Unexplained is a haunting and unsettling bi-weekly podcast about strange and mysterious real life events that continue to evade explanation. A story-based show mixing spoken-word narrative, history and ideas - often to terrifying effect - that explores the space between what we think of as real and what is not; where sometimes belief can be as concrete as ‘reality,’ whatever that is…

  • Cautionary Tales - Aliens in Wilshire

    Cautionary Tales - Aliens in Wilshire
    Oct 27 2026

    Cautionary Tales is one of my favourite podcasts, which I think you’ll love too if you haven’t already heard of it. So we're doing an episode swap for Halloween!

    Cautionary Tales is a historical podcast about mistakes and disasters from the past, and what we can learn from them today, narrated by journalist and author Tim Harford.

    In 1980s Britain, intricate patterns began appearing in farmers' fields—shapes pressed into the wheat by some unknown force—all under cover of darkness. What caused these crop circles?

    Could it be an alien language, magnetic fields, strange weather phenomena...or one big hoax? No one could agree, until a scientist came up with a way to test what was really behind them…

    This is Cautionary tales, Aliens in Wiltshire.

    I hope you enjoy it - and you can hear more Cautionary Tales wherever you listen to podcasts…

Each episode is something new and interesting. With a great variety of weird, sad, fascinating and mysterious topics. Highly recommend.

Consistently excellent and interesting

a real stand out piece of work in a genre where the is so much noise and hyperbole. this is the perfect antidote - fascinating tales of mystery and the bizzare, thoroughly researched and thoughtfully presented in an unhurried, relaxed and almost hypnotic manner. I particularly enjoyed the backing music that goes with each episode and look forward to winding down at the end of the day with the dulcet tones of RMS. a real treat .

fascinating, thoughtful and understated mystery podcast perfect for night time listening

Nice to hear a presenter who treats the subject matter with the respect it deserves, opposed to someone who is seemingly jacked up on red bull. Take a bow RMS.

Superb stories and narrative. Ads suck……..

I read the book, and was so excited to find it was based on a podcast. But wth! Why does he talk like he’s reading the time?! He sounds so bored. It’s really a big shame. The first episode was fine but it just changed to this weird voice. It is very distracting and now I can’t understand the story. It’s a no from me.

Why does he talk like this?

i love how Richard expands on any given story of the week and we get to hear about pop culture references, philosophy, metaphysics - it's not just about the thrilling story, but about what these stories and events tell us about ourselves. there is so much care put into how these stories are told too in the podcast
