–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.

–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.

–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.

–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.

–We open the show this week celebrating the Ouija board and its 130th anniversary year. Bobby has an original. Seriously, one of the original produced boards. And the way he got it is almost unbelievable. But is sure makes Jason jealous.
–Should the government be able to mandate a COVID-19 vaccine? We hear from our listeners who have a variety of opinions, ranging from arguments based in personal liberty to public safety. Plus, hear our conversation on the differences between what is happening now, and how opinions and enforcement could change if a newer, deadlier virus someday emerges.
—SOLVING UNSOLVED MYSTERIES
We cover the story of Gordie’s Ghost, featuring a child named Heidi Wyrick, famed parapsychologist Dr. William Roll, and a couple ghosts. Not sure we “solve” this one as much as we just offer alternative explanations for the events depicted, but it’s still a good conversation.
–Despite Bobby now saying he wants to cover the Dannion Brinkley Near-Death Experience episode of Unsolved Mysteries next week, he couldn’t stop talking about it. So Jason chimes in with details from Dannion’s past that solidify contradicts his popular account. But maybe we’ll still talk more about it next week because there’s so much more to it than just an NDE.
–We’re not quite sure how it happened, but the last 30+ minutes or so of the show is us reminiscing about guests we’ve had (or not had) on the show, and how many of them infuriated us to a certain extent. The segment includes, but is not limited to: Lanaia Lee, Darwin Linn, Raymond Moody, and some fucking asshole whose name we can’t remember.

–Halloween, for us, was fairly uneventful. We’re old. But the kids persevered despite the crummy weather and brought back loads of candy.
–Reports of razor blades being found in candy in Ohio has us scratching our heads. Though one report sounds just a tad suspicious.
–Bobby talks about a friend of his who worried about cultural appropriation at school around Halloween. Jason says that white liberals treat minorities as their pets, and most of this really comes down to the need for power and control. It’s not about trying to change minds, instead there’s always a punishment involved. (Here are the videos Bobby references: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IT2UH74ksJ4 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNXm7juuM-8.)
–Jason does announcements, and Bobby helps put a new spin on them.
–Well the word around the campfire is that Epstein didn’t kill himself. We break down the latest from the perspective of Dr. Michael Baden, who thinks the evidence right now points more toward homicide, and from NY Chief Medical Examiner Dr. Barbara Sampson who stands by her office’s conclusion that it was suicide. We need to hear your thoughts!
–Next up is a little impeachment talk, since it appears the more private hearings are over, and the public hearings will begin soon. Bobby is torn on a few items, while Jason won’t judge until he can hear and examine the evidence, and not what certain politicians and media outlets are putting out to boost their narratives.
–Finally, we each talk about what we’ve been watching on Netflix. Bobby just saw a documentary about an infamous high school football rape case called Roll Red Roll. Meanwhile, Jason is watching the Netflix version of Cold Case Files and really enjoying it.
–See you again next time!

–There’s just a handful of days until Halloween and Bobby is thrilled about a Christmas ale he found.
–A family waiting for the End Times is discovered in a secret room in the Netherlands when one guy walks away and orders some beers.
–A Sandy Hook father has won a defamation case against a denier who published a book filled with malicious falsehoods.
–Are THC edibles being passed out to kids for Trick or Treat to make them trip balls? No. It’s an offshoot of an old myth, always prevalent around this time of year, where a boogey man poisons Halloween candy. Don’t buy into it.
–Bobby is now CPR certified, and can now save Jason’s life when he inevitably collapses after too many pizzas. That’s good! But the scary part is where he found traces of fentanyl are being located. In short, be extra careful in public bathrooms.
–Payton Leutner, the 2012 Slenderman attack victim, speaks out for the first time about what she went to, and what she thinks about her attackers.
–Is there a movie you have to watch each Halloween? The Freqs weigh in with their answers. Bobby always has to watch the original Halloween on Halloween. Jason doesn’t have one in particular, but thinks he’ll go with Sleepaway Camp this year.
–Bobby reviews the Creepshow tv series, now available on Shudder.
–A guy with a “Jesus Saves” runner’s bid collapses at a race, and a guy named Jesus helps save him.
–Edward Snowden was on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, and confirms that he could find no evidence of past alien visitation during his time as an intelligence analyst in the CIA. Also, climate change is real, chemtrails aren’t a thing, and the moon landing happened.
–We end with the deal of ISIS founder and leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and the idea of giving credit where credit is due.

–Fresh off Oktoberfest at the Nelson family abode, Strange Frequencies Radio is back. We’re still full from the beers and brats, but dammit we’re ready to go!
–Let’s start off light. Stranger Things has been renewed for season 4 (no shock there) and we’re not in Hawkins anymore. Plus, the Duffer Brothers have signed a fat deal to continue producing content for Netflix. What wonders might we have in store?
–Let’s talk fake hate/bias crimes again. We mention two, one involving a 6th grade black girl who lied about three white boys cutting off her dreadlocks, and another here local to us about a black mother blaming a “white bitch” for an attempted kidnapping.
–Bobby, an unabashed Star Wars nut, is very upset after seeing Mark Hamill took a big dump on Ivanka Trump after she shared an image of her young child in a stormtrooper costume. Jason bemoans the divisiveness, where not even images of kids are safe from rage due to political squabbles.
–Bernie Sanders suffers a heart attack on the campaign trail, and we discuss whether or not he should drop out of the race.
–The trial of Amber Guyger for the killing of Botham Jean is over, with the former Dallas police officer being sentenced to 10 years, with the possibility for parole in 5. But Jason was moved by the act of true humanity and forgiveness on display from the Jean family, and wishes the more sanctimonious among us could take a lesson from it.
–Bobby showed Jason the Sandy Hook Promise “back to school” commercial that debuted a couple weeks back, and we discuss whether ads like this, as well as the “active shooter drills” going on in American schools do far more harm than good.
–We end the show with a report and video of a UFO sighting in North Carolina, and break down the likeliest explanations. Is it aliens? Or flares?

–SFR is here again, and we’ve recorded for back to back weeks for the first time in what feels like months. But the more things change, the more they stay the same. Bobby holding a kid again.
–Okay, we can’t ignore it. The Trump impeachment inquiry is underway. We recap the basics of the story, and hope most everyone can at least agree that what the president did was wrong. But, should he be removed from office over it? Was the act severe enough (at least based on what we know now) to nullify the results of an election? We give our answers, and we hope you’ll contact us to give us yours.
–We despise Cancel Culture, and yet it has reared its ugly head again in the case of Carson King, a young man who raised millions for a children’s hospital, only to have his good deed tarnished by a reporter who dug up a couple inappropriate tweets he made around 8 years ago, when he was a teenager.
–The Des Moines Register reporter who helped “cancel” Carson King, is now out of a job after his own bad tweets were dug up. He seems to think he is the real victim as well. Where does the madness end?!?
–Swedish teen Greta Thunberg becomes the face and voice of a climate movement, which is amazing. But Jason has serious concerns whenever adults task their children with the responsibility of being the leaders of a movement.
–We touch on how activists have to have more substance to their argument than just emotion. Know your facts, know your history, and at least know the science or mechanics behind what you’re being an activist for. Because your opponents probably will, and they’ll kick your ass if you aren’t careful.
–We end the show this week with a powerful and uplifting email from a listener who has been with us a lot longer than we ever knew. Listen, and hear Bobby and Jason not only be touched emotionally, but encouraged to keep evolving, growing, and challenging ourselves and others.

–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.
