Inbox Of Oddities #86

This week’s Inbox of Oddities is packed with nightmare fuel, Viking poop lore, haunted farmhouse crawlspaces, ghost geese, forbidden islands, creepy imaginary friends, and one truly alarming email titled “Wombat Geometry.” Yes. Really. Kat and Jethro dive into listener stories that range from hilariously bizarre to deeply unsettling — including children hearing crying inside walls, mysterious cigarette smoke lingering in a 200-year-old farmhouse, and the psychological differences between fearing heights, edges, and falling. Along the way, they discuss Niʻihau, Hawaii’s mysterious “Forbidden Island,” Leonard Nimoy’s classic In Search Of, escalator phobias, Viking digestive disasters, and whether ghost geese should properly be called “poltergeese” or “poultrygeists.” Plus: The world’s largest fossilized human turd A box full of detached Roman statue dicks Spam emails about cube-shaped wombat poop Strange things kids say that absolutely should not be repeated after dark Cat’s mission to rescue dogs from Ecuador The Freak Family once again proving they’re the greatest community on earth If you like creepy listener stories, weird history, paranormal oddities, dark humor, and the kind of conversations that spiral from Viking bowel movements to haunted walls in under three minutes, this episode is your happy place. #BoxOfOddities #InboxOfOddities #ParanormalPodcast #WeirdHistory #GhostStories #LeonardNimoy #Niihau #ForbiddenIsland #WombatGeometry #VikingHistory #TrueWeird #FreakFamily Learn more about your ad choices.
