An educational comedy podcast for the wonderfully weird.
Join Alex and Harlie every Monday as they dive headfirst into bizarre world events, odd historical twists, and stories you definitely didn’t cover in high school.
From the quirky to the downright baffling, each episode is packed with laughter, curiosity, and unexpected lessons about the human experience.
Expect strange tales, sharp wit, and a welcoming dose of community.
Because learning should be weirdly fun.
And remember, Should You Need Us, we’ll be here!
Extra! Extra! Listen all about it! This week Alex uncovers Washingtons first UFO sighting! The Maury Island Incident of 1947. It starts with a quiet day on Puget Sound and ends with falling white lava goo and the very first appearance of the infamous Men in Black.

Ep.20 One Stop too Soon, Monorail Boy
Yes, we are the problem. You can fact check us on that, because sometimes Alex genuinely can’t remember whether a story happened in real life or in a Simpsons episode. This week’s episode is chock‑full of scams, butt lifts, condom taxes, and a few questionable conversations about AI.
But the real story? Seattle’s beloved Monorail. It arrived as a gleaming promise of the future but ended as one of the city’s most spectacular transit scams.
