Hysteria 51 is your offbeat weekly podcast destination for all things weird and wonderful! We navigate the cosmic highways of UFOs, the alien-infested landscapes, and the enigmatic frontiers of the paranormal. With your hosts, Brent Hand and David Flora, alongside our cantankerous tin man, Conspiracy Bot (with a not-so-subtle desire to rule the world, doubling as our chief inquisitor into the unknown), we delve into unique mysteries, the inexplicable, and the downright unusual.Each week, we explore a fresh topic, making one thing crystal clear... the truth is out there, but you won’t find it here.

One of the few podcasts that makes me laugh out loud like a crazy person. I love conspiracy bot so much! Brent and John are cool too 😎 Stay woke meat sacks!

NEVER STOP PODCASTING!!!

Unlistenable

Completely. You guys aren’t funny no matter how many cartoon sound effects and movie clips you drop in, or how much you laugh at your own jokes.

Podcast with a touch of MST3K

Just started listening to this podcast and I really like it. You not only get topics on oddities, the paranormal and aliens, but you get random sound bytes and the presenters just enjoying themselves which makes it all the more enjoyable. The back and forth reminds me of MST3K along with their antagonistic robot. Good stuff!

When do we get the cage match?

If yo enjoy conspiracies, paranormal, food, or just general insanity, you should like this. Maybe one day they will let Joe Peck back on the show. All in all, they do a good job presenting the information in an entertaining way. Now go get your cheese muffins and beware the bot booze. And definitly do not inquire about the hang low.
Definitely Not Joe Peck

Needs more Robot

This show is great but it could be greater if they swapped those idiot hosts with Conspiracy Bot and Joe Peck full time. Everyone knows they are the real stars of the show and the only ones that bring any real knowledge and entertainment to the podcast.

Leamae’s Review ..

I feel attacked . Oh hey guys . It’s Brett from the defunct Travel Oddities podcast .. I’ve been quoted as saying I loved Guardians of the Galaxy 3 and gave it a 3 out of 5 stars .. am I being followed ?
Leamae

No words can can describe….

Brent is miss spelled. It’s supposed to be spelled Brett. JK This show is the best, 3 out 5 stars don’t change a thing!!!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Heard you mentioned on Cryptids of the Corn about the Mirror episode and decided to check it out. So glad I did. Love the show & definitely recommend it! Keep up the great work.

Brent is some sort of pigeon or another.

Downhill so very, very fast

First, your ratios of ratings to review is sus at best. But in ragards to the show, since Forsythe left if went down hill so fast. Flora is good, but your focus is awful.

Go hang out at the Grab-A-Java

I listen to A LOT of podcasts. This is my favorite. Always funny and easygoing, yet very well researched topics. As a former Chicagoan and now a Central Illinoisan, I really enjoy the occasional references to Illinois. When john left, I was worried the podcast would end or conspiracy bot would become a permanent host. So happy David is hosting. He is a great addition to the show. He was always an excellent guest host.

Great podcast

Love this podcast

Can’t get enough.

Well researched and delivered in a better than professional manner. The guys do a fabulous job providing just the facts. My only complaint is that there isn’t a cheese biscuit recipe or a link to purchase BotBooze.

MORE LISA ON THE SHOW!!!

Lisa REIGNS! Lisa ROCKS! May she reign supreme, LONG AND ROCK HARD!!!

Best Paranormal Podcast There Is

Very professionally done and funny. I like that they are skeptical and actually do a lot of research. Some people may be turned off by C-bot when first listening... but once you become a fan you will come to love him. I also like that they don't over use C-bot... that could be annoying. I do question why they have on some of their guest hosts, but it's ok. Kevin does a great job! I just LOVE you guys and the majority of my sleep list is filled with your podcast. THE WARRENS is my current favorite one that you have done. Thanks for all the effort you put into this podcast!

Love Flora!

I’ve always enjoyed Hysteria 51, but I’ll admit that it wasn’t a “go-to” podcast. I was already a fan of Blurry Photos, so with the addition of David Flora on the episodes, I now look forward to hearing what the guys are digging into each week. More legitimate stories and less awkward “bot” interruptions has me hooked. Thanks for continuing to evolve, guys!

Annoying

Not Joe Peck

I just need a little help for a few minutes and then I’ll send it over the phone. Thanks again I appreciate it. I just wanted a few things to do. I’m sorry I missed your call yesterday. I just wanted you in your room and your phone was on.
Trey Tompkins8

Hhhhhoooooooyyyyyyyyaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!

Came from Brohio and about 25 episodes away from finishing all of them lol yes I’m digging deep! These guys are great! It is worth listening to them! Also cbot for prezz!!!
Bobby Digital RZAJJ

You quote Mark Dice?! Seriously?!?!

In the Georgia Guide stones episode you guys seriously quote Mark Dice. I hope you have enlightened yourself since then to the fact that he is literally a DB grifter who capitalizes on being such. He’s not even shy about it!!! I am a new listener and feel like I know the sarcasm, but depending upon your further resources, you may lose a potential loyal listener. For now though, I am still listening. Good show otherwise.
tattoo121274

Excellent podcast!!

The hosts are very funny but also very informative. I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Really great show!
beard of lion

Great show

This podcast is great and there is nothing like it as it is unique in its own special way. Kinda like it’s Marlboro Red smoking and bot booze making drunk of a robot host named C-bot. The human hosts and guest are pretty cool too.
Blitz_33

Great content, Fun to listen to!

This show has great content with comedy mixed in the middle.
Nomad2103

Best of 6 years?

Your 16 minute “best of” contains 5 minutes of commercial. Just lost a sub gave you two stars cause I think I got one chuckle out of hours of listening.
Rick Belcher

Fun, informative, and entertaining

I’ve been listening since 2017 and a Patreon supporter for the last couple. One of my favorite pods that cover all the weird stuff out there. Brent and John were great but I do love the addition of Flora when John stepped away. Highly recommended.
Mailmanjason44

You get your money’s worth! Wait…

Been listening since the beginning back before C-bot found his voice. Now he don’t shut up about cats or dominating the meat-sacks or Bot Booze. Anywho, these guys have kept me entertained while on my mail route, through snow storms, heat waves, hurricanes and tornadoes. Have low expectations and you have nowhere to go but up 😉. Seriously, if you like Fortean subject matter and like to laugh, then these chuckle-butts do not disappoint. You will also learn to tolerate the artificial life forms!

Had to write another Review

Had to write another review since the JG/DF change over. Love the show. Been listening since 2018 or so. David Flora is an excellent choice for co-host. Brent always funny. Keeps me entertained while also well researched. Keep up the great work. C-bot for supreme leader 2024.

Went down hill

This guys were good in the beginning. Ever since they joined or partnered up with (I believe) another podcast or compony, they started going downhill. Before I could not wait for a new episode, now I see they upload and like meh.. the robots are annoying and the jokes are just terrible. It feels like they don’t have their passion in this no more and just doing it to do it. Edit: Trued going back after David joined, but I still stand with my original comment. I actually don’t even bother to click play anymore. Best of luck.
AliBoo2016

New host new score!

I liked hysteria 51 and liked Blurry Photos after David Flora went solo. That said now that David Flora is a permanent fixture on this show, I need to send 5 stars it’s way. Brent and David are very funny together and have great chemistry. The soundboard stuff I think is absolutely hilarious so keep that up!
Raven6killer

Great podcast!

Great show.. if you ever wondered a conspiracy podcast hosted by a homicidal alcoholic robot, then this show is for you. Oh, there’s also a couple humans along for the ride. The only flaw is there not enough Joe Peck.
adamfnandf

Such a solid podcast

This podcast not only makes me laugh constantly, but getting through the work day is a thousand times easier with this podcast to listen to. Constant laughs. Love it guys.
nicuumuu

Love

I love this show so much! I’ve been listening to it for a couple years now. They handled the transition to a new cohost really well
Illlikechrom

Disgusting ad choice

Absolutely disgusting to have three ads on your show from Icon Park just four days after a young man tragically died on one of their rides. Who you partner with says a lot about you.
godihatereviews

So much potential

You guys are really awesome. The sound effects and random music are badly edited in and super loud. Also makes it hard to listen to when trying to relax. Less wacky stuff, or at least wacky stuff at a normal volume and this would be a 5 star easy.
Durdenxero

Awesome

Lots of fun, but informative as well. It’s great to have a lighter look at the paranormal sometimes. Brent seems like he truly enjoys doing this and David Flora is excellent as a co-host.
ThrowGlitterNotShade

Sexiest podcast on the internet.

I listen to this purely because it turns me on. Make me your concubine c-bot!

The Gospel According to Brent and John

Love these guys. Having not seen their faces, I imagine John looking like a tall David Spade and Brent as Ed Kemper as seen in Mindhunter. Great comedic duo covering the important topics of the day.
Groovedart

Tried a few times, just can’t

Let’s move beyond the fact that they just can’t seem to quit the robot bit. It was never funny and is now just tedious. I like the topics these guys have, as well as the guests. However, the guy with the lower, affected DJ voice is just unbearable. Both hosts are prone to cringy dad jokes and seem to nervously laugh, laugh/talk and laugh/sigh throughout, but it is their meandering off-topic into completely uninteresting territory that makes this podcast hard to listen to. They seem like decent enough dudes, but the yucks and chuckles ruin the topics for me.
Cbouill

Stay woke, meat-sacks

You two fine gentlemen do a great job choosing topics and keep the discussions entertaining. Your witty banter and clever ribbing never get stale to me. Keep it up, and don’t let those other two lesser jerks on the show hold you back. As for Brett and John, please show C-Bot and Kyle more respect. That’s all.
Lightning Skull

Love this cast but it has been disappointing the last month or so…

I had to give it 5 stars because they have so many great episodes! As of the last month or so they seem to have stopped trying…. I am hoping it is just a short time thing because their older episodes or so great! I definitely suggest to anyone to listen to this podcast, just start with the older ones first.
3.14perSlice

Perfect

Two apparently insane people, with strong opinions about utter nonsense... in short the perfect ufo/alien/monster podcast.
c_papav

Just sad.

This is a good idea but someone else needs to do it better. These guys can’t stay on topic and they’re all Scully. The show needs a Mulder. Or even better, a person who has actually had a first-hand unexplained experience would really add depth. So closed minded and they throw out a lot of comments that reveal false premises and lack of perspective about this stuff, or anything. Why in the world are they doing it? Posers.
Justin19133

Really well researched and funny

Okay so I’m revising my review cause they seem to have done what I had wanted which is just rain in the annoying music. This really is one of the best podcasts of its type on the web. And they frequently introduce me to totally new stories I’ve never heard of before. Which as many podcasts as I listen to is actually very impressive!
IrishLadOKC

Great podcast, but…

Please stop the horribly awkward sex toys commercial…it’s just so icky.
magikman22

A fun take on the weird and interesting

John and Brent have great rapport and present the material in a funny, relatable manner. If you enjoy conspiracies, aliens, or the paranormal, but take none of those things seriously, this is the show for you! Also, Joe Peck is pretty alright.
lunachick1995

This is the PODCAST!

Give it a listen everyone! I love them so much.
pantera714

A guilty pleasure!

John & Brent are dorky yet relatable, and their content is always interesting. I don’t normally like banter, but these guys do it right. You can tell that they really research their topics and always present it in a way that keeps your attention. C-Bot is the best!
