Across the UK, across continental North America, at around the world, on the internet, by webcast, and by podcast, my name is Howard Hughes, and this is the unexplained.

Well, we're well into March now, the spring is just around the corner, although with the weather here in the UK you wouldn't particularly be noticing that, we've had certain amount of rain.

Even a certain amount of snow in some places, but you cannot.

Deny the March of Time, and I'm sure that the weather will turn warm soon. In fact, I'm told it will turn warm air within days.

You know me, and my attitude to the winter, I can't wait. But who knows, there may be some surprises along the way.

So we're not going to predict anything here.

Thank you very much for your recent donations and your emails. I'm going to do a lot of shoutouts on this edition, and also bring you some very important news about this show.

Now look, you and I have been on a 10 year journey with the unexplained, taking it from something that was a very embryonic podcast almost exactly 10 years ago, to where we are now, couldn't have done any of it without Adam, a creative hot spot in Liverpool, who's helped me enormously to learn the potential of this medium.

But above all, I couldn't have done it without you supporting me because you've proved to me that you're there.

The numbers for this show are growing all the time, and now we're going to take another little, another little direction. I guess you can call it.

So we're heading off on another phase of the journey, more on that very soon.

A ton of shoutouts to do. I promised you I would do these. So let's get into them. If you don't hear your name and you want to hear it, let me know.

First of all, Jay, thank you for your email pointing out that I didn't mention on the show the passing of Dr Edgar Mitchell, who of course was a guest on this show more than five years ago.

Apollo astronaut. Very interesting man of great erudition, and somebody I will never forget having the privilege to speak to.

And I'm sorry that I just with the run of things I didn't get the chance to mention it. I covered it on the radio.

But you're right. We should have mentioned it here. He will be much missed. He was a man with the right stuff, well and truly.

Garith, thank you for your personal experiences and your nice email.

Howard says, bears, although we've never met, I've been introduced to your work, which accompanies me over lonely mountain tops here in Ireland, as I conduct my own research.

And you have become a welcome friend on journeys. Nice to hear from you, Barry. Michael Green, JFK, some information on that and him. Thank you for that.

Hi, Howard. I'm a regular listener to your show. I enjoy listening and have heard some great stuff over the years. Some shows better than others, I think. But after 40 minutes of Merrill, thank house.

I hope I've got the chap's name right. Yes, you have. I had to switch off says Mark in Kingston upon Thames in London on the London Surrey border.

Okay, well horses for courses, lot of good email about Merrill, thank house. Yours was the first one I had not liking that show, but look, you know, everybody is entitled to a view. That's what it's all about.
