IRO isn’t updated as regularly/often as some of my other favorite podcasts, but oh man, is it worth the wait. Jeb and Blake play off each other very well and both are such amazing researchers. If you’re a paranormal nerd or a fan of In Search Of, you need these two geeks and their wonderful podcast in your life.

I’m 50 years old and remember watching this program on A&E and later on The History Channel. I now have it on dvd which is great. This podcast is so entertaining, knowledgeable and informative. I really enjoy the fact that the podcasters take into consideration the fact of when these episodes were filmed and how much has changed in 40-45 years since. Looking forward to season four which is my favorite season of In Search Of…

Shadowlord-72 · Jan 2023

I am really enjoying this show and I am glad I found it in 2022, so I have lots of content to binge. Finally decided to review because I was shocked when I hear my undergrad advisor mentioned in the Troy episode… but I am not sure why I am so shocked- the archaeology world is small so of course one of these episodes would mention a professor I had at some point in my schooling. This show has made my long drives much more pleasant, as I feel almost as if I am having a conversation with kindred spirits. This is the kind of niche content I love to hear.

I love this show SO MUCH! Blake and Jeb are such a wonderful podcasting team. They’re BOTH the comedians AND the straight men. The episode “Psychic Sea Hunt” is absolutely top notch entertainment. It was so funny and informative and entertaining that I finally felt nothing but shame for NOT giving this show a stellar review. I’ve been a fan of these two disembodied voices since the two-part Shaver Mysteries episodes of Monster Talk. The only thing missing from this episode is Dr. Jerry Drake. If he had been on this episode, I would’ve broken Apple’s rating system to give this episode SIX STARS!

Timothy Fischer · Jun 2022

The start of each person speaking is often missing the first syllable or word. To fix this, turn off the automatic noise gate.

It's alright; I'm a doctor. · May 2023

When the hosts stick to the topic it is a solid show but when they let their ideologies and political leanings leak into the show’s content, it stains the quality of the show. There are so many podcasts out there with agendas and political partiality already that a podcast positioned based on research, should remove any trace of partiality. There are other podcasts out there that do this well so personally, after listening to a handful, I won’t be coming back.
