    Fall 2025 Tour Tickets Here! What do you get when you cross a brain surgery patient with an out-of-body experience and a ghost-repelling paint color? This episode of The Box of Oddities, naturally. Join Kat and Jethro as they dive into the astonishing near-death experience of Pam Reynolds—a woman who, while clinically dead during a high-risk procedure, claims to have seen and heard what no one should be able to. Then, things get… bluer. We explore the chilling folklore behind haint blue, the southern porch paint that allegedly sends ghosts packing faster than you can say “sweet tea séance.” Is consciousness more than brain chemistry? Can a color scheme protect your soul? Spoiler alert: this episode raises more questions than your weird aunt at a summer barbecue. Perfect for fans of the paranormal, NDEs, folklore, and paint swatches with an attitude.

    🎧 "THE POSSESSED CAT & THE BATHROOM SQUIRREL” 🐈🧀🧻 In this utterly unhinged installment of Inbox of Oddities, we tackle the most important questions of our time: Can a shower grout demon be reasoned with? Why does Alexa giggle during arguments like a passive-aggressive poltergeist? Is IKEA just a Scandinavian liminal plane with meatballs? Join Kat & Jethro as they dive headfirst into a haunted ceiling squirrel invasion, a Cheesecake-Swilling Cat named Garfield (who may or may not have been possessed by a middle-aged man), and one poor soul’s biblical encounter with Bea Arthur in the Book of Revelations. Also in this episode:– A daring puppy heist across four lanes of traffic 🐕– The Tile Demon of Shower Sector 6 🚿– The haunted smart speaker that wants your man 💬– A dad trapped in a non-existent IKEA 📦 And don’t miss our youngest, most dedicated fan, Katie (age 13, net worth: $1.37), who might actually be running this show soon.

    LIVE SHOW TIX HERE! Time Travel Insurance and Unusual Post-Funeral Food Traditions: Ever worried about getting stuck in the 17th century without proper coverage? In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro unearth the curious 19th-century phenomenon of time travel insurance—yes, that was a real thing, and yes, people actually bought it. Spoiler: it did not cover paradoxes. Then, journey into the comforting yet curious world of funeral foods, from the delightfully savory to the downright head-scratching. Why do certain cultures serve pickled fish or cookies shaped like bones when someone dies? The answers are as flavorful as they are fascinating. Prepare for a double-serving of the bizarre and the bereaved, where historical absurdity meets culinary ritual. If you love strange history, macabre traditions, and the kind of podcast content that makes you blurt out “wait, WHAT?” in public, this episode is for you.

  • March of the Crabs, Descent of the Angels
    2025/05/28
    See The Box Of Oddities Live! In this delightfully peculiar episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro explore two phenomena that are equal parts baffling and brilliant. First, the "Angels of Mons"—were they divine warriors, hallucinations, or just an epic case of wartime wishful thinking? Either way, something peculiar happened over those World War I trenches. Then: behold the annual crustacean apocalypse of Christmas Island, where millions of bright red crabs migrate en masse, overrunning roads, homes, and possibly your nightmares. It’s nature’s strangest traffic jam—and no one knows why they’re doing it. Expect ghosts, crustaceans, and confusion in equal measure. Prepare to question everything. Even your seafood preferences.

  • Frozen Lovers, a Doomed Czar, and the Devil’s Footprints
    2025/05/26
    Tickets to The Live Shows Here! In this episode of The Box of Oddities, we chip away at the icy mystery of Marcelin and Francine Dumoulin, a Swiss couple who vanished into thin air—only to reappear 75 years later like a very slow RSVP. Then, we time-travel to 18th-century Russia for the hilariously tragic reign of Peter III, a czar whose six-month stint makes your worst temp job look like a lifetime achievement. And finally, we tiptoe through Devon, England, where the Devil apparently went on a midnight jog in 1855—leaving behind some truly unsettling hoofprints that no one’s explained since. Get ready for frozen revelations, royal ridiculousness, and paranormal podiatry. It’s weird, it’s wild, it’s everything you listen to The Box of Oddities for.

    Live Show Tickets Here INBOX OF ODDITIES: - “The Ghost in the Toothbrush Cup” In this kaleidoscopic journey through the wonderfully weird, Kat and Jethro crack open the mailbag and unleash a cavalcade of listener tales that range from hilariously haunted to just plain chewy. A lazy terrier named Morris becomes an anti-hero during a rodent emergency, a haunted hearing aid refuses to let the afterlife be silent, and a fridge appears to be starting its own pickle-based cult. Also: a ghostly Bluetooth grandma, a time-slip at the DMV, a soup deity with a raccoon entourage, and a cat who might be a reincarnated Gregorian monk. Throw in a spectral rainbow telegram from Mom, a jingle-induced fugue state, and a faceless imaginary friend shared across state lines, and you’ve got yourself an Inbox episode bursting at the seams with deliciously odd correspondence from The Box of Oddities Freak Family. Do ghosts use Bluetooth? Did Grandma become a banshee? Is your fridge whispering secrets about Greg? Listen in and find out. You might just have a Boo Effect of your own. 📦👻 #HauntedHearingAid #SoupGod #MorrisTheDog #BooEffect #GhostsUseBluetooth #RaccoonProphet #PickleWhispers #MrButterbeanLives #BoxOfOddities #InboxOfOddities #ParanormalPets #WeirdListenerTales #DMVTimeWarp #CatChantChoir #SpectralSnacks Learn more about your ad choices.
