Have you ever felt like an alien on Earth? Do you look at things we do on Earth and think, "Why do we do these things?" Why do we let hoards of wealth concentrate on a few individuals while others starve? Why are we actively killing our precious ecosystems, the things that literally keep us alive? Well if you have, you're like me. You're an alien looking in on the human race. Let's explore what we see when we take this perspective. Let's turn our every day on its head.


In this podcast, the team at The Alien Among You will explore evidence-based arguments for why we think some things that we do on Earth make no sense, then look into ways we can improve our planet for all, and have some fun doing it along the way. To try and keep things fresh, will have several types of episodes. Some short-form episodes will look at cool Earth things. Longer episodes will explore an aspect of Earth that makes no sense to us and how we can change it. We will invite experts on for interviews to give us their views and criticisms on topics that we have covered. And finally, we will have guests that just want to have some fun!


So stick around fellow Aliens, lets make the world a better place and have a blast doing it!

  • ADC - Cavities and How They Actually Work

    ADC - Cavities and How They Actually Work
    2026/09/16

    You bring your 5 year-old to the dentist. Today, they will be taking x-rays for the first time. But you're not worried - you're confident that your child is cavity free. You and your family are master brushes and flossers. But to your dismay, the dentist says that there are cavities between all the back teeth. How is this possible? We were so careful about candy and pop!

    These are what we call surprise cavitites. In this episode, we will explore how cavities actually work and what foods tend to cause them so we can see how exactly to avoid such unpleasant surprises. Being a dentist by trade, It would be shameful not to make an episode about cavities, so here we are!

    Enjoy!

  • Alien Confusion: Imagine Never Stopping at a Red Light Again

    Alien Confusion: Imagine Never Stopping at a Red Light Again
    2026/09/13

    Traffic lights are everywhere you look in North America. We don't think twice about them. Traffic circles and roudabouts on the other hand, they seem to have a bad rap. But really, it should be the opposite. They are better than traffic lights in most metrics.

    Traffic lights seem like a good solution to the obvious threat of cars crashing into each other - they are certainly better than nothing. But high speeds, complicated intersections and bad human decision-making make traffic lights much more dangerous than you think. By design, traffic circles eliminate these concerns overnight. The argument for why traffic circles are better is not circular. It's pretty straightforward.

    Let me show the alien perspective on why traffic circles and roudabouts are much better than trafffic lights.

    Enjoy!

    Alien Dinner Conversation - Sunsets are Red, Clear Skies are Blue, Let's Find out Why, so we all Have a Clue
    2026/09/07

    You are watching a striking sunset. The candy red, orange, pink and yellow, meting together. You just can't take your eyes off of it. No wonder it's one of the most universally beloved sights. It's immediately clear why it's so beautiful. But...you can't stop yourself from wondering: what kind of crazy physics make sunsets beautiful? And for that matter, why is the sky blue? Why is it not any other color?

    Your inner alien wants to know! Perhaps one of the most common science questions ever asked, we needed to do an episode on this!

    In this short-form episode, we will attempt to answer these two questions in an approachable way: Why is the sky blue and why are sunsets red?

    We hope you have fun sharing this alien dinner conversation!
