car accident – Beyond Beyond Belief

#41 Into the spider closet [S4E9 with Will Hines]

By Mark Walberg | December 18, 2018

Kyle is out this episode, but in his place we have guest host Will Hines! Will Hines is a comedian who performs at UCB LA and co-hosted the podcast “Don’t Get Me Started.”

Will hasn’t seen the original show before and is a hardline skeptic.

Story 1: The Wealthy Widow – A man marries a widow and goes looking for her late husband’s buried fortune.

Who tells this story?… since the man is dead and the other witness is a ghost? Will thinks maybe the widow murdered both husbands.
Everyone agrees the ghost taunting the husband is the best part.

Story 2: The Witness – A group of girls avenges their friend’s murder by summoning her spirit.

Tiffany thinks the girls just knew details about the suspect and relayed it to the police.
Will thinks it’s very similar to the movie The Craft.

Story 3: The Accident – A year after a man saves someone in a car accident, he finds himself in a similar situation.

The group debates the integrity of windshields.
The group uses the coincidence rule. Except for Will, who thinks it’s too obviously fact, that it must be fiction.

Story 4: Bad Dreams – A woman’s deadly predictions about her 30th birthday seem to be coming true.

All agree this is one of the better stories, with an actual twist ending.
Chris had a premonition about running to neighbors, and then seconds later ran into them. Is that really a premonition though?

Story 5: Mental – A couple pretending to have telekinetic abilities discover something incredible when they face real danger.

Is this just a story the couple told to drum up business?
It’s crazy to think she had powers but then could never use them again.

During our ad-break, we read and listen to audience-submitted stories that are very Beyond Belief…

The story results are revealed.

Our guest-host Will only guessed one correctly and 100 percent questions the integrity of Beyond Belief’s research.

#39 Car trouble [S4E7]

By Jesse Chapman | October 23, 2018

This is the season 4 mid-season break…and Jesse has karaoke voice.

Story 1: The Wreath – A detective investigating a hit and run case gets a break when another accident mysteriously occurs.

It’s very believable that city officials could get confused with their paperwork.
This could be a case of the complicated theory.
The parents of the deceased child were a bit too “handsy” given the scenario.

Story 2: Terror Night – A mysterious pipe leak leads to a life-changing event.

Chris just thinks this is about crappy apartments.
There’s been a running theme in season 4 –near death astral projection to save one’s own life.
Jesse thinks the “thanks” is too writery.

Story 3: Tants – An artist who’s inspired by an old woman at the park, makes a shocking discovery when she paints her.

No one thought this story would be named Tants. Which are actually pants with a table built into them…from The Regular Show.
No one saw the initial twist coming.
There is no way this story is fiction. The writers couldn’t make this story up.

Story 4: The Candidate – A politician’s conscience gets the best of him during a political debate.

Kyle would believe this it was from an older time.
Tiff points out that if it’s the spirit of Abraham Lincoln why didn’t he step in earlier?

Story 5: The Ring – A hairdresser having an affair with a client’s husband enacts a nasty plan to get what she wants.

Tiffany believes that people do crazy things for money.
No one understands why the ring is cursed.

Part 7 of our Ouija experience:

On this week’s installment Mark, Jesse, and Kyle finally use the Ouija and dive into the spirit word…

The story results are revealed.

#10 Castles castles castles [S2E4]

By Mark Walberg | December 26, 2017

“Is anyone else turned on by this story?”

Today we review Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction season 2, episode 4. In an attempt to be more casual, Chris botches his intro. It’s revealed that this week’s episode of Beyond Belief has a theme – Friday the 13^th! However, the stories do a pretty bad job of connecting anything to this theme and actually give up halfway through. Chris tries to get everyone to share their own Friday the 13^th story, but no one has one… except Chris, who ate a whole pepperoni pizza to himself on Friday the 13^th. Kyle explains the history of Friday the 13^th.
