- Absolutely great
Just started listening to this show after years of listening to Monster Talk.
Well worth subscribing to, as it covers a sceptical look back at the 1970’s “mysteries” I knew growing up, such as the ones in the “In search of series” (or the Arthur C Clarke’s “Mysterious World” series here in the UK).
The two hosts, and occasional guests, also seem to have a much better rapport than that of Monster Talk (which I nonetheless still listen to constantly).

The matter of WHY we want to believe in ... more

Canada8 months ago - Just revisited, wish it was better.
Love the idea for this show and I have listened to Blake’s stuff off and on for many many years but his cohosts bad attitude, dismissiveness, and ignorance of anything outside his own narrow specialty make this a tough listen.
