David W. Preston founder and the voice behind The Other Side of Normal Podcast.
What started as a curiosity and late-night fascination with the strange, mysterious, and unexplained slowly turned into something bigger.
I carved out time to explore the stories that keep me awake at night — and now, I share them with you.
The podcast was founded from a simple idea: to dive deep into compelling tales, mysteries, and conspiracies, and present them with the kind of care and detail I wish I could find in every story.
I aim to make every episode not just informative, but an experience — something that lingers long after the headphones come off.
Being a busy dad with a full-time job and an amazing, intelligent, incredibly hard working wife we do our best to stay afloat and provide the best life we can to give our children exactly what they need. Love, support and fun.
Every moment I spend crafting an episode, researching every angle, and recording each story is part of a bigger goal: to succeed at something I truly love, to bring listeners along for the ride and support my family.
Whether you’re here for the mysteries, the deep dives, or just to escape for a while, I’m glad you’re here — and I hope you’ll stick around as this podcast grows and evolves, one episode at a time.
