Red Eyes in the Tennessee Wild | EP: 376

from Tommy Cullum's Let's Get Freaky · host Tommy Cullum

In this compelling episode, we sit down with Rachael Speer, a dedicated researcher and resident of East Tennessee’s Appalachian foothills. Deeply immersed in the realm of high strangeness, Rachael has spent years investigating Bigfoot, Mothman, UFOs, and other paranormal phenomena, with a particular focus on regional hotspots such as Cades Cove and Brushy Mountain, as well as the unsettling cases of individuals who mysteriously vanish in America’s national parks.Rachael shares her most memorable personal encounters, including a chilling Sasquatch sighting in the remote Tennessee wilderness. She and her husband, an experienced outdoorsman, came face-to-face with a towering nine-foot-tall creature with glowing red eyes—an encounter that left a profound and lasting impact on them both. She also discusses her eerie experiences with shadow entities, baffling UFO sightings, and the heartbreaking stories of people who disappear without a trace under circumstances that defy conventional explanation.Rachael recounts a haunting family experience: her father’s possible Mothman encounter, which appeared as an ominous warning prior to a tragic event.Tennessee appears to be a magnet for high strangeness—from eyewitness accounts by multiple individuals to the legendary Moon-Eyed People of Appalachian lore—topics that challenge our fundamental understanding of reality.https://www.tiktok.com/@moonchildgoddess69?_r=1&_t=ZN-95kryfKFoXeGot a mind-blowing paranormal encounter, cryptid sighting, UFO experience, or any high-strangeness story that still gives you chills?

They were young, dumb, and full of it. What followed were comedy shows so explicit, “genitalia” was practically a term of endearment.Fast forward 5 dogs, 6 cats, and way too many weird inside jokes later, Sasha and Joe are no longer young or dumb—but they’re still brimming with you-know-what. Here, they’ve teamed up to bring you a podcast where they interview a guest who passionately defends something universally hated, misunderstood, forgotten, overlooked, Mandela-effected, canceled—you name it. The key? They LOVE it. From toupees... to B-movies... to aliens, psychedelics, and the occasional surprise character, Sasha and Joe are here to spread love to the world that birthed them (but maybe should’ve used protection).So come and get that love because no one else will give it to you like we do.Also, don’t forget to check out the Patreon Bonus version of the show:https://www.patreon.com/c/ShutUpILoveItP Explicit The New Marketing Show Trinity Web Media The New Marketing Show by Trinity Web Media discusses how we as marketers are problem solvers.
