Mud

Listened to the mud series while hiking around a lake solo for 8 hours. I now know more about mud than I will ever need to. 10/10 would recommend.

Love the show! Amazing science facts, monsters and myths, and weird movies

I love the science episodes and have listened for years!

Weird house cinema are my go to episodes to listen to over and over in the car!

Great hosts that dive deep into topics and I love how they bring together the history, science, mythology and the speculative into a fascinating journey of discovery!
