The nursery rhymes we grew up singing might be a lot darker than we ever realized. In this episode, we dig into the eerie stories, strange theories, and unsettling origins behind some of the world's most famous nursery rhymes. From Humpty Dumpty and Three Blind Mice to Rock-a-Bye Baby, Ring Around the Rosie, and plenty more, we explore how these innocent childhood verses became surrounded by legends, folklore, and a whole lot of creepy speculation. You may never hear these rhymes the same way again.

This week we're taking a trip back to childhood... and realizing it was way creepier than we remembered. From strange TV shows that we probably had no business watching, to toys that seemed a little too alive, we're talking about all the things that gave us the creeps growing up. We dive into tv shows and movies that we were WAY to young to watch, but no one seemed to care! And they toys.. furry, tickle me Elmo, and owning the entire collection of goosebumps books at the mere age of like 10. We also reminisce about childhood places that felt a little off.

If you ever got nervous when a toy started talking by itself, stayed up all night after watching a spooky episode, or felt like the animatronics were staring directly into your soul, this episode is for you. Come relive the weird, creepy, and surprisingly unsettling side of growing up in the '90s and early 2000s.

Not everything is fun, and we're not afraid to say it. This week, we're diving into all the things we just don't enjoy. From small talk and baby showers to sporting events, crowded parks, and a whole pile of other oddly specific annoyances, we're airing our grievances and seeing how many unpopular opinions we have in common. Grab a drink and come complain with us.

Porch Talk is back and this one spirals beautifully. Do you ever have the problem when every terrible thing seems to happen all at once?? WE DO! Then we get into the school system, how technology is making kids less independent instead of smarter, and why it feels like common sense is slowly leaving the world. Wrapping the episode up with a true crime story that is genuinely awful. It’s chaotic, opinionated, slightly existential, and always all over the place.

Fairy tales were never really made for kids… and this week we’re proving it. We’re digging into the eerie world of Grimm fairy tales, the darker versions hidden behind the stories we grew up hearing, and why so many of them feel more cursed than comforting. It’s strange, creepy, violent, and honestly kind of fascinating that they took crazy morbid tales and turned them into stories that we now love.

This week we’re diving into all the things society changed without us even knowing. From the days of whispering on a cellphone in public like you were handling government secrets… to now hearing someone’s full FaceTime breakup in the cereal aisle. We’re talking about the weird shift in what used to be considered rude, normal, embarrassing, or completely unacceptable.

From feral restaurant kids and people blasting videos at full volume, to having full conversations via bluetooth very loudly in the grocery store parking lot, and the slow death of public shame… when exactly did everything change? Pull up a chair while we spiral through modern behavior, old social rules, and the little things that make us all internally scream in public.

Yep you read that right.. something that’s been misunderstood and twisted into something it’s not for a long time. In this episode, we dig into where it actually comes from, rooted in West African spiritual traditions and shaped by history, survival, and resilience.

We talk about the real practices, rituals, ancestors, and what those symbols actually mean, while separating truth from all the myths people have run with. How did something so deeply spiritual end up being seen as something dark or scary? And what does it actually look like for the people who practice it today?
