I only just discovered this, which is good for me because I have a whole library to listen to! Incredible research, great commentary and Ben has a wonderful voice for this. Great comfort listen.
I really enjoy Dark Histories. I don’t listen to it all the time but when I do, I enjoy it. The outro music is so perfectly eerie… it definitely sets a mood and gives me the shivers. I also very much enjoyed the renewed episode of Yesterday Today, and look forward to hearing more.
My absolute favorite podcast of all time. Listened to every ep. at least 4-5 times. Beautiful. Ben is a sweetheart.
I listen to this and one other mystery/crime/weird-stuff podcast. Lately this has been my go-to for long nights awake with a newborn lol. I love Ben’s narration, and the end recaps with his own thoughts; that inspires me to think about the cases and see how many of the same conclusions (when the truth is ambiguous) I reach.
I also think the baby likes them.
This year I didn’t like the selection of stories. They seem rather monotonous.
