Who am I?

I'm a writer, producer, professor, podcaster, baseball coach, and dad. I love all things weird and strange. I've had a lifelong fascination with the strange and the weird. I've never seen a UFO but every day I hope that I do.

My Show

What is my podcast about and/or how does it relate to the playlist topic you chose?

What is my podcast playlist about?

When I don't want to listen to the depressing news or when my sports teams are losing, I want to put on something strange that just might give me the chills.

The podcasts I picked and why

1. The Unofficial Official Story Podcast

Why this podcast?

Most paranormal podcasts talk about the same thing over and over, this podcast comes up with new and funny ways of explaining the unexplained.

3. Sword and Scale

Why this podcast?

Most true crime covers the same stories over and over and over, what I love about sword and scale is that they cover new and different cases.

5.0

Sword and Scale is a true crime podcast covering the dark underworld of crime and the criminal justice system’s response to it. The first episode launched January 1st, 2014 and feature stories of murder, abduction, rape, and even more bizarre forms of crime. It’s the purest form of true-crime where the raw uncensored audio tells the story. Everything from 911 calls to court testimony, interviews with victims and sometimes with perpetrators give listeners a 360 degree look at the seedy underbelly of human nature and so-called civilized society. Told from an everyman's point of view, Sword and Scale goes beyond the news clips and the sensationalist headlines to hold up a mirror to the audience and ask, "Is it us versus them? Or are we just like 'them' too?" Sword and scale proves that the worst monsters are real.
