The host of The Mind of Magnus has always been fascinated by the complexities of the human mind—how it navigates this chaotic world and uncovers strange, wonderful factoids along the way. Through captivating interviews and quirky insights, he shares his ever-evolving discoveries with his audience.

For over 20 years, The Mind of Magnus has taken listeners on a journey, starting in the early days of internet radio on the Multiply Broadcast Network and Live365, transitioning to various terrestrial stations as a 'Weekly Weird News' segment, and eventually evolving into an hour-long interview format on WRFZ.
