I love listening to Richard delve into high strangeness while masterfully displaying the connections between the anomalous and what it means to be human! My husband and I both enjoy listening to this podcast, and we often talk for hours about the ideas Richard presents. We’ve found some new favorite books here, and some new favorite people, too.
Storytelling and narration so stellar you’ll lose track of time and place and responsibility—in a good way. Paranormal and somehow strengthens my belief in humanity at the same time. Just magical!
I can’t get enough of listening to Richard’s intriguing life experiences along with amazing scary stories. It works so well and I look forward to each episode. Richard’s way with words and witty, intelligent interpretations of beliefs and experience, is always a breath of fresh air.
Thank you Richard and team. Love it.
Love Astonishingly Legends too where Richard always adds a big splash of something extra special on their show too.
Thanks 🙏
Very enjoyable podcast! As someone who grew up reading paranormal books, I like the unique approach to the subject matter. The scariest episodes are my favourites!
I honesty love this podcast. The way Richard is able to combine the books he talks about with his personal life, is like poetry.
