  • THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER-"MINOTAUR MACGUFFIN"
    2024/09/07
    HEYYOOO! What's up everybody? This week things are gonna get dark as we examine the infamously UNSOLVED "Black Dahlia" murder mystery! We'll try our best to get to know the victim, Elizabeth Short (or "Betty", as she liked to be called) & try to dispel many of the awful rumors and misinformation about her that have spread since her gruesome death. We'll take a look at the looooong list of suspects, both usual and unusual. We'll examine some of the theories as well as why they may or may not be close to the truth, while paying extra attention to what is currently the most popularly accepted & highly lucrative *cough[BULLSHIT!]cough* narrative behind the murder. Finally, we'll take a quick peek into the inextricably linked & extremely dysfunctional Hodel family, as we rummage through the many skeletons in their collective closets. ALL THIS PLUS AN ALL NEW "WHAT'S WEIRD THIS WEEK?" Get yourself some latex gloves and put a dab of vapo-rub under your nose as the fellas delve into the infamously... STILL UNSOLVED..."BLACK DAHLIA" MURDER MYSTERY! (OH! And of course we'll be throwing out a few theories & ideas of our own, so be sure to stick around to the end!) Email us!: kooksandcranks@gmail.com *Opening/closing theme: "Ghost Town" by Aves, also featuring: "Wrong Side of the Tracks" (instrumental version) by Artifacts, theme song from "Family Ties", as well as "In The Mood" by The Glenn Miller Band *"W.W.T.W.?"

  • QUANTUM COMPUTING-"YES IT'S AMAZING...BUT CAN YOU MAKES THE SEX AT IT?"
    2024/08/29

    THREE MEN & A NASTY! This week we invite a special guest and old school regular "Kooks & Cranks" fixture, Matt a.k.a. "Mr. Nasty", as he joins the fellas to discuss the various potential dreamscapes and/or nightmare worlds presented by the advent of ubiquitous massive scale quantum computation (that is, if such a thing is even truly achievable). Tune in and listen to four increasingly inebriated individuals attempts to break down some super scientifical type shit! All this plus an all new "What's Weird This Week?" featuring therapy parrots, the unimpeachable integrity of Mark Zuckerberg, UK gravy wrestling, a nicotine addicted lake monster, & more! ALL OF OUR CALCULATIONS HAVE PROVEN THIS SHOW TO BE... OBJECTIVELY AAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWESOME!

    Opening theme: "Ghost Town" by Aves, also ft. instrumental music from "Tiffany Sequence" by Riz Ortolani, "B.O.B.B.Y." by The RZA, "Quando, Quando, Quando" by Englebert Humperdinck, "Back In The High Life Again" by Steve Winwood for some reason, & finally an excerpt from that "starspangly bummer" song as well.

  • Minisode-"Red Devil Disco CERN Inferno!"
    2024/08/22

    HEYYOOO! What's up ya beautiful kooks! This week we're doing a mini-episode (or "minisode", if you're trying to "S.T." {that's "Save Time"}) due to the Chris household being over run with COVID-20. It's one more cuz he does everything TO THE MAX! Hopefully we'll be back to our full roster next week, along with a special guest! So this week we'll be sort of cleaning house with an extended version of "What's Weird This Week?" in which Mike & Spencer cover a vast haphazard array of strange subjects, such as: lil' red devils, the "demon cat" of D.C., another far less fortunate cat, plus a random grab bag of wacky CERN related apeshit! We'll cover all this AND! provide answers to questions no one asked like: "What happens to Mike's voice after screaming at the internet all day?" or "Can Spencer achieve a triple entendre?" and of course finally,

    "Does Chris REALLY have COVID, or is he currently trying to find his way back home after being abandoned in the NJ Pine Barrens?" LISTEN & FIND OUT ALL ABOUTSITS!

    Opening closing theme: "Ghost Town" by Aves, also ft. "In The Pines" by Leadbelly, "Spooky" (instrumental version) by Dusty Springfield
