We tend to see weddings as the beginning of something grand. A new start with joy and happiness as a destination. But if these popular legends are any indication, that's not always the tale that's told.

- Don’t make it personal
I’ve been listening to Lore for the better part of 5 years now. I’ve listened to every single free episode and have enjoyed 90% of them. Sometimes the stories are repetitive but I imagine there’s going to be only so much you can report on. I will say that when I started it, there was ZERO political and social agendas.

United States9 days ago - Just that last ad…
I adore this podcast. In fact, it holds a sweet spot in my heart because it’s what I listened to as I traveled to the neighboring town for a first date with my now-wife. And she’s now a fan, too! My only complaint is that last ad break. It really ruins the episode and interrupts the build. I’d prefer to have all the ads at the beginning so I can immerse myself in Lore once they’re over.

Shut up when it comes to politics, you open your mouth and your ignorance spills out !
Apple Podcasts1NotwoketardUnited States15 days ago - Entertaining!
I have enjoyed this podcast for years and always look forward to hearing the newest episode. All of Grim &Mild’s podcasts are well-done and unique. I don’t usually care for multiple host programs because the story/topic gets buried by unrelated conversation. Aaron’s voice is just right and the music is muted and intriguing, not overwhelming. Recommend Lore and all the podcasts he produces.
