Words Weekend 2019
Unexplained Podcast Live
Join us as we welcome Richard MacLean Smith – the originator of Unexplained – which has been described as “the world’s spookiest podcast” for a live recording of the show. In his bi-weekly podcast Richard discusses some of the strange and mysterious real life events that continue to evade explanation. This is a show about the space between what we think of as real and what is not. Where the unknown and paranormal meets some of the most radical ideas in science today. When something is inexplicable, that mystery in itself can become the story. In many ways, it is often the lure of the mystery that keeps us coming back for more… And maybe, ultimately, some things are just better left unexplained…
