Something Smaller Than Fear

On this ice-cold episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys kick things off by talking about the bitter winter weather gripping north-central Texas before diving headfirst into absolute madness.

The first episode of 2026 begins quietly enough, with the boys reflecting on the long holiday nights and the strange sense of time that comes with the turning of the year. But before long, familiar territory gives way to something far more unsettling. This episode descends into the shadows with reports of a possible goblin sighting, a chilling Sasquatch encounter from the backwoods of Oklahoma, the restless ghost said to stalk the shores of Pawleys Island, South Carolina, and a forgotten maritime account in which a Spanish galleon is allegedly attacked by creatures pulled straight from legend—mermaids.All of this and more on this episode of Expanded Perspectives!Sponsors: IQBAR: Right now, IQBAR is offering our special podcast listeners 20% off all IQBAR products, plus get FREE shipping.

On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, Kyle is solo in Skelekin Studios and ready to chase the strange. A listener opens the show with a childhood memory from their grandparents home in Oregon, a moment that still feels out of place in the real world. After the break, Kyle turns to the Cash-Landrum incident in Huffman, Texas, where two women and a young boy stumbled onto a blazing, diamond shaped object on a dark road. The heat, the hovering craft, the sudden arrival of unmarked helicopters. The story has never fit neatly into any box. Was it something from another world or a military project the public was never meant to see? Later, an eyewitness in Illinois reports a gargoyle perched in a tree, watching in silence.

On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, Kyle kicks things off with his undying love for every kind of water you can imagine. Cam is packing up and heading to Kansas for a deer hunt, and the guys talk a bit about that before the break. After the break, Kyle shifts the mood with a set of strange and unsettling Shadow Being encounters. What are these figures, and what do they want? One of the cases comes from Dan J of Barstow, California, who had a frightening run-in with two eerie entities back in early 2011. Those figures match what many in the paranormal world call Shadow People. The Official Shadow People Archives describes them as dark silhouettes that often look human but carry no clear features. Some wear what look like hats or hoods. Some appear solid while others drift like smoke. Some float from the waist up. Others sprint out of sight with visible legs. They slip into corners, walls, closets, behind TVs, or vanish into the night. The only trait they all share is an almost impossibly deep darkness. All of that and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives.

In this episode of Expanded Perspectives, Kyle and Cam dig into the chilling stories of alien abductions, missing time, and the lasting—and sometimes deadly—effects these encounters have on those who claim to experience them.

In this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys kick things off with Kyle realizing he may have jinxed his favorite hockey team after bragging about their undefeated streak on the last Elite show. From there, things take a darker turn with a few chilling stories guaranteed to set the mood. After the break, it’s all about Dogman sightings—what exactly are people seeing out there? Are these encounters truly increasing, or are more people simply finding the courage to speak up? Could the Dogman be a demon in disguise, a Skinwalker, or something even more sinister?

On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, Kyle is flying solo in Skelekin Studios — but don’t worry, the strange and the unexplained are still on the way. First up, a story from Southern California: a man hears heavy footsteps crossing his garage roof in the dead of night. When he shines his flashlight upward, he comes face to face with a towering, red-eyed figure — something that’s definitely not human. Then we jump back to August 1975, when three kids in Davenport, Iowa, watched a massive, winged creature shimmer into view before vanishing into the night sky. After the break, Kyle shares a few tales of nature striking back — when animals turn the tables in unexpected ways. All that and more, coming up on Expanded Perspectives.
