Guide to the Unknown is genuinely one of my favorite podcasts of all time. Will and Kristen’s banter reminds me of the kind of banter I might have with my friends. Phrases such as “wet puppetry” and “scarmuto” are now part of my regular lexicon and I cannot thank y'all enough. I come for the...Read full review »

Laugh out loud funny! Brother & sister team are informative and hilarious. I’m not even a horror fan, but I love listening to them talk about anything. They have a wide range of topics. They are both natural storytellers, and crack each other up in the most endearing way. Please never stop...Read full review »

These siblings make me laugh so hard! I listen to them at the end of the day to relax and laugh my worries away. Love their chemistry and when they make fun of each other kills me! I also was obsessed with American dolls like Kristen growing up and dressed up as Laura Inguals Wilder as a child...Read full review »

Me and my mom listened to you guys all the time, and one year she bought me a guide to the unknown shirt. When my mom made a post will commented on it which made my day, and then a month later I got a friggin Christmas card from them! I think about that a lot and I will be sending (VERY late...Read full review »

If you’re like me, your favorite memories with your friends involve tangents, debates, and endless riffs about every topic under the endless umbrella of “spooky.” Discussing the conspiracy theories around The Shining while sitting at a greasy spoon late at night. Debating which horror movie...Read full review »

Fun
Kristen and Will are so fun to listen to! I love their enthusiasm for all spooky topics! Listen!
All Hallows Erin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/29/24
Cryptids, movie reviews, spooky history, ghost stories, haunted toilets? they have it all. First stumbled upon GTTU when diving into Vermont cryptids and it quickly became my favorite podcast. Will and Kristen’s relationship reminds me a lot of my best friend and I. Their fun banter makes my work...Read full review »

Love the hosts, the chemistry, the stories, the conversations, literally everything about this podcast. I especially love the way Will tells his stories. He’s a great story teller and they both put so much into their descriptions. Will’s a natural! They are both so hilarious and its a great...Read full review »

Kristen and Will are hilarious! This is the only scary/creepy podcast I can listen to at night before bed and not be up for hours. The subjects are dark but the silliness of the siblings keeps it lite. Thanks for the great podcast. And thanks for not keeping me up all night from fright!
Sweet Tea-Rex via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/13/24
You come for the subject and the light tone, you stay for the great company. These wonderful people are so kind and funny and relatable and this podcast has helped me through some rough times. Thank you so much! Also nerd alert! <3
Throbbing Bennet via Apple Podcasts · Denmark · 05/24/24
Guide to the Unknown is an online podcast about Kristen and Will, who are siblings and best friends who go on adventures and fight monsters. It is VERY SCARY, but I can’t help myself from listening to find out how each cliffhanger is resolved.
kidicarus222 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/18/24
Guide to the Unknown is hands down my favorite podcast. The topics are super interesting, the research is top notch, and the banter between Kristen and Will will make you laugh out loud. Their Patreon is also worth every penny. Thanks for making my workdays more bearable!

So just started into the podcast, listening to the newest stuff. Definitely enjoying what I’m hearing. Like Lore, but with more jokes and infectious laughter. And guys, check out Hinterkaifeck if you really want your skin to crawl.
BowserX via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/10/24
Absolutely love this show. It is my comfort show and have listened to each episode multiple times. I still listen to the brownies and Daniel stern episode and laugh out loud! Will and Kris you will never know how much I appreciate your show. It was there for me during some dark times, but I could...Read full review »

Fun
I really enjoy the podcast. The stories are interesting and entertaining. Love the discussions and banter, often makes me laugh out loud. Unfortunately I do wish there was less inserting of their obvious political views when it insults any one with opposing views. Also, why speak so rudely and...Read full review »

Found this from Will’s spot on TESD! I am really enjoying it! Hope he gets the Overkill Job!
noneyabiz333 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/23/24
I found this podcast because Will was on another podcast i like(Tell’em Steve Dave). This pod is great. I have something new to listen too now at work.
BolaFett via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/19/24
This show is a great way to pass an hour on my drive home from work. Kristen and Will have a genuinely happy relationship that keeps every episode a pleasure to listen to .

God these two siblings make me laugh. The topics are interesting, the hosts’ ideas and opinions are funny and well-reasoned, but it’s the dynamic between them that sets this podcast apart.
Basic Kitsch via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/26/24
I’ve been listening for years and I never get tired of Kristen and Will and their takes on all the scary fun topics they tackle each week. I have no one to talk to about spooky stuff and this podcasts makes me feel like I do. They’re incredibly natural and charming and seem like good people and...Read full review »

The best scary fun podcast. GTTU is always a good time!

If you enjoy anything weird, spooky, or paranormal, this is the podcast for you! Love the movie and book episodes, hot takes, and delightful sibling banter. Listen! Do it! You will not be disappointed!
CFSpeed via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/25/24
I met Will at Podtales in November 2019, but didn't get around to starting the podcast until lockdown in 2020. I caught up quickly and Kristen and Will’s amazing sibling banter, jokes, and enthusiasm for the horror genre gave me something to look forward to during a very scary time. I love...Read full review »
Elliott Junkyard via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/25/24
I love this show! It is well researched, well produced and Will and Kristen are fantastic. I think I have listened to the whole show at least 3 times and for me it never gets old. I love the topics and I love Will and Kristen’s particular brand of humor. Guide to the Unknown has a huge back...Read full review »

Will and Kristen are so smart and funny! The topics are all interesting and all the stuff I love. I only wish Kristen had a podcast about Bravo shows too! I have been on Patreon for years with them and it’s worth every penny. Thanks for the hours of entertainment and laughs!
Mommysbored2876543 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/24
Just discovered this gem after they joined the Bloody Disgusting network. Great chemistry - almost makes me wish I had a sibling!
MaryfromLonglsland via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/24
The topics are so much fun. Kristen and Will have great senses of humor. The extra episodes through being a patreon member are well worth it.
TEH.1984 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/24
This brother and sister team cover so many great topics: lore, mystery, nerdom, horror, you name it. The back and forth alone makes for a great listen for the sister/brother aspect, but don't let the playfulness fool you. These two are incredibly creative and well-read so listening to them...Read full review »
Myque C via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/24
I listen to this while ink drawing, and have to stop periodically because I’m shaking from laughter. The hosts’ sibling chemistry is hilarious. Sometimes they seem to snatch the thoughts and puns out of my head. GTTU has become a comfort listen over the past few years. I look forward to each...Read full review »
Roguefoe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/24/24
Each week I anticipate Friday’s episode, and they never ever disappoint. All of the topics are interesting enough for me to listen to them, but underground enough that I learn a new thing every week. I have never seen a single horror movie, but thanks to Will and Kristen, I know the plot of...Read full review »
theblackunicorn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/24
I absolutely love the dynamic these two have! Even when the topic isn’t super interesting to me I find myself laughing along. My husband and I listen every week while we make our dogs food, he’s a huge fan now, and it makes it an infinitely more enjoyable task. I’m so excited they got picked up...Read full review »
Ab556 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/24
Massive oversight on my part as this podcast is one of my absolute favourites. Their sibling dynamic is so familiar, comforting and often laugh out loud funny. The topics covered range across all things spooky adjacent so there’s a great mix of old favourites and stuff I’ve never heard of....Read full review »
Ch82az via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/23/24
I began listening to GTTUPOD back in the “Brownies and Daniel Stern” era and gave it a glowing review several years ago. But I thought I would jump in at the end of the road to 1,000 and drop an updated review to see how the siblings stack up after all these years. The answer: better than ever!...Read full review »
Mkrix via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/24
The topics are great, the sibling banter is a joy, and I highly recommend!
Mrs.Badger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/24
Guide to the Unknown is my favorite podcast! I’ve been listening for about four years now and recently joined their Patreon - as I needed more Kristen and William in my life! I love listening to these siblings talk about some of my favorite topics - hauntings, cryptids, and horror movies. ...Read full review »

This is my favorite podcast! I have been listening to GTTU for years now. Their content has been entertaining from the beginning. Even when I think I might not be interested in a topic, I always find myself to be engaged. I really love the cold openers at the start of every episode, and the urban...Read full review »
enna_nanab via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/24
These guys have a great vibe and play off each other in the best way! They touch on a variety of paranormal, “monsters”, and cryptids and in some cases tie them back into pop culture. Great listen and highly recommended!
aimEde3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/24
GTTU is one of the absolute best podcasts! The hosts are so much fun and really know how to bring their supernatural topics to life. A definite must listen for anyone that’s interested in horror or the paranormal!
emmoran90 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/22/24
I have been listening to Kristen & Will since 2020. I don’t watch horror movies, have no idea what they are discussing most days but listening to their sibling chat makes it feel like my adult children are in the room. I laugh several times per episode and would highly recommend!
Nosanam via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/21/24
This podcast is definitely one of my comfort shows! Kristen and Will are just so soothing to listen to no matter what the topic is. I love that it feels like I’m sitting around the table and listening to my own siblings chat. Thank you both for this gem!
