An audio guide to the world’s strange, incredible, and wondrous places. Co-founder Dylan Thuras and a neighborhood of Atlas Obscura reporters explore a new wonder every day, Monday through Thursday. In under 15 minutes, they’ll take you to an incredible place, and along the way, you’ll meet some fascinating people and hear their stories. Our theme and end credit music is composed by Sam Tyndall.
Christmas Monsters with Colin Dickey
Writer and friend of the show Colin Dickey tries to destroy Dylan’s holiday cheer with arguments about why Christmas is actually full of monsters from around the world.
(Just a note for parents listening with little ones, Dylan and Colin talk frankly about Santa and his surrounding lore.)
Check out Colin’s Atlas Obscura column, Eerie Feeling.
