Well Hello, Weirdos! Long time, no SEE!!

Welcome to Keep It Weird, the podcast for all thing strange and unusual, stalker-ish and sleepy, spooky, scary and everything in between.

We wanted to keep things EXTRA SCARY for another month because October was so crazy busy so welcome to SECOND OCTOBER!! October Part Two!

This week Lauren starts us off with a rare TRUE CRIME TIME and the story of the Kuykendall Family Phone Stalker! In 2007 someone was able to not only clone the phones of the Kuykendall family but also somehow WATCH THEM INSIDE THEIR HOUSE. It's a case that remains unsolved to this day and boy oh boy do we hate that.

Then Ashley takes us to a PARANORMAL PARADISE as we explore some real life haunts out of the legendary village of SLEEPY HOLLOW!! It may not be haunted by a headless hessian soldier, but that doesn't mean the place isn't crawling with old 16th century ghouls! Classic wailing women, the ghost of an American traitor, a witch of the wood and possibly even some new world FAE!

Hail to the Cardinal, Hail to the White, Weirdos!!

Welcome to a very special Halloween episode-- It's our WEIRD CENTRALIA LIVE SHOW!!

This month Lauren and Ashley had the pleasure of traveling to Centralia, IL to perform to a sold out audience at the Centralia Area Historical Society Museum!

We got to chat about ALL THINGS C-TOWN including, but not limited to: The Orphans, May Fete, the Thunderbird, Violin Anne, the 1947 Mine Disaster, Copple's Mansion, the Perrine House & Perrine's Orchard!

We laugh, we cry, we SCREAM - this episode is a lot of things. I HIGHLY recommend watching this ep on YOUTUBE (www.youtube.com/keepitweirdpodcast) as we also did have a slideshow presentation and you'll be able to see all the things the audience is reacting to: Old photos, newspaper clippings, even a couple videos!

This was one of the most special weekends of our lives and that's all because of the people of Centralia. Everyone who shared their stories with us, taught us about the town's history, invited us to the town museum (Thank you Rick Dodson, Mike Middleton and Jessycka Nix Coleman!) FED us (thank you Simply Soul LLC!) rented us a place to stay (thank you Mallory Fisk!) lent us some audio visual equipment and bought tickets and came out to see our show. We were floored!

This show was meant to be a CELEBRATION of Centralia and I do believe we accomplished our goal. I feel closer to my hometown than ever before... and maybe a little more creeped out by it.

GO ORPHANS!!!!

TRIGGER WARNING: Actually NO cursing-- unless you count "heck" so good for us! But we do talk about death, murder, suicide, slavery AND man-eating birds; so be aware.

Yaaaassss, Weirdos!

Welcome to SPOOKY SEASON!!! You know what that means. Pumpkins. Horror movies. Ghouls. Girls, gays & theys!

This week is a very special episode where we are celebrating QUEER HORROR!!

Our special guest this week is an American author, playwright and theater director of (get this) HELLGATE HIGH Mr. Laramie Dean!!

We are exploring the horror genre all the way back to the gothic novels of the 1800's to the campy gore of the 80s and to our explicitly queer films today. The LGBTQA+ community has always found representation in the horror genre - sometimes they had to hide their queerness, sometimes they got it WAY wrong but nevertheless their stories and films have inspired generations of us throughout the last century and a half and for that we are eternally grateful!

So join us as we chat Mary Shelley, James Whale, John Waters, Interview with the Vampire, Chucky, and so much more.
