01/22/21 • -1 min
–SFR is back! No server, no real iTunes, no fucks given. We’re available on our website via the Dropbox link.
–What have we been up to during the time away? Jason considers himself the Universal Constant. If you’re time traveling, use him to keep yourself tethered because he’s always the same as the last time you talked to him. Bobby took up sports betting, having good days and dreadfully bad days along the way. Jason joined him along the way but has since ceased losing his money to crappy websites.
–We discuss the new Night Stalker documentary on Netflix. We each wish there was more Night Stalker involved, agreeing that it should be been edited down to a tight 75-90 minutes or so.
–That reminds us of the potential serial rapists & killers we know, and they just happen to be related to Bobby.
–The incredible story of crazy Cousin Junior. I don’t even want to give away what you’re about to hear.
–We would be remiss if we didn’t talk about the new president in office, Joe Biden. Jason hopes that the people who lost their minds over the last 4 years gain some semblance of a personality again.
–Jason, the self-proclaimed Secretary of Snacks (always waiting for his official government appointment) that the Geico Tag Team ice cream commercial is the first step to heal the nation. Trump is gone, Biden is in, and we don’t know how that will turn out. But we do think it is impossible to feel stress while watching them parody their hit song with while making sundaes.
–Let us now bask in our own glory while we share with you nearly a half decade worth of our predictions that came true.
–Bobby had a tooth pulled recently and it was quite an ordeal.

SFR 540: Twenty Twenty-Four

–Jason was confused by a text Bobby sent him earlier, so Bobby has to explain about the Nelson’s newest foster child.
–Though we don’t exactly do a “paranormal talk show” any more, Jason still hunts for paranormal stories. This leads us to talk about the kind of topics within that peak at certain times, while others are here year round.
–Bobby is in full on Christmas mode, with his tree up and jamming to the music. Still, we can’t leave out Thanksgiving because Jason loves a holiday all about eating. We lament that there aren’t more Thanksgiving movies.
–Bobby has injured his mouth with a toothpick and must see a dentist bright and early.
–We swap a few stories about our own doctor and dentist experiences, but Bobby relays a procedure his dad has to undergo that is just a tad scarier.
–Covid is never ending. In fact, Jason has decided that whatever the news media and public health officials say, he is going to assume it’s actually a level or two worse.
–Bobby has replaced one obsession (his health) with another, fixating on Trump and political news. We share a few thoughts about the ongoing claims of election fraud, and what the outlook is for 2024.
–Jason is looking forward to the new John Douglas book, because it brings together two of his lifelong interests: true crime and white nationalism. Meanwhile, Bobby is awaiting the arrival of new autographs he has coming.
–Bobby gets a new doorbell at a discount, but ends up having to spend the savings and more to have an electrician install it.

SFR 539: Renegade Radio

11/09/20 • -1 min
–Where have we been? Well, within the last month, we managed to get suspended from our webhost and server, and Bobby (and family) all got COVID. How has your month been?
–After the alternating funny and disgusting stories, we reiterate how to listen to the podcast for those who want to continue tagging along with the nomads Jason and Bobby.
–While we were away, James Randi died. We share what he meant to us, as well as our memories of getting the chance to interview him a few different times on this podcast.
—Alex Trebek, too, has died. We talk about how not only was he the perfect host for Jeopardy, always making knowledge cool, he also handled his illness in an incredible way.
—The election, seemingly, is all over but the crying. And there’s still some crying left to do. We talk about some of the crap we got from listeners over the last year and a half over our political prognostication. Bobby takes his victory lap, ensuring us all that he is not, nor will he ever be, a humble winner. Jason cautions those who believe “everything will be fine” now that their preferred candidate won, and explains while he will never believe in a fair and impartial mainstream press again.

SFR 538: Kissing Corpses
Downloads – Strange Frequencies Radio
10/13/20 • -1 min
–Strange Frequencies Radio is back in your life, continuing Werewolf October, and talking a bit about its origins.
–Bobby has a basement dweller and he is hiding in a corner. Jason talks about an epic battle with a creepy crawler of his own that still chills his spine to this day.
–Knoxville man attempts to “resurrect” his grandma, according to a headline. But Jason sort of wonders if a few elements in the case suggest a different explanation.
–WTF moments including a (possibly true, possibly not) recurring dream about a man’s dead wife drowning in her grave, and a nearly decade old video of a man unveiling and kissing (who he purports is) his dead, decaying grandma in her casket.
–Bobby reviews the Hulu series MonsterLand. And by review, we mean he just tells you everything that happens in a couple episodes. So, ya know, spoiler alert.`
–Jason recommends a couple true crime documentaries making waves, A Wilderness of Error and American Murder. Both involve men serving time for an eerily similar crime: the murder of their pregnant wife and two young daughters. The difference is the levels of brutality involved.
–Listener topics: the Freqs want us to talk about the trailer of a new movie called Fatman, Gef the Talking Mongoose, and we answer a couple political questions. –We quickly recap the VP debate, but it’s either a shame or just a sign of the times that the thing many will take away from it is a fly on Pence’s head.

SFR 537: Small Town Monsters
Downloads – Strange Frequencies Radio
10/05/20 • -1 min
–SFR is in your ears, and It’s Werewolf October, our favorite time of the year! Expect talk of monsters and other creatures throughout this episode and repeating throughout the month. As it should be!
–Bobby bought the latest Halloween sequel to rewatch and found himself liking it. Jason remembers how we criticized it after our theatrical viewing, but also thinks time has healed the wounds.
–A look back at the last week, including the “debate” and Trump testing positive for COVID-19 and being hospitalized. We give you a few pros and cons from both sides of the political aisle.
–Bobby defends Trump from death threats and hate regarding his COVID diagnosis.
–Jason is begging to get to listener-submitted topics, so off we go. We go through everything from pedophilia and 2020 being God’s punishment to guns and shoes. Yes, shoes.
–Is a robot being built at Area 51? One “UFO expert” seems to say so. But we end up talking about games we played with friends or siblings that involved undercover missions.
–Choose your fighter! We pick through a chart of cryptids and decide which monster would win in a round-robin tournament. But, as Jason says, he has a soft spot for the small-town monster (or at least those that sound like they are). So we finish the show talking a bit about the Ozark Howler and the Cabbagetown Tunnel Monster.

SFR 536: What’s Going On?

09/28/20 • -1 min
–Back in the saddle, and back in your ears. It’s been a few weeks, but we’re glad to be with you.
–The reason for our absence? As explained on our Facebook page, Bobby had a sick wife and a grandma dying simultaneously. Bobby shares some memories of his late grandma, Jason tells a story about the time her eyes pierced his very soul, and then we somehow laugh about crying.
–We’re winging it here, so the topic of Bobby’s brother-in-law’s eating is a sight (and sound) to behold.
–Ruth Bader Ginsberg dies, so here we go again. The Republicans are moving fast to replace her with Amy Coney Barrett and there is hypocrisy in spades
–Next, we talk about some potential Doomsday-style scenarios with the election, lawsuits, recounts, and tie votes in courts.
—Trump’s tax returns have come out, and we laugh about Trump’s write offs for his hair care. Bobby believes this issue will play negatively for those on the fence, while Jason gives his advice for both candidates as they head into the debates.

SFR 535: Solving Sightings
Downloads – Strange Frequencies Radio
09/08/20 • -1 min
–Just before we started recording, we had a conversation Jason asks Bobby to continue here on the podcast. Namely, how Bobby got roped into helping his daughter with her last minute homework.
–How old were you when you had your first male teacher? Bobby was in 6th grade, Jason was in 7th. Jason talks about how, fairly or unfairly, male teachers for young kids sometimes get a reputation as being gay or pedophiles. We then proceed to talk about how some of the first male teachers in our lives were busted for possessing and/or distributing child pornography.
–Uncomfortable conversation time. Is pedophilia a mental disorder? What if it is just a kind of sexual orientation like homosexuality? Would it have to be accepted?
–Jason gives an enthusiastic recommendation of Cobra Kai, a show Bobby has maybe seen 15 minutes of before becoming bored. Jason tempts fate by saying he may like it more than Stranger Things.
–Bobby regales us with stories of his recent time at the family lake house, why he doesn’t enjoy the beach, and instead prefers to sit inside and watch movies.
–SOLVING SIGHTINGs: We take a look at s3e01 of the 90s paranormal television newsmagazine, Sightings, and give our thoughts on the “Heartland Ghost” aka Sallie House episode of the show.
–We veer off and reminisce a bit about our ghost hunting days and why we, as opposed to most of our friends and fellow ghost hunters, we got more curious and the anomalous phenomenon we would run across.
–Back to the Sallie House haunting, and we discuss the time we interviewed one of the subjects of the alleged haunting, and she absolutely blew our minds with a horrible story involving a cat. You have to hear this to believe it.
–We end the show talking about how much we hate fake psychics, with a special amount of disdain for the late Sylvia Browne.

SFR 534: The Joy of Being Scared
Downloads – Strange Frequencies Radio
09/01/20 • -1 min
–SFR is back in your life! Bobby is on-call, and Jason is breaking bald. So before we get to the big issues, let’s cover a little older ground
—Facebook freaks at the amount of people on Pages and Groups dedicated to QAnon, so decided to ban thousands in an effort to “limit violent rhetoric.” Uh, I don’t think it worked.
—Is Netflix guilty of sexualizing kids? A controversy sprung up over the streaming companies marketing of a movie involving 11yo dancers. And Jason is creeped out by the fact it is rated TV-MA.
–If you enjoyed Unsolved Mysteries 2.0, get ready for more in mid-October. We didn’t enjoy it much ourselves, but will likely still check out the new bath of episodes.
–Bobby saw the new Bill & Ted movie, and found enjoyment in mindless dumb fun in the midst of real-world chaos.
–Also, he is slowly leading his middle daughter deeper into the realm of horror movies through Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, and Silence of the Lambs.
–Jason thinks Silence of the Lambs is more effective horror than most modern horror movies. Bobby agrees, and we then discuss a particular near-meaningless scene that has somehow played a huge role in our lives now for years.
–We decide to delve back into the paranormal a bit by watching old episodes of Sightings and discussing individual cases on Strange Frequencies. First up, the Sallie House haunting. Watch it along with us.
–Finally, we get into a bit of the Republican convention. Jason talks about some cringey moments, and moments that deserved a fact check. Then, before we could even get to the bigger speeches, like that of Tim Scott and Donald Trump himself, we get sidetracked.
–Police shootings are again in the news. Jason wants to devote a future episode to a rational discussion of the circumstances in which we feel it is acceptable or necessary for an officer to use deadly force. Using real life circumstances from popularly viewed video footage, maybe an open conversation like that can help.

SFR 533: That Goddamn Batman
Downloads – Strange Frequencies Radio
08/24/20 • -1 min
–We figure to get into the Democratic National Convention, but first Bobby unexpectedly gets into how much he hates the trailer to The Batman
–Since Jason missed most all of the Democratic Convention due to work, Bobby leads the way discussing his favorite and least favorite moments, with Jason chiming in a bit here and there based on what he watched after the fact.
–Michelle Obama’s speech got people hyped, but we turn the tables on it a bit, fact-checking her distortion about the “kids in cages” issue. Mainly because her husband’s administration built those facilities and used them for the same reasons.
–Bobby goes over the lineup for the upcoming Republican Convention which, yes, we will discuss on the next episode of SFR.
–Breaking News (at least while we were recording): Kellyanne Conway is leaving the White House, and her husband George Conway is stepping back from his Trump criticisms as well. Bobby talks about how they seem to have done it for the sake of their kids. Jason says, if he were in that situation, he would never have tried to create as much conflict as George did.
–Bobby fawns over Joe Biden’s speech, and Jason takes a moment to fact check the infamous “fine people on both sides” issue that Biden says led him to run. The truth is, Trump condemned the Nazis and white nationalists, and yet that distortion has continued now for years.
–Will Trump need a miracle to win the White House? Did he get a potential miracle with a coronavirus treatment announced recently? Bobby raises some skepticism about the proposed treatment, while Jason speaks out against the constant manufactured scandals, laments the continued lack of trust in the election process, and warns of anyone thinking their preferred candidate has the election wrapped up in August.

–Bobby’s animals are destroying his microphone and mixing board bit by bit, and Jason can totally relate.
–Star Wars nerds can rejoice at our May the Fourth and Revenge of the Fifth conversation. Our resident nerd, Bobby, got a very special item in time for the make shift holiday.
–Jason and Bobby will be hanging with the boys this Saturday for our first big hang since the start of the pandemic. We’ll have some food and laughs and watch a UFC event. We’re hoping for violence and bloodshed!
–Our mutual pal Jeremy is having gastric bypass surgery. Or is he? Bobby makes the case why he thought he was faking it.
–Jason had the second dose of the Moderna vaccine. He explains his experience with the process, and talks about one weird possible side effect.
–Why are so many people not getting their 2nd vaccine dose?
–Reliving our memories of Southwyck Mall here in Toledo.
–Would you want to go back and relive certain moments during your teen years?
