Each 25,000-word installment zooms in on a single island to explore its bizarre past, fascinating present, and the stories that have clung to its shores like stubborn barnacles.

From volcanic blips inhabited by scientists and puffins to ghost towns marooned in tropical waters, to micronations with more flags than people, this series goes where your travel app won’t. Think of it as true crime meets geography class meets an unexpectedly passionate love letter to obscure cartography.

These aren’t your average vacation spots – unless your idea of a getaway includes derelict lighthouses, Cold War surveillance stations, or a goat population outnumbering humans 10 to 1.

With a blend of storytelling, history, and just the right dose of “wait, this place is real?”, Islands with Impact (The Quirky Ones) celebrates the lonely, the legendary, and the just plain weird.
