    WHAT'S WEIRD THIS WINTER ROUND UP-Mangione, Drones/Plasmoids, Polarization, Captagon, The Occult Roots of TV, & Guess That Fetish!
    Dec 22 2024
    Here's what people are saying about "The Kooks, Cranks, & Iconoclasts Podcast"! "WTF are you talking about? What is that?" -Pope Francis "It's a subtle mix of poignant insight, fiendishly clever dialogue, an unmitigated retardation!" -Marjorie Taylor Green "(Kooks, Cranks, & Iconoclasts") is cheeky, ribald, and highly problematic!" -Podcaster's Weekly In this highly "polarizing" W.W.T.W.? roundup, we're catching up on the two biggest news stories of the last few weeks, those being "drones" (if that's indeed what they are) and "that whole Mangione Situation". Not only that but we also cover 2024's word of the year: "polarization", the fall of the Assad regime bringing to light the production of mass quantities of the drug "Captagon", the occult roots of television & some of the intersections between technology & spiritualism, & then we close out with an impromptu game of "The Fetish Guessing Game of Problematic Paraphilias" (and it's not the only impromptu unwholesomeness this episode as Chris & Spencer spring a game of "Show & Tell" on Mike... & it's awful. ) This episode may appeal to those who are fans of old school Howard Stern & FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, PLEASE! If you're one of our relatives...maybe sit this one out. The secret word for the week is (made up!): "PLUTOPHAGES!" EAT THE RICH! YOU KNOW YOU HUNGRY!

    Dec 18 2024

    WAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZAAAAAAAA(*achem!*)AAP! Because there's just so damn much Manson related craziness, we're kicking out this bonus one-point-fiver episode to help clear our info overflowing coffers, for you, our listeners & subscribers in the grip of morbid curiosity! You guys are great and you keep us going, so THANKS A ZILLION! IT'S A REAL NUMBER! MAYBE? Anyways this joint covers the rest of the Manson Family's weird connections to groups like The Process Church of The Final Judgement or The Kirke Order of Dog Blood...wuzzah? Not only that but we'll get into some of Charlie's Beatles related numerology responsible for influencing the "Helter Skelter" mythos! It's both mindblowing & yet supremely stupefying at the same time. CRAM IT IN YO' HEAD Y'ALL!

This is also the first in what may be a reoccurring series of "Under 1 Hour Crash Courses" as I try to not only improve my brain's random knowledge quotient but also the finer points in the black arts of broadcasting and/or content production. Hope you dig it! Let me know what you think! Leave a comment! Praise me! (Or dis me...but offered forth in the form of constructive criticism please & thank you!)
