, internal organs and even FOOD (and drugs) in their stomachs. Was this a popular dumping ground for murderers? Was it a holy place used for ritual sacrifice? Did these folks just wander into the bog? We may never know... Then Ashley is taking us DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE for a quest that takes us from Marine Mammal Law all the way to NHI (Non-Human Intelligence) theories as we read some stories about cetaceans, specifically DOLPHINS, and their potential to have special abilities far beyond our understanding. Can they communicate telepathically? Help heal the sick? Act as your doula? Control UFOs? It may sound crazy, but that's because we live in a crazy world. ALSO this episode features our very first WITCHY WEATHER FORECAST hosted by Laura Lareau!! Laura will pop in to every other episode to give us a look at that month's celestial energies, moon phases, and all around witchy festivities to teach us how to celebrate our woo-woo side and get in touch with our inner witch. The FULL forecast will be posted on our YouTube Channel as a separate video if you want to hear the whole thing.
