Hi Weirdos!

Are you ready to get deep? This is part two of our Q & A session with Amy Goldenburg of House of Heron's Eye. Amy is a medium who has been working as a spiritual healer in Los Angeles for years and she sat down with your host Ashley to answer YOUR questions!

In part one we covered ghosts, death, aliens, and tarot cards. This week we have a much more serious conversation. We discuss healing past traumas, discovering your life's purpose, finding happiness, spiritual healing, communicating with loved ones we have lost, and we even answer the question "Can a ghost be a perv?"

This episode deals a lot with spirituality, faith, life, and unconditional love. Keep an open mind; you never know what you could gain!

Life, Death, & the Pursuit of Spirit Jul 05, 2019

Show notes

Welcome to a very special episode of Keep It Weird wherein Ashley sits down for an intimate conversation with the show's favorite medium- Amy Goldenberg.

Over 50 listeners sent in questions for this episode and we set out to answer as many as possible. Questions about death, the afterlife, connecting with your spirit, overcoming the fear and uncertainty of spirituality, finding ways to communicate with those who have passed, knowing when you're on the right path in life, and even the existence of extra terrestrials.

This episode is as fascinating to listen to as it was to record and my most sincere hope is that you listen with an open mind and find a way to become closer to your spiritual self-- in whatever way is meaningful to you.

Make sure you follow Amy on instagram @houseofheronseye and reach out to say hello!

Hi Weirdos!

This week is all about SERIAL KILLERS! Lauren and Ashley are going to be chatting about some of the lesser known serial murderers, who they killed, how they killed, how they were caught, and how they are all a bunch of dumb a-hole jerks.

Listen in for stories that are disturbing, cops and laws that are frustrating, letters to police, bodies buried under your feet, and a collection of men that are complete trash.

Welcome to PART TWO of our CREEPY CHILDREN episode! Ashley and Lauren are joined again by Lauren's wonderful sister Julia and her newborn baby boy Wilder as we continue our creepy chat.

Last week we talked all about the paranormal and children's abilities to witness it. This week Lauren kicks it off by telling us about some children who MURDER and it is a nightmare. Extra Warnings this week-- it's not an easy topic.

But have no fear, Julia is here to lighten up the mood when she brings us her research into the psychology behind why children are oh so spooky. Creepy kids in movies have always brought in those box office dolla bills-- and the reason why may surprise you.
