This episode is dedicated to one of my best friends, Keaton Daniel Rousse, who was taken from us way too soon.

There is a link for his wife's GoFundMe in the sources section of this description... (go to 3:49 To skip memorial)

What happens after we die? In today's episode, Dan and Katie discuss 3 near-death experiences, one of which comes from Dan's personal experience,

only to almost slip away again on the operating table.

One story is of a woman in 2024 who had an ovarian cyst rupture overnight. She describes wandering through the cosmos to get back to her limp body.

Then Dan tells his story of nearly dying while using a synthetic marijuana called space (also known as K2 or Spice) at the age of 17.

The last story is of a woman who nearly died while having thyroid surgery. She saw a bright light, a Christ-like figure, and was left scarred by the experience.

We also take a quick overview of the 5 leading world religions and what they believe happens at death.

About 30 minutes was cut for time, which will be available on Patreon as the final Sept upload.

Ed Gein was one of the most infamous American killers, his crimes were so gruesome and horrific that they became the real-life inspiration for horror movies like Psycho, Silence of the Lambs, and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

In 1957, searching for missing hardware store owner Bernice Worden, police in Plainfield, Wisconsin, came across one of the most disturbing crime scenes in modern history, cementing Ed Gein's legacy as a grotesque, terrifying monster.

In part 1 of this series, we introduced you to the strange, sad, and abusive childhood of Ed Gein, his domineering mother Augusta, alcoholic father George, and older brother Henry. That set the scene for part 2, where we get into his actual crimes, the grave robbing, the skin suit, and so many more disturbing facts.

Quick update from the 2 cats network, everything coming back online soon :) Did some living, some upgrades to the studio, and taking a less online approach to a very online program.

2 Cats Network spooling up over the next calendar week! But THIS podcast isn't coming back until later this summer/early fall (maybe sooner if by popular demand/special episodes in the meantime).

In this exciting 2-part series, take a deeper look into Ed Gein, the butcher of Plainfield, Wisconsin. Originally from La Crosse, the Gein family fled to an isolated, 195-acre farm in the country to escape the sins and depravity of the big city. Augusta raised Ed and Henrey with an iron fist, keeping them in constant fear of God and his wrath, and women, whom she considered sinful. From Ed's birth to the death of his mother, learn all about the man who inspired Psycho, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and The Silence of the Lambs.

While a little shorter than normal and missing one person, this could be an instant classic. We packed a lot of great information in and shared some dark laughs. Part 2 will be just as detailed and much more graphic.

In this AUDIO ONLY episode, listen to the Boys get into some of the most famous haunted Michigan locations. Such as: The Eloise Assylum, Mackinac Island, The Bruce Mansion, and the Bay City Antique Center!

Audio was a bit scrappy, along with not having video, it's due to a corruption issue we had with the files, so sorry about that! I cleaned it up and made it listenable, because it was such a fun episode and very reminiscent of our "season 1" episodes!

Enjoy :)

And don't forget to check out our Patreon! There are 46 exclusive episodes.

In this hour-long series finale, the boys take you through an alien planet, Planet Serpo. It took 2 decades of planning, rigorous training, and 2 episodes to get here.

Pick back up where we left off, with the team of 11 landing on the alien planet and trying to adapt to its people and cultures.

Let us know if you want more series like this down below!

And don't forget to check out PATREON, which has close to 50 exclusive episodes, or Dan's Planet (YouTube) which is quickly becoming the network's flagship!

In this wild part 2 (of 3) series on the Journey to Planet Serpo, the boys rewind a bit to Roswell, 1947, to unlock the secrets of the EBEN language. We only translated under half of their language, so the exchange was a long and difficult process. Then we catch back up to the brave 12 souls as they traverse the stars on their way to Planet Serpo.

Next week, we will pick back up with their experience on the planet itself, as well as the journey back home...for some of them.

AND ITS APRIL, we are reminding everyone to leave a like, comment, sub, check out the patreon, we have 45 private episodes, with a planet serpo 1.5 dropping today with this!

PS, we were a little hot on mic, quality will be even better next week :)

This week, take a break from the gore with a truly fascinating and POSSIBLY true tale of Planet Serpo, the alien/human exchange program!

The boys get into the background, the mission, and the 12 people (military only) assigned to represent the human race, in Zeta Reticuli.

Part 2 will pick up next week with the 10-year journey, arrival, and departure of the astronauts.
