  • The Trout Lake Monster and More
    Jan 30 2025
    On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys kick things off by discussing Muay Thai and Cam's recent trip to Colorado—one that, surprisingly, did not include snow. Then, strange encounters unfold: A South Texas mobile home park resident witnesses shimmering humanoid figures engaged in an eerie, silent exchange. Who—or what—were they? Meanwhile, a 911 dispatcher receives a chilling phantom call from a woman who has already passed away. In Kentucky, an angry gnome manifests in the woods, causing a young girl to faint, while a persistent witness reports multiple sightings of the legendary Trout Lake Monster.

    Ontario, Canada, is known for its stunning lakes and rivers. Still, it also harbors tales of mysterious lake creatures—none more intriguing than the Trout Lake Monster. This elusive, serpent-like entity has been part of Native folklore for generations. In 2010, a bizarre 15-foot carcass with fur and a horned, gargoyle-like head surfaced, fueling speculation. Some hailed it as hard evidence of the creature's existence. Still, scientists identified it as a decomposing giant otter—yet before further study could be conducted, the corpse mysteriously disappeared. Was it a hoax or proof of an ancient cryptid? Next, a Michigan couple has two eerie encounters with a human-faced feline resembling the legendary Jinmenken—both on Halloween night. A flying humanoid is spotted elsewhere, and Bigfoot's handprints are discovered.

  • No Ordinary Man
    Jan 17 2025
    On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, Kyle is flying solo in Skelekin Studios as Cam spends the week with his family in Colorado. Recently, Kyle and his son Luke checked out the new Wolfman movie, which tells the chilling story of a family at a remote farmhouse under siege by an unseen predator. As the night unfolds, the father undergoes a terrifying transformation into something utterly unrecognizable. While it takes a fresh approach to the classic werewolf genre, the film still delivers an enjoyable experience.

    Later, Kyle dives into some intriguing listener stories. The first comes from someone who believes their recently deceased grandmother tried to contact them through the telephone. The second tale involves a chilling encounter with a phantom light, rumored to belong to the ghost of a motorcyclist. After the break, Kyle shares even more strange and fascinating encounters.

  • Tree People and More
    Jan 10 2025
    In this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the hosts kick off the new year with personal updates, including Cam’s family bouncing back from illness and the rare sight of winter snowfall in Texas. A wave of nostalgia follows as they reminisce about childhood favorites like Jolt cola and giant Pixie Stix.

    After the casual banter, the episode takes a mysterious turn. The hosts delve into eerie encounters, beginning with the enigmatic Tree People of the Shenandoah Valley. This historically rich region, stretching 140 miles through northern Virginia, is nestled between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Alleghenies. Once the edge of the American frontier and later a pivotal Civil War battleground, the Shenandoah Valley’s past echoes through its preserved landmarks, unique architecture, and vibrant communities.

    The intrigue doesn’t stop there. The episode also uncovers chilling stories, including a Not Deer sighting in Chicago, a Skinwalker encounter in Arizona, a possible botched alien abduction, a haunted house built on protected faerie land, and the unsettling discovery of a green metal door standing alone in the middle of the woods. Was it merely an abandoned structure, or could it have been a portal to another dimension?

Finally found something worth listening to

Whether you believe in this kind of stuff or just interested or just trying to expand your perspective, these guys are great To listen to they have helped me Get through my work days lately and just Allow my mind to wonder into all kinds of rooms of possibility in fun in spokaness Let alone there's many topics in here. Which are great to bring up to friends for a conversation or a fun chat, keep it up Guys I love what you do. I haven't been through all your episodes yet. But I would love to hear more conspiracy type stuff, such as the fact that satellites don't exist. They're more like sataloons. Hence, the reason NASA is the number one consumer of helium in the world. Maybe bring up the firmament. I know you're probably not trying to talk about flatterest type stuff a lot. But that stuff goes hand-in-hand with meteorite stories. And such which wouldn't be able to exist if the fir a moment did either way? Hopefully, I can call you guys and leave a story Someday, I've got a couple. Excuse all the funky punctuation and capitals. I used to talk to text for this and it was choppy. Take care, gentlemen and God bless.

Best Podcast for the Unexplained

I’ve listened to every episode that’s not on their elite format and I must say these two guys are the best at explaining things without promoting their own opinions as facts.

They have open minds and don’t just jump to explain weird things as “paranormal”. From ancient history to the current rash of winged Humanoids around Chicago these guys cover it all.

Been a fan from the beginning.

The guys are great because they are so down to Earth. Every episode is like 2 friends from high school coming over and sitting around shooting the bull.
