Podcasts & Blogs I like

The Dollop is good but there's so many in their back catalogue that I have to pick and choose. I will definitely listen to that one.

[smalex]

Enron was a good episode too. Some are better than others. I do prefer the more modern stories

[Marth]

Sofie Hagen - Made of Human. She does these long interviews with people, usually comics. I really like them. If she is not to your taste you probably won't.

[Ella77]

I love her but I can't get on with Made of Human. She does these weird, whispery monologues about boring stuff (like the logistics of buying tickets for her comedy shows) for ages before it gets going, and that pissed me off after a few episodes.

The Guilty Feminist has just done one about raising feminist boys, and how you have to be active about it,and not just assume they will get the gist from living in a feminist household. I found it interesting.

I listened to that yesterday and was worried about it before listening, having two boys, and worried that I was doing it wrong.

Thanks Ella, I need to listen to that.

Is anyone listening to Dirty John? It's a true crime podcast. I have just finished it and need to talk about it.

[smalex]

No. I will look into it though. I have an insatiable requirement for podcast based entertainment.

[Duophonic]

I listened to Dirty John over two days last week.

Loved it.

[Ruby]

I knew you would be all over it, Duo. The last episode was amazing. I had to sit in the car with headphones on, whilst Partner took the chaps round th'ASDA so I could finish it today. I am pleased that I avoided Googling.

I went into work on Friday and said to Shoe "I've just listened to this podcast and the twist was amazing".

It was so cleverly done

[Ruby]

It really really was.

[Ismee]

My Sister recommended that one to me today!

I have been listening to Ear Hustle which I recommend.

[smalex]

I've just binge listened.


I didn't like it that much , although I was more pleasantly surprised by the end than I expected to be.

[Edith Bacon]

I listened over a few days and really enjoyed it, apart from wanting to give Debra a good shake when she went back to him. I also listened to the Real Criminal Profile discussion of it and it was as good as the show itself.

[Ruby]

I thought Debra should have been fucking sectioned. And her mother. :victimblaming:

[smalex]

:lol: I think that was what I didn't like. I couldn't warm to Debra at all. Even at the end she wanted to believe he actually loved her. Bizarre.

[Edith Bacon]

Debra’s mother has a lot to answer for.

A LOT.

[Duophonic]

As soon as they trotted out the 'as a christian' shite I wanted to scream.

I so thought it'd be Jacklyn involved rather than Terra.

[Chicky]

Ive just finished Dirty John and thought it was fascinating. What was Debra thinking? And her mother - the bit that got me about her mother was how loyal she was to Billy. They are all bonkers.
