 LilWeird Podcast: Uncovering Mysteries Beyond the Ordinary

Welcome to LilWeird Podcast, your destination for stories that live between the strange and the sacred.
Each week, we dive into uncanny tales, forgotten histories, and curious beliefs from the Philippines and beyond. From mythical creatures and haunted legends to folk magic, superstitions, and conspiracies, LilWeird explores the weird and wonderful across cultures, timelines, and traditions.
What began as a journey into Filipino folklore has now grown into a wider quest to uncover stories that slip between reality and myth. We untangle strange histories, revisit ancestral knowledge, and follow mysteries wherever they lead with an open mind, a bit of skepticism, and a lot of curiosity.

🎙️ New episodes drop every Thursday.

    12 Weird Nights - Night 12 – Season Wrap Up
    Jan 23 2026
    The Final Curious Night is a quiet curtain call for 12 Weird Nights—a soft pause at the end of a season shaped by wonder, questions, and late-night curiosity.

    In this episode, I look back on where our curiosity took us—from ancient skies and forgotten knowledge to the strange corners of the mind and the comfort of night stories. It’s a love letter to the gentle misfits, the quiet thinkers, and anyone who’s ever felt a little out of place in a loud world.

    There are no big mysteries to solve tonight—just gratitude, reflection, and a reminder that wonder doesn’t disappear when the lights go out. It waits.

    Thank you for spending these nights with me.
    Until the next curious night. 🌙

    -Jane 🐝

  • 12 Weird Nights - Night 11 – Why Time Feels Weird Sometimes

    12 Weird Nights - Night 11 – Why Time Feels Weird Sometimes
    Jan 17 2026
    (00:00:00) 12 Weird Nights - Night 11 – Why Time Feels Weird Sometimes (00:03:09) Part 1 - When Time Actually Breaks (According to Physics) (00:06:04) PART 2 — When Time Feels Weird (The Brain’s Version of Reality) (00:09:18) PART 3 — When We Let Time Break (Flow, Focus, and Altered States) (00:12:13) PART 4 — Places Where Time Feels… Thin (00:15:40) PART 5 — Time Slips: Stories That Refuse to Stay in the Past (00:19:05) PART 6 — The Mandela Effect: When Memory Slips Together (00:21:24) PART 7 — What We’re Actually Seeing When Time Feels Unstable (00:23:26) Outro Why does time sometimes feel like it’s speeding up, slowing down, or skipping altogether?In Episode 11 of 12 Weird Nights, we explore the strange moments when time feels unstable and why that feeling isn’t just in your head. From real physics that prove time can bend, to the brain’s habit of quietly editing reality, this episode unpacks why our experience of time is far more flexible than we’re taught to believe.We’ll talk about time dilation, perception glitches, flow states, disorienting places, and the stories people tell when time feels off without turning it into science fiction or fear. Just curiosity, context, and a deeper look at how reality is experienced rather than measured.This episode also lands at a fitting moment: a season-ender mini-series unfolding right at the start of a new year. An ending inside a beginning and a reminder that time doesn’t just move forward. It stretches, bends, and sometimes hesitates.In this episode, we explore:Why time isn’t constant according to physicsHow speed and gravity can slow time downWhy the brain doesn’t experience time as a single “clock”Common time distortions like the stopped-clock illusionHow flow states, focus, and altered awareness affect timeWhy certain places feel disorienting or “off”Time slip stories and why they persist without physical proofHow shared memory and storytelling shape our sense of the pastThe difference between physical, perceptual, and cultural time distortionsThis episode is part of 12 Weird Nights, a mini-series designed for late-night listening, quiet curiosity, and questions that don’t always need answers.If this episode sparked your curiosity, made you feel a little more enchanted, or reminded you of the stories hiding in plain sight—I’d love for you to stay connected with the LilWeird Universe.
