YBOW36: Ghost Foraging Expeditions

Sam leads us on an adventure in Part Two of their Stanley Hotel / Spirits of the Stanley series! We meet all of the ghosts that the team has the chance to meet during their investigations and discuss some Hellier-adjacent themes. This episode also re-affirmed our desires to go out and forage for ghosts ourselves!
For Meducation this week we discuss our recent smoking habits, what we're smoking, and how we've been feeling. Join us on our Weedscapades!
Thank you for listening, as always.

YBOW35: Just 1500’s Things!

Did you miss hearing about awful things? We thought so!
Jess gave us a brief biography of Elizabeth Bathory this week. We discussed conspiracy, misogyny, and all of those quirky things people used to do in the 1500's. No literal blood bathing in this episode unfortunately, just a lot of badassery (and possibly murder).
Sam hit us with some knowledge about other drugs and drug classification for this week's edition of Meducation. We learned this week that our sentencing system is completely fucked up and are not shocked at all!
Thanks for listening!

Welcome back to Your Brain On Weird and our first episode following the New Year!
This week Sam introduced us to The Stanley Hotel and it's history. We discuss hotel architecture, Steven King, and get an introduction to some of the Stanley's ghosts. This is part one of a multi-part inter-connected series, so you won't want to miss it!
Then Jess gave us some resolutions for New Years for our fellow cannabis users and things you can do to help your comrades in 2021.

YBOW33: Satan is Me!

Happy New Year!!
Take a hit for every time we say "Satan" in this episode (do so responsibly).
For the start of 2021 Jess brought us the topic that we've been asked about the most! We found out that, as Satanists, we apparently have supernatural powers and can transform into cats and also fleas! We also discuss the history of Satanism and its effect on people in modern times.
Join us for some Light and Casual Satanism!
Hail Satan!

Welcome to back to *fanfare* a bonus episode of YBOW! We took last month off but came back with some crazy stories to make your brain just a little weird. This time around we talked weird gravestones, trans rights in the early 1900's, and creepy cryptids.

YBOW32: Snake in a Lake

Connie, Nessie, and Champ, oh my! This week Sam added another water cryptid to our arsenal with the story of Kooshii, the lake monster from Japan. They are a very shiny boi with a need for speed! Spoiler alert: we LOVE Kooshii.
Jess took out the Science edition of High Times again for some light reading about mutant weed! HIGHLY recommend you have an image search available for this one.
Thanks for listening!

YBOW31: Too Many Acronyms

We recorded on a different day this week and things got CRAZY! 
SPOILER ALERT: If you haven't listened to Episode 30, turn your ass around and go listen to that first! This week, Jess covered Part Two of Skinwalker Ranch. Word is out about this "Paranormal Disneyland" and everyone wants to be involved, including the vocalist of one of our favorite pop-punk bands. If you're an eccentric property magnate with an interest in aliens, take a number!
Sam then gave us an update on cannabis legalization in the US, we discussed Yule and how cannabis can be a part of your celebrations, and also decided on a new slogan!
Thanks for listening!

YBOW30: Low-Flying Cows

It's time for the story that inspired us to make a podcast! Welcome to Jess's first two-parter, the story of Skinwalker Ranch. For the first half, we discussed the history of the area, local legends, and what happened for the two years that the Sherman's owned the ranch. They've got poltergeists, cryptids, UFO's, portals, footballs - Skinwalker Ranch has it all!
Sam then gave us an update on where marijuana legalization stands for the United States.
Thanks for listening!
