Criminal

I finally started a new podcast, Criminal . I started with a few episodes but this series is now one of my favorites. The series is produced by three woman who have done there homework. I like this series because the topics are unique and interesting. Also, most are under an hour. I've now become a Phoebe Judge fan. Updated February 26, 2020 5 Star Episodes so far: Episode 51,  Money Tree. Identity theft is not new, but this young lady's experience was not typical. Episode 125, The less people know about us. This the follow up to episode 51 three years later. Episode 85, The Manual. Murder case to legal case Episode 88,89   Story of a woman taking matters into her own hands. Go Girl Episode 91,92. Story of the first "it"girl Evelyn Nesbit. If you have seen the movie Ragtime, it loosely based on that character. Harvey Weinsteins existed at the time. Episode 94, The Chase.  This guy has been streaking public events for over 20 years. It's hard not to...

S Town

I listened to this last year but forgot to blog it. S Town is the most different subject matter you will every listen too. You will listen to an episode and tell yourself, "Not listening anymore" and then you will be back. The host of the podcast seems to share your opinion but still keeps coming back. I liked this podcast but don't know why. 3 out of 5 stars (but I still recommend it)
