Well, we mention and reference this COMEDY CLASSIC enough as it is, so we may as well devote an entire episode to the unforgettable, "CADDYSHACK!!" FUN FACTS, fascinating BEHIND THE SCENES & MAKING OF info and tidbits...The GENERATIONAL GAP between certain stars added credence and tension to the characters and production of this film...Can anyone say "RAMPANT COCAINE USE?"

Boy oh boy, was this a good one...Diving into (no pun intended) LAKE MONSTERS & SEA BEASTS!! Either Lesser-known or legendary, what is the basis for such tales? The PSYCHOLOGY of FEAR of WHAT LIES BENEATH! SENSATIONALISM, TABLOID JOURNALISM and EXPLOITATION...BUT, what if these "tall tales" are LEGIT? Who is to say they aren't??

Oh MY! We had such a BLAST with this one! Talking CREEPY CREATURES, EERIE LEGENDS & CRYPTID ENCOUNTERS!! Have you heard of the controversial HOPKINSVILLE GOBLINS' story? Was it an ALIEN ENCOUNTER, or drunken shenanigans? The LEGEND of the Cherokee "LITTLE PEOPLE" is both intriguing and spooky! The WATER BABIES of MASSACRE ROCKS in beyond description....Just listen. Mike also has some GHOSTLY updates about his very PARANORMALLY active house, and Patrick is weirded out by his rediscovered "DEMON POSSESSION TODAY" book! lol Levity ensues, as always...

Show notes

Two topics we are passionate about....Why not combine them? The very REAL connection between STAR WARS and the PARANORMAL!! FORCE GHOSTS? Check. CONSCIOUSNESS AFTER DEATH? Check. LIVING & COSMIC FORCE? Check. There is no such thing as a FUTURE or a PAST...We are amongst the ONENESS of a greater essence....PHYSICS proves the existence of a FIFTH FORCE, outside the known Law of Physics (wrap your head around that)..."Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter..." Levity abounds as per usual, but this was too much fun to wrap it up into just one single episode....Part TWO coming soon!
