Author: Monsters Lounge June 11, 2025 Duration: 1:17:25

In this special episode, we crack open a 1981 issue of the Weekly World News—the black-and-white tabloid that defined bizarre headlines and outrageous paranormal claims. Hosts Jeni Monroe and Tressa Slater review the wildest stories that had grocery store lines buzzing with guest Chachi. Was it satire? A secret truth? Or something stranger still? Join us as we separate fact from folklore and nostalgia from nightmare in this time-traveling dive into paranormal pulp history.

Hosts Jeni Monroe and Tressa Slater bring their genuine curiosity and infectious enthusiasm to every episode, creating a space that feels like a late-night chat with friends who happen to be obsessed with the world's oddest corners. This isn't about sensational headlines or quick scares; it's about diving deep into the rich tapestry of the paranormal, from the subtle whispers of a haunting to the grand mysteries of unidentified aerial phenomena. Each discussion in this podcast is built on a foundation of research and a shared sense of wonder, whether they're untangling the lore of a famous cryptid, examining a bizarre historical account, or debating the latest in alien encounter theories. You'll hear detailed explorations of Fortean phenomena-those events that defy conventional explanation-and the cultural impact these stories have on us. The tone is always respectful but never dry, allowing for both skepticism and open-minded speculation. By focusing on the human experience behind the mystery, Jeni and Tressa make even the most outlandish topic feel accessible and compelling.
