Boos and Banter

For one night, and one night only… Nicole is in the house! She recaps her recent adventures in West Virginia and her.. poltergeist? Also please let her know that she has to watch the Twilight Saga before she goes to Washington.Then, we get into the main portion of this weeks episode.. Did Lizzie Borden truly get away with muder? I mean murder?Part 2 of our Powerpoint Night and this time Macy brings her presentation to the group. Settle in and let us know if you think she really did it!

A cursed family. A haunted legacy. And somehow… pirates. Also, its confirmed, Macy needs glasses.Before we unravel the dark and tragic story of the Lemp family, we take several completely necessary detours…Debating if we should open a medieval dinner show in STL, Macy’s wish for a Titanic museum journey, proving once and for all that we were right (Macy truly cannot see), and asking the hard-hitting question: are Canadians religious?Also, we’ve learned something important about St. Louis… we are, collectively, “fuckin ass.”Once we (barely) regain focus, we dive into the eerie history of the Lemp family—one of St. Louis’ most infamous dynasties, marked by success, tragedy, and a string of deaths that many believe point to something far more sinister.Is it coincidence… or a curse?Part 1 of our powerpoint night and evidence number like 100 that Kristen can’t read. 

We made it to 50 episodes, and somehow this is what we chose to do with it. Naturally, we start by ranking the hottest U.S. presidents. As one does.Then we pivot to TikTok creator Kyle Anthony and his allegedly haunted house. Is it truly paranormal, or just paranormal content? We investigate… skeptically.And yes, there are an aggressive number of burps throughout this episode. We’re not proud, but we’re also not editing them out.So pour yourself something carbonated, lower your expectations, and join us for Paranormal & Digestive Activity, our most historic (and gassy) episode yet.

Do you remember the big headphones with the hearing test, the pink swish drink, and speed reading in the hallway (nope, just Kristen)? Well, congratulations! You were a part of a government experiment! … maybe.This week, we dive into a TikTok conspiracy about the GATE program and what they were REALLY testing for.See you in Toilet World.

This week we start with a very serious question: when we die and become ghosts, are we contractually obligated to wear a flowing white nightgown… or do we get outfit options in the afterlife?Then we crinkle up our finest aluminum accessories and dive into some of the internet’s most unhinged identity-swap theories — think royal reincarnations, suspicious celebrity replacements, and skin suits.Are we experts? No. Are we spiraling anyway? Absolutely.Grab your tin foil and join us while we question reality, royalty, and whether anyone is actually who they say they are.

Season 3 is here!We’re back, we’re unhinged, and we’re asking the hard questions: Have you seen the new season of Bridgerton? Just kidding. But first, we briefly rebrand the show to the kid-friendly Boobs and Buttholes and hand out our official supernatural superlatives.Then we get into it. A new haunted location in Missouri has everyone buzzing… but is it truly paranormal… or just para-promo? We’re talking ghost stories, marketing tactics, and the fine line between spirits and sponsorships.It’s also our first episode in this new chapter without Nicole, and while things feel a little different, the chaos very much remains.Welcome back to Season 3. Let the hauntings (and the hot takes) begin.

It’s the season finale, the end of the year, and … Nicole’s farewell tour.We’re reminiscing on our favorite AND cursed Boos and Banter moments, exposing our Spotify Wrapped stats, and opening up an empty seat for anyone bold enough to join the chaos.From sleepover games and zodiac red flags to ghost hunts that never happen and opinions that shouldn’t be trusted—thank you for surviving this season with us. We’ll be back soon! 👀

Mercury’s in Gatorade, and the Boos are aloof. This week, we break down stereotypical zodiac signs, our Big Three, and the red flags the stars assigned us. We even dive into our Mayan signs, straight from the trusted horoscope.com.Oh, AND we put out an official call to bbno$ to join us on a ghost hunt.bbno$, if you’re reading this… pack your flashlight and see you soon.

Welcome to Midnight Madness & Monster-in-Laws, where the real horror isn’t haunted houses—it’s Black Friday crowds, Thanksgiving arguments, and in-laws who strike fear into your spirit. The Boos reflect on wild Black Friday memories, unforgettable Thanksgiving feuds, and the in-laws who keep the group chat popping year after year. It’s a festive mix of retail therapy, family tension, and the kind of chaos only the holidays can deliver.

This week, it’s just the girls! So we are cracking open the vault of sleepover chaos. We’re talking the spooky games we definitely shouldn’t have played—Bloody Mary, Light as a Feather, and of course a dramatic round of Concentrate, where you casually predict your death.But the real magic? Your stories.We’re playing listener submissions, reacting in real time, and trying not to summon anything in the process.So grab your oversized hoodie, dim the lights, and get ready for Concentrate, Concentrate: Sleepover Rituals & Listener Originals

Happy Halloween!! This Halloween, the Boos are blowing the lid off the real candy conspiracy. No razor blades, no poison—just Big Parents trying to kill the vibe. We’re also diving into a much darker question—would you actually want to know your death date?So grab your plastic pumpkin, unwrap something suspiciously sticky, and hop on the Last Chopper Out before the caramel sets.

It’s officially spooky season, and the boos are back from their pirate voyage in Gatlinburg!  In this episode, we chat about our trip, share our all-time favorite Halloween costumes, and dive deep into the most important pop culture debate of the season: which celebrity Halloween costumes are actually “peeable”?So grab a drink, unzip your bodysuit before we start, and join us for Go Piss Girl: Halloween Edition. AND Let us know what you are going to be for halloween!!

SPOILER ALERT: DON’T LISTEN IF YOU WANT TO PLAY It’s game night at Boos & Banter! In this episode, we dive into The Haunting of Wicker Ridge, the haunted Hunt A Killer game created with Sam & Colby. From creepy clues to chaotic theories, we play through the entire mystery—and yes, we have some strong opinions on this game.Whether you’re a true crime game lover, a Sam & Colby fan, or just here for the boos (and the banter), you’ll get puzzles, laughs, and some very questionable detective work. Did you solve the case before us?

We know you’re here because we told you to follow us on Instagram last night… and honestly, thanks for listening. On this episode, we tackle glitches in the Matrix, dream-hopping gone wrong, and the age-old question: which book world is worth abandoning this one for? By the end, Macy’s flashing strangers in dreamland, Kristen’s always promoting, and Meagen’s infinity scarf is probably the next Infinity Stone.

Grab your saddles and your shot glasses, because this week’s episode is a full-on haunted bar crawl. We set out to cover the 13 most haunted bars in the U.S., but things quickly spiraled into mispronunciations (yes, Kristen really said “TuckSon”), questionable vocabulary choices (“noise make” is a thing now), and Nicole’s bold theory that every single bar is haunted by horses.Somewhere between a one-armed flasher ghost and way too many phantom stallions, we lost track of the spooky history and ended up laughing our way through the list. If you came for chilling ghost tales, you’ll stay for the unhinged banter and haunted horse girl energy.

If Bigfoot had a Hinge, what would he put in his prompts? This week, we’re swiping through the supernatural as we design dating profiles for some of the world’s most mysterious cryptids.Also TM on the books we are going to write - please don’t steal our ideas… AND Nicole calls dibs on Bigfoot

This episode has range, y’all.We kick things off comparing our morning routines and the tiny things that throw us into full spiral mode. Then we ask the most pressing question, should we go on Love Is Blind?  because obviously that’s a great idea. Next up, the haunted heart of the episode: Reddit ghost stories that made us full-on believers. From chilling tales to petty poltergeists (some of whom might be 5’6”), we’re talking short king spirits, Napoleon’s questionable smashability, and the ghosts we’d probably flirt with if given the chance.But wait — we don’t stop there. We wrap things up with nostalgia, sharing chaotic childhood vision test stories, school memories, and the trauma of not being able to find the E on the chart.If you read this far... 5 Stars for you

There’s something in the air at Cheney Mansion... maybe it’s ghosts, maybe it’s game. We took Savannah on her first investigation and were not prepared for how flirty the spirits got.From spectral suitors to deep discussions about how many hot dogs we’ve eaten in our lifetimes, this one’s haunted and unhinged in the best way.. truly Boos AND Banter If you read this far, comment a hot dog emoji on our instagram post

In this week’s unhinged episode, we pit two very different (but equally cursed) Roberts against each other: the infamous haunted doll from Key West and the emotionally haunted man from Twilight. Along the way, we spiral into haunted toy stories, how a place actually becomes haunted, and the existential dread of being asked where you’re from.Somehow we cover ghosts, toys, Twilight, and hometown trauma without taking a single breath.Good luck and let us know what creepy object(s) you are going to pass on to your friends/family.

We’re back, baby — and we survived the curse… maybe.After mysteriously losing our last two episodes (seriously, what kind of evil podcast hex is this?!), we’re finally back on track. This week, we dish about our Bar Rescue adventure — chaotic, messy, but definitely not haunted (unless you count the vibe). Then we spiral into the world of real curses: ancient mummies, the Hope Diamond, and other legendary bad-luck charms. Are we cursed? Are you cursed now just from listening? Only one way to find out.

We open this week’s episode with an urgent update: our ghost, Mark, is acting up again. From poltergeist behavior to very coincidental Ghost Tube messaging, it’s clear he’s either trying to scare us or become another member of Boos and Banter. Then, we check ourselves into the St. Louis Lunatic Asylum—because apparently back in the day, all it took was “imaginary female trouble” or a little too much bookworm energy to get locked up. We dive into the history of the institution, then crank the volume with a lineup of fake band names inspired by the real (and ridiculous) reasons people were admitted.

We tried to figure out which cryptids are real and which ones were cooked up by ChatGPT... turns out we’re terrible at both folklore and reading.Featuring: haunted plastic bags (Meltshade), fart stats (Nicole), and a martini/oyster death wish (Macy). Also? The Thistlewife might be hot.It’s cryptid chaos and peak Us. You’ve been warned.

Koch or Cholera? (get it like Coke or Pepsi)Did you know St. Louis had its own Waverly Hills?Meagen and Zack ditch the rest of the gang this week and discuss a forgotten piece of St. Louis History. Well, it's mostly Zack rummaging through a stack of papers and trying to form sentences...

Conspiracies or something? I don’t know. Kristen is insane. Mermaids are real. Shrek 2 is supreme.

He dropped off a package and picked up a possession...No, but really he is our friend... meet Almedin!He does not work at UPS. He HAS had a super weird experience with black magic. Let us know if you believe him AND if you would like for him to come back and be a guest again in the comments.

For our second Would You Rather episode - we dive into way too many personal details and oddly enough bodily functions?We blame the nurse. We talk about our high school bullies (or bullying) and how Zack was the number one target of the Gleek club.Also, if Kristen @'ed you on twitter in high school, she's sorry.

You loved it. We loved it. How could we not do another round? May be the last because Zack can no longer be trusted to put together LOGICAL sounds.He also hates periods. And Women. Pirates of the Caribbean is not a period film.

We're back!! Starting Season 2 off with an unhinged episode recapping Season 1. All our favorite moments, boring statistics, and Nicole's 26 New Year's Resolutions.. we hope you missed us 🤪👀Also Hello Fresh if you see this we are sorry..

Play along and see if you can guess before us because I can almost guarantee that you will! Also Macy loves Abraham Lincoln, what more can we say.. No fun ad this week, Kristen did the editing to give Zack a well deserved break and she procrastinated and isn't as good as him.

Tis the season to gather round a fire and share some tales. Join us as we read some creepy, 100% true (😉), and weirdly comical stories. We thank Reddit for our source and of course Beyonce.Honestly if you skip to the end just for Zack’s narration, no judgement here.

The Gang explores and chats about the 20 most Haunted places in St. Louis.. but it isn't in order, we have little information, and everywhere is haunted be a lady in white.It is a lot more fun than it sounds, I swear.Also, Zack is back with the most RIDICULOUS ad yet..... unless you are interested 👀

Watch as Mothman bumbles his way through a doomed romance that’s more comical than creepy. Then, join the most infamous serial killer on this side of the Mississippi for a ...ruff time. And finally, Gordon Ramsay finds himself in the most ridiculous love story ever—complete with a killer ending.

After a stacked debate on which breakfast we would fuc-KISS, marry, or kill.. the brunch bunch chats about biggest fears and why we are the way we are. Zack’s ads just keep getting better and better and honestly the podcast may be holding him back 😂

Pickles and Reddit dating advice. Name a better combo. If you are looking for relationship advice on Reddit, chances are you are already in the gutter. Just ask the three single women (one divorced) and the happy couple for our advice.

This week, the Gang dives into a requested topic - Appalachian Folklore. No matter how you pronounce it, it is eerie either way. Listen and decide if this is another tik tok trend or is something truly roaming the mountains?

This week the Gang dives into the unknown of the afterlife. Our beliefs, ideas, religions.. so much to banter about. Oh, and we are really good at sounding like Owen Wilson.

The full Gang is back this week to review, discuss, and debate some personal ghostly encounters from the Mineral Springs Hotel in Alton, Illinois. Our skeptics keep us in check, but maybe there’s more to the story than we know 👀
