Inbox Of Oddities #95

The Freak Family has been busy.

This week on Inbox of Oddities, Kat and JG crack open the listener mailbag and discover a funeral urn that can preserve the voice of the person inside it, a legendary Texas rock that may have swallowed a man whole, and the deeply unfortunate mystery of a toilet seat that suddenly developed a perfect blue butt print.

Then there’s a possible Boo Effect at one of America’s strangest museums, the surprisingly fascinating history of the Brannock Device, a road trip tradition involving the Uranus Fudge Factory, and the only beach in America where you can apparently land an airplane—as long as the tide cooperates.

Plus, a Freak Family member shares a wonderfully funny near-final line from her mother-in-law, we revisit the weird phenomenon of nipple sadness, and discover that The Box of Oddities has apparently been used as homeschool curriculum. Which feels both flattering and possibly irresponsible.

Listener stories, strange coincidences, weird history, questionable business names, and proof that the Freak Family may be even stranger than Kat and JG.

Keep flying that freak flag.
