More of Vox’s Unexplainable podcast is coming your way! Starting today, the award-winning show — which explores mysteries in science and beyond — will publish twice a week, on Mondays and Wednesdays. Unexplainable isn’t about finding an answer or defining some phenomenon, but about trying to see the world in new ways, revealing how much there still is to learn, and celebrating the wonder we’ve yet to discover. A refreshed brand identity reflects this spirit and helps mark the series’ expansion.
To kick off its new increased cadence, the show will debunk a favorite myth among us Homo sapiens: Turns out, Neanderthals were smart. During the next few weeks, Unexplainable will take you to the inside of a volcano, to an imaginary planet that feels extremely real, and to meet a scientist who walks butterflies around a lab on leashes. Fans will get the same great work they’ve come to expect, twice as often.
This expansion was led by senior supervising producer Meredith Hoddinott, along with editorial director Jorge Just, co-host Noam Hassenfeld, senior producer Byrd Pinkerton, engineer Cristian Ayala, and the show’s newest member, co-host Julia Longoria, who also hosted the Good Robot audio documentary in the Unexplainable feed.
