Your Brain On Weird

A Little Weird: Vol. 7

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.
Join us and leave with some stuff to think about!

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!
TW: Cattle mutilation, animal death

YBOW29: Foraging For Ghosts

Our brains are a little extra weird this time! Sam took us back to Ireland and told the story of Leap castle, where a bunch of really brutal stuff happened. It's definitely haunted in a bunch of weird ways. Remember, if you're going to make a living as an assassin, accept payment up front!
Then Jess reads us an article about edibles from the Science issue of High Times. How's THAT for science!
Thanks for listening!

YBOW28: Next Level Sandwiches (with Jeff)

TW: Suicide
This week we welcome back Jeff, except this time we're getting base broth Jeff. A more grounded Jeff, if you will. We sat down and he told us the story of the Heaven's Gate cult. They just couldn't stick to the deli or software development... However, they did get a GREAT deal on the shoes! It may be the most dangerous Crew you could ever decide to join.
Jeff also gave us some quick facts and warnings about our brains, on drugs!
Thank you so much for listening.

YBOW27: The Demon-Summoning Bridge

It's lucky number 27 (or "the exorcist" on naeq.io)!
Sam took us to Texas this week to check out Goat Man's Bridge. We are once again reminded that racism and white supremacy are the root of some of our favorite stories. We also found out that Jess is actually Goat Man and we decided to plan a trip to summon Baphomet once we are released from quarantine.
Jess got a little personal this week and shared her recent successes with taking CBD for a multitude of issues, then told us all the ways you can try CBD for yourself! (PSA: DO NOT BUY CBD ON AMAZON)
This also somehow ended up being our "Sister's Episode" thanks to some weird synchronicities.
Thanks for listening!

YBOW26: An Owl Wearing A Pleated Skirt

Welcome back to Your Brain On Weird, where everything is an owl apparently! Jess talked about the cryptid (alien?) that she thinks may be the sexiest, the Flatwoods Monster. Do they have arms? The world may never know. But they sure are fashionable!
Sam then gave us an update on what states are making moves for (or against) cannabis legalization in the US. Watch out for those stoners eating Twinkies outside of pot shops! They'll get ya!
Thanks for joining our brains once again!

A Little Weird: Vol. 6 (with Jeff)

First of all, sorry for pushing back this month's mini episode - October was crazy! However we think you'll like what we came up with.
The voice of our disclaimer joined us for this month's A Little Weird! Please welcome Rough-and-Tumble Podcast Jeff! Jess read some questions from Yahoo! Answers MBMBAM style and Jeff and Sam offered their professional insight. If you've been wondering how to sign up for Project Pegasus or the Top Ten Ways To Tell You're Possessed, this is the Little Weird for you!
Thanks for listening!

YBOW25: Halloween Ramblin’ Party (with Seth & Chelsey)

Happy Halloween and Blessed Samhain! We got together (on Zoom) with two of our closest occult pals to talk about all things creepy, weird, and scary. Seth told us about some of his personal experiences, we talked about the scariest things to ever happen to us, and we discuss Mothman's Butt in depth. We also discussed pooping ghosts, sexy cryptids, and how Seth is actually the Ozark Howler. We had so much fun recording this and we hope you'll join us!
There was no Meducation this week as we decided to focus on the Weird.
Thanks for listening!
