Trailer Trash Terrors

Can a simple geometric model help uncover the secrets of the universe, spacetime, the human mind, consciousness, meaning, work, purpose, and truth? This weeks guest, Abbie, has spent 23 years trying to answer that exact question. Vic Hermanson tries to help her bring her knowledge and discoveries to the world, and throws in a few weird ideas of his own.

This week is all about Biblical monsters, and a goal that Vic Hermanson, your host, failed to achieve, even after years of effort. It's a new video episode with almost all of the flaws worked out. Have you ever thought of what a Horse-Leech might really be? Tune in to find out! Oh, Boudreaux is off on vacation, taking the Bladerunner tour off the Shoulder of Orion!

In this episode, Vic Hermanson continues on the path of making TTT a fully video show...please watch the video and let me know what you think. It's improving. Mercy Brown, who was called Lena by her family was a 19 year old girl who died of tuberculosis in 1892, in Exeter, Rhode Island. Her life was almost totally unremarkable. After her death, she became the focus of a very strange legend...essentially that of a vampire with no vampires involved. In standard TTT methodology this episode also touches on schizophrenia, leprosy, rabies, human hopelessness, and the behavior of desperate people, and desperate populations. Oh, I almost forgot...Puppy Pregnancy Syndrome is also addressed. Believe me, it's an interesting ride.

This episode marks the triumphant return of AJ Grabosky! But tonight, neanderthal-like sasquatches are not the subject. Instead, AJ is discussing, in great depth, the hidden history of the ancient Americas, the copper from Michigan that brought about the bronze age, and the new-world travels of the Phoenicians, who were masters of the oceans, the Minoans, who were incredibly advanced architects, and the Celts, who, according to AJ, travelled all the way to Alberta. All of these travellers left substantial evidence behind. These are fascinating mysteries, told by a deeply powerful and thorough mind. It's three hours of historical wonder!

This is an odd episode. First, in the TTT world, it is short. Second, it was spawned by an email I received that caused me to rethink some things. Third, Boudreaux steps outside of his normal snarky persona to wax philosophic for a few minutes. The video is getting better! It's actually quite a bit of fun. Resolve is awesome!

Vic Hermanson has decided it's time to relax a bit. So, he enlisted the help of his friend Roddy Frey to delve deeply into the world of good, bad, and ugly monster movies, both new and ancient. Roddy truly knows his stuff! This episode does not require you to dive into cosmology or bone up on your calculus skills. Al you have to do is sit back and take in the monster goodness!

This is the first TTT episode in quite a while. This is Vic Hermanson, and I'm looking to make the flow of shows more reliable. This episode is about an important idea: that the entire universe is built upon a substrate, or a foundation, or substrate of information. I'm presenting an extended review of the book "It From Us," by Ryan kralik. I believe Ryan has created an important book, just at a time when the world truly needs fresh ideas. Of course, I've included lots of TTT strangeness, unusual rabbit-holes, and disembodied consciousness gang fun. Here's the Amazon link to the book I discuss in this episode.…

This is episode 142 of the Trailer rash Terrors podcast. 1968. "The Mall" just outside Louisville, Kentucky. A young boy accompanying his dad to work for a few days. Those few days, which should have been boring turned into a great cryptozoological adventure! It was the ORIGINAL Minnesota Iceman in all its odiferous glory!

This is episode 141 of Trailer Trash Terrors. It's all about Cannibalism...which is a broader and more fascinating topic than I ever imagined. In fact, the topic is so broad that one episode of reasonable length is nowhere near enough time to fully cover everything that needs to be discussed. So, consider this a starter pack. At least one other episode, perhaps two will be required to discuss everything that needs to be covered. But still, I think it's a fun, but serious episode covering Cannibalism in Movies, "A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift (rad expertly by Annabelle Lee!), and, believe it or not, Cannibalism in an old comic book titled "Tales Too Terrible To Tell"! The link below takes you to a Dropbox folder where you can find some of the research materials I used for this episode, including a scan of the comic book story. Warning: There is a small amount of explicit content in this episode. It was needed to tell the story. Enjoy!…

TTT is back on the air, with a show that has what is probably the simplest title that Vic Hermanson has ever used. Have you heard the term, "Spark of God"? This episode delves deep into that idea with original fiction, discussion of weighing the soul, the genuine spark that occurs at conception, and much more. Plus, The Disembodied Consciousness Gang makes it very clear that Vic Hermanson is truly "made out of a lot of dumbass"!

This is the VERY FIRST video episode of Trailer Trash Terrors! Of course, Vic Hermanson is still learning how to make a podcast in video...it will get better. Tonight, Vic Has a deep and rather amazing conversation with Father Joshua Birdsong and Davis Griffith. They discuss personality changes after near death experiences and other trauma, artificial Earth-orbiting objects found on photographic plates from the 1940's, and much, much more. Also Annabelle Lee recounts her history!

Trailer Trash Terrors has been "dormant" for a long time. This episode explains why, offers some apologies, and goes back in time to a damn scary old house just outside the woods in Mugwamp. That house had a "Thing."

In episode 137 of the Trailer Trash Terrors, Vic Hermanson does his very best to bring a unique TTT twist to the Jonestown massacre tragedy. If you think you know the whole story, I can almost guarantee that you are wrong! You won't know the whole story after this podcast either, but you'll be closer, and perhaps you'll have some insight you didn't have before. Please contact the podcast, and it's creator at TrailerTrashTerrors@gmail.com. This story cannot be fully told without using at least some explicit content (profanity,) especially in some of the speeches and sermons of Jim Jones. Linked below, this is the world's most complete archive of research material concerning Jim Jones and Jonestown. It's days and days of new knowledge and discoveries. https://jonestown.sdsu.edu/

Chris James, host of the Strange Things With Chris James podcast, returns to TTT to talk about a rarely heard moon landing conspiracy theory. I've never heard this particular theory...when it comes to NASA, that's hard to do. Plus, we bounce around to a number of USDA Grade A Hermanson / James Rabbit Holes. You will enjoy! PS: Here's the Black Slimy Goat Grabber! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zABUkK1V6j8

I screwed up. I used a section of a Pink Floyd song that I thought fell under the protection of fair use. Spotify disagreed, so I had to replace 22.7 seconds of "Keep Talking." So,I've fixed it with a cool little composition out of Smart Sound. What's the show about? Hey, it's a Rundown from the Gang of Nerds! It's about "dis, dat, and de uder thing!" How about giving it a go! Here's the original description: It's another fully accelerated, pedal to the metal PARANORMAL RUNDOWN, jointly produced by Trailer Trash Terrors and Southern Demonology! This time Dave, JJ, and Vic have a guest, and not just any old guest! Father Michael Birdsong brings his deep theological and historical knowledge to the rundown. It's the the most ambitious episode of Trailer Trash terrors yet, and truly a good time. Tell your family! Tell your friends! Tell strangers on the street! The Paranormal Rundown has returned!

In Episode 135, Vic Hermanson disusses,along with Dave Griffith,the whole idea of "Lost Stories." Over the Years,there have been many stories he has read and loved, but then "lost" the title and the author's name. But the stories are still there in all their glory! Perhaps you can help him out, or add some "lost stories" of your own. If you leave a comment here, please email it to TTT also so I can respond.

Trailer Trash Terrors returns with a story of one man's experience during the Death March of Bataan in 1942, told as well as Vic Hermanson can remember it. It's a story of true-terror, where the paranormal aspect of it was overshadowed by the terror that standard flesh and blood men could bring. Oh, and Boudreaux gets the title wrong. Hey, he's out of practive too!

In episode 133 of TTT, Vic Hermanson addresses several realities: (1) God does not usually speak to us, or at least him. But, sometimes, God makes it clear as to what he is supposed to do. (2) The podcast is part one of three talking about his vert "chaotic" walk with God. But, there are some fun things to talk about along the way...glossolalia, emergency bible reading...lots of things. Write to us at TrailerTrashTerrors@gmail.com

Trailer Trash Terrors is back again, with episode 132. Where do you feel yourself to exist in your body? That was the question that would not leave me alone, or let me sleep. Heidegger called that (I think... Heidegger is pretty tough!) the "Dasein," If you have an OOBE, what is your "point of origin," and "point of return"? Come and delve into the very best of Trailer Trash Philosophy with Vic Hermanson as he does a solo episode.

Episode 131 of Trailer trash Terror delves into the movie "Nandor Fodor and the Talking Mongoose." I, Vic Hermanson say it's a great movie, that does a fantastic job of making Gef, the famous talking mongoose to life, and also does a great job of asking some important philosophical question about the world of the paranormal, the minds of men, and the mysteries that bring wonder to the world. Gef was one weird little dude.

Trailer Trash Terrors is back!!! This is episode 130, where we learn about Full Colonel of the German Democratic Republic (or East Germany), a brilliant man who told me the story of the Soviet "Werwolves," that were used, according to him to prevent escapes from the rural areas of the GDR. Then Dave Griffith, paranormal investigator extraordinaire, takes a short trip with me into the real om necromancy. Annabell Lee closes out the show!

In episode 129 of the Trailer trash Terrors podcast, Vic Hermanson continues his extended email interview with Elizabeth, the Nebuchad Symbiont Vampire that is approaching 1000 years of age. She sees Houdini in 1916. You learn how she disposes of a body per day! You learn her full name, and much, much more. If you would like to join the TTT Discord Server, which is every bit as weird as the podcast, perhaps more, here is an invitation link! https://discord.gg/8enbRMHh

In episode 128 of the Trailer Trash Terrors podcast, Vic Hermanson delves into some of the thought processes he explored in the growth and evolution of the Elizabeth the Vampire character. Father Michael Birdsong, Deacon Josh Birdsong, Dave Griffith (paranormal investigator) delve deep into what might happen if a vampire, that HAD to kill humans to survive, were to approach an ordained priest to see if absolution, through confession, were possible. But as usual, we delve into multiple peripheral concepts.

In what I am numbering episode 127 of the Trailer Trash Terrors podcast, I, Vic Hermanson, bring you an entirely new story-arc for Elizabeth, the 480 year old vampire first presented to the world by Dr. Stephen Kaplan in 1984, in the book "Vampires Are." It seems she has gone silent all these years. In a totally fictional, but carefully researched episode, I explore what a new correspondence stream with Elizabeth might be like. She's changed since 1984: she's stronger, both more human, and less human, and her understanding of the world is no longer stuck in the 17th century. I've worked on this version of Elizabeth more than long enough to know, love, and yes, even fear her. i think it's worth you time to listen. With this episode, which is a bit experimental, I would greatly appreciate feedback from you, the listeners. This is part one of two, of the new Elizabeth saga.

In episode 126, we meet Marilyn Hudson, the Paranormal Librarian. She talks with Vic Hermanson about a book that seems to occupy a place of "ontological superposition," both existing and not existing at the same time. The supposed book, "Oltissis: Ancient Greek Gods and Lore Revisited," by Federico Iaonnides, (one of several possible spellings) has occupied Vic Hermanson's quite limited mind for years! It may or may not have been published, in France, in 1962. A copy of it may or may not have been purchased in a public library by Ted Connors, security expert, around 2010. It may or may not have been confiscated by Homeland Security or a similar governmental agency in 2011. It may or may not have been related to the "dragonfly drones" that were seen in many parts of the world about that time, frequently discussed by Art Bell. Those drones may or may not have been information gather devices sent to Earth by the "Oltissians." Plus, Annabelle Lee reads what I'll call the "Declaration of Oltissis," and…

For this one, you will definitely need a comfy chair, some popcorn, and to plan on a bio-break or two. In episode 125 of TTT, Vic Hermanson gives Brad free reign to talk about his genuine belief in the Flat Earth "conjecture" to his heart's content. He does so with aplomb! Brad is neither a troll, nor a Poe...he's an honest, articulate man, who has deeply studied his position. Plus, throw in a little standard Trailer Trash Terrors weirdness, an appearance by Annabelle Lee, Some crocodiles (of course,) a Mugwamp story or two, and it's a fun time for all!

I'll call this episode 124-A. It's the first, and I hope, only political episode of Trailer Trash Terrors. Sometimes a man just can't be silent.

Episode 124 of the Trailer Trash Terrors episode is a genuine work of passion. I started off as an episode about Guillotines, then I shifted to discussing Billy George Hughes, a man who killed my cousin, State Trooper Mark Allan Frederick in 1976. Over time, and actually in a logical fashion, I get back the Guillotine, in all of it's lore and gory wonder. You'll hear the real story of Languille, direct from the original newspaper article. Plus, you get to hear Beelzebubba be a cheerleader. He's the best! Oh, and I almost forgot, I do a qui a quick review of the classic novel, "My First Head Transplant." I'm still one week behind, but I'm catching up. The Murderpedia Page about Billy George Hughes and the murder of State Trooper Murder of Mark Allan Frederick: https://murderpedia.org/male.H/h1/hughes-billy-george.htm

In episode 123 of the Trailer Trash Terrors podcast, I give the reigns for most of the show to Father Michael Birdsong. He talks with Tracie Bush about Gifts of the Spirit. Tracie recounts multiple fascinating stories about her life, including an actual physical miracle.

In episode 122 of the Trailer Trash Terrors podcast, Vic Hermanson is joined by Father Michael Birdsong, as well as Deacon Josh Birdsong. This one covers a lot! The Sith, The Code of the Sith, discernment of spirits, the sins of the father, The infancy gospel of Thomas, and Gifts of the spirit. Father Birdsong uses the phrase "Kingdom Stuff," as he talks about the striving of mankind to be fully part of the Kingdom of God. That includes, learning to understand the paranormal.

Hi. Vic Hermanson here. Episode 121 of the Trailer trash Terrors podcast features Tracie Bush, host of the "In The Dark: Dogmen, Bigfoot, and All Things Supernatural" podcast. Tracie has not only talked to dozens of guests with astounding paranormal experiences, she has had a great many herself. It was an an honor interviewing her. You'll find her experiences, and her understanding of the world to be profound, thought provoking, and very entertaining.

In episode 120, Vic Hermanson discusses his recent diagnosis of being "autistic," at least to a certain degree, and discusses how people with that diagnosis tend to interact with the paranormal world.

In episode 119 of the Trailer Trash Terrors podcast, Vic Hermanson returns to the theme of invisibility, using the Ambrose Bierce story "The Damned Thing" as a jumping off point. Of course, the Lawrence Livermore invisible bigfoot has to be thrown in for good measure! He ends with a little Devil's Dictionary, also by Ambrose Bierce. Here's the Project Gutenberg link to "The Devil's Dictionary."

Episode 118 is the fifth and final episode of the Trailer Trash Terrors Monster Chronicles. It's a panel discussion with Vic, JJ Johnson, Father Birdsong, Chris James, and Dave Griffith, paranormal investigator extraordinaire. We do the best we can to define the essential characteristics of monsters, and, as usual, fail miserably! Or maybe you'll disagree! We also talk about the aspect of evil being a part of "monsterhood," and finally, we have some fun talking about the dreaded, and clearly evil Nephilim- Ewok hybrid.

Episode 117 is the fourth segment of the Trailer Trash Terrors Monster Chronicles. Of course it's weird...but I don't think it disappoints. We have Newt from Alien, Sadaam the chimp, genetically engineered chimps, the SLAM nuclear plane, Spring-heeled Jack, The Partridge Creek Monster, the Kandahar Giant, and a new hypothesis about "Homo Sanguinas," a naturally evolved type of vampire. Oh...that's more than six! My bad. Plus, Boudreaux gets some hate mail! Here's a link to a peer reviewed paper about the mathematics of vampires and human "coexisting." chrome-extension://efaidnbmnnnibpcajpcglclefindmkaj/https://www.m-hikari.com/ams/ams-2013/ams-9-12-2013/strielkowskiAMS9-12-2013.pdf Here's the YouTube link to "Grave Robbing for Morons.' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWFosb98Kec&t=671s

In episode 116 of The Trailer Trash Terrors podcast, Vic Hermanson joins forces with the amazing and eclectic mind of JJ Johnson, host of Southern Demonology, and a true expert on Japanese monsters...the Yokai. It's always fascinating to hear the thoughts of a mind like JJ's!

In episode 115 of the Trailer Trash Terrors podcast, Vic Hermanson tries to create categories of monsters, and delves into the mental processes common to those monsters with 46 chromosomes. He goes back in time to revisit those monster movies that first warped his mind. "The Monster Chronicles" series is growing, and will now probably be four episodes.

In episode 114 of TTT, Vic Hermanson is 100 percent, laser focused on monsters, which is actually his favorite topic. He talks about Carl, a patient that many nurses thought was a human-ape hybrid. He talks about Teratomas, which genuinely can look monstrous. He talks about the man-eating tree of Madagascar, plus much, much more. Then, as he often does, he gets all philosophical and tries to figure out what a monster is. Does he succeed? Listen and find out!

This is the first TTT Tidbit episode in a long time. You get to meet Acadia, a feminine cyberintelligence programmed by Boudreaux to give him an occasional "freaking break"! And, I tell you all about the Willowampus! It was pie-bald, the size and general shape of a large wolf, had feathers on the back part of its body and huge wings! Nobody has seen it since 1916...but that does not mean its gone!

In episode 112, I'm joined by Dave Griffith to talk about whether or not Daniel Dunglas home cold have won the James Randi Educational Foundation Paranormal Challenge. I personally don't think anyone can win the challenge, even if they levitate elephants on stage while juggling nuclear weapons and doing a Lady Gaga impersonation. Here's Boudreaux's intro to give you the full story: Greetings temporal humans. This is Boudreaux, the nebulo-chaotic, cybernetic ghost from the future. I like that word, that adjective of the week, nebulo-chaotic c. That clearly describes my state of being for this episode. It means hazy and confused. Even if that is the case, it is my job to welcome you to episode 112 of the trailer Trash Terrors Podcast. In this episode, Vic joins forces with Dave Griffith, and they take a long, albeit entertaining drunkard’s walk through total solar eclipses, Kung Fury, Godzilla X Kong, Krell metal Giant ape cybernetic arms, Ancient astronomers, the Carrot myth, Daniel Dunglas Home, and the…

It took 111 episodes of TTT, but finally, I'm publishing a rant episode. What's it about? Scientists, philosophers, savants, and jugglers are still arguing about that, and may be doing so for many years. Well, it's distantly, about an Australian flat Earther whom I'm calling Huck Goodpasture. That's a great name, huh! We never get to the flat Earth part...at least not in this episode. I also talk civil discourse, or the current lack thereof, unusually large male genitalia, dying alone, being hospitalized during the time of Covid, and how deeply I love stories. Plus we get the unique perspective of Father Michael Birdsong, host of the Ending the Curse podcast. It should be a good time for all! Additionally, this episode is robot and disembodied consciousness free! They'll be back next week.

In episode 110 of the Trailer Trash Terrors podcast, I am joined by JJ Johnson, host of "Southern" Demonology, and briefly by Father Michael Birdsong, host of "Ending the Curse." We start off talking about the deeply interesting SCP foundation, move to the nature of language, people who base ther identities on fiction. Plus, in a world-first, Beelzebubba sings The Philosophers Song, by Monty Python!

Episode 109 of the Trailer Trash Terrors podcast gives you the latest info on the great Captain Kangaroo scandal, the "Inner Earth," and amazing journalist from the past, J. Francyl Howard, and Mrs. McClendoRodrigoStein to tell all the young ladies anticipating holy matrimony how to sexually tame their future husbands.

Episode 108 is the continuation of Vic Hermanson's hospital stories. You'll hear of the cockroach man, the gangster's shoes, a truly severe case of Munchausen syndrome, Being "invisible," doll's teeth, and two stories of when sex goes really wrong. There is explicit content in this show, if that sort of thing bothers you.

In episode 107, Vic Hermanson presents five stories from his time as an ED, ICU, Surgical, and Medical-Surgical nurse. Some are about the imperfection of all people, some are about truly frightening patients, and some are about the way that humans develop, and maintain hope in even the most difficult circumstances. Part one of three. Sensitive subjects are discussed in this episode.

In episode 106 of the Trailer Trash Terrors podcast, Vic has the one and only Chris James, host of the "Strange Things with Chris James" podcast as his guest. The conversation ranges to how Chris James got started in podcasting, to white creatures under bridges, border patrol pranks, the ubiquitous Laredo girl-child ghost, to the first plane ever used in the US military, and much-much more. There really are VERY few guests who can speak on as many topics as Chris James.

Episode 105 brings us Chris and Dean of The Wandering Road Podcast. They are superlative thinkers, speakers, and students of the paranormal. Have you ever wondered how many people might actually be non-playable characters? How many people have EVER lived? Why religion changes as technology advances? Listen and find out! This week's introduction by request, is made by Beelzebubba, our resident former minion of evil.

In episode 104 of TTT, we hear the astounding story of Tracey, who as a child was protected by benevolent and steadfast apparitions, as she grew in a chaotic and abusive household, outside of Glasgow, Scotland. It's an amazing story. In part two of this episode we talk about Patience Worth Wee Curran, as child who was adopted through the urging of the original Patience Worth, a 17th century English weaver. It's also an amazing story.

Episode 103 of Trailer Trash Terrors has two guests, both talking about Dowsing. Dave Griffith talks about the use of dowsing in treasure hunting, and how not all dowsers can detect the same things. George Anthony talks about Dowsing as a type of divination, and how St. Helena, the mother of Emperor Constantine used a type of dowsing to find the true cross. Plus, we have lots of other hijinks sprinkled about!

In episode 102 of Trailer Trash Terrors, we see the return of Paranormal Will. He talks about the personal cost of engaging with the paranormal, which can be quite high. He discusses what can only be classified as a deliberate, paranormal attack. Also, Wilbur, the ethereal pest control expert reads a 1976 newspaper article about the "Philip Experiment." Here's a link to a quite well done documentary about Philip, that was made in 1974. https://youtu.be/tSFkxkrSM9o?si=iwWwde9HfshGJjIv
