This week we talk to Lee “Birdshot” Kilpatrick, wandering musician & sideshow performer. Birdshot shares stories of life on the road with professional freaks and clowns as well as growing up in “white trash heap Mississippi,” and just how he got the name “Birdshot.”
Talk about a weird life! It’s like running away and joining the circus, if the circus was all sideshow! Lee is a natural born entertainer.
(Parental Advisory on this one too.) All that and more on this week’s episode of the WHAT’S YER WEIRD STORY? Podcast.

This week, we are joined by Eastern North Carolina native Shaun Crawford. Like many of us, Shaun and his buddies had a curious and adventurous nature in his youth. He also grew up in a small town, boiling over with boredom.
To fight the boredom, Shaun and his friends would take up the mission to track down some local urban legends and ghost stories of the surrounding area in that last-minute-let’s-go-do-something-because-we are-bored teenager mindset. Hilarity ensues.
Haunted Houses, ghost trains, and Acid Park, plus Russian face altering AI and Storming Area 51. All that and more in this week’s episode of the WHAT’S YER WEIRD STORY? Podcast.

We take a break from our regularly scheduled weirdness for our Father’s Day tribute episode. Jeff, Barry & Adam share some of their favorite memories of their dads: Dennis, Curt & Jerry. Like all good dads, ours have given us some great & more often hilarious stories to share. Barry’s sister Brooke joins in on the storytelling too, because Barry’s dad has too many tales tobe told by just one person. Plus, a brief discussion of a recent FBI Bigfoot disclosure story.
