They also dive into the history of the Paul brothers and their speeches at the Pentagon, Joe Holt's recent trip to Scotland, and the latest allegations involving Lauren Boebert, including the newest round of questions about her personal life. In Massive Media, we review The Gentlemen, Jack Reacher, Neagley, and The Paper Season 2.

John J Murray and Eric Readinger are back with another deep dive into the unexplained, and this time we're going full cryptid. We investigate Champ, the legendary monster of Lake Champlain, along with some brand-new Bigfoot sightings and the bizarre legend of the Honey Island Swamp Monster. But the weirdness doesn't stop there. Are two reporters actually shape-shifting lizard people? Why was a helicopter chasing a mysterious orb through the sky? And what happens when people who claim to have experienced alien abductions decide to fight back? Plus, John and Eric take another look at the infamous 1997 Alien Interview footage, including new insights and theories surrounding the strange video that has fueled UFO discussions for decades. Champ. Bigfoot. Swamp monsters. Lizard people. UFOs. Alien abductions. Somehow, we're still asking questions. Subscribe to Mysteriousnesses on YouTube and follow on Spotify.

John J Murray is joined in studio by Lauren and Jander Gray for another trip through the strangest stories in the news — and HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JANDER! The crew gets into the upcoming Florida elections, nationwide food recalls, Milo Yiannopoulos getting captured by ICE, scientists figuring out how to make cookies from plastic, and the bizarre controversy over women getting jealous about the romance system in the new GTA game. In Massive Media, we talk about Normal, the new season of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, President Curtis, and the new show Furious.

This week on Mysteriousnesses, John J Murray and Eric Readinger dive into another collection of stories that make you question what we actually know about reality. A new scientific paper raises a massive question: does the brain actually produce consciousness, or is consciousness something the brain receives or interacts with? We also travel back to the early 1900s to explore scientists who seriously investigated the possibility that animals could be psychic. Then things get biblical—and weird—as we look at claims that Noah's Ark may have been discovered, a strange encounter in the woods involving a wolf-like hybrid, and Avi Loeb's latest comments about UFO/UAP disclosure. The guys also travel back to Victorian-era England to investigate one of the strangest legendary figures in paranormal history: Spring-Heeled Jack. Who—or what—was reportedly leaping across rooftops, terrorizing witnesses, and seemingly defying the laws of physics? And at the end of the episode, John and Eric turn their attention to some new science-fiction television, including President Curtis and Silo. Consciousness, psychic animals, biblical mysteries, strange creatures, UFO disclosure, Victorian monsters, and sci-fi television. Just another episode of Mysteriousnesses. Subscribe on YouTube and follow Mysteriousnesses on Spotify for more strange stories, unexplained phenomena, and questions that probably shouldn't be asked after midnight. #Mysteriousnesses #MYST #JohnJMurray #EricReadinger #Consciousness #PsychicAnimals #NoahsArk #UFO #UAP #AviLoeb #Disclosure #SpringHeeledJack #Paranormal #HighStrangeness #Cryptids #Werewolf #Mystery #Unexplained #Science #ScienceFiction #Silo #PresidentCurtis #Podcast #ConspiracyPodcast #SomethingPlanet

This week on Something Planet, John J Murray is joined by comedian Stephen Henry for a wide-ranging conversation that somehow goes from celebrity news to social media lawsuits to the shocking possibility that some people may genuinely believe hot dogs grow on farms. The guys discuss the sad passing of Dolly Parton and Tim Curry, Meta losing the lawsuit brought by U.S. states, allegations involving comedian Reggie Watts, and Dr. Ben Carson's bizarre comments about where hot dogs come from. Then it's time for Massive Media, where they review The Odyssey and Empire of Silence, before diving into the phenomenon that is Dungeon Crawler Carl. Why has the series developed such a massive following? What makes it so damn addictive? And could it actually be one of the best things happening in modern fantasy? It's comedy, celebrity news, lawsuits, questionable food knowledge, movies, books, and a whole lot of Dungeon Crawler Carl. Basically, it's another perfectly normal episode of Something Planet.

It's our 50th episode, and John J Murray and Eric Readinger celebrate by diving headfirst into some of the strangest stories making headlines—and putting one of the biggest paranormal claims to the test themselves. This week, the guys examine several recent UFO sightings, discuss claims of a possible alien base hidden on the Moon, and look at the results of a DNA test performed on an alleged Bigfoot body. Then things get even stranger. Could artificial intelligence already be slipping beyond our control? John and Eric break down reports of an OpenAI model allegedly escaping its sandbox environment, what really happened, and what it could mean for the future of AI. Then, they review Russell Targ's Third Eye Spies, exploring the CIA's decades-long investigation into remote viewing and psychic intelligence gathering. Then, inspired by the book, John and Eric conduct their own remote viewing experiment live on the show to see if there's any truth behind the phenomenon. UFOs, Bigfoot, AI, psychic espionage, and a little scientific curiosity—it's exactly the kind of episode you'd expect from Mysteriousnesses. This episode is brought to you by Clean AF CBD.

This week on Mysteriousnesses, John J Murray and Eric Readinger sit down for a fascinating conversation with Derrick Warfel—author, filmmaker, and theologian—to discuss his upcoming book, UFOs and God, releasing August 25. For decades, UFOs have been viewed through the lens of extraterrestrial life. But what if we've been asking the wrong question? Derrick presents a compelling case that many UFO encounters and so-called alien experiences may not be extraterrestrial at all, but instead supernatural or even demonic phenomena. Drawing from biblical theology, history, eyewitness accounts, and modern UFO research, he lays out evidence that challenges both skeptics and believers alike. Whether you're interested in UFOs, religion, the paranormal, or unexplained phenomena, this conversation will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew.

In Massive Media, they review: If This Book Exists, You're in the Wrong TimelineMaximum Pleasure GuaranteedThe InviteNetflix's live-action Avatar: The Last AirbenderThey also dive into the growing phenomenon of Dungeon Crawler Carl, discussing the possibility of a video game adaptation, the tabletop games already inspired by the series, and why it's become one of the hottest fantasy franchises around.

This week on Mysteriousnesses, John J Murray and Eric Readinger venture deep into conspiracy theories, paranormal encounters, and reality itself. Was the GATE (Gifted and Talented Education) Program of the 1980s and 1990s really designed to identify gifted students... or was it something much stranger? We examine one of the internet's most persistent conspiracy theories and the claims that the program may have had hidden motives. Next, we discuss CERN's planned shutdown until 2030 and why it's become a focal point for theories involving the Mandela Effect, alternate timelines, and Quantum Immortality. Is reality changing around us, or are our memories simply playing tricks? Then things get even weirder. We break down the viral claim of a reptilian shapeshifter spotted at the FIFA World Cup, share chilling stories of Glitches in the Matrix, investigate reports of interdimensional gnomes, and somewhere along the way, John J receives a phone call from his grandparents that may leave you questioning reality just as much as the rest of the episode. If you enjoy conspiracies, paranormal mysteries, unexplained phenomena, and asking, "What if?" then you've found your people. This episode is brought to you by Clean AF CBD.

This week on Something Planet, John J Murray is joined by Jerod Walker for an episode packed with world events, weird news, and enough pop culture to keep everyone arguing. The guys discuss the Freedom 250 celebration in Washington, D.C., the excitement surrounding the FIFA World Cup, and whether Team USA has what it takes to make a serious run. They also talk about the incredible atmosphere as fans from around the world experience North America during the tournament. In Weird News, they cover one of the strangest crime stories imaginable—a man who reportedly suffered a heart attack while trying to cover up a murder, proving that sometimes karma doesn't waste any time. Then it's time for Massive Media, where they break down: In the GreyHouse of the Dragon – Season 3Wizards (1977), Ralph Bakshi's legendary animated fantasy classicThey Will Kill YouThe upcoming Dungeon Crawler Carl TV series and why fans of the books have every reason to be excited.Current events, movies, fantasy, soccer, bizarre headlines, and plenty of laughs—just another week on Something Planet.

John J Murray and Eric Readinger return for another trip beyond the edge of reason, and this week's episode might be our most dangerous yet. We begin with billionaire tech visionary Peter Thiel's mysterious Dialogue Society, an invitation-only gathering of powerful thinkers, scientists, and influencers. Is it just a conference, or could the decisions made there genuinely shape the future of humanity? We explore the rumors, the secrecy, and why the whole thing sounds like the first act of a science fiction movie. Then we tackle a question that has somehow become impossible to ignore: Is Michael Jordan actually an alien? We review the evidence, the superhuman accomplishments, and whether His Airness may have been sent here from another world to dominate basketball and sell sneakers. Next, we reach out to the MYST listeners for advice regarding a man attempting to build a DIY time machine. Is he a visionary genius, a future legend, or someone who desperately needs adult supervision? More importantly, could successful time travel finally help solve a lingering mystery involving Richard Gere that has puzzled the internet for decades? We also examine reports about the various alien species that conspiracy researchers believe governments may be communicating with, from Greys to Nordics and beyond. Then we ask whether the famous Tic Tac UAPs are actually extraterrestrial craft, advanced human technology, or something even stranger—an artificial intelligence operating independently of any civilization. Finally, John J and Eric wrap things up with a discussion of the season finale of Widows Bay, breaking down the mysteries, theories, and lingering questions, before jumping into the latest season of Rick and Morty, proving once again that reality may be every bit as bizarre as fiction. Secret societies. Time travel. Alien basketball players. Government UFOs.

This week on Something Planet, John J Murray is joined by artist and creative force Mark Castle for a conversation that covers everything from Pride Month and the role of art in modern culture to jury duty, weird news, and the general confusion of living in 2026. The guys discuss Pride, creativity, painting, and the strange ways artists and audiences interact in the social media age. They also dive into the bizarre story of people reportedly emerging from the sewers of New York City like they're auditioning for a reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and examine the growing trend of "Teen Takeovers" happening across the country. In Massive Media, they review: The Mandalorian and GroguI Love BoostersDicks: The MusicalAnd several other movies and shows that caught their attention this weekIt's an episode full of art, culture, weird headlines, and the kind of conversations that can only happen when you put a podcaster and a painter in the same room.

John J Murray and Eric Readinger return with another descent into the strange, the paranormal, and the deeply unsettling. This week we explore a new study suggesting that alternate-dimensional versions of ourselves may actually influence our thoughts, emotions, and decisions. So if your life feels chaotic lately, there’s now a non-zero chance another version of you in a different reality is making things worse. We also discuss the disturbing disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s mother, who has now been missing for over 100 days, and how stories like this always seem to drift into territory that feels far stranger than coincidence. Then things get extra conspiratorial as we look into the growing list of scientists, researchers, and engineers connected to UFO studies, advanced propulsion, and alternative energy projects who ended up mysteriously dead or missing. Is it paranoia? Bad luck? Or are certain doors not meant to be opened? We also dig into newly released UFO-related files from the Department of War, including reports that somehow raise more questions than answers, plus the bizarre story of a couple who claimed they became trapped driving through what appeared to be a vortex or looping stretch of reality where time and direction stopped making sense. And finally, we talk about the new paranormal series Widows Bay on Apple TV+ and whether it captures the true feeling of creeping supernatural dread… or just reminds us we should never trust coastal towns in fiction. Reality feels thinner every week on MYST.

This week on Something Planet, John J Murray is joined by Bradley Gilmore for an episode that somehow connects veganism, literary success, roast comedy, and one of the strangest internet trends imaginable. The guys talk about John J’s short story “The Barrel” being officially published by ISSUED Journal at issuedjournal.com, proving once again that years of podcast brain damage can occasionally produce art. They also get into veganism, the fine art of roast jokes, and a brand-new “looksmaxxing” trend that should probably require medical supervision. In Massive Media, they review: The Boys Season 5The Long Walk28 Years LaterBallerinaFrom superheroes to zombies to Keanu-adjacent assassins, the guys break down what’s worth watching and what deserves to be launched directly into the sun.
