There are few things more exciting than finding a new podcast to dive deep into during your next road trip or while you try to distract yourself during your latest trek on the treadmill. With spooky season officially here, many podcast listeners are looking for a podcast that offers chills and thrills – with a few laughs along the way. The One Strange Thing podcast recently celebrated its second anniversary, and more people are discovering the show thanks to awesome listener reviews.
As the host of One Strange Thing, Laurah Norton takes listeners on a mysterious journey in each episode. Always searching the nation’s local news archives for stories that can’t quite be explained, Laurah Norton identifies just how many stories are out there that can’t fully be explained. Do these stories prove the supernatural or simply show that coincidences happen? That’s for the listener to decide.
One Strange Thing started in September of 2020 and has proved that listeners love stories that blur the line between realism and surrealism. There’s something extra fun about listening to Laurah Norton during the Halloween season, as some of the stories can’t help but raise the hairs on the back of listeners’ necks. Popular episodes include an examination of an unexplained hum heard in Anchorage, Alaska, or reports of a lost ring that turned up on another continent without explanation. Ever heard of a house that bleeds? You will if you tune into One Strange Thing.
What listeners discover throughout each episode of One Strange Thing is that surreal happenings are seldom reported nationally. Amazing events that occur in a small town are often kept to that small town – until now. Through the art of podcasting, Laurah Norton is shedding light on these stories in fascinating tightly-knit stories.
Unlike some podcasts that seem to drag on or bounce around with its subject matter, Laurah Norton leverages her background as a researcher, writer, and educator to trim the fat and present stories with all the detail available. While some stories may be a bit freaky, all episodes are clean and appropriate for audiences of all ages. There are more than fifty episodes to listen to right now.
