ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Aloha and welcome to a brand-new experimental series from Strange Tides—Beyond the Waves. This is a trial run, a fresh format where we paddle out past our usual shoreline of hauntings and cryptids and dive deep into the media, stories, and theories that shape the world of high strangeness.
In this debut episode, we crack open The Time Machine by H. G. Wells—a sci-fi classic that doesn’t just explore time travel, but the evolution (and possible downfall) of humanity itself. We’ll break down the story, its themes, and how it still ripples through modern ideas about the future, technology, and the unknown.
But we’re not stopping at fiction.
We’ll also take a quick detour into the stranger side of time travel lore, looking at the internet-famous case of John Titor and the wild story of Andrew Carlssin—two figures who allegedly slipped through time and left behind trails of speculation, conspiracy, and unanswered questions.
This is Beyond the Waves—a new kind of Strange Tides session where books, movies, and high strangeness collide. If this one rides right, there’s plenty more out there waiting beyond the break.
