  1. 15: Don't Come to the Circus and Get Mad When You See Clowns

    Shh…do you hear that? That maniacal cackling? Don’t worry, it’s not a ghost. It’s just Em and The Other One Zack, and they’re way too dang excited because it’s Halloween! Well, maybe not anymore. You’ll be hearing this once everyone’s already finished trick or treating and carving pumpkins and...

  2. 14: Oops, All Snakes!

    Hello there! You’re just in time, the show will be starting soon. Do you want any refreshments? Sparkling water? Reese’s Take 5 bar? Just let us know, there’s plenty to go around! This week, Em branches out into the Midwest to talk about a story that has been stuck in their head for months now…

  3. 13: "It's hard to live in the past when your foot's on the gas." -Zack 2022

    Hey there! Wow, it's been ages! Look how big you've gotten! They grow up so fast, don't they? Aww. Lil' babies. So it's been like 6 months and a lot has changed, but our love for weird history has only grown stronger! We are excited to tell each other stories again at long last, and we hope you…

  4. Episode 12: The Evil Dead Cabin and Sequoyah

    Hi guys! Long time no see! Did you do something different with your hair? Whatever it is, it’s working. We’ve missed you, and we hope you’ve missed us too. We decided to take the month of January off, but we’re back and ready to party! Also, for no reason in particular, the song Taps (y'know, the...

  5. Episode 11: The Holiday Special

    Ho ho howdy there folks! Welcome to our holiday extravaganza! We hope whatever you celebrate you’ve had a warm and wonderful time this winter. The holidays can be stressful, but look at you, you made it another year! We’re so glad you’re joining us today and we hope you’re excited too. Just a…

  6. Episode 10: Centralia and The White Bluff Screamer

    Welcome back everyone! Forgive us if the intro is a bit scattered this week (really, when are they not) but Em was forced to keep as much of the context in as possible so we could all bask in the glory of Zack’s Celine Dion impression and like ten minutes of discussion of the third Property...

  7. Episode 9: The Long Overdue Halloween Special

    Trick or treat! Yeah, it's the middle of November, but you still have some candy for us right? No? Wow. We put so much effort into our boyband inspired costumes, and for what? Well, that's okay. Even if you don't have any for us, we sure do have a treat for you! This week is our long overdue (and...

  8. Episode 8: The Devil's Tramping Ground and The Bell Witch

    Well folks, it finally happened. Em made an oopsie and so we talked for almost 20 minutes before we realized that only one mic was recording. We were also recording late for the first time ever, so bear with us, ‘cause we were a little out of it. We still had fun though, and we’re really on our...

  9. Episode 7: Tommy Bartlett's Water Circus and Urban Legends of the South

    Hello everyone, thank you for coming. We’ve been waiting for you. Please step inside our office. Now take a good look around. Notice anything? Yeah, it’s a mess, but nevermind that. Instead, pay attention to how new and exciting it is! New to us, anyway, and probably haunted. But here we are, and...

  10. Episode 6: The Goat Man and Bigfoot

    Hello hello! Welcome back to the Abandonment Issues, where this week things are quite a bit more lighthearted than the last! It may not seem like it after the email Em reads in the intro, but let's just say that, well, it’s not likely that it’s a true story. Unless it is, in which case, sorry to...

  11. Episode 5: Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary and Bloody Harlan

    Well gang, this is a weird one. If you’re concerned by the crunchy Wendy Williams audio in the beginning, we’re sorry (well, Em is sorry) but we just talked about her too much afterward to figure out how to edit around it. Here’s the link if you were just as confused as Em was:...

  12. Episode 4: The Local Bermuda Triangle and The Cape Romano Dome House

    Welcome back y’all! How’s everyone doing this week? Any issues? We have tons. Not to toot our own horns too much, but in Em’s opinion, this is our best episode thus far. It also marks the last of the episodes that we recorded before actually uploaded anything, so if it sounds like anything we...

  13. Episode 3: Sinkholes and The Kirkland Bushwhackers

    Hi besties! Sorry we’re late! It feels appropriate that this episode goes up this week. Back in May-June-ish when it was recorded, we were very much on the struggle bus, and this week was no different. Thank goodness for the magic of editing software! In this week’s issue, Em digs deep into the...

  14. Episode 2: Thelma Melton and The Ghosts of ETSU

    Welcome back! Hey, do you guys remember the hit song "Party Rock Anthem" by uncle-nephew duo LMFAO? That was a great track right? We think so too. Or at least, Em really does. Lets all sit back and talk about it and the many other cultural touchstones of the year 2011 for entirely too long. It is...

  15. Episode 1: The Tellico Round House and Mason Evans

    Note: due to issues with the audio on our first publication, we have reuploaded the first episode. Hello, and welcome to the flagship episode of The Abandonment Issues, a podcast about the past, the paranormal, and the just plain perplexing! We are so glad you could join us. This is a project…
