We LOVE investigative stories. No really, we are addicted. But… sometimes… we feel like we are the ones doing the work. In this episode, we are talking about FINDING NATASHA by Message Heard. The story seems to have everything we love, a good question, a fascinating family history, USSR scaries and ballet (Anya squeals here). The one thing we were …

THIS IS NOT A DRILL!! IT'S OUR FIRST BONUS EPISODE! On last week's episode we discussed the Off Menu Podcast, a food podcast where British comedians James Acaster and Ed Gamble sit down with a guest and ask them about their dream meal. So we thought, why not discuss our favorite dishes too? So here you are, a short-mini-bonus episode all about food…

This week's episode is about SHEER feel-good listening: it's the Off Menu Podcast! Every week, British comedians James Acaster and Ed Gamble sit down with a celebrity (broadcasters, comedians, chefs) and ask them their favorite ever starter, main course, desert, side dish, and drink (but not in that order!) Whenever we need a comfort podcast, this …

It is not black. It is not white. It is… grey. In this week’s episode we are listening to INTO THE GREY ZONE by Sky News and Deborah Haynes. From assassinations to disinformation, we touch on how states can stay out of ‘war’ as we might know it, but also be perpetually in it. We talk about the dangers of only looking outward when discussing foreign…

Just a heads up: in this episode we discuss the way The Baron of Botox depicts suicide. The beauty industry is pretty messed up. It’s an industry that feeds off of our insecurities and bombards us with air-brushed beauty standards. Luckily, lots of recent reporting has tried to expose this... ...but not all reporting. Which takes us to this week’s …

Just a heads up: we discuss domestic abuse in this episode. If you don’t want to hear that, maybe skip this one. Stay tuned for happier episodes (they’re coming, we promise!). Dirty John was released right around the time everyone was going CRAZY for true crime podcasts. And it makes sense. This podcast tells the hair-raising story of a dangerous c…

Unsolicited pics, reality TV that rotted our brains, and the very sad truth of being a woman on the internet – you guessed it, it’s a Catfish review!

In this episode, we travel back in time and then forward into the future wh…

Not an opera fan? No fear! Aria Code is a podcast that tries to fix that. In each episode, host Rhiannon Giddens dissects a famous piece of operatic music (an aria) with the help of opera singers, scholarly experts and opera fanatics. Do they do a good job of convincing us opera is the coolest new thing? Listen to this episode to see what we though…

Plus, listen to us figure out the true measure of success (hint, it's the pub quiz). The Jungle Prince podcast is pr…
