The Oddities & Curiosities Expo was back in Del Mar this weekend; what a fantastically dark, weird, and beautiful art show. Fans of the macabre have a lot to choose from, including sculptures, prints, clothing, pottery, dolls, candles, and more. Including taxidermy. Fair warning if you’re not okay with taxidermy, this show is very well
“Fenslaw.Coliss.Brate.Gilvane.Stond.” The latest episode of Night Vale before they went on hiatus (they’re always on hiatus in January and we will never remember that) was delightfully creepy in a way we didn’t see coming at all, what a fantastic surprise. We can’t say more, because spoilers. (This episode of VagueCast is brought to you by
Happy last-podcast-of-2023! Recorded on location in the wilds of Western Florida (aka our parents’ house) we start out this episode with a quick breakdown of Christmas, including successful hospital trips (spoilers: we were NOT stealing babies) and geeky presents, but it all goes by really fast because we’ve gotta talk about “Skibidi Toilet.” Seriously you

This week’s Night Vale episode is a perfect example of distilled weirdness, full of deadly nature walks, supermarket bonfires, and would you PLEASE stop PETTING THE WOLFMEN. GEORGE. After the recap we discuss the latest Doctor Who episodes: not that we’ve watched them but we’ve heard they’re doing well. (Other than one news article that
On this week’s Night Vale recap, the Museum of Natural History has made an amazing discovery, the Tomb of the Ancestors! Mummified remains in traditional Soft Meat Crowns ™ in a perfectly harmless limestone cube that just appeared in the Sand Wastes. Nevermind the floating apparitions that can melt your face off, it’s the scientific
The second season of Loki had its highs (that fourth episode good googaly moogaly) and lows (the bonkers pacing, that weird hot chocolate scene) and for a while there we were worried the series might go out with a thud instead of a bang. But in the end they brought together all the threads and
Fall is well and truly here, and all we want to do is curl up with a scary movie or TV show, which is why we were delighted to get an episode like Loki season two, episode four. Never mind our quibbles about the bonkers pacing, clunky dialogue, and stupid hot chocolate; we got a
