I listen to a lot of podcasts, so I thought I’d make a list:
Lore: (weird/creepy/interesting stories about the origins of folklore)
Myths and Legends: (guy tells stories from mythology it’s really good)
The Dollop: (two dudes tell weird stories mostly from America)
Slow Burn: A Podcast About Watergate
Stuff You Missed in History Class: (interesting stories from history)
Mysteries Abound: (more weird stories)
Family Ghosts: (people talk about secrets from their families)
S-Town: (crazy stuff in not the greatest small town)
The Conspirators: (more weird stories)
Unexplained: (you guess it more weird stories)
You Must Remember This: (Hollywood stories)
My Favorite Murder: (the best - two hilarious women talk about murder and true crime in general)
Stranglers: (about the Boston Strangler - this one does go into quite a lot of detail so if you don’t want that avoid this one)
Detective: (detectives talk about their experiences. My fave is season one with Lt. Joe Kenda)
Atlanta Monster: (discusses the infamous Atlanta Child murders - did the right man go to jail?)
Black Hands - A Family Mass Murder: (Bain family murders - who did it? This is a particularly infamous NZ murder)
Casefile: (Australian Murders - again some of them can be pretty intense)
Crimetown: (okay this podcast is amazing, it’s like something out of a movie - basically corruption and gangsters in Rhode Island)
Convicted: (man is accused of murdering his daughter and sent to jail, but did he do it?)
Dirty John: (Debra Newell marries a dude she thinks is perfect - this is a terrible idea and you will scream at her)
Hollywood and Crime: (links a bunch of murders to the Black Dahlia killing - I think s2 goes into the Manson murders. Really good but again they go into quite a bit of detail about some of the murders so if you’re squeamish maybe don’t listen)
In the Dark: (okay this one is a little rough because it’s about a terrible child murder, that being said it’s really well produced it did make me cry though)
Someone Knows Something: (s1 is about a missing kid and is kind of sad but not super horrible, s2 is about a woman who went missing just days after being proposed to on live TV and s3 is about a clan murder in the 60s - probably my fave season - s4 is about an unsolved bomb murder)
The Fall Line: (two African American girls go missing and the criminal justice system fails to do a thing about it - prepare to get angry)
Thin Air: (missing people)
Welcome to Nightvale: (hard to explain, weird stories, weird town)
Limetown: (the second season is supposed to be coming - years ago three hundred people went missing from a top secret science facility and a journalist wants answers)
The Mental Illness Happy Hour: (a pretty cool podcast where people talk about mental illness)
Dear Hank and John: (A comedy podcast about death and involving highly dubious advice)
If anyone has any good podcast recs let me know because all I do is listen to them day and night :)
