Two Guys, What's Up?

Welcome to a rather reminiscent episode! I guess you could call this Episode 82 Pt.2 - for we feature featured these topics all those years ago. And that means that today you’re getting another story of some aliens that were buried in our sweet soil, and a list of things that were taught to us in school that were later disproven in our lifetime! So expect crashed saucers and BIG FOOD getting involved in teaching the next generation. All this and more on this week’s episode!

This week we’re getting creepy and more pointless than usual! Iain starts by telling us about some of the creepier number stations out there, the things that were supposedly created to give coded messages to spies, but if that was their purpose, why are the same ones that played during the Cold War still around today? Could they actually be meant for the ears of something more… alien?Jordan then gives us some of the most useless and pointless inventions that have been thought up, created, mass-produced, and sold! Yes, SOLD! So if you’ve ever needed crisp dust protection or a pet that needs zero effort to look after, then listen up because this might just be the segment for you!Support us Two Guys on Patreon for longer weekly episodes, monthly bonus episodes and merchAll the linktree links for all your TGWU needsMusic: https://www.purple-planet.com Number Station Library Hosted on Acast.

Today we’re starting off in Yorkshire, where we meet a guy who was out for a delightful little walk around the moors. Typically tranquil, but for him, it was a winter walk like no other! For he was unlucky enough to have met an alien (rather him than me!) and he brought home PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE! Jordan then poses us a question; one you may have never thought about before: what’s normal at 3pm but terrifying at 3am!? I know, I know, hard hitting. But fear not. You do not have to think, for Jordan has a good number of examples for us. Let us know if you agree! And let us know what comes to mind when you’re posed with this deep question.Support us Two Guys on Patreon for longer weekly episodes, monthly bonus episodes and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

This week Iain tells us the story of a haunting! The kind that’s feels left over from some kind of horrors past. But don’t let the name fool you; there are no booties involved! (I know, I was angry too.)Jordan then tells us some of the most useless things ever sold on eBay! Because who doesn’t need Justin Timberlake’s half-eaten French toast?!All kinds of madness today!

Welcome to a New Years special! This week Iain gives us some new years lore. All that fun stuff you celebrate on December 31st? Born of protection rituals from the fae! Plus some weird things that us humans use to believe; stuff that the new year could bring in if you weren’t careful. Main takeaway? Stay away from mirrors. Then Jordan looks back on the year and tells us about the internet’s most embarrassing memories. But it soon turns into Iain divulging all the embarrassing situations he’s gotten himself into!

So, nothing short of spectacular. But what else would you expect for the big day? Enjoy! And merry Christmas, happy holidays and, whatever you’re celebrating, we hope you have a fantastic day!

This week we’re bringing the festive spirit with a bizarre sting of aerial phenomena. Sounds and sightings that all started on Christmas Day of 1964. What was it? Well, they just called it a “thing” - Jordan on the other hand? He called it everything else under the sun!And then Jordan brings us some shower thoughts — but not the kind you’d expect! These ones are more of the paranormal kind. The kind that keep you awake because they make you think and they’re spooky as hell!

Today we’re on a double-dose of the weird. Iain kicks things off with some real, reportedly true accounts of people who’ve actually seen the Grim Reaper. But is he a genuine entity out there doing the rounds, or did we humans make him up!? Did we just will him into existence, accidentally manifesting a spooky cloaked skeleton who pops by when your time’s up?Then Jordan gives us a trip down a delightful little rabbit hole, all about people who can supposedly smell illnesses. Apparently, Iain’s one of them! But is this a real thing? Can some people genuinely sniff out disease? Can you do it? Come give me a sniff will ya?

Welcome to a special episode! You read that title correctly; following on from the October live show, we’ve got Paul back for a full 1-on-1 (well… 2-on-1) interview. He tried to get away, but Iain’s legs were longer.

Today we’re finishing up Iain’s eight-part series of intertwined mystical madness by heading to another spooky mountain! Expect similar vibes but totally different stories from the BENNINGTON TRIANGLE! Then Jordan tells us some cool things people have done to automate their life! (And a really helpful shortcut including three L’s - always helpful for when you need a laughing face emoji.) But he tells us about NFC tags, iPhone shortcuts and all the ways people have made their lives easier.Support us Two Guys on Patreon for longer weekly episodes, monthly bonus episodes and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

Today we’re starting at the most famous mountain in mysticism: Mount Shasta! The Californian mountain that’s apparently part spiritual vortex, part alien airport, and part interdimensional Wi-Fi hotspot. Over the years, this snow-capped peak has hosted everything from Lemurians to UFOs, among much, much more…Then Jordan gives us a much-welcomed public service announcement on how to NOT fall victim to common scams. The ones designed to pull at your heartstrings, make you think you’re getting a bargain, and drain your bank account all the while! But fear not! Jordan has all the secret details on how to avoid falling for them, and it’s all in this week’s episode.Support us Two Guys on Patreon for longer weekly episodes, monthly bonus episodes and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

Today we’ve got two stories at opposite ends of the spectrum; the first of a guy who won’t die, and five others who reveal their biggest secrets as they reach their final moments!Iain first tells of the legend of Count Saint Germain, the mysterious 18th-century figure who baffled Europe by never seeming to age, claiming he’d mastered every skill under the sun while performing tricks and wowing royalty. Was he a time traveller? An ascended master? Or just the world’s most committed liar!?Meanwhile, Jordan takes us on a tour of some horrible purportedly true deathbed confessions. From people admitting to life-shattering secrets they’d held onto all their lives, to one bloke who swore he’d been the real D. B. Cooper! And it’s all coming at you (get ready; click play when I say this)… noooooooow!Support us Two Guys on Patreon for longer weekly episodes, monthly bonus episodes and merch  All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

Welcome back! Today, we’re talking about people who like to do… not very much. But while the person that Iain tells us about was asleep, he use to do things like hand out cures and predict the future! It’s the story of Edgar Casey, aka the Sleeping Prophet! Was he really spouting sleep truths? Or was he just dream-speaking a load of nonsense? You decide! And then Jordan gives us the internet’s most lazy people and their worst admissions. It’s a compilation of those who, I’m sure, also like to sleep, but did not do things like tell the future. They did things like break up with their partners because they couldn’t be bothered washing or texting daily. Quite the contrast!

Today we’re finishing up in North Yorkshire, in the quaint village of Hutton-le-Hole. Don’t let the name fool you—this place may or may not have been home to tales of ghosts, UFOs, fairy tricks, and all manner of high strangeness. It’s a village where the weird and wonderful come out to play. And it’s just in time if you ask me. Happy Halloween!

Today we’re going back to old-timey Scotland for the bizarre case of the Glenluce Poltergeist. Stones thrown, food spoiled, it was a mug graveyard! And unseen hands tearing through a poor tailor’s home. Was this one of Britain’s earliest documented hauntings? Seems so.Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merchAll the linktree links for all your TGWU needsMusic: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

Today’s Halloween countdown tale takes us to early 1800s Tennessee, where the Bell family was tormented by an invisible force that scratched, shouted, and swore it would kill the head of the household.

Welcome back! One day closer to Halloween and another bite size bit of creepy. Today we’re heading to the small town of Van Meter, Iowa. For one terrifying week, townsfolk swore they were being stalked by a winged creature with a glowing horn on its head. Was it a monster? If not, what exactly did they shoot at!?Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merchAll the linktree links for all your TGWU needsMusic: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.
