About this podcast
Join us, HT, Lucas, and Matt, as we embark on a curiosity fueled quest. Each week, one of us will pick a topic that we find interesting, funny, weird, or strange, and present it to each other in the hopes that by the end, we'll all know a little bit more about the world.
Episodes drop every other Thursday.
