Description

In 1962 a thin wire cord snaps aboard an ocean liner and whips across the deck bisecting the passengers and crew. Fast forward 40 years and Julianna Margulies goes in to...wait, hold on. That's just the plot to the movie Ghost Ship. This week we look into a WW2 era ghost BLIMP. Where did the crew go? Was foul play afoot? Were ALIENS involved?!?! We ask those questions and some that are even less relevant as we investigate the mystery of the Ghost Blimp this week. Plus, Andy and Art from Mr. Bunker's Conspiracy Time Podcast join in on the shenanigans, the fellas discuss the pros and cons of eating at a Ponderosa, and John finally earns that "shill check" he's been working on. All of that and more on the podcast that’s never seen a blimp crash, but we watch a certain podcast do it on a weekly basis - Hysteria 51.

Hysteria 51 is a weekly podcast that takes an every-man approach to the World of the Weird - UFOs, Aliens, Mysteries, Conspiracies, the Paranormal, the Unusual, and the Unexplained. Hosts Brent Hand, David Flora, and Conspiracy Bot (a cranky robot bent on world domination who also happens to be the show’s head researcher) examine a different topic each week and generally come to one conclusion…the truth is out there, but you won’t find it here.
