  • 626: Project Anchor: NASA's Secret Gravity Shutdown Program
    Feb 2 2026

    You wake up floating above your bed. Everything in your room drifts toward the ceiling. Outside, cars lift off highways and trees rip from the ground. According to a leaked government document, this happens on August 12th, 2026 — and NASA has known since 2019.

    Project Anchor describes a 7-second gravitational shutdown that would kill 850 million people. The document is a hoax. But here's what isn't: we still don't understand what gravity actually is. Einstein described how it behaves, not what causes it. The graviton has never been detected. And for 70 years, anti-gravity research has been classified at levels above Top Secret.

    Scientists who got too close have disappeared. Some came back. Some didn't. What exactly did they find?

  • 625: Unexplained Phenomena: The Dead Village, Rain Phenomena, YouTube Mystery
    Jan 23 2026

    Gather round for three campfire stories that cannot be explained.

    A corrections officer watches water materialize inside a concrete prison cell with no source. A YouTube channel uploads 72,000 videos in nine months at an impossible rate, then vanishes after pointing to coordinates in the Atlantic Ocean.

    Three Royal Navy cadets walk into an English village and find themselves surrounded by rotting oxen, frozen smoke, and watchers behind dark windows. These aren't urban legends or campfire tales passed down through generations.

    These are documented events with multiple witnesses—police officers, prison officials, military personnel, and investigators who went on record about what they saw. Water that falls upward. Channels that shouldn't exist. Villages trapped in time.

    Each story breaks something fundamental about how we understand reality. The witnesses had everything to lose and nothing to gain.

    Yet they couldn't deny what happened.

  • 624: Ancient Prophecies Predicted Hitler's Rise and Fall
    Jan 19 2026

    For centuries, prophets across different lands described the same coming disaster. A German leader would rise with a voice that could move nations.

    Ancient Jewish scribes embedded something strange in their text—Hebrew letters that pointed to a specific year: 1946. That October, ten Nazi war criminals stood before the gallows at Nuremberg.

    One of them whispered his final words: "Purimfest 1946." The Nazis believed they could manufacture their own destiny through prophecy and occult manipulation.

    They edited ancient texts, built an empire on mysticism, and murdered anyone who predicted the wrong future. But there was one prophecy they couldn't control.

    The pattern was already written, waiting two thousand years to return.

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!

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
