Two Guys, What's Up?

So… we finally did it! Us Two Guys went to 30 East Drive, the home of the Black Monk (AKA THE MOST VIOLENT POLTERGEIST IN THE UK)! But we were too scared to go alone, so we headed in with James of the Fortean News Podcast, alongside his collaborator Matt from Confessions of a Ghost Boy, and Paul of Question Buggers. We had a solid mix of experience, curiosity… and slowly dwindling scepticism. From the moment we stepped inside, the place had a “feeling”, and throughout the night, those feelings turned into experiences; ALL of which is detailed in this very episode! By the end, we all walked out scared, excited, tired and a believer. So was what we experienced paranormal? Or was it just the setting and our minds playing tricks? We’ll let you be the judge, but for us? That wasn’t just another night out.Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merch Text our WhatsApp Two Guys Hotline on: 07395 840199All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Make sure you're already subscribed to Confessions of a Ghost Boy on Youtube to see the full film when its releasedMusic: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

Today, Iain takes us through the insane real event that was the Tunguska event! The catastrophic explosion that happened over Siberia 118 years ago. And this segment might have you saying “sure, that’s weird. But where is the paranormal!?” But don’t worry, it’s coming! Because in the end, we find out just why this explosion only left behind a whole lot of weirdness! Jordan then gives us a list of some of the weirdest, rudest, and downright creepiest messages from Vinted, between seller and buyer. From the perverted to the horrible, it’s a fair mix, and they all deliver (in more ways than one!).Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merch The Fortean News Podcast PatreonText our WhatsApp Two Guys Hotline on: 07395 840199All the linktree links for all your TGWU needsMusic: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

This week, Iain shares a bunch of weird reports from Spain that detail encounters with a variety of weird metallic entities that were witnessed from up close in people’s bedrooms, to random places like the side of the road!And then Jordan brings us a much-needed part 2 of a segment done years ago! “Are You Dating an Idiot?” From people who can’t understand the most simple workings of how day turns to night, to someone that can’t figure out gravity.

This week we find out just how (apparently) a financial titan could have (potentially) planned one of the greatest oceanic disasters of the 20th century and (maybe) in the process (supposedly) also sunk his competitors! So (they say) the central banking system of the US could (possibly) be created. And then Jordan brings us something inspired by Iain’s garage interaction last week because, as we all know, Jordan likes to rub it in and today he does not disappoint, as he brings us an entire segment on the phonetic alphabet. From people getting it wrong to the worst kinds that exist! If last week didn’t have Iain pulling his hair out, this week he’ll certainly have none left.

This week on Iain’s parents’ favourite podcast! Iain kicks things off with the retelling of not one, not two, but three bizarre battles that took place in the skies right above hundreds of witnesses’ heads over the span of half a decade that involved what appeared to be, for all intents and purposes, UFOs! And then Jordan has decided that being dark is keeping him awake at night, so this week he’s here to lighten things up a bit with some of the best rubbish pub jokes!

This week we dive into a few different types of hell! Iain starts with the quite literal version, with stories of people who have had the misfortune to experience near death, and ended up in some form of hellscape! Complete with cruel creatures, despair, and lakes of fire! But then Jordan talks about all the things we’d often overlook if hell came to us in the form of a zombie apocalypse! And let me tell ya, it seems like there’d probably be a number of things that were out to get us before the zombies even came into the equation! So take note and stock up because, these days, it wouldn’t surprise me if it was just around the corner. Bloody zombies. Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merch Text our WhatsApp Two Guys Hotline on: 07395 840199All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

#169 - Woeful War Crimes and Weird Wall FindsIt’s April Fools week! And what better way to celebrate than to switch up Iain and Jordan’s roles and it you’ve listened to March’s bonus episode over on our Patreon, then you’ll know that Jordan is currently in his DARK phase! And today is no different as he kicks things off with a guided tour through the history of the infamous Japanese Unit 731! A dark patch in history that saw human experiments, horrific acts and a complete disregard for human life all in the name of “scientific advancement”. Grim stuff. And then Iain follows up, tries to forget all the horrific atrocities committed, and brings a list of the weirdest things found in people’s walls! Esoteric charms, cash and bodies of all varieties show up. So we’ll back to the light-hearted stuff eventually, you just gotta ride this train with us.Happy April Fools!Don't forget to get your tickets to see us at Sci-Fi Scarborough on the 18th & 19th of April.

This week we kick off by talking about the Scarborough Sci-Fi Festival, taking place on the 18th-19th April, because we’ve been invited to do a panel! Two days, two one-hour talks with our good friends Paul Sinclair and James Koppert, with the chance to come and chat with all of us afterwards.

Today we start with a small conversation about sickness and Iain being haunted by a woman that now has outside verification by none other than Jordan.  Then the good stuff! Iain kicks things off by telling us all the heartwarming story of Jim the wonder dog! Possibly one of the world’s only, true psychic animals.**short break for Jordan’s new content preview here** Then back to the psychic dog! Could Jim really tell the future and read minds? Iain says yes! Jordan’s says “whatever, Iain.” But what do you think?Then Jordan does what he does best (his main passion of delivering TGWU segments; NOT dropping cards) and tells us 10 examples of those who lost their Job Seekers Plus benefits for the most outrageous, ridiculous, and inhumane ways. This really will have you shaking your head. Then you’ll remember about Jim and smile again.Text our WhatsApp Two Guys Hotline on: 07395 840199Support us Two Guys on Patreon for 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 we start by discussing Iain’s lack of sleep and the fact that Jordan’s dog is a skinwalker. But it soon descends into the GOOD STUFF! Iain starts by talking about one of the most famous stories that gave the Bermuda Triangle its horrible name - taking planes and the people that are flying them. It’s the story of how just after the World War II, six planes went missing, never to be seen again, cementing that three-sided bugger’s legacy. And then in an unprecedented turn of events, Jordan gives us a part two to last week’s episode! Remember? Need me to refresh your memory? OK. It’s the internet’s most unhinged paranormal encounters part 2! And this week we encounter upright spooky dogs, other ghosts that make you think it’s a dog, and choose your favourite Two Guys Hotline number jingle! Mine’s the metal version - signed, Iain.

Those things that stars, celebrities and artists (like Adele) demand are in their dressing rooms. But then the good stuff - Iain starts with guardians of the threshold; those that are placed in supernatural situations to stop you, or your ethereal self, going to those places where you ain’t supposed to go! What are they? Why can’t you go into the VIP area of the astral plain? No idea, but they’re there! Then Jordan gives us an extra paranormal fix by telling us some of the internet’s most unhinged paranormal encounters!

This week, it’s proof-time!Iain brings you the story about a young boy who claimed to have past-life memories. But, you see, the man this boy used to be was in the public eye! So just how did a four year-old know all the ins and outs of the life of a Hollywood talent agent? How did he prove it? All will be revealed before Jordan changes tack from his usual! Today he brings us a collection of entirely real studies and moral problems - conundrums designed to make you ponder. Some horrible; some philosophical; but all super interesting!

First off, we shut up talking about personal lives at 17:55 but we start off by talking about the horrors of waiting for a new microphone and the joys (and awkward incidents) of Jordan’s recent trip to Spain! so if you don't want to hear that, feel free to skip. We won't be offended.But then we kick off the good stuff! And it all starts in Canada, where Iain tells us about a family that was plagued by a series of poltergeist activity that came from an angry shape-shifting witch (allegedly).And then Jordan gives the very best of a recent trend that is “read a text and go about your day” - which is when you get a text from a loved one, you read it and then just kinda… smile a smile of WTF, and get on with your day! Solid stuff!Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merchAll the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

This week we are going full horror as Iain starts off by discussing zombies! Not the types that you find in horror movies, like those fast runners or even the ambling kind that are easy to escape, but the REAL kind. The kind that involves sorcerers, being drugged, slave labour, and having your humanity stripped away. And then we follow up with a stark reminder that we are all indeed aging. But maybe you hadn’t noticed? Well luckily Jordan is here to put that right, as he has a list from the Internet that details other people’s realisations that time is a-ticking!Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

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!

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?

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!

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?

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.)

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!

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!

Welcome! Today we’re going deep! (Take that however you please.)

Greetings, fellow Fifth Foot Race-rs! Today Iain brings us the tail of ANOTHER lost continent (I know, I know, it’s the last one, we swear!) but this time it’s the story of the egg-laying knowledge-seeders known as the Lemurians! The supposed ancient-er than Atlantis race that now hide out in mountains, waiting for us to ascend enough to give us all the answers we so sorely need. Jordan then fills us in on some stories of when people (even people who were suppose to be smart) were so adamant they were right, but in reality they were WRONG!

Today we’re covering a classic! But not in the way you’re expecting. Atlantis! Was there really an advanced landmass that sunk beneath the waves, damned by gods for its arrogance and greed? Or was it just Plato’s very fancy way of saying “don’t be a git”? For centuries people have been trying to prove it was real and everyone’s convinced they’ve cracked it. So grab your snorkel and your scepticism, because we’re swimming into one of the deepest mysteries on Earth.Jordan then does what he does best - makes Iain look stupid. And today, he’s doing it in the form of a quiz! But not just any quiz, it’s a ten-question bonanza, all starting with the simple question: “What came first?” From cookies to crosswords, we guarantee you’ve never heard these before. So play along, shout at your phone, and make sure you let us know how you did against the mediocre brain of Iain.Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merch  All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs  Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

Here on this podcast, we’ve said it before, and today we’re saying it again: sometimes people go missing. This time, we’re looking specifically at the unfortunate people who’ve been unlucky enough to experience the Missing 411 phenomenon! From those who disappeared and returned with strange stories, to those who vanished and never came back.And then Jordan brings us a list of people who got so angry that their brains just stopped working, leading them to blurt out the daftest sentences, completely defusing the situation and making themselves look just a little bit silly in the process.Grab your tickets here for our upcoming live show!Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needs Music: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

Well, summer is sadly officially over - but that doesn’t mean the party has to stop! Here at TGWU headquarters, we believe the party should never end so to help us ease into autumn, we’ve re-invited our pal James, host of The Fortean News Podcast, to bring us some creepiness, both local and personal! But that’s not all; Iain has a selection of cursed objects for us to sink our teeth into, and Jordan rounds things off with a paranormal quiz for James (and Iain) called “Paranormal or Poppycock?”. So put your knowledge to the test against him, and let us know your score before you also check out James’ show. Here’s to a spooky autumn!Get your tickets here to come see our VERY FIRST LIVE SHOW as we get to chat so some of the most prominent names in the local paranormal field.

This week we’re tackling one of the internet’s favourite mysteries. Is Elvis Presley still alive? Did he really NOT die in 1977, but instead hang up the jumpsuit, grab a Bible, and re-emerge as Pastor Bob Joyce? The evidence is… interesting, but we’ll let you make up your own suspicious mind.Meanwhile, Jordan brings us a much more serious investigation—into the absolute art form that is the internet’s best typos. From accidentally calling friends horrible names to sentences that sound like they were written by a confused fridge, we’ll be celebrating the keyboard clangers that made internet history.So whether you’re wondering if Elvis is hiding in the choir stalls, or just after some catastrophic spelling, we’ve got you covered. One part conspiracy, one part comedy of errors, all parts nonsense.Get your tickets here to come see our VERY FIRST LIVE SHOW as we get to chat so some of the most prominent names in the local paranormal field.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.

Hello! What a glorious day to see you! Today, Iain kicks us off with a good old-fashioned alien contactee story packed with love, confusion, and all the alien trickery you’d expect from the buggers. Then Jordan brings us a round of mistranslated gems; on the menu today? Well… menus! All those delicious items that have been hilariously butchered with English translation errors. It’s the kind where you’d order some food just to find out what on Earth it is you’d get! And when you do, let us know, will ya?

Welcome, welcome! Whether you’re here for the first time, the 139th time, or somewhere in between, this week you’ve got yourself a good one. Today’s episode is stacked! We clear up a few things we’ve talked about before, and we’ve got an interview with a very special guest you’ll definitely want to stick around for.First up, Iain’s bringing us a story of a so-called “monster” that stalked the streets of 18th-century London. Was it a creature of nightmares… or just a truly horrible human? Either way, it was a horrible time and women lived in fear!Then Jordan’s back on peak Jordan form with some brilliantly mistranslated signs. If you remember “various and confused pizzas,” this is part two, only bigger, better, and even crazier. (And yes, the pictures are up on YouTube and Spotify if you’re listening there.)And to round things off—we’ve got a list. But not just any list. A while ago Jordan asked Iain to get a certain someone to write a little bit on the little things their partner does that drive them mad. There is a list! but instead of us reading it out, that certain someone has stepped out of the shadows to deliver it themselves directly to Iain’s face.It’s a packed one today, folks!

This week we’re diving into two kinds of monsters; one that (apparently) stalked a North London cemetery, and another that lurks in the fine print of every program you’ve ever absent-mindedly clicked “I agree” on in order to use it.First, Iain takes us deep into the eerie legend of the Highgate Vampire: sightings, séances, duelling occultists, and a media frenzy that turned a graveyard into ground zero for Britain’s creepiest supernatural soap opera! Then Jordan shines some light on some of the weirdest, funniest, and downright sinister things hidden in common user agreements. From clauses about souls to surreal rules no one noticed before, clicking just to get to your juicy new piece of software. Vampires, contracts, and questionable decisions? Sounds about right.

It’s the middle of summer and we’re all feeling the heat, so grab a cocktail and sit back as we take a break from the paranormal and internet oddities, to invite regular-guest Paul (Moonback) on the show for a game of “Would You Rather?”Full of laughs, revelations, and a damn good time had by all!

Welcome back! It’s Monday and we’ve got the goods! Iain kicks us off with some (reportedly) true stories of the technology we use every day, recording evidence that we’re not alone in this world! From alien abductions, Alexa recording things, and smart watches - they record it tall! And then Jordan reminds us that the paranormal isn’t the only thing we need to worry about, as he gives us a list of things that people have said they still can’t do but feel like they should be able to! Like…“I’m 37, can’t make my wife smile” - Iain.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 Chillpeach - In Dreamland: https://youtu.be/VrxL2iouKLk Hosted on Acast.

This week, Iain takes us deep into the shadowy streets of old Toronto to uncover the story of the Cabbagetown Monster! A bizarre figure said to have inhabited the sewers in the 1970s. Was it a misidentified cryptid; a trickster spirit; or something a little more ordinary?Then Jordan shifts tones, but keeps the chaos, with a collection of things that people do to their partners to purposefully infuriate them! Including a fair few of our own revelations, that means we’re not the perfect husbands we thought we were.Oh, and watch out for those pesky ads!  Support us Two Guys on Patreon for monthly bonus episodes and merch All the linktree links for all your TGWU needsMusic: https://www.purple-planet.com  Hosted on Acast.

This week, Iain tells us about the story of Jerry Wills! The man who claims to have been healed by alien beings (or something similar, but let’s be real - it’s definitely aliens) and guided by intuitive downloads, along with a little bit on of onboard power, to heal the sick! We discuss his strangest claims, the stories of miraculous recoveries, and ask the big question - is Derren Brown an alien? Then it’s over to Jordan, who, in light of his wedding aniversary! (Happy anniversary, Jordan 👏 ) brings us something a little more earthbound but no less bizarre: a chaotic list of the most unhinged things wedding guests have ever witnessed. From a lack of furniture, to a story from his very own wedding! Nobody’s walking down the aisle unscathed today - but don’t worry, the healing is at 5pm in the marquee. Then cake.

Disappearances are unfortunately a sad reality. People go missing and we’re lucky to have people who are trained in looking for those lost loved ones. But what about when the police say nu-uh? What about when your entire family goes missing because the aliens did it, and there’s no one to help you? Well, that is today’s mystery as Iain tells us the story of Mrs. Beardtoes, and her encounter with a family-jabbing bunch of aliens!And then, Jordan turns to the nicer side of psychology as he tells us some interesting and thought-provoking experiments tried through the years. From how dumb babies are (not our words), to how mice can be sympathetic! I think we can all learn a thing or two, as Jordan gives us all a lot to think about.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  Catacombs by Moonback Music Hosted on Acast.

Oh hello, it’s a little early in the morning to be waking up, isn’t it? Oh, and what’s that outside your bedroom window? A sweet little nocturnal critter? Or is it an alien grey using its mind tricks to make you misremember your own abduction!? Definitely the latter - and don’t worry - Iain has all the facts on SCREEN MEMORIES! The phenomenon when paranormal creatures dress up as Earth creatures to mess with your head! And then Jordan is very hopeful that you’ve got some writing utensils handy! Because today, he’s got life hacks! Yes, he’s done them before; but at least one of them may well save your life! So pay attention, or don’t, but do write them down as this week it’s all about keeping yourself safe.
