Weird-Science, lost civilizations, UFOs, and Nazis — this story has more threads than a fancy bedsheet set!

Some links from the Hollow Earth introduction

There’s lots more discussed in the episode and in part 2’s show notes. Here are a few more helpful links:

  • Dan Loxton’s Junior Skeptic Hollow Earth coverage Part 1 and Part 2 were very helpful.
  • Wired magazine’s 2014 Hollow Earth article was also useful for me.
  • I haven’t read it, but 2004’s book-length bibliography of Hollow World texts Subterranean Worlds looks both comprehensive and interesting.
