SFR 527: Picked Up by the Paddy Wagon

Explicit content warning

06/08/20 • -1 min

–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.

Previous Episode

SFR 526: As the World Burns

–Kicking things off with the issue on everyone’s mind right now: the death of George Floyd, and the protests, riots, and looting that has followed.
–Do you value someone’s life over property? Some might say yes. But a debate between Jason and Bobby ends up causing one of them to “do a 180” from their initial position.
–SpaceX “Launch America” was a success, and while Bobby didn’t care enough to bother watching, Jason thought it was the best story of the week. One bright spot in an otherwise dark week.
–These kids today stay inside too often and play video games, says two old men who host a podcast. But, if Bobby is right, and the children of the future will be “hanging out” with each other in VR simulations, what will their parents have to complain about?
–We are getting so old that our teenage selves would look at us with contempt. Jason talks about growing up a punk rocker, and now happily spending quiet evening listening to Brahms. Bobby’s wife caught him watching birds through a pair of binoculars. How much longer until he is staring out a window getting joy out of watching a dog poop? Our transition into the characters of The Burbs continues
–SOLVING UNSOLVED MYSTERIES:
We tell the story of the Circleville Writer, and the attempted murder charge that came of it. Was Paul Freshour really the culprit? Is there much more to the story that hasn’t been told? Next week: Bobby would like to delve into the Heidi Wyrick ghost story, as well as the story of Dannion Brinkley. During the episode, though it takes us several minutes, we find the episode in question is listed as season 7, episode 5. But after the show, Jason finds that it is on Youtube as episode 4 of that year. Here’s a link. And you can always find it later on our Facebook page.
–Also next week, let’s talk about the possibility of mandatory vaccines, be it for COVID-19, or a future, even deadlier virus. Until then, stay weird and stay tuned.

Next Episode

SFR 528: Puckering Buttholes

–Sundays suck. Except for recording Strange Frequencies Radio, all we do is just think about having to go back to work the next day.
–The new Unsolved Mysteries is coming to Netflix on July 1st. But it has no host, and there’s only one case per episode. We aren’t liking what we’re hearing so far.
–Jason reads the episode titles and synopsis for the first six UM episodes, and there seems to be a theme.
–SOLVING UNSOLVED MYSTERIES
Bobby has been stewing on the Dannion Brinkley story for the past week. First, he asks Jason to recap the near-death experience as he did last week, then Bobby goes into an unsolved murder case that Dannion claims to have helped solve. Would it surprise you to find that we aren’t impressed by the account?
–Maybe you’re a skeptic, but have you ever had a premonition that ended up coming true? Bobby shares a psychic-style dream he had years ago, and how he saved his own life by remembering it in time. Pretty wild! We then share stories from the Freqs. After we get through the jokes made at Bobby’s expense, there’s a couple spooky ones!
–Most of us have an unpopular opinion or two, and some of us are afraid to express them publicly due to fear of public shaming or just taking shit about it. Well, not our audience apparently, and that’s why we love them! Some of the opinions shared are not only brave, but even funny at times.
–Jason thinks we are witnessing the ongoing birth of a new secular religion, complete with original sin, Bibles, excommunication and/or banishment, and penance, among other things. Even the way language is being used and manipulated is strange. Bobby gets more and more uncomfortable the longer he goes. Jason has mercy on him and closes out the show to avoid his butthole puckering up further.
