  The Monster Of New Orleans: The Disturbing Story Of Madame LaLaurie 26.10.2026 43m

  New Orleans is full of dark history, but few stories are as disturbing as the one behind the name Madame Delphine LaLaurie.Behind the doors of one of the city’s most infamous mansions, rumors of cruelty, torture, and unimaginable horrors would eventually expose a side of New Orleans society that was far darker than anyone wanted to believe. When a fire broke out at the LaLaurie mansion in 1834, what was discovered inside shocked the city and left behind a legacy of horror that continues to haunt the French Quarter.In this episode of Weekly Bizarre, we’re diving into the disturbing history of Madame LaLaurie, the events that made her infamous, and the chilling legends and ghost stories that still surround her name.But where does the documented history end, and where do the darker legends begin?Because some houses become famous for who lived in them. Others become infamous for what happened behind closed doors.And the LaLaurie mansion? Its darkest stories may never fully be known.Email:weeklybizarrepodcast@gmail.comSupport The Show:patreon.com/weeklybizarreSources:Love, Victoria Cosner, and Lorelei Shannon.

  There’s something unsettling about mirrors, especially when you’re standing in a dark room, staring at your own reflection, and suddenly becoming a little too aware of how strange it all is. You move, it moves. You blink, it blinks. But what if, just for a second, it didn’t?Tonight, we’re getting into creepy stories involving mirrors. The kind that make you question what someone really saw, what was standing behind them, and why a simple reflection can suddenly become something you don’t want to look at anymore.Maybe it’s the way a reflection can look almost human but still feel strangely unfamiliar. Maybe it’s the shadows lurking behind you, the way your face seems to change in the darkness, or the uncomfortable thought that you’re looking at yourself from the other side of the glass.Whatever it is, mirrors have a way of making the familiar feel wrong.So settle in, get comfortable, and join me in these creepy stories surrounding the glass we look into every single day.Because tonight, we’re not just looking in the mirror.We’re wondering what might be looking back.Stories:I don’t like mirrors:u/sapoconcho_Mirror Mirror on the wall, where in the f*ck has my reflection gone??:u/MandahrkMirror Mirror:u/Freebie_BuffetI never questioned why we had no mirrors in our house:u/TheOccasionalHunterBehind The Mirror:u/psyopticnerveBloody Mary is Real, and She's Extremely Dangerous:u/ByfelsDiscipleBloody Mary is Bloody Real:[deleted]Email:weeklybizarrepodcast@gmail.comSupport The Show:Patreon.com/weeklybizarre

  UFO Cover-Ups: The Presidents (Pt. 4) 13.09.2026 57m

  The final chapter is here.For our last episode in the Presidents & UFOs series, we’re bringing the story into the modern era — covering George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama.By now, you might think we’ve uncovered just about everything.We haven’t.From strange sightings and military encounters to government investigations, classified programs, whistleblowers, and the growing pressure for the truth about UFOs to finally come out, the closer we get to the present day, the stranger the story becomes.And then there’s the question that has haunted this entire series:Did these presidents actually know more than they were allowed to say?Was UFO secrecy simply about protecting national security… or was something much bigger being kept from the public?We’re separating the documented events from the theories, the witnesses from the rumors, and the facts from the things that make you sit back and say…"Wait… WHAT?”This is the final chapter.The last president.The last rabbit hole.And maybe the biggest question of all:What does the government know about UFOs that we still don’t?You wanted the truth. Let’s see how deep this goes.Email us:weeklybizarrepodcast@gmail.comSupport The Show:patreon.com/weeklybizarreSources:Holcombe, Larry. The Presidents and UFOs: A Secret History from FDR to Obama.

  UFO Cover-Ups: The Presidents (Pt.3) 06.09.2026 1h 20m

  Four presidents. Decades of UFO sightings. And a whole lot of questions that still don’t have answers.In Part 3 of our Presidents & UFOs series, we’re diving into Nixon, Ford, Carter, and Reagan—and some of the stories surrounding their administrations are downright bizarre.A mysterious object reportedly seen by a future president. Strange encounters that made their way into official records. Government insiders making shocking claims. And whispers of information that may have been kept far away from the public.But the biggest question is this:How much did the presidents actually know?Was the government hiding something? Were some of these encounters simply misunderstood… or was there something much bigger happening behind the scenes?And then there’s Reagan.Let’s just say… things get weird.Turn off the lights, grab your tin foil hat, and come down the rabbit hole with us.Email us:weeklybizarrepodcast@gmail.com Support the show:patreon.com/weeklybizarreSources:Holcombe, Larry. The Presidents and UFOs: A Secret History from FDR to Obama.

  The rabbit hole continues…In Part 2 of our Presidents & UFOs series, we’re diving into three administrations surrounded by some of the most intriguing UFO stories and conspiracy theories in American history: Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, and Lyndon B. Johnson.Did Eisenhower secretly meet with extraterrestrials? What really happened at Holloman Air Force Base? Why do conspiracy theories connect JFK to UFO disclosure—and even his assassination? And what happened at Malmstrom Air Force Base, where nuclear missiles mysteriously went offline while military personnel reported strange objects nearby?From alleged secret meetings and classified programs to UFO sightings, nuclear missile incidents, and presidential secrecy, these stories take us deeper into the question we’ve been asking since Part one.How much did the presidents actually know about UFOs?And remember… we’re still nowhere near the end.FDR and Truman were just the beginning.Email us:weeklybizarrepodcast@gmail.comSupport The Show:patreon.com/weeklybizarreSources:Holcombe, Larry. The Presidents and UFOs: A Secret History from FDR to Obama.

Roosevelt and Harry Truman.What was happening behind the scenes during WWII? What did the government allegedly know about strange objects in the sky? And why does Truman’s presidency become such a fascinating chapter in the history of UFO secrecy?We’re kicking off a journey through the presidents, one administration at a time, following the strange sightings, classified programs, alleged government cover-ups, and conspiracy theories that have fueled decades of UFO speculation.And this is only the beginning.FDR and Truman are up first… but there are a LOT more presidents to go. So buckle up, because we’re going all the way from FDR to Obama to see just how deep this rabbit hole goes.Email us: weeklybizarrepodcast@gmail.comSupport the show!
