Steve's Podcast Reviews

  One Year 1995 This podcast reviews some interesting events of 1995. None of the events are related but all are interesting. Same group has also done One year 1977. Highly recommend 4 out of 4 stars

 The 9/12 podcast was a little different. The reviews are on each end of the spectrum, very good or people didn't get it. I loved the podcast because it made you think. It's very philosophical. When you listen to the first episode you will think you're listening to the wrong podcast. Give it chance. 3 1/2 of of 4 stars

 This podcast is narrated by the Wall Street journalist who broke the story of Theranos. There is only season 1 but I'm guessing season 2 will follow after the conclusion of the trail. This is a well done podcast that will keep your interest. Elizabeth Holmes is a piece of work and I'm amazed at her chutzpah. 4 out of 4 stars Bad Blood link

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
