“I’ve listened to every episode except the Bigfoot-focused ones (I just can’t with that thing). It’s been 12 years and the show has evolved accordingly, with the last few years focusing more on the philosophy and psychology of monsters, and less on debunking. Their guests are, without fail, a joy to listen to, very knowledgeable and articulate and coming to us from places as far-flung as Japan and Australia and Ireland. I found this podcast after binging “Lore” and wanting a little more credulity. The reviews that make me laugh: the ones who say Blake and Karen are condescending (because academic thought is way too much for those listeners) and the ones who say they are mean in their skepticism (TRUST me, they have shown a god-like sense of restraint when speaking with believers. They may even be nicer than they should be!). This podcast hits all the right notes for those who, like the hosts, adore monsters but would really love some actual proof, and those who want to think deeply about the sociology surrounding monsters and what they inevitably, of course, tell us what it is to be human. Love y’all. P.S. Blake, your puns man…you are on thin ice.”

“I don't believe in any of this stuff, but to sit here and listen to you guys snort and snicker, making general comments about how silly the ideas are and implying how stupid the believers are is boring and counter-productive...you already know that it's difficult enough proving a negative...”Read full review »
