In this episode of The Atlas Obscura Podcast, we ask how much you can learn about a person from their hands. Hear the story of a doctor who made it possible for us to hold on to the stories of presidents, astronauts, musicians, artists, and more … through bronze molds of their hands.

Our podcast is an audio guide to the world’s wondrous, awe-inspiring, strange places. In under 15 minutes, we’ll take you to an incredible site, and along the way you’ll meet some fascinating people and hear their stories. Join us daily, Monday through Thursday, to explore a new wonder with cofounder Dylan Thuras and a neighborhood of Atlas Obscura reporters.
