  • Honestly top tier for fortean vibes. Diverse oddities, from cryptids to beyond the ice wall and everything in between. pleasant, non shouty voices and good natured discourse, well suited for "maybe logic" folks like me. Consistent.

  • I've only listened to the latest few episodes (Lacerta files) but I'm really enjoying the show. The chemistry between the hosts is really good.

    It's great to find a quality podcast that touches on these topics. I can't believe I didn't know about this one!

    The show would be so much better if you got rid of the guy that’s constantly cackling throughout every episode. Any episode without Rob is unbearable to listen to.
