Episode Details

In the quiet desert town of Taos, New Mexico, a small percentage of residents have reported hearing something strange for decades—a low, persistent hum with no clear source.Some describe it as a distant engine. Others say it feels more like a vibration than a sound. But the most unsettling part?Most people can’t hear it at all.In the early 1990s, complaints grew loud enough to trigger a government-backed investigation involving scientists from Los Alamos, Sandia National Laboratories, and the University of New Mexico. They tested for acoustic, seismic, and electromagnetic signals using highly sensitive equipment.They found… almost nothing.No clear source. No consistent explanation. Just a conclusion that left more questions than answers.⸻About the showKat Has Questions is a curiosity-driven podcast about real stories that sound unreal — from unsolved crimes and strange history to the quietly weird corners of human behavior.New episodes every week.⸻Support the ShowIf you’re enjoying Kat Has Questions, follow the podcast, leave a review, or send in a weird historical mystery you want me to dig into next.Support the show (Patreon): https://patreon.com/KatHasQuestions?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLinkSupport the show & buy me a coffee: buymeacoffee.com/kathasquesw⸻
