Hello, it's Noam, and I've got some big news. We can finally tell you what we've been up to the last few weeks. And months, Unexplainable, is coming to Netflix. We're going to have a weekly video show starting this coming Monday, July 13th. And don't worry, we're still going to get two episodes a week right here in our audio feed. Every Monday, you'll get the same episode as Netflix right here for your ears. and every Wednesday you'll get another new episode just for the audio feed.

We're so excited to finally show you some of the things we could only talk about before, like bioluminescence in the depths of the ocean, or the most mind-bending photos from the James Webb Space Telescope, or hot pink flying squirrels glowing under UV light. The Netflix show starts this Monday, and we can't wait to see you there.

Until then, here's a little taste of what we're cooking up. I was nine or ten years old. I just turned my head slowly to the left, and it's rising up out of the ground. This ball of light. And, of course, my first thought is... What am I seeing? This is not real. I'm like, what? Is that?

It's a good question. What is that? How is that? Come on. You're not serious, right? Unexplanable is a show about questions that take over your life. Are there different ways that humans might be dead? What don't you understand about love?

Do we live inside of an enormous black hole? Why is this dog eating his owner's face if he loves him? Why do we cry? How will we be remembered? What did you do next? I kept on being like, yeah, but what if I eat it? Unexplainable is a show about everything we don't know. You really have no choice but to just let your mind go wild.

And all the people chasing after answers. Does it ever feel like an almost impossible task? It's the unknown. Unexplainable is going to take you right up to the edge of what we know. We have no clue what's going on at the outer edge of the galaxy. And then we're going to go explore it. Exploring is better than sex. All the thrill and none of the baggage.

New episodes every Monday and Wednesday with new video episodes every Monday on Netflix. Unexplainable. A podcast from Vox. Now on Netflix.
