  • 620: The Lost Labyrinth of Hawara: Evidence of Atlantis in Egypt
    Dec 17 2025
    In 450 BC, Herodotus described an Egyptian labyrinth so massive it made the pyramids look small. Then it vanished under the desert for 2,000 years.

    In 2008, scientists used ground-penetrating radar and found it—a massive structure 40 feet underground covering ten football fields. The Egyptian government immediately shut down all research.

    Satellite imaging later revealed four underground levels and a 130-foot metallic object at the center. The researcher who published his findings was permanently blacklisted.

    Ancient priests told Herodotus the deepest chambers held burial vaults of the kings who first built the labyrinth—not pharaohs, but whoever came before them. If they're right, Egyptian civilization didn't develop over centuries.

    It was inherited from something older.

  • 619: They Walk Among Us | The Human-Alien Hybrid Program
    Dec 6 2025
    A college student desperate for affordable housing gets matched with an unusual roommate who wears sunglasses indoors and speaks like a careful robot.

    When the student's mother visits and accidentally touches the girl's arm, the skin feels wrong—cold and spongy like raw mushrooms.

    What happens next reveals a classified military program, a family connection that defies physics, and a tragedy born from teaching someone to be too human.

  • 618: The First Earth Battalion: America's Strangest Military Experiment
    Nov 26 2025
    A Vietnam War hero with zero casualties wrote a manual about warrior monks who hug daily and use ESP in combat. Instead of dismissing it, the US Army turned it into Project Jedi—a decades-long experiment in psychic warfare. Generals tried walking through walls.

    Intelligence officers hosted spoon-bending parties. Soldiers stared at goats until their hearts stopped. The CIA spent millions on remote viewers who claimed to see Soviet secrets thousands of miles away. Most experiments failed, but the successful techniques became foundational to modern Special Forces training.

    This is the true story of America's psychic soldier program and how a hippie field manual accidentally revolutionized military operations.

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
