Welcome to Curious State

Can animals break the law? Haven’t all the possible songs been written by now? Can a "friends with benefits" relationship last? Could we have domesticated a T-Rex?

Howdy, reader/podcast lover/wonderful human. Doug here. I’m the producer and host of Curious State—where we’ll dive into what you didn’t know you needed to know about fascinating things like:

The cultural downfall of pigeons
Mafia violence: is it all a mind game?
Modern-day vampires (spoiler alert: they exist)
The purpose of regret
Nature’s hot take on cannibalism
And so much more

Through interviews, research, and conversation, I find myself in the company of unforgettable answers. Which lead to more questions—but that’s half the fun.

Check out the trailer below.
