In a coroner’s report, the word “undetermined” is used to describe the cause or manner of death when there’s insufficient evidence to lend a more specific classification. In 2019, Jessica Easterly Durning went missing from her New Orleans home; her body was found days later, just two and a half blocks away. Her death was classified as undetermined, but due to evidence of foul play, her friends and family believe someone played a role in her suspicious disappearance. Investigative journalist Jessica Noll and former Detective Todd McComas dig deep into this unsolved case and search for answers to Jessica’s untimely death. From the team that brought you ‘To Live and Die in LA’ and ‘Culpable’, this is ‘Undetermined’.
High Strange Season 2, Episode 1 - Friendly Universe
What if the universe is not hostile, just misunderstood. We open the season by asking whether being alone ever really made sense, and why the idea of something else out there feels oddly familiar now.

High Strange is Back! New Season, New Mysteries!
High Strange Season 2 goes deeper into real encounters, credible witnesses, and the explanations that never seem to stick. More firsthand accounts. Bigger moments. And more times where the official story starts to wobble.
This isn’t about believing everything. It’s about following the story until it actually makes sense… or until it gets too strange to ignore.
New season. Same curiosity. Same skepticism.
Still probably not a weather balloon.

Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

Payne Lindsey presents High Strange Season 2!

[…] When enough things in the weird bucket started adding up, actually showing similarities, that's where I got involved. They laid out all of these MRIs. They said, some of these people said that they'd gotten close to UFOs. That they got close to a UFO. So when they told you this, did they literally say, like, they came in contact with a UFO? They said some of these people said that they got close to a UFO. And that something about the energy generated by the object had harmed them. I literally looked around. I thought, this is Candid Camera. What's going on? For him, it wasn't the fantastical stories. […]
