Buckle up and clasp on your spectral seatbelts as we cruise on the SS Hysteria this week! We're embarking on an otherworldly journey across the goosebump-infused waters of the Venetian Lagoon to dock at Poveglia Island, the top-ranking spook-fest on the global haunted chart!

Brace yourself as we delve into narratives of histories so terrifying, they make a haunted house look like a tea party. Encounter mentally unstable medical professionals and phantoms who've forgotten how to use the exit door. Poveglia's got a macabre menu that includes everything from mass graves of those lost to the plague, to asylums so eerie they'll send shivers shimmying up your spine. Plus, Conspiracy Bot is here and that is terrifying enough!

Are these specters the result of too much spicy Italian food before bed, or are they ethereal inhabitants who've decided to turn their temporary stay into a long-term lease? Grab your EVP recorder and your bravest pair of underpants and join us as we probe the spectral assertions clouding this malevolent mound of mayhem.

On Blurry Hysteria this week we grapple with revelation from the seemingly otherworldly. Our focus today is on a groundbreaking article that's swept the globe, "INTELLIGENCE OFFICIALS SAY U.S. HAS RETRIEVED CRAFT OF NON-HUMAN ORIGIN".

We’re untangling the clandestine testimonies and examining startling admissions from a highly-credible whistleblower who stepped into the light of the Congressional stage. They claim not just the U.S., but various global powers, have quietly retrieved unidentified downed crafts - UAPs (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) and USOs (Unidentified Submarine Objects) alike.

Join us, as we navigate the murky waters of this astounding “disclosure”. Will we find definitive proof of extraterrestrial visitors, or is it a cleverly orchestrated subterfuge? Whether you're a diehard believer, a hardened skeptic, or just someone curious about the extraordinary, this episode promises to challenge your beliefs and ignite your imagination.

This week we dive into the mysterious stone discs allegedly discovered in a cave in China. Are they ancient UFO records or just a 12,000-year-old DJ’s favorite playlist? Or, more likely, just B.S.? 

We won't leave any stone - or disc - unturned. Get ready to rock the truth out of history's tightest corners, as we try to unravel the supposed inscriptions etched in the vinyl of the ancient world. We ask the hard questions like how is Erich von Däniken involved? Was Conspiracy Bot really there? Is where did the album Paul’s Boutique REALLY come from? It's a trip you won't want to miss!

It's "Hoer Verde" time, the Brazilian village that, like a magician's assistant or Conspiracy Bot after a paternity suit, disappeared without a trace! The villagers are said to have vanished, leaving behind only a cryptic message and one used gun.

We unpack this Bermuda Triangle of towns, which went poof! before anybody could say "unexplained phenomenon". We've got "eyewitness" accounts, wild theories (think aliens and black holes), and a hefty helping of pure, unadulterated confusion.

So tune as tell the tale and ask the important question, is this all just B.S.? All that and the return of Kevin this week on Hysteria 51!

We're lassoing some 'out of this world' news from the Lone Star State, where a baffling cattle mystery has struck Texas ranchers once again. Six seemingly healthy cattle have met a bizarre end, all with one thing in common - their tongues mysteriously removed and no signs of blood. Law enforcement is scratching their heads, the ranchers are bewildered, and CBot swears he was not involved. We're going to rustle up some theories and see if we can't shed some light on this peculiar case of tongueless cattle.

Then, we shift gears to decode the intriguing development in the world of Artificial Intelligence. A recent AI experiment promises to make our sci-fi dreams (or nightmares) come true by revealing the thoughts of people through brain scans. It's the latest breakthrough that's blurring the lines between technology and our minds. But what does this mean for our future? Could our deepest, unspoken thoughts now be read like an open book? We're diving deep into this groundbreaking study, its implications, and the ethical conundrum it presents.

Buckle up, truth-seekers, for a wild ride into the strange and the unexplained. We promise, it's a journey you don't want to miss this week on Hysteria 51!

This week the boys are galloping across the sandy vistas of Arizona to uncover the truth behind the legendary Red Ghost of the Wild West. It's a tale of a mysterious beast that left even the grittiest cowboys shivering in their boots - and yes, it involves a camel.

We'll be answering the burning questions - Why was a camel roaming the Arizona desert? Why the heck did this thing shed so bad? And of course, there is a skeleton on it, so was Conspiracy Bot involved???

So tune in get your spit cups ready... for you or the camels, we don't judge... because it's Ghostly Apparitions, Rogue Camels, and the Wild West this week, only on Hysteria 51!

Buckle up as we dive headfirst into the world of cubic creatures and sticky situations. Our hosts Brent & David will guide you through the uncharted waters of Hong Kong's ponds where a bizarre, 24-eyed creature has recently been discovered. They'll uncover the secrets of this peculiar pond dweller and ponder the question: What does it mean to be truly "squared" away?

But that's not all! Our intrepid hosts will also journey to the Mars Wrigley factory, where an unexpected incident has left two workers swimming in a sea of chocolate. We'll explore the finer points of occupational hazards in the confectionery world and investigate the age-old question: Is there such a thing as too much chocolate?

Hey there, Hysteria Nation! This is Kevin Crispin, frequent guest, certified over-thinker, and friend of the show. Robots need not apply - well, except for Kyle, he's the real MVP. Before we dive in, we want to extend our deepest condolences to Brent and Producer Lisa as they grieve the loss of Brent's father-in-law and Lisa’s dad, Rick, who sadly passed away this past week.

In loving memory of Rick and to honor the unique connection he shared with Brent, we're revisiting one of Rick’s all-time favorite episodes – we're traveling way back to Episode 51, which unravels the enigmatic world of Area 51. This topic held a special place in the hearts of both Brent and his father-in-law, sparking endless captivating conversations between them and inspiring the show’s name.

So, let's journey down memory lane together and explore the mysteries of Area 51. And if you're new to the podcast, this is the perfect opportunity to see what all the excitement is about.

Brent and David will be back next week with a brand-new episode, but for now, please join us in celebrating the life of a cherished family member and the extraordinary bond he shared with our friends, Brent and Lisa Hand.

Original Description

In this very special episode of Hysteria 51 we take an introspective look back at the show over the years and the socioeconomic…hahahahah…I can’t. Nope, for our 51st episode we talk our (sorta) namesake – Area 51. What’s there? What isn’t? Do the aliens only communicate with Data from Star Trek? Plus, C-Bot compares the show to Rouge One (he just likes the robot), can a patty melt be classified as a cheeseburger (a debate ensues), and are Lego sets really Area 51 starter kits (was there ever a doubt)? All of that and more on the podcast that can’t quite believe we’ve actually made it to 51 episodes – Hysteria 51.

Fasten your seatbelts, folks, because this bonus episode of Hysteria 51 is taking you on a wild ride! First, we're headed to South Africa, where serpents have traded their usual jungle hangouts for a taste of the high life. Forget about Samuel L. Jackson, because we've got the real deal - snakes on a plane! Join David and Brent as they slither through this bizarre tale of airborne reptiles, discussing how these slippery stowaways managed to board a plane and what the pilot did to keep his cool

Then, we're diving into the murky world of treasure hunting, where a tale of Civil War gold turns into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse with the FBI. Did the Bureau steal a fortune in precious bullion from its rightful owners? All that and more this week on Blurry Hysteria!
