  • Short, interesting, and well written

    I first encountered Chobot on Expedition X, and have really enjoyed this podcast where she delves into a wide variety of aspects that have influenced how we culturally deal with the unknown. And it’s tightly scripted and short, which is a welcome rarity among the rambling long pods that are everywhere lately.
