Great podcast and really unique
I stumbled onto this podcast after listening to an episode of Boing Boing Gadgets in which they mentioned some of their favorite podcasts. Maybe because they're married (or in spite of it!) Greg and Sharon, the hosts of Futility Closet have a great rapport with each other. They reveal a wide variety of information that really is the way Greg describes in the intro "curious, thought-provoking and amusing". Very well done without resorting to goofy slap-stick humor or profanity. I don't find it dry at all! They are a fantastic and refreshing change. Plus cool background music too Why aren't they on NPR???Read full review »

Great low key podcast, discussing quirky historical events. They end with a lateral thinking puzzle which is great fun to play along with. Relaxing, informative and entertaining.
