    I like the episode where the last story isn’t for -5 year olds.😵🗻

    Runway to start your day!
    With all the news, true crime, and opinions on opinions, this is just fun! It's something you can listen with the kids in the car, but also can also give you quirky things to bring up with your friends.

  • W Kate Roberts
    Just plain fun
    I subscribe to many Aaron Manke shows but this one may be my favorite. A nice break from true crime.

    Great Podcast
    This is my kids’ favorite podcast. I enjoy listening too. It’s fun and interesting.
  • RiverBattleboots
    So very weird!
    The reason I give it 4 stars is because each podcasts topics are not all related… That is what I would love to improve. Also, I wish they came out more often! Other than that, I love the stories! TY!

    So fun
    Another wonderful podcast by Aaron and the Grim and Mild team.

    If your kid is a little weird and a lot nerdy….
    I binged this podcast while doing housework and really liked it. It was a nice break from true crime. I played about 10 minutes of one episode for my 9 year old daughter, and she was immediately hooked. It’s now essential for driving back and forth to swim practice and/or waiting in the drop off line at school. I’ve never seen someone so excited to hear about Finneas Gage but she loves it. She also found a “murder documentary for kids” the other day but I’m the one who’s raising her so….

    Quirky & Family Friendly

    Just wish it didn’t have that cheesy green logo
    It’s a fun podcast. But man, it’s logo is gaudy.
  • Love the podcast!!!!!!!!!!
    Love it
    It is so cool

    That’s Just Weird
    The show is NOT about weird things we normally associate as weird. The show makes us aware of ordinary people who are caught up in circumstances that are unexpected and outcomes that some might call bizarre. History has taught us that what we may believe about people and what they are capable of doing is not always true. The host is brilliant in how he delivers the story and makes us wonder what might have really happened.

    Great!
    A lot of these things are so weird, but it keeps me listening! I no longer have to put up with my siblings on road trips. Its a life saver!
  • Melidawna
    Highly recommend
    Fun, intelligent, lighthearted and interesting. We need more content like this in podcasts, and I would definitely write this one as top notch.

    My kids love it
    I follow Jared and Ben Padalecki on Insta and they gave this podcast a shoutout. I played it for my kids and they are now OBSESSED. Thank you for giving me a few minutes of quiet in the car on long road trips! Make the episodes faster! (And longer! ha!). Great show, well done and we learned something new each time! My kids love the animal stuff (Otters stealing surf boards?!) Keep it up!
  • GhostBattling
    Awesome!
    If you’re a fan of all things weird, you must check this new podcast out! Just like Aaron’s other podcasts, and shows, it’s well done, informational, and on point. Can’t wait for more!
  • The ms girl
    That’s just weird
    Hey Arron love your videos Soo much but the only problem is your podcasts need to be longer
  • Aceofschrades
    Love it, but…
    I love this podcast and everything Aaron does. The only problem with it is…it’s not long enough! Keep ‘em coming Aaron! And by the way, hi!
  • Comixboy
    FUN
    It’s a surprisingly simple podcast that is FUN and informative. It’s quirky and enjoyable. The best part, it’s like a news blast without the trauma of dealing with the news. Great job folks! Keep up the good work!
  • App is all sizzle no steak
    This podcast is my kind of podcast
    But unfortunately whomever is writing the episode names and descriptions is doing it no favors. Create a descriptive compelling title and summary. I’m skipping it until I see something other than “episode 1;” But I’ll check back because I love weird stuff.
  • MrAwesome3245
    Cool!
    I love this podcast!
  • T4678_thiscantalsobetaken
    Love the podcast!
    Just listening now and really enjoying all the weird, mysterious facts! Lots of fun, and also making me want to go researching some of these!
  • FarmVoy1979
    Great
    This is great. I’m glad that he has made one that isn’t so dark. I really enjoy this one and Cabinet of curiosities I love anything odd and weird.
  • Hotrods340
    Good 1st half.. rehashed 2nd half.
    So the first half is good. News stories that you may have missed with a little detail. If you listen to the other podcast by this group you will see rehashing of things from curiosity and lore.
  • Latho717
    A light hearted treat
    This is a delightful show with novel information and a steady pace. I listen to a lot of heavy science news shows, and this show is like the dessert.
  • yourfavoriterichie
    Everything from Aaron Mahnke is amazing!
    Can’t wait for this!!!
  • MotoDestructo
    Hi.
    Can’t wait for this, always quality from Grim and Mild
  • sweetcountry girl
    The best narrator EVER….
    There isn’t too many people who are better narrators than Aaron. I would listen to him read almost anything.
  • Bluefinkillie
    Copycat?
    There already a podcast called “Thats Just Weird” Weird right? Not sure the name even fits- you’re a write Aaron, couldn’t you think of something else? I sub to both your podcasts but dang, this just seems off.
  • The ADD Kid
    Saying hi.
    Subscribing and saying hi.
  • Md237
    Aaron…
    Is such an excellent narrator and I would listen to him reading a phone book if that was all that was available!
  • LaCarlos
    I’m IN.
    Subscribed and cannot wait! Aaron is enough to make me check anything out and this sounds like it’s gonna be a blast as well as educational and surprising. YES!!
  • cjl2441
    Like most things Mahnke does…
    Expect this to be lackluster and subpar
