Share episode

Buckle up for a wild ride through anonymous confessions that'll make you gasp, cringe, and laugh out loud. The debut of Gremlin Gossip arrived with a bang as listeners submitted their juiciest secrets, resulting in seven stories that range from shocking to downright disturbing.

Ever wonder what happens when someone's specific bedroom fetish goes terribly wrong? Have you wanted to exact revenge with an Etsy witch? Well listener submissions might ave the answers. The dark humor continues with an office tale about a woman whose husband "randomly" died, only for her to be dating within weeks and engaged within months, leaving coworkers suspicious about what really happened.

The confessions take a relatable turn with not one but two separate stories about condom mishaps during hookups, proving some embarrassing experiences are more universal than we might think. Meanwhile, another listener shares the cringe-worthy moment of recognizing her child's school crossing guard as a one-night stand, creating daily dropoff anxiety. The episode concludes with a sobering account from someone who, at 17, lost their virginity to a thirty-something predator who worked at a high school, offering an important reminder about recognizing dangerous situations.

These anonymous revelations scratch our collective itch for the taboo and remind us that everyone has secrets they're dying to share if given the right platform. Submit your own gremlin gossip, gremlin stories, or gremlin guidance to emilytogremilypod@gmail.com and follow along on Instagram and TikTok @emilytogremilypod. Your confession could be featured next... anonymously, of course!

Speaker 1:

all right, cheers. Guys, we are doing the very, very, very, very, very first gremlin gossip episode, gremlin Gossip episode. So last week I had a submission from a listener named Joey and they gave me this story that they didn't think really applied for it to be like a gremlin story, but it was just like a piece of gossip that they wanted to share. And I got really excited and I put it out to all of you guys. If you have gossip that you want to share, to send it in, because I absolutely love to hear gossip, even if I don't know the people. I'm just nosy like that. I'm a nose and nelly, so I have let's see one, two, three, four, five, six, seven gossip stories that I picked. Um, oh, can't forget. The drink of the week is I was lazy today it's just a Celsius with Tito's, so it's energy drink with vodka. It's not the prettiest color, it kind of looks like I'm drinking a science experiment, but and it's kind of late. Let's see, normally I film during the day, but right now it's almost 930 at night and it's kind of late. Let's see, normally I film during the day, but right now it's almost 930 at night. I had a day, but I have a bunch to do after this. So the Celsius will come in handy and hopefully I'll get everything done and tomorrow can be a free day. Okay, so we have seven gremlin gossips. I was thinking about putting in seven gremlin gossips. I was thinking about putting in some gremlin stories, but I kind of wanted this episode to just be the gossip. So next week we'll see what the format is. I'm still playing around with stuff, guys. I am figuring it out as I go.

Speaker 1:

The first one also. You guys got real comfortable, real quick. I'll tell you that right now. I, when I received them, I usually there's not like a formula to how I read the stories, um, but for this, like normally, I just pick them like based on, like, how I receive them. That's just the order that they go in. Um, but for this I was like, hmm, I feel like there might need to be some order. The first one I'm going to read it had me clutching my pearls. I was like, oh my God. So I figured let's start strong and it's you'll. You, I guess you'll see. But yeah, the first one is wild. I think it's the craziest one. It might be the ickiest. So with that, let's get it started. Actually, most of these are anonymous with, I believe, the exception of just one. Yeah, okay, so the first one, which it might rank as the number one most insane piece of gossip we got for this episode.

Speaker 1:

Anonymous says when I was 25, I was dating this guy who had a fetish for coming on me. I can't believe I'm reading this. It didn't matter where, he just liked to see it on me. I had a rule. He couldn't get it in my eyes because I had lash extensions. Well, one of the last times we slept together, he whipped it out and, you guessed, it got me in both eyes. I was pissed and blinded. I cleaned myself up and went to bed annoyed. The next day my eyes were feeling really itchy and, oh God, okay, hold on, let me do that. The next day, my eyes were feeling really itchy and by the nighttime they were becoming sticky. The following morning I had full on pink eye in both eyes and had to go to the doctor for eye drops. I was furious and we stopped dating shortly after that.

Speaker 1:

I don't know why it gave me pink words. I don't know if this is a unique experience for you. It hasn't happened to me and it hasn't happened to anyone that I know of. I mean, I feel like myself and my friends were pretty like open with each other about like what has, like like gossiping, like you know, about sex stuff. I feel like they someone would have told me if this had happened to them, and they haven't. So I don't know if this is like a thing.

Speaker 1:

Also, I was going to google why you got pink eye, um, and then I thought about it and I decided, decided, first of all, I don't think I wanted to know. Second, it seems like you didn't want to know either. And third, I got weirded out about my search history. I'm like that's like I don't know it, just it made me feel icky. It made me feel icky so I didn't Google it. Um, I so, yeah, and if people out there know why, um, I don't, I don't even think I want to know. I guess, keep it to yourself. Um, yeah, this, this grossed me out. I like I said I was clutching my pearls when I read it and I was like, oh my God. And I was like, should I read this on the podcast? Like, is it too vulgar? And I'm like, well, technically it's not too vulgar, it's just like eerie. But, um, yeah, we're starting off real strong guys. And um sorry to anonymous who got pink eye Cause that's no fun. Um and yeah, um, I have no words, so let's just move on.

Speaker 1:

The next one is also anonymous. She says I've been paying an Etsy witch every month to curse my ex-boyfriend. He's a bastard who cheated on me with two of my friends, so he deserves it. It's not too expensive and it makes me feel better. I heard he has recently lost his job, so I'd like to think I had something to do with that. Unsigned. I do always hear like it's mainly on TikTok. If I'm going to say I heard about something, just assume it's TikTok.

Speaker 1:

I have heard about this whole Etsy witch. I don't know like spike in, like people like using them. I don't think I would ever use them myself because I do think it's kind of a scam, but at the same time that's pretty funny. Also, he's a bastard who cheated on me with two of my friends. Your friends aren't innocent in this either. I hope you're spreading the curse around at least. I mean, yeah, he sucks, but I mean, if those were two of your, if there were two of your friends that you know slept with him as well? They're not your friends. They're just as guilty as he is, because I could tell you, if my friend's boyfriend came on to me, I wouldn't be like okay, and then sleep with sleep with him, like zero loyalty from any of them. So I hope all of them are out of your life.

Speaker 1:

And um, the Etsy witch I wonder if it's the same one that keeps like everyone keeps talking about. Because there's this one that's like apparently like super popular because she's like I don't know the most she has like the best. I don't know rating on the Etsy, I don't know the most she has like the best. I don't know rating on Etsy, I don't know. But I have heard about this. I don't really plan on using it. I don't have anyone that I want to curse, you know, I don't know. I guess I'm just sweet like that. All right. Number three let's go. Another unsigned. She says pre-COVID.

Speaker 1:

I was working at this office for a couple of years. My cubicle was next to a woman let's call her Susan and we were friendly. Her husband randomly passed away and she took some time off of work. When she came back she wasn't solemn like we all thought she would be. She was actually raving about her new boyfriend. Everyone was shocked. Her husband died in September, I remember, because it was the day after my birthday. She was talking about her new boyfriend in October and by Christmas she was engaged. It just seemed really weird. She stopped working at the office a couple months later, so I don't know what happened.

Speaker 1:

Anonymous, um, I think someone should look into Susan. Um, he died randomly. I'm. I'm gonna say maybe she had something to do with that, because that's so weird. I don't mean to laugh. I laugh when I get nervous. Um, yeah, I am, I think Susan murdered her husband, but that's just me talking. And look, it said pre-COVID, so it's at the very least five years ago, maybe six actually. Yeah, yeah, someone look into that. I wonder if people did get suspicious and then looked into it and maybe she was just cleared like now. I want to know how did the husband die? Like was it a freak accident? Or like he obviously wasn't sick, because it says randomly suspicious, I don't know. Um, yeah, so we have an array of stories here, from fetishes to curses to possible murder. Anyway, let's move it on.

Speaker 1:

All right, the next one. I paired these two together because it's the same thing. Pretty much happened to both of these girls. The same thing pretty much happened to both of these girls. Yeah, the first one, she was our only brave one. Not that the rest of them aren't brave, she's just the only one who signed her name. So Marissa says this is super embarrassing, but I think you'll find it funny.

Speaker 1:

I had been hooking up with this guy for a couple months and I liked him, but I didn't really see a future with him. One night after we were done, he tells me that the condom is missing. So we're searching the bed, thinking it fell off, but we can't find it. I get up to pee and then realized the condom was inside of me. I was trying to get it out. The condom was inside of me. I was trying to get it out but unfortunately needed his assistance. It was so embarrassing, but he was cool about it. Thank God, marissa. And let's just move it right into the next one.

Speaker 1:

Anonymous says during my ho phase there was this one particular bar I would go to to scout for new potential hookups. I met a guy there who was in town for work and he was a cutie. His hotel was down the street and after a couple of hours of talking and many drinks later we are stumbling to his room. He told me he didn't have any protection but me being a safety queen. I said I had one in my purse so I give it to him and we get down to business. Everything was great, but I decided I wanted to go home, so I got dressed, said goodbye and made my way home.

Speaker 1:

When I got home, I crashed immediately into bed and woke up the next morning with a hangover. I eventually get up and shower and when I was soaping up I felt something down there. I'm freaked out and investigate and it was the motherfucking condom. I was so grossed out maybe it was too big for him and it slipped off. I don't know. I never called the guy back and I definitely slowed down my ho ways, anonymous, okay, okay, um, this has never happened to me either. Um, and I don't. I don't know that. I haven't heard any of my friends talk about this either, but like, what's up? Like these guys are using baggy condoms, like just get your own size, like how much you want to bet? These are the guys that are buying magnums at the store and really they need like smalls. Either that, or they got like pencil dicks over here. Well, I don't. I don't understand how it's, how it slips off. I should have, maybe I should have googled that, but again, I again.

Speaker 1:

My search history is already really weird because I like to look up random facts that I hear about. Okay, this is a couple days ago. I saw this TikTok about. This has nothing to do with the stories, by the way, I'm just going on a tangent. I saw this TikTok about how Teddy Roosevelt's daughter, alice, was banned from the White House by two different presidents. So I was like, huh, why? Like that's weird, like what did she do? Wikipedia, where then they were? They said Teddy Roosevelt only became president because he was the vice president of William McKinley, who was assassinated during office. So I was like, hmm well, who assassinated him? So click on that guy's page, you know, go through all the things found out, like why he did it, and blah, blah, blah.

Speaker 1:

Anyway, I did such a deep dive on this guy who assassinated William McKinley that I found out that after his execution he had an autopsy performed and they found out that he had I'm going to butcher the way this is said chakras. I don't know how to say it, but I didn't know what the fuck it was. So I clicked on it and I was like well, what is that? Anyway, I found out that William McKinley's assassinator had an STI from, apparently you know, swinging his dick all around town and it's like I guess you would equate it to like modern day herpes. I don't know. They said it was genital sores. Anyway, that's to say, my search history is wild and weird. I didn't want to add this onto it and it makes me I wonder. Did Marissa and Anonymous sleep with the same guy who just doesn't fit into condoms? I don't know, and he didn't have one on him Like dude. All right, Anyway, that was a tangent and let's move it. Move it along, okay. Anonymous says this one was pretty funny.

Speaker 1:

I was dropping my daughter off for her first day of second grade. There is a drop-off line across the street and the kids hop out and cross the street to enter the school. So my daughter gets out of the car and the kids hop out and cross the street to enter the school. So my daughter gets out of the car and I'm waiting at the crosswalk watching her walk across the street. When someone catches my eye, I immediately cringe. When I realized the crossing card was a man I had a one night stand with when my daughter was on vacation with her dad and stepmom during the summer. Luckily he didn't see me or recognize me, and now'm dreading drop-offs for this year fml.

Speaker 1:

Um, I want to know, does he work for the school, like, is he like a teacher there, or is his profession just crossing guard? And I mean you met him as a one-night stand. I'm assuming you met him at like a bar or club. Did he not say what he did? Because I got to tell you if I met a guy at a club and then he said that his occupation was a crossing guard, I don't know if I'd hook up with him. So I'm assuming he's got something else going on other than crossing guard and he't. I don't know if I'd hook up with him. So I'm assuming he's got something else going on other than crossing guard and he maybe works for the school. And because I know like sometimes like teachers, you know what do they do like volunteer, I guess there's that, okay. And the last one is also anonymous. She says oh, okay, I picked this one to be the last one on purpose, you'll see why. So I have a crazy losing my virginity story as well.

Speaker 1:

I was 17 and had been talking to this guy on Facebook this was the days before Tinder 17 and had been talking to this guy on Facebook this was the days before Tinder. So we decided to meet up. I thought he went to a high school in the neighboring town and he was my age when I got there. He did look like his pictures, but he was much older, like in his 30s, and he wasn't a student at the high school, but he worked at the high school. But I was young and dumb and didn't see the problem. So we hung out that night and he ended up punching in my V card. Now that I'm older, I definitely see that he was a predator. So now I'm sharing the gossip to let others know.

Speaker 1:

Anonymous. Oh my God, not only is this guy a predator. Predator, he works at a high school like, he works at a place where he can. What prey on the young. Oh, gross, what a creepo. I wonder what he's doing now. And then I wonder if you were 17 and this was Facebook times like what do you? What year do you think? This was? Like 2008, maybe, I don't know. Scary, but yeah, I wonder what he's up to now. Hopefully he's not still up to his same antics.

Speaker 1:

I mean, I know I have like an affinity for the elderly, but not when I was 17. And technically, like, I just like to say that because it bothers um, my boyfriend, it's not like he's a senior citizen this year, but yeah, okay. So, yeah, I just thought we should end on that as a little PSA for all the youngins out there. I don't know, do I have any really young listeners? I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Now I feel weird about that first story I just told. If I have like a 16, 17 year old listening, I don't know. I mean I can't like censor myself now. I feel like I've said worse things. But yeah, I don't know. I'm assuming my age demographic is like my age, right, I don't know. Well, I don't know. Guys, if you have kids, don't let them listen to this, because I plan on saying worse stuff in in the years to come. I highly doubt this woman talking about the fetish her boyfriend had is going to be the worst thing that comes out of my mouth. So, yeah, everyone, make sure that you watch your kids and they don't, you know, come into contact with predators like this, because what a fucking creep. Grody's All right. Well, that is it. It's short, it's sweet, it's gossipy and we love gossip. There were more gossip submissions that I did see.
