Welcome to the very first episode of Wyrd Wessex! Join Andy and Craig as they introduce the show, share their weirdest personal experiences, and dive into why history and folklore are inseparable.
What We Talk About:
- Why Wyrd? We get into the history behind our name and the Anglo-Saxon word for fate.
- Our Weird Origin Stories: Andy and Craig share what got them into the paranormal world, from The X-Files and Ghostbusters to wanting to be a vicar to live next to a graveyard!
- Skeptic vs. Believer: Find out who's the real Mulder and who's the Scully of the podcast.
- Kids and Ghosts: The wyrdo's share some of their personal, creepy paranormal experiences, including a shadow man in a hat, a ghost mouse, and some very unsettling sleep paralysis stories.
- Folklore vs. History: We geek out about why you can't have one without the other and how legends and myths are a window into the past.
- The Big Question: Why is it more socially acceptable to talk about ghosts than aliens?
- Show Teasers: Get a sneak peek at what's coming up, including our "Wyrd News" segment and plans for on-location videos.
Stay Wyrd!
