I'm a little obsessed with crime/murder ones so my favourites are:

Serial (my favourite ever)
Undisclosed
The murder squad

I do need to broaden my horizons though so will keep an eye on the thread. I can't read on my commute because I'll be sick so podcasts are my friend.

SherlockSays · 17/05/2019 15:26

Ooo and:

Black hands
Dirty John (this is now on Netflix)

The Body Cons podcast is fairly new and is about body image. It’s really interesting and has a very positive message about body acceptance.

People who like serial could try This American Life- same bunch but self contained hour long programmes round a different theme each time , really diverse topics.

Snufflepiglet · 17/05/2019 16:52

YY to a lot of the true crime ones above.

Just to add: West Cork on Audible is v good too

General0rgana · 17/05/2019 17:09

Serial was good 👍

And then BBC ones: Inside Health, Inside Science, All In The Mind etc.

ComeOnGordon · 17/05/2019 17:13

American ones - This American Life, Radiolab & Armchair Expert.

British ones Inside Health, woman’s hour & desert island discs if I’m interested in the person
