Welcome to Two Guys, What’s Up?
Join Iain and Jordan every Monday as they explore the weird, the wonderful, and the downright unexplainable. From haunted houses to UFOs to the strangest corners of the internet, it’s part comedy, mostly chaos, and entirely questionable. Whether you’re a skeptic or a full-blown tinfoil-hat wearer, you’ll laugh, learn, and probably lose faith in reality.
Follow Two Guys, What’s Up? wherever you get your podcasts! Because normal’s overrated.

We hope you are all having an amazing Christmas Day!
You’re probably wondering why we’re here. Well, we couldn’t leave you to cook your Christmas dinner while listening to old episodes of the show (as you do), so we figured we’d just give you something new to fill your ears while you prepare your sprouts.
It’s a spooky little tail of when the actual devil did a little visit to England! So, nothing short of spectacular. But what else would you expect for the big day?
Enjoy! And merry Christmas, happy holidays and, whatever you’re celebrating, we hope you have a fantastic day!

This week we’re bringing the festive spirit with a bizarre sting of aerial phenomena. Sounds and sightings that all started on Christmas Day of 1964. What was it? Well, they just called it a “thing” - Jordan on the other hand? He called it everything else under the sun!
And then Jordan brings us some shower thoughts — but not the kind you’d expect! These ones are more of the paranormal kind. The kind that keep you awake because they make you think and they’re spooky as hell!

Today we’re on a double-dose of the weird. Iain kicks things off with some real, reportedly true accounts of people who’ve actually seen the Grim Reaper. But is he a genuine entity out there doing the rounds, or did we humans make him up!? Did we just will him into existence, accidentally manifesting a spooky cloaked skeleton who pops by when your time’s up?
Then Jordan gives us a trip down a delightful little rabbit hole, all about people who can supposedly smell illnesses. Apparently, Iain’s one of them! But is this a real thing? Can some people genuinely sniff out disease? Can you do it? Come give me a sniff will ya? NHS waiting lists are massive!

Welcome to a special episode! You read that title correctly; following on from the October live show, we’ve got Paul back for a full 1-on-1 (well… 2-on-1) interview. He tried to get away, but Iain’s legs were longer. So please enjoy our open, funny, and genuinely fascinating chat with unexplained researcher and experiencer Paul Sinclair.

Today we’re finishing up Iain’s eight-part series of intertwined mystical madness by heading to another spooky mountain! Expect similar vibes but totally different stories from the BENNINGTON TRIANGLE!
Then Jordan tells us some cool things people have done to automate their life! (And a really helpful shortcut including three L’s - always helpful for when you need a laughing face emoji.) But he tells us about NFC tags, iPhone shortcuts and all the ways people have made their lives easier.

Today we’re starting at the most famous mountain in mysticism: Mount Shasta! The Californian mountain that’s apparently part spiritual vortex, part alien airport, and part interdimensional Wi-Fi hotspot. Over the years, this snow-capped peak has hosted everything from Lemurians to UFOs, among much, much more…
Then Jordan gives us a much-welcomed public service announcement on how to NOT fall victim to common scams. The ones designed to pull at your heartstrings, make you think you’re getting a bargain, and drain your bank account all the while! But fear not! Jordan has all the secret details on how to avoid falling for them, and it’s all in this week’s episode.

Today we’ve got two stories at opposite ends of the spectrum; the first of a guy who won’t die, and five others who reveal their biggest secrets as they reach their final moments!
Iain first tells of the legend of Count Saint Germain, the mysterious 18th-century figure who baffled Europe by never seeming to age, claiming he’d mastered every skill under the sun while performing tricks and wowing royalty. Was he a time traveller? An ascended master? Or just the world’s most committed liar!?
Meanwhile, Jordan takes us on a tour of some horrible purportedly true deathbed confessions. From people admitting to life-shattering secrets they’d held onto all their lives, to one bloke who swore he’d been the real D. B. Cooper! And it’s all coming at you (get ready; click play when I say this)… noooooooow!

Welcome back! Today, we’re talking about people who like to do… not very much. But while the person that Iain tells us about was asleep, he use to do things like hand out cures and predict the future! It’s the story of Edgar Casey, aka the Sleeping Prophet! Was he really spouting sleep truths? Or was he just dream-speaking a load of nonsense? You decide!
And then Jordan gives us the internet’s most lazy people and their worst admissions. It’s a compilation of those who, I’m sure, also like to sleep, but did not do things like tell the future. They did things like break up with their partners because they couldn’t be bothered washing or texting daily. Quite the contrast! And it’s all coming up in today’s episode!

Today we’re finishing up in North Yorkshire, in the quaint village of Hutton-le-Hole. Don’t let the name fool you—this place may or may not have been home to tales of ghosts, UFOs, fairy tricks, and all manner of high strangeness. It’s a village where the weird and wonderful come out to play. And it’s just in time if you ask me. Happy Halloween! Have a spooky night, don’t let the aliens bite, and we’ll see you Monday.

Today we’re going back to old-timey Scotland for the bizarre case of the Glenluce Poltergeist. Stones thrown, food spoiled, it was a mug graveyard! And unseen hands tearing through a poor tailor’s home. Was this one of Britain’s earliest documented hauntings? Seems so.

Today’s Halloween countdown tale takes us to early 1800s Tennessee, where the Bell family was tormented by an invisible force that scratched, shouted, and swore it would kill the head of the household. This is the chilling legend of the Bell Witch.

Welcome back! One day closer to Halloween and another bite size bit of creepy. Today we’re heading to the small town of Van Meter, Iowa. For one terrifying week, townsfolk swore they were being stalked by a winged creature with a glowing horn on its head. Was it a monster? If not, what exactly did they shoot at!?

Hello! While you may be shocked to see a second upload today, fear not—it was intentional! For the next five days we’ll be bringing you a new spooky tale, each from a different corner of the paranormal, to get you in the mood for Halloween.
In today’s bite-sized Halloween episode, we’re talking about one of the most famous alien abduction stories of all time—the case of Travis Walton. Back in 1975, he vanished in Arizona for five days after a supposed close encounter with a UFO. But was it a genuine abduction? Or just a hoax that spiralled way out of hand? You decide! We’ll see you tomorrow for more spooks!
See you tomorrow.

Which Halloween Creeper Are You Quiz
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Welcome! Today we’re going deep! (Take that however you please.) First Iain takes us through a history of Theosophy; from its beginnings, through its rise, and all the scandal that came with it.
Jordan then tells us some of the stranger mating habits from some of the most awful animals to ever grace our delightful little space rock.

Greetings, fellow Fifth Foot Race-rs! Today Iain brings us the tail of ANOTHER lost continent (I know, I know, it’s the last one, we swear!) but this time it’s the story of the egg-laying knowledge-seeders known as the Lemurians! The supposed ancient-er than Atlantis race that now hide out in mountains, waiting for us to ascend enough to give us all the answers we so sorely need.
Jordan then fills us in on some stories of when people (even people who were suppose to be smart) were so adamant they were right, but in reality they were WRONG! Like one guy who thought that we “completed” science - but it was just getting started!

Today we’re covering a classic! But not in the way you’re expecting. Atlantis! Was there really an advanced landmass that sunk beneath the waves, damned by gods for its arrogance and greed? Or was it just Plato’s very fancy way of saying “don’t be a git”? For centuries people have been trying to prove it was real and everyone’s convinced they’ve cracked it. So grab your snorkel and your scepticism, because we’re swimming into one of the deepest mysteries on Earth.
Jordan then does what he does best - makes Iain look stupid. And today, he’s doing it in the form of a quiz! But not just any quiz, it’s a ten-question bonanza, all starting with the simple question: “What came first?” From cookies to crosswords, we guarantee you’ve never heard these before. So play along, shout at your phone, and make sure you let us know how you did against the mediocre brain of Iain.

Here on this podcast, we’ve said it before, and today we’re saying it again: sometimes people go missing. This time, we’re looking specifically at the unfortunate people who’ve been unlucky enough to experience the Missing 411 phenomenon! From those who disappeared and returned with strange stories, to those who vanished and never came back.
And then Jordan brings us a list of people who got so angry that their brains just stopped working, leading them to blurt out the daftest sentences, completely defusing the situation and making themselves look just a little bit silly in the process.

Well, summer is sadly officially over - but that doesn’t mean the party has to stop! Here at TGWU headquarters, we believe the party should never end so to help us ease into autumn, we’ve re-invited our pal James, host of The Fortean News Podcast, to bring us some creepiness, both local and personal! But that’s not all; Iain has a selection of cursed objects for us to sink our teeth into, and Jordan rounds things off with a paranormal quiz for James (and Iain) called “Paranormal or Poppycock?”. So put your knowledge to the test against him, and let us know your score before you also check out James’ show. Here’s to a spooky autumn!
Get your tickets here to come see our VERY FIRST LIVE SHOW as we get to chat so some of the most prominent names in the local paranormal field.
