Summary

Live Fall Tour Information! Inbox of Oddities: Hands, Spirits, and Shoes Full of Baileys This week, your favorite weird mailbag is overflowing. From mysterious body parts masquerading as “1920s décor” to ghosts who fold your jeans into swans, our listeners bring the oddities straight to our inbox—and we read them all. Hear the heartwarming tales of pets, plants, and fellow freaks connecting across the globe, like a listener in Berlin who calls JG her safety voice and a Texan discovering that Baileys and flip-flops are not a perfect mix. We dive into dreams of tropical disappearances, 4H champions with freaky talents, and the strange yet delicious snacks of yesteryear. Plus, we get a peek at haunted laundry habits, haunted hearts, and the obsessive kindness of four-legged friends saved from terrible odds. By the end, you’ll laugh, gasp, and maybe even wonder if your own house—or shoes—are hiding secrets you’ve yet to discover. Tune in for another wild, heartwarming, and totally unpredictable trip through the weirdness our listeners live—and dream—through every day. Learn more about your ad choices.
