LilWeird Podcast: Uncovering Mysteries Beyond the Ordinary

Each week, we dive into uncanny tales, forgotten histories, and curious beliefs—from the Philippines and beyond. From mythical creatures and haunted legends to folk magic, superstitions, and conspiracies, LilWeird explores the weird and wonderful across cultures, timelines, and traditions.
What began as a journey into Filipino folklore has now grown into a wider quest to uncover stories that slip between reality and myth. We untangle strange histories, revisit ancestral knowledge, and follow mysteries wherever they lead with an open mind, a bit of skepticism, and a lot of curiosity.
🎙️ New episodes drop every Thursday.

17 JUL 2025 · Before GPS and smartphones, our ancestors turned to the stars.
In this episode of LilWeird, we travel back in time to explore how ancient cultures navigated oceans, tracked seasons, and wove myths into the fabric of the night sky. From the Polynesians’ star compasses and the Inuit’s arctic constellations, to the heliacal rising of Sirius in ancient Egypt. This episode is a love letter to the sky as our first compass, calendar, and cosmic storyteller.
We ask: What does it mean that so many of our oldest structures align with celestial events? Why do constellations carry such deep cultural symbolism, even when they don’t actually resemble their namesakes? And what can we learn about ourselves by looking up?
✨ Highlights in this episode:
- Mau Piailug and the legacy of Polynesian navigation
- Heliacal rising of Sirius and the Egyptian calendar
- Aboriginal “Emu in the Sky” and the power of negative space
- Why Orion didn’t always mean a hunter, and why that matters
🔭 Whether you're a sky-watcher, mythology buff, or just a curious soul, this episode invites you to see the stars a little differently.
✨ I also crafted something celestial just for you. Moon Notes, a dreamy manifestation journal inspired by episodes like this one. It's a gentle companion for setting intentions, journaling under the stars, and tuning back into the rhythms above.

10 JUL 2025 · The Moon glows softly above us. But have you ever wondered just how much she knows?
In this episode, we dive into the mysteries of Earth’s Moon, a celestial body that is far more than a floating rock in our sky. She's a clock, a mirror, a myth, and maybe most hauntingly, a watcher.
From ancient lunar goddesses and cosmic coincidences to strange scientific facts and secret symbolism, we explore:
☽ Why the Moon seems almost “perfectly placed” to affect tides, eclipses, and even myths
☽ Why cultures across the globe still follow lunar calendars for rituals, love, and loss
☽ How modern stories—like The Truman Show—echo the Moon’s role as an all-seeing eye
☽ And the question at the heart of it all: Who put the Moon there?
Whether you're here for science, superstition, or soft moonlit storytelling, this episode is for you.
If this episode stirred your imagination, or made you look up at the night sky a little differently, I’d love for you to stay connected with the LilWeird Universe. You can support the podcast, explore more moon-inspired magic, and help keep this space growing, glowing, and weird.
I also created something special for this episode: https://ko-fi.com/s/9c0238ee19, dreamy little guide to help you reflect, set intentions, and write under the phases of the moon. It’s available in the https://ko-fi.com/lilweirduniverse/shop, or you can get it for free when you send a tip (which I call a charm) or become a monthly subscriber.

From the Bakunawa’s shimmering, starlit scales to the seven moons it consumed, we’ll uncover the origins of this epic legend and its surprising connections to cultures across the globe.
