Why 12,000-Year-Old T-Pillars Just Appeared in the Euphrates River THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 72

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 02:27:00 -0000

The map of the Neolithic revolution just changed forever. In January 2026, receding waters of the Atatürk Dam in the Adıyaman province of Turkey revealed something archaeologists thought was confined to a small cluster: monumental T-pillars identical to those found at Göbekli Tepe. This discovery proves that the "Pillar Religion" of the Stone Hills (Taş Tepeler) was far more widespread and sophisticated than previously believed.

Sasquatch In My Back Yard? Jon's Possible May 2025 Bigfoot Incident THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 71

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 02:08:00 -0000

You don’t expect to find a legend just miles from a bustling city, but something changed in Jon's suburban Boston back yard last May. We often think of Sasquatch as a creature of the deep Pacific Northwest, but what Jon experienced made him question all of his assumptions about Bigfoot. In this video, Jon breaks down exactly what happened—strange noises, awful smells, and eerie sensations. Was it a black bear passing through, or something else entirely?

The Mapinguari: Brazilian Bigfoot That Guards Amazon’s Lost Cities THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 70

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 01:42:00 -0000

Deep within the "Terra Firme" of the Amazon Rainforest, where human footprints are rare and ancient ruins are swallowed by the canopy, lives a creature that shouldn't exist. It is known as the Mapinguari - the Brazilian Bigfoot. Witnesses describe a 7-to-9-foot-tall monster with matted red fur, a paralyzing "stench of death," and skin so thick that bullets bounce off it like pebbles. Is this a mere indigenous legend, or are we looking at a living prehistoric survivor? Don't forget to Like, Subscribe, and Hit That Notification Bell!

Bigfoot in the Backyard: The Shocking Proximity of Sasquatch to Boston THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 69

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 01:31:00 -0000

We often think of Bigfoot as a creature of the deep, untouched wilderness of the Pacific Northwest or the vast North Woods of Maine. But what if the world's most elusive apex predator is living right on the edge of the Boston skyline? In this episode, Jon explores the "Urban Fringe" theory. He looks at the green corridors that lead directly into the heart of the Greater Boston area—from the rugged terrain of the Blue Hills Reservation to the dense, rocky thickets of the Middlesex Fells. These aren't just parks; they are part of an "Emerald Necklace" of connected wetlands and forests that allow a large creature to move unseen within miles of Fenway Park. Boston may be a concrete jungle, but the shadows on its edges are deeper than you think. Don't forget to Like, Subscribe, and Hit That Notification Bell!

The First Abduction? The Story of Betty & Barney Hill THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 68

Tue, 07 Apr 2026 01:12:00 -0000

September 19, 1961, changed the landscape of the paranormal forever. While driving through the dark mountain passes of Franconia Notch, New Hampshire, Betty and Barney Hill encountered a craft that would result in the world's most famous "missing time" event. But was it just a story? Or is there something more to it? Jon looks at the events that took place and also into the often-overlooked corroboration from the 764th Radar Squadron at East Mountain Radar Station in Vermont, where an anomalous object was tracked the very night the Hills were taken. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, the Hill case remains the "Gold Standard" of ufology because of the physical and technical evidence that refuses to go away.

In this video, Jon investigates the terrifying reality of the New England Dogman. From the high-stakes 2021 encounter in Methuen, Massachusetts, to chilling recent reports from the White Mountains of New Hampshire in late 2024 and Maine in 2025, Jon tracks this bipedal predator across all six states.

The Impossible Mystery of Bigfoot on Cape Cod THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 66

Sun, 05 Apr 2026 19:38:00 -0000

Is it possible for a 8-foot-tall apex predator to cross one of the most guarded waterways in America? Cape Cod, Massachusetts, is famous for its beaches, but for cryptid researchers, the real story lies in the dense pine barrens and the restricted acreage of Joint Base Cape Cod. In this video, Jon tackles the "Canal Problem," and explores the polarizing theories of how a Sasquatch could possibly reach the peninsula—from swimming the treacherous, high-velocity currents of the Cape Cod Canal to making a high-stakes midnight dash across the Railroad Bridge.

Sun, 05 Apr 2026 15:48:00 -0000

Is Sasquatch hiding in the Bay State? While many associate Bigfoot with the Pacific Northwest, Massachusetts has a dense history of sightings that suggest a sophisticated, seasonal migration pattern. In this deep-dive documentary, Jon explores the three primary "Hidden Highways" used by these elusive beings: the Berkshire-Taconic Corridor, the mysterious "Monsterland" of Central MA, and the high-strangeness of the Bridgewater Triangle.

The Vanishing Passenger: The Mystery of Phantom Hitchhikers THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 64

Sat, 04 Apr 2026 19:14:00 -0000

It is perhaps the most persistent urban legend in history. You’re driving down a lonely highway at night, you pick up a quiet passenger in distress, and minutes later, they simply vanish from your moving vehicle. From Resurrection Mary on Chicago’s Archer Avenue to the tragic "Bride-to-be" of Blue Bell Hill in Kent, the Phantom Hitchhiker is a global phenomenon that has haunted our roads for generations. Jon explores the factual folklore and regional case studies that define this spectral commuter. Is this legend a collective psychological response to the dangers of the road, or are these highways truly conduits for restless spirits?

Is it a machine, a biological entity, or a glitch in our sensors? The Jellyfish UAP has become one of the most baffling categories of unidentified phenomena ever recorded by the US military. From the leaked 2018 footage over a joint operations base in Iraq to the brand-new sightings, Jon takes a deep dive into an object that defies every known law of aerodynamics. With recent Congressional hearings bringing "Age of Disclosure" topics to the forefront, the Jellyfish remains the smoking gun for many UAP researchers.

The Mysterious Sea People Who Destroyed the Bronze Age THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 60

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 20:13:00 -0000

Around 1200 BCE, an unprecedented catastrophe struck the ancient world, bringing down nearly every major civilization from Greece to Mesopotamia. This event, known as the Bronze Age Collapse, was fueled by an enigmatic and terrifying maritime force: The Sea People. Using primary sources from Ancient Egyptian records—specifically the temple of Ramesses III at Medinet Habu—Jon tracks the origins and devastating path of this coalition of raiders and migrants. We analyze the different groups (Peleset, Sherden, Denyen) and explore the complex archaeological evidence suggesting they were not the only cause of the collapse, but the final, fatal blow. Discover the "perfect storm" of events that made the empires so vulnerable. Join Jon as he unravels one of history's greatest military and population migration mysteries, and learn how the Sea People paved the way for the world of the Iron Age.

The Barmanou: Pakistan's Elusive Bigfoot-like Cryptid THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 59

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 19:04:00 -0000

The Barmanou is perhaps the most compelling and terrifying human-like cryptid you’ve never heard of. Forget the giant Yeti; meet the Wild Man of the Hindu Kush—a stocky, muscular creature that some researchers believe is a surviving relic hominid, perhaps a form of Neanderthal. Jon goes deep into the treacherous mountains of Northern Pakistan to uncover the chilling story of the Barmanou. Drawing on extensive local news reports and the meticulous, decades-long research of Spanish zoologist Jordi Magraner, this video explores the most detailed accounts of this elusive creature. ⚠️ No confirmed photo or video evidence of the Barmanou exists.

The Iran Incident Where F-4 Fighter Jets Were Crippled by a UAP THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 58

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 18:19:00 -0000

Dive into the details of the highly corroborated Tehran UFO Incident of September 19, 1976, one of the most compelling military-UAP confrontations in history, verified by a declassified U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) report. Jon analyzes the events of that night, starting with the initial civilian and air traffic control reports of an intensely bright, shape-shifting object over the capital. Followed by the scrambling of two advanced Imperial Iranian Air Force F-4 Phantom II jets and the immediate, profound consequences. The second encounter culminated with the main UAP deploying a smaller, aggressive secondary object that pursued the F-4 before vanishing. This is a factual, technical analysis of a documented case where advanced military hardware was decisively neutralized by an unknown aerial phenomenon.

Göbekli Tepe: The 12,000-Year-Old Temple That Rewrote History THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 57

Fri, 03 Apr 2026 17:36:00 -0000

Journey to southeastern Turkey and explore Göbekli Tepe, the world’s oldest known temple, a monumental site dating back to 9600 BCE—predating Stonehenge by six millennia and the Egyptian pyramids by seven. Built by hunter-gatherers during the Pre-Pottery Neolithic period, Göbekli Tepe fundamentally challenges the long-held belief that agriculture and settled life had to precede complex social organization and monumental architecture. Jon examines the massive, intricately carved 16-ton T-shaped pillars, the engineering feat required to move them with only stone tools, and the mysterious iconography of wild animals and stylized human figures. And he explores the revolutionary hypothesis that the need for communal ritual and shared belief—not agricultural surplus—was the primary catalyst that drove humanity to settle down, leading directly to the birth of civilization itself.

USAF Vet Witnesses Sasquatch "Gliding" Across I-80 in 3 Seconds THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 56

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 22:33:00 -0000

Dive into the details of one of the most compelling and high-credibility Bigfoot reports of this season: the daylight sighting on I-80 in Centre County, Pennsylvania, in early October 2025. Jon breaks down the testimony of the eyewitness, a retired civil engineer, Air Force veteran, and lifelong hunter, whose credibility makes misidentification virtually impossible. The most critical part of the report is the creature's movement, described not as a human sprint but as an impossible, smooth "glide or sliding motion" that effortlessly carried it over the median guardrail.

Brazil's Roswell: the 1996 Varginha Incident & Alien Recovery THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 55

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 19:19:00 -0000

Step back to January 1996, when the quiet city of Varginha, Brazil, became the site of one of the most explosive and chilling UAP incidents in modern history. Often called the "Brazilian Roswell," this case involves multiple consistent witnesses—including teenage girls, military firemen, and hospital staff—who reported seeing, capturing, and handling a non-human entity following a confirmed UAP crash. Jon analyzes the subsequent, rapid military cleanup operation, the alleged transportation of two entities to local hospitals, and the shocking, suspicious death of Sergeant Marco Eli Cherese, the soldier allegedly involved in the creature's direct capture. Despite the Brazilian military's persistent denial, the consistent testimony of high-level sources strongly suggests a complex cover-up of an extraterrestrial recovery.

Mon, 30 Mar 2026 22:05:00 -0000

Tonight, we dive into the chilling story of the Amomongo, the terrifying cryptid known as the "Philippines Bigfoot" or "Philippine Gorilla."

Journey with me to the remote region of La Castellana at the base of the active Mount Kanlaon on Negros Island. I'll explore the creature's lore, its shocking description (a hairy white ape with long, sharp nails), and the intense fear it brought to the local community - especially when in 2008 it attacked two villagers Salvador Aguilar and Elias Galvez, who were left with serious scratches and injuries after direct confrontations with the creature. This is the incident that turned a local legend into a global cryptozoology mystery, prompting an official response from the town's mayor. What is the Amomongo?

The Pope’s Army: Why 300 Exorcists Just Gathered in Rome in 2025 THE WEEKLY STRANGE Episode 43

Wed, 01 Oct 2025 01:00:00 -0000

In September 2025, a startling event took place just outside Rome: the 15th International Gathering of the International Association of Exorcists (IAE). This is the factual, institutional reality behind the horror movie trope. I'll break down why 300 Catholic priests from around the world convened to discuss the 'delicate and necessary ministry' of exorcism. I reveal the Church’s rigorous diagnostic process for possession, the chilling criteria used to identify genuine cases, and the documented global surge—particularly in places like Italy—that necessitates these conferences. I also look at the direct, official endorsement from Pope Leo XIV. This is the 21st-century battle against spiritual evil, sanctioned by the Vatican, and it is far more real than you think.

Is A Hostile Alien Probe Heading To Earth? Scientist Says Yes! The Weekly Strange Episode 27

Tue, 05 Aug 2025 23:00:00 -0000

The Harvard Scientist Warning: Is a Hostile Alien Probe Heading for Earth? Is humanity on the brink of first contact? A groundbreaking paper by acclaimed Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb claims a mysterious interstellar object, the comet 3I/ATLAS, is not a natural phenomenon but a "reconnaissance probe" from an advanced alien civilization. Its bizarre, deliberate trajectory defies all known physics and has set the scientific community ablaze. In this deep-dive, we break down the evidence for Loeb’s controversial theory, from the comet’s improbable planetary flybys to the idea of a potential solar sail propulsion system. But what would this mean for us? We revisit the chilling warnings of the late Stephen Hawking and explore the terrifying Dark Forest Hypothesis, which suggests that making ourselves known to the cosmos could be a fatal mistake. We'll also examine the real-world implications, including the urgent call for a space probe interception mission and the political hurdles standing in the way. With a new wave of government transparency surrounding UAPs and the Pentagon’s own investigations, the conversation about alien life is no longer a fringe conspiracy—it’s a mainstream scientific debate with massive consequences. Don’t miss this comprehensive look at the most significant UFO theory of 2025. Could this be our first glimpse of a hostile alien threat?
