    Avi Loeb is the Frank B. Baird Jr. Professor of Science at Harvard University, a internationally bestselling author, and one of the most decorated astronomers alive. He earned his PhD in Physics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem at 24, led the first international project supported by the Strategic Defense Initiative, and spent five years at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton before joining Harvard.

  • 636: Vanished: Three Disappearances Nobody Can Explain
    Mar 20 2026

    Gather round for three missing persons cases that investigators, search teams, and forensic experts have never been able to explain.

    A medical student disappeared from a packed bar in Columbus, Ohio — a building covered in cameras, with one way in and one way out. Police confirmed he never left. The footage proves he entered.

    A family of three vanished from the Oklahoma mountains, leaving behind their dog, their cash, and a piece of security footage that still disturbs everyone who watches it.

    A nineteen-year-old called his father from the side of a dark road in Minnesota. They stayed on the phone for forty-seven minutes. Then one word — and the line went dead.

    No bodies recovered in two cases. No suspects charged in any of them. Three families left with open case files and no explanation that holds together.

Fun, informative, and full of light-hearted mystery. I like how things are debunked when the evidence disproves the legend, but there's always an opening for wondering about more. Plus Hecklefish is absolutely hilarious! He's the little voice in our heads let loose on the world.

Gertie loves to dance!

I love the stories and mysteries discussed on the show. The fact based approach is also very welcome to debunk certain stories and lend credibility to others.

Excellent series!

The Why Files podcast is a truly one-of-a-kind cast. It’s whimsical, sometimes Sophomoric, but fast-paste, and data-dense. The podcast offers up references, and are easily accessed via their notes section for each episode. Each episode is unique, some far-flung, some physics-centric (which I like, especially at the theoretical and quantum levels), but all have a storyline that draws you into the topic. It’s how I wish more formal educational ventures were presented and pursued.

The Why Files is fast-paced, entertaining, willing to consider any topic, and embeds outstanding info & references
