Wicked Planet

Wicked Planet is a broad, unruly interview show about the parts of culture that feel hidden, haunted, rigged, or simply strange. Its center of gravity is suspicion. Episodes move through conspiracy claims, paranormal field reports, true-crime speculation, liberty politics, cryptids, alleged abduction memories, scripture, and hands-on police K9 work. The show is casual, but it is rarely small. A discussion with Mark at My Family Thinks I'm Crazy follows Epstein-related emails, estate-planning language, and theories about secret-society initiation. A paranormal episode with Lone Star Paranormal Research gets practical about EVP recorders, phone microphones, an old western-town location, and the possibility that spirits might follow investigators from building to building. A Liberty Squawks crossover brings in Andrew Treglia to talk about Jones Plantation and Barnum World. Other episodes lean hard into unsettled territory: Idaho murder theories, crypto and cartel connections, Bigfoot encounters in Florida, infrasound, telepathy, and claims of a broader hive-mind phenomenon. Karin Wilkinson's episode turns toward alleged abduction, missing pregnancies, near-death experiences, scripture, and the loneliness of people who believe they have lived through the same pattern. The police K9 episode is a useful counterweight. PI Bill and Lou Ferland explain that police dogs are far more often search tools than action-movie weapons, with noses used for luggage, packages, lockers, and vulnerable missing people. That practical detail gives the show some ballast. Wicked Planet still prefers the edge of the map. Its pacing is conversational and sometimes messy, with jokes, asides, production chatter, and abrupt turns left in the room. Ron from New England is the recurring presence who keeps the door open for guests, leads, stories, and strange evidence. The show works best for listeners who enjoy fringe subjects presented as live conversation rather than cleanly packaged conclusions.
