Nothing worse than a photobomb. There you are minding your own business, taking a picture of your lovely daughter and next thing you know some idiot time traveler / astronaut / inter-dimensional being drops his/her/its mug into your frame. And while we’ve all been through it, there’s a famous version we’re talking about this week - The Solway Firth Spaceman. Where did the other figure come from? Could this be a real, true documentation of a close encounter? How much is free film for a year actua...

We promise to do the dirty work for you here at H51, and sometimes it is really dirty... like in BUGS. That's right, it's insect week in the Hysteria kitchen and we have 3 flavors of cricket on the menu - Salt and Vinegar, Bacon and Cheese, and Sour Cream and Onion. How do they taste? Where did we get them? Why are we this dumb? All that is next on the podcast that doesn't usually eat insects, but when we do we like them covered in weird flavor dust - Hysteria 51.

This week we’re taking a breath. After the murder of George Floyd and ensuing justified protests…and military intervention in said protests – we couldn’t let the moment pass without saying something. We’re 2 white guys in middle America. We are literally the definition of white privilege. So, we’re not going to pretend to understand what its like to walk around black in this country. But, that doesn’t mean we don’t empathize and see the need for radical reform. The inhumane police brutality perp...

Our friend Rob Kristoffersen of the Our Strange Skies podcast was gracious enough to invite Brent to be a part of his live stream recently. The Blue Ribbon Panel had the guys discuss some of the most obscure UFO cases they've ever come across and dissect them in all their strange and ridiculous goodness! Participants were Ryan Sprague of Somewhere in the Skies podcast, Jason McClellan of Unknown: A UFO Podcast, Chris Cogswell of the Mad Scientist podcast, and of course our very own Brent Hand. F...

Remember that time we stormed Area 51 and Conspiracy Bot somehow got us involved in a Reptilian scheme to take over the world? (episode 155 for those of you playing at home) This is like that…only different…with more Hollow Earth…and Kyle…and Zork? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ You better just listen for yourself. Written by Michael Paul Gonzalez ( MichaelPaulGonzalez.com / @monkeywright ) In association with Radio Lost Angeles and ForthHand Productions Produced by Michael Paul Gonzalez and Brent Hand Starring: Bre...

Look, we know Florida gets a bad rap. You have one bath salt zombie and all of a sudden, you're the crazy state. And while tales of alligators on meth are great fodder for the local news outlets, it seems some groups a little farther from home have taken a shining to the…Sunshine State. One specific town there to be specific - Gulf Breeze, Florida. In the late 80's and early 90's, Gulf Breeze was a magnet for UFO sightings and alleged abductions. But why was so much of this activity centered aro...

In our continuing bonus series on un-refrigerated meats, this week we're tackling Underwood's Deviled Ham Spread. You've had a deviled egg right? It's like that..only ham…and lots of nitrites…and comes in a can. Hungry yet? To help us untangle this debacle we're joined by our better halves. No, not C-Bot and Kyle, but our wives Producer Lisa and (the OG producer) Stacy join to ask the tough questions. Can canned meat be too salty? Was this the first brand with a devil on the logo? Will Stacy eve...

Did you know the world is going to end in 100 seconds? Well, sort of. Welcome to the Doomsday Clock - a measurement on how close mankind is to destroying itself. And while it might sound like the super weapon used by the bad guy in a surprisingly educational James Bond movie, it's actually a science backed vehicle for educating the world on how close The Bulletin of Atomic Scientists believes we are to wiping ourselves off the face of the planet. Between climate change, nuclear proliferation, di...

In the years leading up to WW2, scientists from all over the world speculated about the potential for a new type of weapon – one that harnessed the power of the atom. And while the Americans, Brits, and Canadians were busy building the largest secret project in the history of secret projects (The Manhattan Project)...the Soviets had a different strategy: just steal it. So, as WW2 rages on, the US and USSR are still frenemies. But, under the surface the Cold War has begun. Enter the Atomic Spies....

Hey losers, Conspiracy Bot here. This week Brent and John fire up the way back machine for a CAFEteria 51 trip down memory lane. It's Retro Snacks, the episode they did on the original run of Rad or Fad. I hope you hate it!

It’s 1986 and you’re haulin’ massive amounts of French hooch back to Japan. Admittedly it would tempting to get ‘high on your own supply’, but flying a 747 while drunk is frowned upon. Yet, by the end of the flight, some might assume you were. Why? Well, you saw 3 big ol’ UFOs over eastern Alaska. We’re talking gravity defying, Tic Tac level UFOs. And that’s only the beginning of the story of the Japan Airlines Flight 1628 Incident. What did the pilots really see? Is it possible for one pilot to...

Agenda 21 - What is it? Some new video game where you’re an assassin who gets double crossed by the very organization you work for? Or, perhaps it’s a coming of age teen comedy, all about a profane, yet lovable group of high schoolers on a quest to score beer for the BIG party. Or MAYBE it’s a multinational, multilateral, non-binding, action plan from the United Nations! If you guessed C you’re right (though we kinda wish it was A or B)! BUT, to some, it also could be a ‘wolf-in-sheep’s clothing...

One mysterious night in the early 20th century all pendulum clocks stopped at the exact same moment in Paris, France. At that same moment, 1000's of Parisians experienced dizziness, nausea, and more. The strangest thing about the whole thing? The story didn’t appear in full until a 2019 episode of Top 10 Secrets and Mysteries (Netflix’s Ancient Aliens, but more non-E.T. stuff). Did something truly extraordinary happen that night in Paris, or does Netflix have an extraordinarily bad show on their...

Do you love beer? Sure you do. But do you love the weird, gooky leftover stuff from brewing the beer? If you're from Australia, you bet your slab you do! Mixed with some salt and spices that gook turns into the Australian (treasure?) VEGEMITE - and this week we sit down for a taste. What do you eat it on? How much is too much? WHY THE HECK DO THESE NUTRITIONAL LABELS USE THE METRIC SYSTEM (we know). Plus, Producer Lisa joins the party to talk bouillon, John talks fish eggs, and Brent ruins anoth...

Nation it's a fun one this week as JP Doyal stops by to discuss his paranormal documentary Mad House. We talk dead merkin dealers, demons named Seven, summoning rituals, mullets, phantom water drops, and oh so much more. That's this week on the podcast that has never filmed a documentary, but has a robot one will inevitable be made about - Hysteria 51 And make sure to check out JP at the following: Not Today Satan Podcast http://forthhand.com/not-today-satan/ Mad House: A Paranormal Documentary ...

In our inaugural episode of "CAFEteria 51" (which is really just a ramble-cast where we eat weird food and complain a lot), we examine the food that put the "hot dog flavored water" in Limp Bizkit's...well you get the idea. We're eating Vienna Sausages! What are they made of (you don't want to know) Are they healthy (you don't want to know)? Does adding Brie and a toast-point somehow improve the experience (whether you want to know or not, you'll find out)? All of that and more on the podcast th...

Eduard Albert Meier , commonly nicknamed " Billy " is the founder of a UFO religion called the "Freie Interessengemeinschaft für Grenz- und Geisteswissenschaften und Ufologiestudien" (Free Community of Interests for the Border and Spiritual Sciences and Ufological Studies) and alleged contactee whose UFO photographs are claimed to show alien spacecraft.” AND THAT’S JUST THE FIRST SENTENCE OF WIKIPEDIA. Needless to say we have fun with this one. Plus, Joe Peck is somehow back again, Kyle has deve...

As Lisa and Brent are under mandatory state wide quarantine they fix themselves some drinks and try to make the best of the situation. Who do we know that have the virus? How are we passing the time?

What do you do when there’s a global pandemic? RECYCLE OLD MATERIAL! OK, we kid, but in this special release we’re giving you an oldy, but a goody – our 9th episode – “Prepping for the Apocalypse”. But have no fear, you get a good 20 minutes of meaty John and Brent goodness up front talking about the coronavirus, John’s positive test (you’ll have to listen to know what that means), and the likely cause of all this (it involves C-Bot). Then we launch into the episode dating all the way back to a ...

This week Brent sits down with Cheryl Costa to talk all thing UFO related and then some! Cheryl is a native and resident of upstate New York who saw her first UFO at age 12. A military veteran, she’s a retired information security professional from the aerospace Industry. She’s been a speaker at the International UFO Congress and at the MUFON Symposium. Cheryl also wrote the UFO column “New York Skies” for Syracuse New Times. Besides being a journalist, she’s also a published playwright. She hol...

It's a special episode of Hysteria 51 this week as Brent welcomes David Flora of Blurry Photos and Derek Hayes of Monsters Among Us Podcast to talk about all the crazy and weird legends that surround the Anza-Borrego State Park in California . It's so crazy that they call it The Borrego Triangle! From the Borrego Sandman to Aliens. Spook Lights to Skinwalkers. UFOs, ghosts and everything in between, Borrego has it all. They hope to film a documentary highlighting all these strange phenomenon, an...
