  • Clinton Road and Franklinstein w/Greg Stone
    30 Oct 2026
    In this episode, we talk with Bloomfield native and comedian Greg Stone. We asked him to buckle up for a story about Clinton Road. He did a lot of research... on Annie's Road. This led to a wild ride of an episode that follows Greg's energy down a ridiculous number of rabbit holes. Perhaps most importantly of all, he tells us about FRANKLINSTEIN, a monster sighted in Franklin Lakes and definitely not something he made up on the spot because he is an unpredictable mad man. Thanks to Skeebop & Sons (Keith Haskel and Bethany Hall) for production, Andrea Quinn for audio production, and John Cozz for music.

  • Abandoned Mental Hospitals w/Kate Nichols
    26 Oct 2026
    In this episode we discuss one of New Jersey's favorite past times: illegally entering abandoned mental hospitals. We hear from someone who had some bone chilling experiences at a facility known to generations of Jersey teens simply as the infamous "Skillman". We are joined by Kate Nichols, who is not just a hilarious comedian, not just a Maplewood native, but also a licensed clinical social worker who can speak to the reality of mental hospitals and what in the human psyche leads us to want to explore them. Thank you to Skeebop & Sons (Ketih Haskel and Bethany Hall) for production, Andrea Quinn for audio production, and John Cozz (johncozz.bandcamp.com) for the music.
