This is the 2nd of it's kind in Batty Fang years', Transmission 2. Conversations not planned for a BFP episode but captured within the confines of Bridget the Goblin's realm of weirdness and oddities abound. 

In This Transmission:

Paragem sits down with Mayhem on Écoutez la Radio (WAUG fm - Augustana College, Rock Island, Illinois). We had a slew of song selections in the original broadcast but thought to play it safe for this transmission and omit them -- with one very important exception:  Wretch by Bloodeater (RADIO DEBUT). This not-yet-released song is the 2nd to be shared by Bloodeater (Old School Death Metal) from the Quad Cities. Enjoy this rusty treat between the conversation and comradery.

For Episode 11, Tales from the Crypt-ids, we will jump into the edge of the rabbit hole that is Cryptids. What started as research for a general episode on the topic led to Paragem’s first official cryptid investigation. From the pages in Reddit to trampling along through the woods with strangers, join in on the journey! There will definitely be more to this story as a documentary is in the works.

The intent is to get you thinking about all of the creatures out there we have yet to discover. Have you had an encounter with a cryptid? Is there one lurking in your backyard? There could be! They seem to hide so well on the fringes of what’s in sight in everyday life.

In Episode 10, Forgotten By Design, I talk about Paragem’s trip to the Peoria State Hospital -- a visit that opens the door to a deeper conversation about asylums and sanitoriums, poor farms and the women whose lives were shaped by coverture laws. 

If you’ve never heard of a poor farm, this is a good place to jump in. These were institutions where families, communities  and counties placed people they didn’t know how -- or weren’t equipped -- to care for. Many were elderly, disabled, mentally ill or simply inconvenient in a system with few safeguards. 

This episode explores the people who lived there, the systems that confined them and why so many were quietly erased from history -- not by accident, but by design.

IT’S HALLOWEEN, Y’ALL! 🎃 I’ve thawed out and I’m back to celebrate All Hallows’ Eve with a little something I’m calling weirdo travel. Basically, it’s how to plan trips full of strange sights or turn an ordinary trip into a weird adventure.

If you're drawn to the unexplained, paranormal and all things wonderfully odd, you're in the right place. Here we will dive deep into topics that aren't...
Batty Fang Podcast is hosted by me, Bridget (aka Bridget the Goblin). I co-hosted the pod Spellbound Salem Radio for over three years (currently on hiatus) and launched this adventure for my love of all things different outside of Salem. I am a paranormal investigator with over 5 years of experience, a certified oddball, lover of antiques (aka 'junkin'), and an aficionado of the bizarre. When I'm not out exploring haunted locations or searching for hidden treasures at antique shops, I'm deep-diving into the unusual stories that captivate the mind and stir the spirit.

Most episodes feature a guest with unique insights into their realm of the weird, joining me as we go down the rabbit hole to uncover the unknown. Whether it's supernatural encounters, peculiar professions, or simply the things that go bump in the night, I’m here to bring you curious tales, fascinating interviews, and a touch of goblin mischief. So, grab a seat and get ready for some strange company. This is a place where the unusual is celebrated, and the paranormal is just another day at the office.

Welcome to another intriguing episode of the Batty Fang Podcast! I am joined by the captivating Jessica (of Paragem) in an exploration titled "Beyond the Dark." In this episode, we delve deep into the fascinating realms of dark versus light, challenging the conventional notion that all things dark are inherently evil.

Jessica and I engaged in conversation that goes beyond stereotypes and explores the nuanced aspects of darkness. From the shadows of our own perceptions to the beauty found in the mysterious, "Beyond the Dark" takes a closer look at how darkness doesn't always equate to malevolence.

Join us as we navigate through the realms of shadow work (original and modern definitions), dieties and demons, mentioning hidden truths about the dichotomy between good and evil. Tune into BFP and open your mind into the mysteries that like Beyond the Dark; a conversation that invites you to embrace the complexity that exists in every shade.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/58406048Mon, 22 Jan 2024 16:24:37 +0000Bridget the GoblinGreetings, you extraordinary beings, misfits, mystical mavens, and peculiar wanderers!
