    105. Popper, the Herrmann House Ghost
    May 29 2024

    Some ghosts will scare you within an inch of your life. Others will unscrew peroxide lids. You really just never know what kind of ghost you're going to get. It's a real roll of the dice. And for the first time, even Clayton wonders, "Hey...is this actually a ghost?"

    This is the story of Popper, the Herrmann House Ghost. Come for the ghost, stay for the Ozark version of a WASP, classic bone-having, straight into the flammenwerfer, some Bedknobs and Broomsticks sh*t, Detective Daddy, and feral water.

    104. The Ghost of Sawney Bean
    May 22 2024

    We've done cannibalism, but have we done incest AND cannibalism?! Not that we can recall. But to be honest, we cannot be trusted with things like this. So. What was the question?

    This is the story of the ghost of Sawney Bean. Come for the ghost, stay for the summer of love, rated G for grotty, (witch understood), we got to cannibalism fast, one stone three score hands, how did this get worse from the cannibal part?, CHUD lures, all this peat to eat, live by the barbecue, die by the barbecue, and CHUD justice.

  • 103. The Dumas Brothel

    103. The Dumas Brothel
    May 15 2024

    In what is by far the most sex-positive episode of ITAG yet (sorry, Naked Abe), the guys explore the wonders of Butte, Montana's red light district. And eventually they talk about some ghosts.

    This is the story of the Dumas Brothel. Come for the ghosts, stay for girding one’s loins, mining for electricity, hard work and hard men, Patrick’s insight into how sex works, brotheling?, we don’t supply the towels, and you’re also a dog.

makes me laugh out loud

This podcast makes me want to get drunk and have conversations with my friends 😂 I will listen with a headphone in while doing chores and my kids keep asking what I'm laughing at. A great podcast for anyone that enjoys paranormal/history stories but also has a dark humor.

Ghost stories for interest, not scares

I enjoyed listening to this podcast over a long distance road trip I was doing alone. I'm not super into podcasts in general, because I often find podcaster people annoying and, mostly, I don't love having to listen to a conversation I can't take part in. But I loved Cartalk back in the day, so that's an example of a talk radio show I enjoyed. I'm guessing this is not really a show for super ghost obsessives, since they are very open about not doing tons of reasearch, but it is good enough to tell an absorbing story and they note the stuff that could stand more investigation, if you want to do it. They also tell a lot of stories I've never heard before, which is refreshing. They hit some of the big, famous ones, of course, but also go into a lot of smaller, more off the wall ones as well, which I really enjoy. I find ghost stories super interesting, but when I'm driving for hours alone, especially at night, I don't need to be freaked out. They go on so many tangents and get distracted by the randomest details, that it's very difficult to get genuinely scared. It is, however, entertaining and they have a friendly vibe. I subtracted a star on a less important rating because sometimes the meandering tangents are genuinely too long, especially the ones about their personal lives.

Other points of note: I appreciate Patrick's effort to "fix" some of the misguided phrasing of things, such as when a sexual relationship between a slave and her owner is termed an "affair" by a reputable news source and he insists on calling it assault. It is hopeful when people doing things in the public eye/media etc. learn to be better and call out mistakes like this (yes, it is generous to call them mistakes). Secondly, I very much enjoy Clayton's appreciation of the ridiculous. The more absurd and, frankly, dumb the situation gets, the more he savors it, which gives me vicarious chuckles. Third, they have serious geek cred, which they reveal incidentally, for the most part, like when Clayton makes a semi obscure He-Man reference or when he admits his celebrity crush is on Tatiana Maslany (She Hulk). I own a Bubbah Hotep dvd and saw it on the big screen in Chicago hosted by Bruce Campbell in person, so I feel like they're kinda my people (Patrick has a signed poster from the movie).

Overall, definitely five stars. My favourite story so far is the one about the ghost hole. I love that and think it needs to be a plot device in a mystery novel.
