Steve's Podcast Reviews

Started a new podcast, You're wrong about . Two journalists do the show and compliment each other well. I tried 3 or 4 before I decided this is a good podcast. Favorites so far: A Dingo's got my baby. The history of the famous catchphrase.  Tonya Harding (Two parts) Before you roll you eyes, give it a try. Tipper Gore vs. Heavy metal. Actually didn't know this happened Anti-Vaccine movement

 Decoder ring podcast is basically, what was really happening in the background of the main story. I've only listened to 4or 5 shows so far and I like but not really hooked yet. Some of the shows seem to run out of material and an adjacent, unnecessary subject is added. Favorite shows so far: Chuck E. Cheese Pizza War. I knew about chuck e cheese but not everything. Baby Shark. Where did that ear worm come from? 3 1/2 stars out of 5

  Spectacular Failures  is about, well, spectacular failures. Think, too big to fail and you will get the idea. Each episode is a new failure. Favorites so far: Schlitz Beer goes bad Blue Apron Wilts Pan Am hits major turbulence MoviePass begins with plenty of drama Family fighting sends U-Haul on a detour I give the podcast a 4 out of 5 stars. Some episodes 5 stars

The Norco 80 podcast is old story that has been told many times. If you want to know why police needed bigger weapons, this is the story. The podcast is done well and really no complaints but I've read the book and its much better. My recommendation is to read the book ( link here ) then listen to the podcast. 4 out of 5 stars

 The Chameleon: Con Queen of Hollywood is probably the strangest plot I've ever listened too. After episode 4, I binged it to the end. Listening to the first episodes makes you think "What is the scam here" ? Eventually the question is answered but it's very twisted. 5 out of 5 Stars
