SEASON 07 WILL BEGIN FRIDAY JULY 28TH
Unexplained is a haunting and unsettling bi-weekly podcast about strange and mysterious real life events that continue to evade explanation. A story-based show mixing spoken-word narrative, history and ideas - often to terrifying effect - that explores the space between what we think of as real and what is not; where sometimes belief can be as concrete as ‘reality,’ whatever that is…

Customer Reviews
Fascinating and narrator is so good!
This podcast is full of fascinating stories. I generally don’t believe in the supernatural, but I’m still left with a lot of uncertainty after listening to Unexplained. The stories are well told, and the narrator has a lovely voice. He speaks calmly, softly and uses a precise language. There’s also a perfectly spooky atmosphere to his story-telling. Love it! I listen to the episodes on repeat. It’s also impressive that he does it all himself!
Unexplained A pleasure to listen to
Richard MacLean Smith must be one of the best storyteller i have ever heard . The way he setup the episode is to grab you into it, and then grab you deeper and deeper. You simple cant get out. First i feel he really have researched each episode alot. But its also so much about how he present it. Its almost like listening to a audio book. He has a very nice and great voice which i feel is a very important thing when coming to podcast. But, it doesnt stop here. He has also, if it was not enough with the story also produced the music,which i find so great, because of the type of music, and the way he use it in the story. Dont miss this podcast, its just something everyone should try!
Soothing and well scripted
I really enjoy this podcast in the late evenings. Narrator has a great soothing voice and tells the stories in a well scripted way. As a huge reader of philosophy I really like when story telling and ideas of philosophy entangles, because it reveals the palimpsested way reality presents itself.
