heir-to-the-diamond-throne:

I’ve actually received a few people interested in my current list of podcasts so I’m writing them all down (also it’ll be helpful in case my podcast app decides to crash and wipe my library for the fourth time)

I just want to preface this by saying I’m probably still missing a few that I haven’t been able to remember. Also there’s a few on here that have finished, a few I’ve stopped listening to and am waiting to see if I’ll go back to, and a few that I haven’t gotten around to listening to yet.

‪Podcast idea: a D&D campaign with same characters, same story, same everything, but different comedians picking it up each week and trying to deal with what the players of the past week put their characters through

Working title: Roll Reversal

So there’s actually a really solid chance of this becoming a thing. Can you reblog this post if you’d have interest in listening to this?

lgbt podcasts that deserve more attention in my gay opinion

raimijenner:

please let me know if you want details about the lgbt+ representation in these, and feel free to add on 😀

death at a low price– my very very fave as probably most of my followers are aware of at this point. scifi/comedy about a group of dangerous queer ppl and aliens who run an interdimensional convenience store. search herbarium podcasts to find it

spines podcast– horror/mystery about a woman who has scary dangerous powers and only remembers a fucked up ritual and information about her “friends” and who tries to figure out what she is and what happened to her and whats going on with certain sketchy orginizations

inkwyrm– scifi/romcom that is basically gays in space fashion magazine version. also includes a lot of cliche gay relationship drama that i live for

freed– soft apocolypse is the best way i can describe it. its a really sweet podcast about a badass lady who makes broadcasts about her progress fixing a mountain town. later on she makes friends that help her out and theres conspiracys and a lot gets revealed about the world. also my fave

junction series–  drama/romance about 4 high school girls who try and start a podcast to find a girl who went missing but get really off track because they are all really gay for each other and have a lot of relationship drama

adventures of mechabetty– scifi/mecha/action about a scientist who turns herself into a mech w the help of her team in order to fight off an alien invasion. really lighthearted and fun

to whom it may concern– fantasy/supernatural about a mentally ill woman who gets haunted by a dangerous ghost and the group of ghosts that are trying to help protect her

oakpodcast– scifi/interactive podcast about an autistic jewish spy who gets stranded and becomes homeless and is forced to uncover the truth behind the bioweapon that she was exposed to

the girl who set out to seek a living wage– fairy tale about autistic fantasy lesbians destroying capitalism and living happily ever after

the blood crow stories– horror podcast about a college student who goes through old psych records of the passengers ofa ship that sank in the 1940s (i think??) and then realizes there is a monster feeding off everyones pain and fear. heads up that this will emotionally destroy you

Spooky Scary Podcasts …

podcasts-collected:

Only a few more weeks until Halloween!!!!

Time to get into the right spoooky mood with the help of some amazing podcasts! Here are some that we at podcasts-collected recommend:

Fiction:

  • Alice isn’t Dead: by the creators of Welcome to Night Vale; a truck driver searching for her missing wife
  • The Black Tapes: a journalist searching for the truth behind a series of paranormal (?) cases (find our review here)
  • The Bright Sessions: a therapist trying to help her young patients with their supernatural abilities …
  • Limetown: a journalist investigating the sudden disappearance of the inhabitants of Limetown
  • The Message: follows a group of specialists trying to decipher an old transmission that might – or might not – be alien… (find our review here)
  • The No Sleep Podcast: horror story anthology podcast born from the “Nosleep” subreddit
  • Scotch: a young woman is suddenly haunted by the smell of scotch; then weird things start happening around her
  • Tanis: brother podcast of The Black Tapes; a journalist investigating old myths, internet creepypasta and conspiracy theories, trying to find clues about something called “Tanis”…
  • Welcome to Night Vale: A small desert community where the sun is hot, the moon is beautiful, and mysterious lights pass overhead while we all pretend to sleep …
  • We’re Alive: zombies; some parts of it are pretty cool, others not so much, but it sure is scary sometimes!; has a spin-off: We’re Alive: Lockdown
  • (Also, some episodes of The Truth are pretty scary!; find our review here)

Non-Fiction:

Podcasts I love

dynamicsymmetry:

In case you’re looking for recs.

Investigative/true crime

  • In the Dark – “Child abductions are rare crimes. And they’re typically solved. For 27 years, the investigation into the abduction of Jacob Wetterling in rural Minnesota yielded no answers. In the most comprehensive reporting on this case, APM Reports and reporter Madeleine Baran reveal how law enforcement mishandled one of the most notorious child abductions in the country and how those failures fueled national anxiety about stranger danger, changed how adults parent their kids and led to the nation’s sex-offender registries.” Deep, thoughtful, nicely un-sensationalized, and – I think – important if you care about the effectiveness of law enforcement in America. Also great if you just love a good mystery, even though the murder mystery itself is technically solved from the first episode. The real mystery is how it all happened, not who did it.
  • Serial – “Serial is a podcast from the creators of This American Life, hosted by Sarah Koenig. Serial tells one story—a true story—over the course of a season. Each season, we follow a plot and characters wherever they take us. We won’t know what happens at the end until we get there, not long before you get there with us.” Winner of multiple awards – including a Peabody – and one of the most successful podcasts to date. It’s somewhat similar to In the Dark (Serial is actually largely responsible for a flurry of podcasts like this because of its wild success) though also different in some important ways, not least because it’s ongoing and because it doesn’t focus exclusively on crime. The first season is very good, although somewhat racially problematic, but the second season is fucking amazing.
  • Sword and Scale – Sword and Scale is a bit more of a guilty pleasure than the previous two, because while it has pretensions to something deeper, it really is kind of trashy at times. But I think in a good way, for the most part, and it does dip into truly thoughtful territory, as well as – in my opinion – at least making a good faith attempt to maintain genuine respect for the subject matter. It usually focuses on more extreme and violent crimes (lots of serial killers and mass murderers), though there are points at which it confines itself to the merely odd, and it’s pretty well written. Bonus good elements: the music is fantastic and I have a major crush on the host’s voice.

Fiction/drama

A quick side note: I was raised on radio drama (my first exposure to The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy was the BBC radio production – its original and in my opinion greatest form – and my favorite version of Star Wars is actually the radio drama, which incorporates a lot of the interesting stuff that didn’t make it into the final cut of the film, including the whole Biggs Darklighter subplot and a lot of deeper detail about Luke’s life on Tatooine, as well as Leia’s history as a Rebel operative; I seriously can’t recommend it enough). For a while it seemed like this wonderful form of storytelling was on the decline, and probably the thing I love most about podcasts is that it’s come roaring back. I honestly think we’re in the middle of a renaissance of audio drama and I’m so happy.

  • TANIS – TANIS is fucking incredible. It’s actually presented as an investigative series on the model of Serial, and tells the story of the pursuit of a mysterious and increasingly terrifying Lovecraftian dimension/location/entity and everyone whose life it’s ruined. It’s one of the creepiest things I’ve ever heard, though I thought the s2 finale that just aired was slightly below its usual high standards. I’m still psyched for s3.
  • The Black Tapes – Same team as TANIS, same universe, same characters, same format, though it has a lot more in common with The X-Files. I don’t think it’s quite as enjoyable as TANIS but I also think that’s down to my personal taste rather than comparative quality, so YMMV.
  • WELCOME TO NIGHT VALE – My history with this podcast can be summed up as follows: “Huh, this is kind of interesting.” “Okay, this is pretty clever and funny.” “Wait why is it hurting me with feelings now” “oh my god how dare you” “YAY” “wtf now it’s seriously scary” “how can you not be posting faster, why don’t you post faster you assholes” It’s just… You need it in your life. Trust me.
  • Alice Isn’t Dead – Same production team and writers as Night Vale, but majorly different in a lot of ways, not least in that it’s not comedy at all. Essentially: Lesbian trucker travels weird-and-scary rural America in search of her missing wife. It took a couple episodes to grab me and then rapidly joined TANIS as one of the most frightening fucking things I’ve ever encountered in any medium. It’s fantastic horror. It’s also moving, which the Night Vale team has a real knack for.
  • Within the Wires – Yet more Nightvale Presents. I think it’s best if I don’t say much about this. Just listen to it, and do so as unspoiled as possible. The writing is simply gorgeous.
  • Limetown – “Ten years ago, over three hundred men, women and children disappeared from a small town in Tennessee, never to be heard from again. In this seven-part podcast, American Public Radio host Lia Haddock asks the question once more, “What happened to the people of Limetown?” Yet another fictional Serial clone – and you should not consider that a disparaging description. Like TANIS, it’s a great mix of science fiction and mystery and horror. Starts creepy and weird and gets pretty disturbing in the best way possible. Once again I would go into this as unspoiled as possible.
  • The Message – Yet another fictional Serial clone, this one follows a cryptography team as they seek to decode the first legitimate transmission from an extraterrestrial species. The twist at the end is A+. The one quibble I have is that I don’t think there was enough of it, though supposedly a second season is on the way.

Politics

istg, these are some of the only reasons I’m coping at all with this fucking election.

  • The NPR Politics Podcast – Sharp, insightful, relatively calm analysis about stuff in general, though obviously most of what they’re talking about right now is the US election. Everyone is smart and likable and frequently funny.
  • The Political Gabfest – Slate’s politics podcast. Very similar to NPR’s except they don’t even try to keep up a pretense of neutrality (not that NPR is really doing so either because HOW CAN YOU). There’s a bit more bickering but it’s good bickering.
  • FiveThirtyEight Elections – Obviously more of a focus on polls and predictive statistics but a lot of great general analysis, and of the three of these I think I like the people best simply as people. It’s also probably the funniest. It tends to make me feel better about everything.

And of course there’s mine. (I work very hard on it all by myself so tips/Patreon subscriptions are very very appreciated especially right now owing to Life Events)

So those are my faves atm. Listen and enjoy.
