Anomalous Fascination: Recent Episodes
Anomalous Fascination
The mysteries of the universe are vast. Whether they are light years away, in a far off country, in things we use everyday, or even our own backyard...they never seem to have an explanation...they just ARE. This podcast seeks to bring these unexplainable phenomena to our audience, while making it easy for anyone to understand. If nothing else, by listening to this, you’ll sound a lot smarter at parties.
This week, I will be answering listener questions about past episodes, the show as a whole, and about me - Andy. Please note - this is an unscripted and lightly edited episode - so don't expect top tier quality here. Check it out!

In episode 6, we go into more familiar territory...cats. Humans have known and loved cats for at least 4000 years...and yet despite all of that time...one aspect of cats remains shrouded in mystery...the purr.

In episode 5, we go deep into a death from the 1940s that is truly so unexplainable...that it is hard to say if it belongs more on Unsolved Mysteries...or the Twilight Zone. So much so...that I had to make the episode longer in order to fit as many details as possible. Ready for a strange ride?

In episode 3, we review the research and studies of 2 researchers and their findings regarding the survival of the human consciousness after death.

In Episode 2, we search for a phantom that only shows itself to select portions of the population, leaving pain and confusion in its wake. Since at least the late 1960s, a global phenomena that started in England, the US, and Canada, has now grown to be found all across the world. It's called "The Hum", and it is wreaking havoc...but there just might be...some hope.

In episode 1, we look upward, gazing at the stars above us and receiving more questions than answers. This weeks episode discusses an event in 1977 that was so incredible and unusual, that scientists still have no answers for how it happened. (please note that the 2017 findings, while compelling, have not been widely accepted by everyone).

Welcome to the Anomalous Fascination Podcast, where each week I bring you a topic that defies logic. No topics are off limits, but each topic has one common demoninator: No one on earth....is quite sure...why it is what it is or how it happened. Tune in each week as Andrew Clodfelter brings you a subject that fascinates him, but presented in a way that everyone can understand it (no calculus required). Stay Tuned....
