For decades, a low-frequency buzzing sound has plagued the residents of Taos, New Mexico. It’s a sound that only some can hear, yet it has driven scientific inquiries, sparked wild conspiracy theories, and deeply impacted the local culture.

In this episode, we dive deep into the phenomenon known as the Taos Hum. We’ll explore its history; dating back to the early 1990s when residents first began reporting the unsettling noise, and look at the formal scientific investigations that left researchers scratching their heads. From secret military projects and underground geology to psychological phenomena, we break down the top theories explaining what might be happening in the desert southwest. Plus, we share stories from the "hearers" who live with this acoustic mystery every single day.
