  • True Tales: Mummy Medicine & The King's Lost Twin

    The boys are back in the same place again, so it's time for another round of true stories from the archives! Kurt tells Luis about one of the most unsettling things humanity has ever done & Luis tells Kurt about a bizarre coincidence with fatal consequences.


    Also, it's time for another round of Luis reaction noises, now renamed No Context Needed! Has Luis started remembering what he says on the podcast, or does he still have the attention span of an easily distracted goldfish? Time to find out!

  • Bounty Hunter Bamboozle & The Janitor King

    In an ever growing world, set to reach a population of over 9 billion people by the end of the decade, there must be someone that looks just like you, right?

    In this episode, Luis tells Kurt two stories of some of history's greatest doppelgangers, and how their lookalikes sometimes bit more than they could chew. Become a movie star, become an outlaw, become a royal, no one will ever know it was never really you.

    P.S. We learn Luis's secret obsession with Ska music. Be very afraid.

  • The Computer Pandemic & The Sound Ghost & Eternal Blue

    The times they are a-changin, and it's a-terrifying! We're going to the future in this episode! Kurt tells Luis about the cyberwar that caused a digital pandemic, the A.I. that loved Beethoven a little too much, and the leaked government weapon that nearly crippled the world.


    Windows users look out! The digital boot of the US military is (accidentally) coming for you! Reeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

  • A Tale Of Two Cannons & The Vengeful Privateers

    Boom! Crack! Pow! That's right, pirates are attacking! And they're really angry at the Spanish, for some reason.

    Luis tells Kurt about the cannonball that started a religion and how a single man's grudge led to a complete destabilization of European hegemony (yes, really).

    So gather your pirate ships and your distrust of the Spanish Empire and join us as we somehow try to make sense of the absolute chaos that was the 16th century.

  • The Secret Hippocampus Blood Formula & My Boyfriend in the Attic

    Kurt tells Luis about one of the weirdest things Marie Antoinette ever contributed to the world, and the early-hollywood villain (and woman of Luis's dreams) who really took sweet & psychotic to the max!

    Is the US government hoarding a secret mass supply of hippocampus blood? Are you unknowingly hoarding a secret small supply of hippocampus blood? What even is hippocampus blood? All of these questions (sort of) answered in this episode!

  • The Crusader Tax & Accidental Compass Discovery

    Luis tells Kurt about the greatest magic trick of all time: how Richard the Lionheart's love of taxes made England's French colonies disappear, while somehow also pulling the Magna Carta out of the hat.

    Also, if it weren't for preppy rich kids, we wouldn't know how to use the compass for nautical purposes. Money can't buy you happiness, but it can certainly make sailing around the world easier.

  • The Lost Franklin Expedition & The Foul Weather Lineage

    Kurt tells Luis about the brave (and somewhat odd) explorers who set out to make history in the new world (just not in the way they expected), and the man who laid down the law hunting pirates, only to have his sleaze-ball grandson turn his legacy on its head years later. Tonights accompanying meal will include aged boot (1972) and a bit of pirate prosciutto (very salty), topped with a heaping scoop of deception!


    Ignorance is bliss!

  • A Year of Schemes & Shenanigans

    Happy Birthday to us! Unbelievable is officially one year old, and the boys are celebrating by sharing some of their favorite clips. In a futile attempt to show some character growth since the start of the pod, the boys have managed to distill Unbelievable down to its purest form, get ready for a big dose of Roman mid-life crises, dog psychologists, and ohhhh so many butts!

  • The Stolen Prototype & Demon Dog Possession

    Kurt tells Luis about the international scandal full of mad science, secrets, and Mardi Gras parties galore, and the story of a bridge that really really doesn't like dogs. Are you ready for detailed debates on canine psychology, underwear superstitions, and mink urine? Well please give us a chance anyway...

    Also, by complete coincidence, both the boys prepared surprise quizzes for each other (maybe they should kiss)

About Unbelievable!

From the publisher's feed

Luis and Kurt take turns telling each other two unbelievable historical stories, one true and one fake, and letting the other try to guess which is which.
