| 6/26/26 | ![]() The Dodleston Messages: The Computer That Answered From 1546? - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E26 | Ken, Debbie, and Nicola thought Meadow Cottage was just an old house that needed work. Then six-toed footprints appeared going up a freshly painted wall, objects started stacking themselves into impossible shapes, cold spots moved through rooms like something solid, and a BBC Micro computer began receiving strange files no one remembered creating. The messages claimed to come from a man named Lucas, living centuries earlier in the same place. But once Lucas began testing Ken just as much as Ken was testing him, the case shifted from a haunting to something stranger, a possible conversation across time, with another presence watching from the year 2109. | 1h 32m 07s | ||||||
| 6/19/26 | ![]() The Scole Experiment: Did They Record Proof of the Afterlife? - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E25 | In this episode of Deceptive Reality, Bert and Nick dig into the Scole Experiment, a paranormal case from 1990s England where a small group allegedly produced physical evidence during controlled seance sessions. The claims get weird fast, from intelligent lights moving through the room, to voices heard by witnesses, to objects appearing, sealed film showing strange images, and a connected radio experiment that may have captured clear voices from beyond. The big question is not just whether the Scole case is real. It is whether the old paranormal field may have been testing something modern ghost hunting forgot how to measure. | 1h 40m 03s | ||||||

| 2/13/26 | ![]() Numbers Stations, the Antarctic Voice, and the Signal That Wont Die - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E7 | If youve ever scanned shortwave radio at night and heard a calm voice reading numbers, you already know how unsettling it feels. And the creepiest part is, its not an urban legend. Its real, and its still happening. In this episode, Bert and Nick dive into the mystery of numbers stations, strange shortwave broadcasts that repeat tones, numbers, and phrases with no station ID and no explanation. They break down the skeptic theories, hoaxes, hobbyists, and oddball utility signals, then move into the theory most people quietly suspect, coded messages meant for someone with the missing key. Then Nick shares a chilling story set deep in Antarctica, where a research station begins hearing a voice that seems to come through the equipment itself, not the radio. The message changes, the entire station hears it, and then one of the scientists is simply gone. Even the alleged recording vanishes, leaving only fragments and testimony. They wrap with fringe theory, ghost radio ideas, and why radio survives in every apocalypse story. Plus a surprise tangent into Alf lore, because of course it ends up there. | 1h 12m 05s | ||||||
| 2/6/26 | ![]() The Funeral Home 911 Call, and the Answering Machine Message That Shouldnt Exist - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E6 | A funeral home. A silent 911 call. No break-in. No people. And yet the call is logged and responded to. This episode goes deep into the strange category of paranormal communication, where the signal becomes the doorway. Bert and Nick break down a creepy case in southern Colorado where a late-night abandoned 911 call leads police to a locked funeral home on cemetery property, with no sign anyone was inside. They explore how something could trigger a call without a physical source, and why certain places feel like they would be the perfect storm for this kind of phenomenon. From there, the conversation expands into other infamous phone call accounts. An answering machine message that appeared with no incoming call count. A voice recognized as a deceased family member. A call that shows up on the phone, but the phone company cant find any source for it. They talk about old landlines, older recording tech, radio frequencies, and why older devices sometimes feel more vulnerable to interference that cant be explained. The episode wraps with the usual chaos and collectibles, including a messy slime unboxing and a classic horror pull. Because nothing says haunted signals like smelling toxic slime at the end of the night. | 1h 31m 54s | ||||||
| 1/30/26 | ![]() The Terror Expedition Mystery, and the Ship That Shouldnt Have Been There - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E5 | This episode is a perfect storm of history, mystery, and how did that happen moments. Bert and Nick open with real-life talk about winter storms and how brutal snow can be, then jump into a doomsday clock update thats closer to midnight than ever before. The conversation turns into how fast things have shifted, and why people feel like the world is sliding the wrong direction. Then Nick drops a wild discovery from deep history. The oldest known cave paintings were pushed back dramatically, and the strangest detail is the handprints, long and claw-like, not the normal human hand outlines seen in other caves. They talk about what that could mean, and why ancient history keeps revealing things that don’t fit the neat timeline people expect. Finally, they dive into the terrifying real-world expedition that inspired The Terror. Two ships vanish in the Arctic for 165 years. When the wrecks are finally found, theyre discovered in a place that feels almost impossible, tied to a name that was chosen randomly decades earlier. Then the local stories make it even stranger, a silent ship, a grinning man below deck, and haunted islands that people refused to approach. | 55m 14s | ||||||
| 1/23/26 | ![]() The Mushroom Mystery Where Everyone Sees the Same Little People - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E4 | Magic mushrooms, little people sightings, and a repeatable laser experiment that claims to show hidden code, this episode goes full high-strangeness. Bert and Nick kick off with a hilarious behind-the-scenes moment and then jump into a real-world oddity, Bert finds unreleased horror blind boxes at Target, tries to buy them, and the employee refuses because they are not even in the system yet. That one detail makes the mystery feel even weirder. From there, the conversation turns into the mushroom story that has been popping up everywhere. A specific mushroom is linked to reports where people claim they all see the same thing, tiny humanoid beings like gnomes, elves, or little people, going about their business like you are not even there. Then it gets even stranger with the DMT laser experiment claim, where multiple people reportedly see the same code in a laser beam. If thats repeatable, what does it mean for perception and reality? They close out with dimensional theory, storms and paranormal activity, and the usual chaos, including Stranger Things pulls and a Vecna repeat. | 1h 03m 53s | ||||||
| 1/17/26 | ![]() The Hat Man, Interdimensional Sight, and the Shadow We Caught on Camera - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E3 | Why do so many people report seeing the same shadow figure, a tall man in a wide brim hat, just standing there watching? And why does it show up in stories across decades, families, and locations? In this episode, Bert and Nick dive into the Hat Man phenomenon and the broader world of shadow people. Nick shares his own experience from a basement apartment in New York, plus the strange patterns that seem to connect Hat Man sightings with sleep paralysis and other high stress states. Bert brings in something even creepier, his moms dated journal entries documenting paranormal events from the late 90s, including a night where both of his parents saw a tall shadow figure with a hat outside near their trellis. The detail and the timing makes it hard to dismiss as just imagination. From there, the conversation expands into interdimensional theories, the idea of other senses that pick up things our normal vision misses, and why sometimes a camera catches what your eyes never saw, and other times its the opposite. They also revisit eerie moments from their investigations where sound was heard clearly in one place but not captured in another. The episode wraps with collectibles, including a rare Stranger Things chase figure pull, because nothing says interdimensional planes like a demogorgon showing up in red. | 1h 11m 02s | ||||||
| 1/9/26 | ![]() The Face Peelers of Peru, and the Stranger Things Episode That Might Not Be the End - Deceptive Reality Podcast S4E2 | This episode goes from pop culture conspiracy to genuinely chilling real-world stories, and it all somehow ties back to the same question, where does consciousness go when time stops making sense? Bert and Nick start with Stranger Things and a fan conspiracy that refuses to die. The theory claims the finale was not the real finale, and that a secret episode could drop later. They break down the clues fans are pointing to, including repeating sevens, visual inconsistencies, hidden signs, and the idea that the characters may still be trapped in an illusion. Spoiler warning, if you have not watched it yet, skip ahead. Then the conversation turns into something much heavier, the mystery of anesthesia and why it wipes time completely. They discuss near-death experience cases where minutes feel like days, plus dream states where people feel like they lived years in a single night. Finally, Bert shares one of the most disturbing stories he has ever covered, the face peelers of Peru. A young girl reports being grabbed by armored figures on hovering boards, chemically restrained, and nearly cut with surgical precision before villagers intervene. The story is tied to decades of local reports and multiple cases that sound too consistent to ignore. | 1h 11m 29s | ||||||
