Stay calm, and listen to this:
I love coffee and I get distracted easily. On top of that I have a profession that requires a (high) level of concentration. Thank god for podcasts :))) without them I would'nt get anything done. I want to share with you some of the things I've been listening to;
Guys we fucked, the anti-slutshaming podcast
Don't assume this podcast is ‘just’ about sex, because it's about much more than that. Hosts Corinne and Krystyna are comedians from New York, and every week they invite a guest that has a special story. This might mean they have a conversation about the life of a transgender performer one week, and polyamorous relationships the next. It's about openness, feminism and ending taboos on many levels, but all in a funny and light way.
An APM reports podcast about the mysterious abduction of Jacob Wetterling in 1989. This case was unsolved for 27 years though the producers believe it could- and should have been solved a long long time ago. In this 9-episode podcast we learn about the terrible thing that happened to poor Jacob, and how it lead to stranger danger around the rural Minnesota area and far beyond. If you liked the 'Paradise Lost' trilogy and 'Making A Murderer', you're really going to devour this one. Well written, well produced and I love it that the host really takes a stand, flat out telling police they suck at their job!
This podcast is one of my absolute favorites! It is about the outrageous fitness guru Richard Simmons who, in 2014, stopped teaching his regular exercise class, cut off his closest friends and disappeared from the public eye completely. The host tells personal stories about how Simmons touched and changed lives, all the while he tries to find out what was really going on in the guru's sensitive mind. A very cheerful and sweet way to show the flipside of success, and it curiously made me want to join a gym......(!) Binge it, it’s fun!
A loud and funny podcast about crime, mysteries and conspiracies, hosted by the wonderful Ben Kissel, Henry Zebrowski ( --> podcaster crush <3 ) and Marcus Parks.This one is a bit on the hysterical side, I have to warn you. When I first started listening to it, I turned it off because it made me lose my concentration on the spot! But then I saw they did a three parter on Jeffrey Dahmer (my eternal fascination) and I was sold. Besides the 'heavy hitters' as they call it, I have also learned a lot about chemtrails, MK-Ultra mindcontrol, chaos Magic, Jack Parsons, various religious cults and other dorky subjects. Very informative and sooooo funny, it really cracks me up. And if you dig it, there are over 250 episodes to bingelisten to... yessss!
You could call this an oxy-fuelled teaparty for true crime nerds hosted by the very charming Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark. Both have an anxiety disorder, which is why they're actually super scared of getting murdered themselves. Each episode they prepare for the worst, by sharing scary stories about true crime. In the mean time they drop killer one-liners such as 'you're in a cult, call your dad' and 'stay sexy, don't get murdered'. They do very little research on the subject but are successfully winging it every time. I have to admit that 69 episodes later, it feels like we have become friends. Which is nice :) because studiolife gets lonely sometimes...
This canadian podcast is brilliantly produced and written. It is hosted by documentarian David Ridgen who has a beautiful soothing voice. In the first season he takes the listener back to 1972, when the five year old Adrien McNaughton dissappeared on a fishing trip in Ontario. He talks to all the people that were involved at the time and tries to find out what happened to this poor boy. Even though he doesn’t actually reveal the truth, he does uncover new evidence in the case. And we get to go on a walk with an actual cadaver dog, which made my armchair detective heart pump faster.
Though a story like that makes you kind of sad, the producers of this podcast actually want to give peace to Adriens family. And it must give them some kind of relief to talk about it after all these years.
(season two is also very good, but there has been a long time in between posting of episodes as that investigation is still ongoing)
