We head down to Texas and visit Old Alton Bridge, also known as Goatman’s Bridge. Various origin stories are tied to this urban legend, including a successful black goat farmer that was lynched along with multiple demonic rituals. Either way, this bridge is known to be incredibly haunted. But, do we believe it? Listen now to find out!
Note: we were a little tired and a little loopy during the recording of this episode. Just thought a little context might be nice!

Tuesday Aug 17, 2021
Welcome to Believing the Bizarre. This week, we cover the true story that inspired the terrifying film, The Exorcist. No, we don't talk about children walking downstairs like spiders or spinning heads, but that doesn't mean the "reportedly" true facts aren't chilling. A 14-year-old boy, with the pseudonym Roland Doe, tried to contact his late aunt with a Ouija board, and all hell breaks loose. Multiple Pastors take on the fight for Roland Doe's life as his surroundings and well-being begin crumbling around him. Find out our thoughts, and more, by listening today!

Listener Submission Collection Vol. 1
Tuesday Jul 20, 2021
Tuesday Jul 20, 2021
Welcome to another episode of Believing the Bizarre. This week, we are mixing it up! As you know, every couple of weeks we put out an episode that is a Listener Submission - essentially an episode dedicated to a listener's personal paranormal encounter.
However, occasionally we receive a submission that is shorter and cannot fill an entire episode. We feel these episodes deserve their time in the limelight, too. So, welcome to the beginning of our Listener Submission Collections!
This week, we have three episodes that range from cave-dwelling creatures and UFOs to a ghost investigation gone wrong. But, how #believable are they? Listen now!
*Also - you may or may not be finally getting some of Tyler and Charlie’s personal paranormal encounters in this episode…

The Chemtrails Conspiracy
Tuesday Jul 06, 2021
Tuesday Jul 06, 2021
Let's take a look at a very popular theory - chemtrails. Or, as they are known in the scientific community, contrails. Environmentalists claim these smokey streaks we see behind planes in the sky are simply water vapor that turns into ice droplets - mixed with carbon dioxide and minimal sulfur from the plane’s engine. However, many believe that these streaks are the cause of illness, population control, weather manipulation, and even mind control! But, how do the facts stack up? Listen now.
