The Outsider

Perfect for listeners who are skeptical of official explanations, fascinated by mysteries, and hungry to explore competing explanations, The Outsider is an investigative report that ventures into the strange corners of American life—mysterious coincidences, forgotten incidents, institutional failures, and questions that conventional coverage overlooked. Host Sam wanders into rabbit holes with the listener, skeptical and curious, asking uncomfortable questions and following evidence wherever it leads. Sometimes the conventional explanation wins. Sometimes the alternative has merit. Sometimes the entire premise collapses because somebody misunderstood a photograph from 1974. We are willing to look. We are not promising what we will find.
