Professional Weirdo Podcast
Where I research strange stories and tell them to you. Because, let’s face it, I’m gonna research this anyway and blurt it to someone, might as well be a willing audience. Some of these stories might get dark, morbid, murdery…. so listener discretion is advised.
Professional Weirdo Podcast
Episode 6 - The Strangers Came Today
We're getting "far out" and talking about UFOs. What’s your theory? Weird weather phenomena? Experimental, top-secret military aircraft? Little green spacemen?
Songs I recommend with today’s episode can be found on the Spotify playlist:
- Outer Space by John Grant
- 3rd Planet by Modest Mouse
- Oh! You Pretty Things by David Bowie - because of course Bowie is gonna be recommended for the UFO episode
