I’ve recently started listening to the Mysterious Universe podcast and I simply can’t get enough of this strange, engaging and endlessly entertaining show. Hosted by Ben and Aaron, the show looks at the paranormal, fringe science, supernatural occurrences including cryptid encounters, UFO abductions, sightings and other high-weirdness.
The show is really well produced with awesome music and the interaction between Ben and Aaron is tremendous. The show format includes reporting, commentary and the occasional interview with various special guests from across various paranormal fields. You can also sign up for their Plus+ membership which I plan on doing.
To get some background on the show, you can catch the transcript of an interview with the two hosts here. As an additional side note, their show has to be one of the best branded Pod Shows I’ve ever seen. I’d venture to guess one or both of the hosts have some design background because the aesthetics of the show are impeccable.

Couldn’t agree more. The highlites of my week are the main episode and the weekend plus. My commute is so much more bearable thanks to Ben and Aaron.
Fantastic, I couldn’t agree more. These guys and their construction of the show are fantastic!
HOW did I survive without Mysterious Universe? I can’t imagine my life w/out it now!!
And I’d recommend folks sign on to the Plus+ episodes.
Completely agree. I was a fan early in Season One, and I totally enjoy Plus episodes. The music links in the show notes are wonderful too…lots of new stuff to listen to.
Yeah, I just went plus and think the additional content is fantastic. I’d recommend other listeners plus things up as well. Ben and Aaron certainly put a lot into the shows.
And I agree about the music – there’s quite a bit of it I’d like to download.
