First Week Of NOV!

Halloweek!

Halloweek!

Halloweek!

Episode 93: “A Record Length Nipple Hair”In this jam-packed episode of Ineffably Sublime, the crew dives into everything from absurd personal discoveries to eerie legends from across the globe. DeeJ, Mitch, and Amanda kick things off with banter about AI video tools like Sora 2 before spiraling into the painful reality of dairy intolerance and the existential crisis of post-pizza regret. From there, the team debates the pros and cons of video podcasts, movie-watching philosophies, and the strange joy of Halloween excess.But things take a darker—and funnier—turn as they explore bizarre and haunting folklore from around the world: China’s corpse walkers, France’s headless Saint Denis, Brazil’s Barbara of Pleasures, Nigeria’s Madame Koi Koi, and Mongolia’s legendary death worm. Along the way, they somehow fit in a rant about Halloween candy lawsuits, a few soundboard mishaps, and Amanda’s wild FedEx sighting.By the time they wrap, the crew has traveled through centuries of superstition, cultural oddities, and inexplicable nonsense—all with the signature mix of curiosity and chaos that defines Ineffably Sublime.

EPISODE 84 — The Cotton-Tale of the Enchanted MuffThis week, we thrust ourselves into one of the most hare-raising medical scandals in British history — the curious case of Mary Toft, a woman who convinced doctors she was giving birth to… rabbits. And not metaphorically. Literally. From the actual womb zone.Was it a miracle? Madness? Or just an elaborate game of hide the hare?DeeJ, Mitch, and Amanda dig deep into this 18th-century tale of misdirection, misdiagnosis, and misunderstood anatomy. We’re talkin’ surgeons with blind faith, midwives with questionable ethics, and one enchanted muff with more plot twists than a Victorian soap opera.It’s history’s most anatomically confusing magic trick — and no, pulling a rabbit out of a hat doesn’t even begin to cover it.Things get weird. Things get wooly. And you’ll never look at bunny ears the same way again

We're glitching hard this week and we apologize. It was excruciatingly cold in western Pennsylvania when we recorded and we think the weather was fucking with the interwebs. We had major shrinkage and booger freezing, and can't wait for spring. Were you around for the Challenger exposion? Where were you? Apparently Deej came to be because of this event! And apparently Deej and Mitch both were at the DuBois Hospital at the time of the Discovery explosion. What's going on in Flint, MI? Allegedly the old police academy is to become the future home of a marijuana grow plant. Today's episode features weird words and silly names. Have you ever been bumfuzzled? Or experienced a meldrop? Can you gleek? Is Mitch's booger still at his old school?? To be continued next week with more absurd words! Do you have any weird words you want to add to our list?

How’s your penis? A sea slug can rustle up a new one for you in 24 hours, as well as scoop out any rival sperm still hanging out in a recently mated female.
