GSG Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Since my new(er) job doesn't really require a lot facetime or phone calls I've been listening to some podcasts while I work. Thought I'd share some that I like and see if anyone else has any they would recommend. One of the more popular podcasts in all of podcast-world, Crime Junkie. Basically it's two women who re-tell solved/unsovled/strange true crime stories. Listened to this episode yesterday and it was bananas: This one is kinda cool even though it's old. It's a limited series. They tried to make a TV version of it starring Jessica Biel and Stanley Tucci. I haven't finished it yet, but it's the story of a journalist investigating the disappearance of over 300 people at neuroscience research facility in Tennessee. This one is pretty weird. You can listen to any episode in any order, it doesn't matter. The show is basically a weird/funny radio show for a fictional town called Night Vale, with reports on the strange happenings around town. Really hoping they continue stuff like this next one: This is Strawberry Spring, which is a short story by Stephen King that they turned into a scripted radio show starring a few known actors: If there's interest, I'll pop some more in the thread tomorrow. 4 Quote Link to comment

The only sports related ones I've been listening to lately are the Yahoo guys on "The College Football Enquirer" and the 247 guys on "The College Football Daily." I tried the "Locked On Big 10" podcast once, but they had an Iowa guy and Wisconsin guy and all they did was talk s#!t about NU the whole time. Quote Link to comment

DevoHusker Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 You guys might try Small Town Murder. I like it, but a lot is NSFW. Some mentioned here I have sampled. I really like Mike Rowe's. I will definitely give some of the others a listen. Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Just wish all these would magically reappear on YouTube because it was the funniest s#!t since Chappelle's Show. RIP Norm and RIP Super Dave 3 Quote Link to comment

Thought I would try this one out and they recently did one that took place in Colorado. I didn't know they did this huge deep on the area. Listening to them s#!t on Eastern Colorado and Greeley (which they described as a s#!thole @JJ Husker can attest to that) was pretty hilarious. Interested to see where this goes 1 Quote Link to comment

Interested to see where this goes I’ll have to check that out. And I can attest, the far east side of Greeley is a s#!thole. That’s why I live on the west side 1 Quote Link to comment

Lorewarn Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Just recently binged through "Our Thing". It's Sammy 'The Bull' Gravano, underboss of the Gambino crime family, telling stories about mafia life, hit jobs, growing up in the mob, etc. Beats any other crime podcast because it's the actual guy talking about it. Insanely good. 1 Quote Link to comment
