“Who needs psychedelics when you can just listen to Future Fossils. But seriously, what a great podcast. I feel smarter by the minute as I listen and it also makes me realize just how much I don’t know. Definitely a heady experience! More please! :)”

“Just like the title says. But better. This pod is like a crossover between the world of Weird Studies, Aliens and Artists, and Expanding Mind and the world of Everyone is Right and The Daily Evolver. But it is greater than the sum of it's parts. A real freak show in the best possible sense.”Read full review »
