I absolutely adore these podcasts. My sister & I can spend hours chatting just like this... One of us will see or hear something interesting, from one tiny spark a momentous conversation ranges across diverse subjects, from kids to cannibals, aromatherapy to Zulu traditions... Random (sometimes) useless information is our "thing". Thank you all. Annie

If history was a giant puzzle, these would be the cheeky kids giggling in the corner, connecting the pieces in ways you never thought possible. A big shout-out to the hosts' infectious passion, which makes every episode a fun trip through history

Rabbit Hole Detectives is a hilarious, mind-blowing tour through history’s weirdest relics. The hosts are so passionate, you’d think they were born in a museum! I kid you not, this podcast is the Indiana Jones of history pods. 🔍 you make learning a riot! 😂
