About the Podcast

Welcome to a podcast where we talk first, research later. Starting off with our candid thoughts in part one, we then look at the facts to separate myth from reality in part two of each episode. We cover diverse topics to include science, nature, human tendencies, how things are made, history, technology and much more! This podcast is our way of exposing our knowledge gaps and figuring out the facts. Come along as we dig for answers, question everything, and satisfy our curiosity together.

Cassie Underwood

Hi everyone, I’m one of your hosts and an avid learner who can’t stop asking ‘why’. I’ve always been curious about how things work, why things happen, and what’s behind the curtain. Whether it’s science, history, technology or just random questions that pop into my head, I am constantly seeking answers. This podcast is my space to explore those questions in depth and finally find answers.
