Radio Rental or Spooked but in book form

I have a big flight coming up, and for some reason when I fly and I listen to podcasts, I fall asleep. Except within 20 minutes or so, something wakes me, and I’m trapped in a viscous cycle. If I just straight up read an old fashioned actual book, I stay awake and I’m entertained. If it’s the right book of course. So I’d love to know if there are any books, with a similar format of creepy true stories told by the real people who it actually happened to.

Any fiction story pod recs?

I’ve enjoyed Dirt and Trap Street. Does anyone else have others they liked? I like mysteries with a touch of cheese —to balance out my crime/horror pods 😈 🧀 thanks!

Best podcast to listen to with someone else?

I know this is pretty open-ended but my gf and I have a long roadtrip and I think some podcasts would be nice for variety of entertainment.

For example, I think Song Exploder is a good one bc we both like music and it’s so well made.

I suppose we both like things about parks/animals/nature, murderers/murdery history, but I am also thinking something light and funny.

*I struggle with comedy podcasts where there is lots of interrupting and arbitrary banter. We both like incongruent humor but controlled, for lack of a better way to put it. Good sound quality, as well.

Another favorite: We Can Do Hard Things (Glennon Doyle)

Ever since Amanda got back I feel like she's been on fire. And Abby is so right that we're doing social media all wrong. Cute animal videos are the way. I shared one video and now I keep seeing them. They just make me so happy when I watch them. This is another podcast I wish had more places to discuss the episodes.

What might fill the void after finishing the Magnus Archives and Alice isn’t Dead?

I quite like horror but it doesn't need to be horror at all, but I'd love something to listen to as exciting and beautifully told as MAG or AiD for an upcoming plane trip

Quirky, deep, philosophical podcasts?

Forgive the repetitiveness of this question. It seems to get asked with slight variations a lot — but I tried to refine my question to what I am truly most interested in finding. I’m already familiar with (& generally like) Philosophize This, The Partially Examined Life, This American Life, Heavyweight, etc. But now looking for the next level….

I’m not interested in light, breezy, or even necessarily especially accessible podcasts — but ones that challenge and have a certain intellectual rigor or heft. Ok if they’re “difficult,” or the host is quirky, etc.

I’m also not interested in true crime, pop science, celebrity, or “weird facts.”

What I (think I) am interested in (if it exists) might be: podcasts that focus on deeper, more sustained, philosophical dives on idiosyncratic subjects and “big questions” — the nature of reality, consciousness, cosmology, phenomenology, semiotics, epistemology….

Forgive the weird request… I know this is a head-scratcher, but I just can’t seem to find anything that I really want to engage in and get lost in….if that makes sense….

Does the Mic matter ?

I’ve been looking into the world of podcasting and also doing some voiceover work for my wildlife videos.
I’ve been watching endless reviews of the rode podmic and the shure SM 7B .
The one thing I keep coming back to is probably 95% of the people are going to be listening through their smart phone so my question is am I wasting my time trying to find the perfect mic and should I save my money

True crime psychology

I love true crime - I have loved it since I first read aboht BTK as a teenager. However as much as I love podcasts, I'm a bit over the immature, scripted, banter heavy podcasts I've found myself listening to in the past.
I love to know about the psychology of a criminal - true Mindhunter type stuff. Can anyone suggest a podcast that focuses on the psychology of criminals? It doesn't necessarily need to be about murderers per sey.

LeVar Burton Reads

I really like this podcast and most of the stories on it are great!

There's just one thing that's bothering me... Why does he end each podcast with "I'll see you next week...... But you don't have to take my word for it"?
