  • The best of a bad genre

    A podcast notable for what it doesn’t have: robotic narration of old stories, ‘hang’em high’ attitude, that cloying, simpering description of “light up a room” people who spent their whole lives taking in strays, which so many TC pods seem to think gives them a licence to exploit their suffering in graphic detail. In the end, people are just people: we all have our light and our darkness.

    Well-written, thoughtful scripts. And dare I say, funny. That is a fine line to tread in this genre, and th... more

  • Irreverence Is A Virtue

    I think my wife found this through REI. She sent me an episode that featured a criminal who claimed to be an Eagle Scout, since I’m an Eagle Scout and am heavily involved in scouting. I was swiftly enthralled. At work, over the last couple months I have been binging this from the beginning. I dread the day I get caught up and will have to wait for new releases. Whitney and Katie are hilarious, yet knowledgeable and give you other perspectives. I’m enamored by Katie’s “sugar free” irreverence. Wh... more
