Scary Stuff

🎧 Finding Me with Josh Wolf

Episode 92: Scary Stuff



Let’s start with a serious question.

No jokes. No setup.

Just pure, irrational fear:

👉 What’s worse—
Getting blasted by a car horn when you’re not paying attention…

OR

A hand reaching out from under the bed… grabbing your ankle?

Yeah. Sit with that for a second.



😱 Fear, Ranked

Josh dives headfirst into the psychology of fear—the kind that hits before logic has a chance to catch up.

• Sudden noise vs. primal terror

• Startle response vs. full-body panic

• Reality vs. imagination

Because one of those things is real.

The other… shouldn’t be.

And somehow, they land exactly the same.



🚗 The Real-World Anxiety

From imaginary horrors… to a very real problem.

This weekend, Josh is heading to Bloomington.

And there’s just one issue:

No rental cars.

None.

Zero.

Apparently, the entire city has decided to go somewhere else.



🧠 The Spiral

So now we’re doing the math.

What’s the cost of a three-hour Uber ride?

Is that even a thing?

At what point does convenience become insanity?

And how exactly did this become the plan?



🎯 The Theme

This episode lands somewhere between humor and something a little more honest:

👉 The things we fear that don’t exist
👉 The things we should fear that absolutely do
👉 And the strange overlap where both feel equally real

Because whether it’s a hand under the bed…

Or a $400 Uber ride…

Fear doesn’t really care about logic.
