We have an episode with Will Cowan, the busiest man in showbiz (that I know personally). He takes some time from his band and podcast network to join Braden for a chat! First, Braden tells a story about a man who single-handedly (heh) created a sperm bank exclusively "populated" (heh) from Nobel Prize laureates at an incredibly worryingly recent time. Then, Will combines his two podcasts and tells Braden the story of the ...

It's yet ANOTHER episode where Braden invites a guest to do half his work! Tiktoker Tee joins Braden to hear the story of one of the most famous Polish soldiers in history, and to share how you can start growing your plants with copper wire, and why Big Pesticide wants you to not do that thing.

For this current episode, Braden welcomes a man who not only talks into microphones for a living, BUT ALSO IN FRONT OF A CAMERA! ON the eve of his first year anniversary into this media industry, Gates goes into detail on one of the Canadian gems of broadcasting: Big Brother Canada. Braden returns with the TRUE story of the Lost Colony of Roanoke, and the super obvious answer as to what happened to them.

Today, I bring you two stories: one of the inspiration behind one of Beethoven's most enduring works, and one of a man who saw America spread out in front of him and thought "WHY CAN'T THEY JUST STOP HAVING SO MUCH SEX WITH EACH OTHER?...

Hi Everyone! This episode is going to be considerably more freeform than anything else that I've released. Really, it's kind of going to be a State of the Podcast sort of deal, put together as something of a fireside chat. 

(Plus Sara and Craig are in dire need of some time off, so I'm more than happy to give it to them!)

We have another Christmas-ish episode here on What?! Explain. For this episode, we tell the story of the friendship of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, two authors with very different philosophies on writing, but still very good friends. Well, right up until Lewis wanted to put Santa Claus into the Chronicles of Narnia.

This is a story about a treasure of unusual proportions, hidden within a massive cavern in the center of the United States. A hoard brought together by the United States government over half a century ago, and still maintained to this day. This is a story of... The Great American Cheese Vaults.

There's YET ANOTHER episode of What?! No, YOU Explain., and this time, we look to our own team! For the first time in front of the microphone on this show, it's the owner of a very soothing baritone, sound engineer extraordinaire, Craig Murdock!

This episode has two stories, both containing music and questionably earned military rank! I tell the story of Colonel Tom Parker, manager to the stars (or so he would sa...

It's almost that scariest time of year here at What?! Explain. : HALLOWEEN! So we decided to give you not one, but two spooky stories! The first involving a woman determined to wield the forces of the supernatural against the criminal element, while the second involves a series of taxi drivers who picked up... unusual passengers. 

Note for the listeners: Apparently there was a bit of strange audio interference right a...

It's ANOTHER episode of the show where Braden... TALKS TO OTHER PEOPLE?! 

This episode, Braden welcomes podcaster, songwriter, guitarist, singer, and fellow interrobang (the ?!) enthusiast Nathan Iles to the show! 

Nathan is the co-host of Last Gen Arcade, where he and his fellow host Will Cowan go through history's favorite games and answer the age old question: how do your favorite games hold up?

There's not many people that know of Wall Street that don't have an opinion on what it represents. Anchored within these eight blocks are financial houses and stock exchange that have billions of dollars flowing through them on a daily basis. It is well known that what happens on Wall Street has ripple effects all the way across the United States, and in some cases, the world. 

However, the history of how this st...
