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…

THE OPPORTUNIST IS AVAILABLE NOW
The Opportunist tells true stories of regular people who turn sinister simply by being opportunistic. How does an everyday person turn into a thief, a cult leader, or a scammer? Instead of portraying criminals as distinctly “other,” we explore our similarities and reveal the dark potential lurking inside of all of us. The Opportunist will launch with an episodic series on Sherry Shriner, a midwest mom and life-long church goer turned internet cult leader. The series follows Sherry as she gains thousands of followers online by promoting her own religion (a blend of biblical doomsday predictions and popular alien/reptilian conspiracy theories) and profits on selling spiritual weapons that defeat aliens and demons. As she rises to the status of infallible goddess, she leaves a trail of death and destruction in her wake. We speak with family & friends of deceased cult members, prosecutors, police officers, a high profile cult expert and more. Through thought-provoking interviews and investigative reporting, The Opportunist invites the listener along with us on a thrilling journey of discovery.

That place, is the Berwyn Mountains...

Customer Reviews
Good stuff!
Great music in the background. Stories are intriguing and makes for compelling listening.
A better Lore
New to this podcast. I appreciate its professional production qualities, and the choice of stories delivered so eloquently by the (British) host. Similarities will be compared to the Lore podcast, but I'd say Unexplained is more straightforward and easy to understand.
One of the best true storytelling I’ve heard
This podcast makes me want to go back to school to study Library Science or History. Thank you. You make wonderful research. Music is great too.
