    Learn More About The Live Fall Tour Tickets! INBOX OF ODDITIES #053– “Wall Wig & The Certified Bird Whisperer” 🕳️ Welcome to the weirdest corner of listener mail. In this jam-packed Inbox of Oddities episode, we crack open some of the most deliciously deranged, hilariously haunted, and poultry-psychic tales our Freak Fam has ever sent. ✨ This week: A shadowy tapping in the night reveals… a single chair in a secret crawlspace. A tuft of mysterious human hair erupts from an attic wall, sparking the birth of “Wall Wig.” We meet a man who once charged $20 to translate for live parakeets, and somehow had a waitlist. One couple’s romantic legacy is sealed in buttered toast and wet hair. A feline named Barbara Dolly sends psychic war movie signals through the ether. A ghost with a very specific hatred for Zoom meetings haunts one poor listener’s office décor. The cheese moon conspiracy is exposed (thanks, Uncle Spreadsheet). 🛸 Whether it’s paranormal plumbing, psychic poultry, or lunar dairy deprogramming—this episode’s got it all. Buckle up, Butterbutt. 🎙️ Listen now and remember: If your attic has hair, don’t poke it. Just burn the house. #ParanormalPodcast #BoxOfOddities #InboxOfOddities #TrueWeird #ListenerStories #ShadowPeople #GhostZoom #BirdMedium #CheeseMoonTruth #WallWig2025 #HauntedAF #StayWeirdFreakFam Learn more about your ad choices.

    Find out more about The Box of Oddities Live! In this delightfully disturbing episode of The Box of Oddities, we unearth two baffling tales that defy logic, science, and perhaps even basic hygiene. First, journey to the plague-ravaged town of Frankenstein (yes, it’s real), circa 1606. As bodies piled up and panic spread faster than a medieval TikTok trend, townspeople pointed their infected fingers at an unlikely culprit: the gravediggers. Accused of spreading the Black Death through dark rituals, corpse mutilation, and a suspicious over-enthusiasm for their work, several were executed—possibly to death. Were they scapegoats... or graveyard alchemists gone rogue? Then, leap ahead to 1997 and the eerie vanishing of Lori Bova. After a quiet dinner with her husband, she stepped outside and was never seen again. No signs of struggle. No trail to follow. Just a whisper on the wind and an open timeline full of conspiracy. Dark history meets vanishing acts in this episode of head-scratching proportions. #BoxOfOddities #HistoricalMystery #UnexplainedDisappearance #PlagueLore #CreepyPodcast #OddlyFascinating Learn more about your ad choices.

    Learn More About Box Of Oddities Live Show Tickets! A skull bequeathed to a favorite coworker. A traffic cone worshipped like a divine orange messiah. A wisdom tooth turned into fine jewelry. On this gloriously bizarre installment of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro dive deep into the wonderfully weird world of listener emails in an "Inbox of Oddities" episode that defies both logic and conventional estate planning. Mace kicks us off with a posthumous coworker gift plan that involves body farms, ring finger relics, and mandatory skull accessorizing. Then we take a detour through minty toothpaste tab evangelism, misheard Cream lyrics, cats with shared soul custody, and a town that literally canonized a traffic cone. Also: undead lawn geometry, Louisville BBQ diplomacy, and one listener’s heartwarming pants-half-on booty shake. You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, you’ll probably update your will. Whether you’re new to the pod or have been with us since the early tales of flaming bigfeet, this episode is a love letter to the oddballs, the outcasts, and everyone whose dad still tells that panda joke. #BoxOfOddities #TrueWeird #SkullGoals #CoworkerInheritancePlan #ToothEarringFashion #TrafficConeCult #InboxOfOddities #WeirdPodcast #CuriousCommunity #StayWeird Learn more about your ad choices.

    LIVE SHOW TICKETS HERE Did you know there was a time when trees never rotted? In this flaming-hot episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro unearth the ancient world’s most eco-unfriendly crisis: a time when dead trees just… stuck around, stacked up, and turned the whole planet into a pyromaniac's dream. Spoiler: it ends in fire. Lots of it. Then, travel back to 75 BCE, when a young Julius Caesar got kidnapped by pirates—and responded by being the pettiest hostage in history. Think Stockholm Syndrome in reverse. He laughed in their faces, demanded a higher ransom for himself, and then… well, let’s just say things didn’t end well for the pirates. From prehistoric firestorms to petty Roman revenge fantasies, this episode dives deep into the hilariously weird corners of science and history. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Cursed Life of Moll Dyer & the Tooth Fairy’s Bizarre Backstory In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro unearth the ghostly tale of Moll Dyer, the colonial-era outcast whose fiery legend scorched its way into Maryland folklore—and possibly left a permanent spiritual stain on a local boulder. Is her restless spirit still wandering the woods, or just really into dramatic exits? Then: we sink our teeth into the surprisingly twisted history of the Tooth Fairy—from Viking warriors hoarding baby teeth for luck to 20th-century parents bribing children like tiny, enamel-based mob bosses. Spoiler: There’s a weird amount of rodent worship involved. Two stories. One box. Zero dental plans.

    The Box Of Oddities Live Show Tickets Here! In this episode of The Box of Oddities, things get combustible—literally. First, we unravel the baffling tale of New Zealand's 1931 exploding pants epidemic, where farmers' trousers mysteriously burst into flames thanks to one very misunderstood chemical. Spoiler: it’s not spontaneous combustion, but it is hilarious. Then, we pivot from pants to valor with the jaw-dropping story of Desmond Doss, the WWII combat medic who charged into hell without a weapon—saving 75 men on Hacksaw Ridge armed only with courage and a whole lot of faith. Strap in for an explosive blend of history, mystery, and the wonderfully weird. From fiery farm fashion to a pacifist superhero, this episode delivers the kind of oddities you didn’t know you needed.
