Recently, I have been growing really tired of listening to music (how? I don't know). So I started downloading podcasts and it's been really refreshing. It's also perfect for my two-hour round trip commute everyday. I'm currently subscribed to Radiolab and they have a lot of interesting stuff. There's something about listening to a podcast in the middle of the night, cruising through the empty streets, focusing on nothing but your own quiet and the streetlights (of course). You really get to immerse in the stories. It also doesn't hurt to learn something new.
Radiolab
Playing God - Ngl, I teared up in empathy for the stories which reminded me about past events and how I shouldn't take life for granted. Anyways, this podcast was interesting nonetheless, learning about the triage and ultimately how messed up the idea of choosing who gets to live and who doesn't is..
Haunted - I am a suckerrrrr for horror. I used to be such a scaredy-cat but the adrenaline of jump scenes and dark imagery (i.e. Silent Hill, Insidious, Mirrors) won me over. I was looking for a thrilling podcast, and tbh, Haunted isn't supposed to be scary at all (I think). But I loved how the MCs(??) presented the story and it felt like a horror with the sound effects and playbacks from the event.
Patient Zero - This one is about the history of Typhoid Mary (also another good one) and mapping out the origin of AIDS. Very cool stuff to learn about.
