Damn Interesting is an award-winning and award-losing independent enterprise committed to presenting amazing but little-known genuine stories. A tiny business, but a dozen or so people work together to find, write, and record the most fascinating stories in science, history, and psychology. Quality over quantity, and accuracy over exaggeration, are ardent supporters. The platform tells as many fascinating genuine tales as it can. Alan Bellows launched Damn Interesting in 2005 as an independent website. True stories from science, history, and psychology are presented on the website in the form of long-form articles, which are frequently accompanied by creative artwork. Various writers contribute to the works, which are published at irregular periods. The website refuses to accept advertising and instead relies on reader and listener donations to fund its expenditures. The firm has received honors and recognition from the New York Times, The Atlantic, and The Browser in a short period of time following its founding. In 2012, the first piece was released as a podcast, and it needed to reach a large audience. The third podcast, Damn Interesting Curio Cabinet, began spotlighting the website's periodic short-form pieces in the same radio play structure as the first podcast, with unscripted comments on a variety of news stories published on the website's Curated Links section that week.
