Codega's Codex of Curiosities

The veil is thin—and curiosity is the lantern that lights the way.

Codega’s Codex of Curiosities is a journey into the forgotten, the forbidden, and the flat-out bizarre. Host Rye the Codega—multi-award-winning podcaster recognized in categories, Best Paranormal/Mystery Podcast and Best True Crime/Investigative Journalism—guides listeners through real stories and deep conversations exploring the realms of the unexplained—cryptids, ancient anomalies, interdimensional visitors, secret civilizations, and suppressed truths that challenge the mainstream narrative.

Each episode features compelling interviews with eyewitnesses, experiencers, researchers, authors, and whistleblowers who have come face-to-face with the mysteries that most fear to mention. With a flair for storytelling and a conspiratorial wink, Rye doesn't just ask questions—he illuminates the shadows.
