Now, Antiques Mysteries and Great Paintings—two new companion podcasts from Urban Art & Antiques—bring those stories to life.

Antiques Mysteries ventures into the strange and spectral corners of history, exploring objects that once carried hope, deceit, or sorrow—and sometimes, something darker. From ghostly heirlooms and mysterious manuscripts to the shadowy origins of miracle cures and lost inventions, each episode blends history and atmosphere to uncover the human truths behind the treasures we leave behind.

Its counterpart, Great Paintings, takes listeners inside the canvas. These episodes reveal how the forces of history, society, and emotion shaped the world’s most compelling works of art—and how those same forces still echo today. Each painting tells a story not just of brush and pigment, but of ambition, revolution, and the restless spirit of creation.

Together, the two series form a sweeping exploration of art and mystery—of the visible and the unseen. Whether wandering through a 19th-century gallery or into a collector’s haunted attic, listeners are invited to experience the past not as distant history, but as something alive, breathing, and ever unfolding.

Episodes of Antiques Mysteries and Great Paintings are now streaming on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and other major platforms. Each week, a new chapter opens—another clue, another canvas, another untold story.
