I recently got into podcasts cuz of my friend and I need some new ones aaaa. Fiction and Humor are a must and if they have great characters, that's even better.
So far I've listend to:
- Wolf 359
- The Bright Sessions
- The AM Archives
- The College Tapes
- ars PARADOXICA
- Zero Hours
- 36 Questions
And I currently have these on my list:
- Forgive me!
- ARDEN
- Think Fast
Bonus points if they have any of the w359 cast in them cuz I go crazy when I hear their voices in random places :)
Lied about her identity so hard that she convinced everyone close to to her that she was an entirely different person for like several years and well into a MARRIAGE? Drove 27 straight hours through a storm and into the wilderness to chase someone who was explicitly trying to avoid her. Talks to a duck. Hinted that she might be involved in someone’s death and her parents had to bribe her way out of legal trouble three separate times? What’s wrong with her
For Emma:
girls really trying to get through college just to grow weed and is caught up in the musical death of her town
Thank you so much to Lifehacker! for featuring us in this WONDERFUL list! We have personally been harmed by several podcasts on here (looking at you Wolf 359 and 36 Questions) and we're honored to be one of the podcasts that makes people sob.
[image ID: a screenshot from a Lifehacker article called "10 Podcasts Guaranteed to Make You Ugly Cry" that reads "The Bright Sessions is a science fiction podcast that follows a group of therapy patients whose mental health issues intersect with their superhuman abilities. The show documents their experiences even as it delves into the life of their mysterious therapist, Dr. Bright, and explores why she is conducting these sessions. Each character is perfectly isolated so listeners get to really know them as they change, improve, and experience set-backs. Though fantastical, these characters feel utterly real, and their struggles speaks to life’s messiness, and considers the ways we might cope with the cards we’ve been dealt." END ID]
A Better Version is soo so good because it's so fucking ironic and poignant that the first thing Jase does when he meets Judith is refuse to get caught in a silly and inadvertent lie that wouldn't even that matter that much, but because Judith assumes the dog was his dog, he has to correct her.
and he says he didn't want to get caught in a lie, specifically.
And then she gives him a false name and lies to him for several hours and continues lying for two more years, building a whole life together on lie after lie. and then she just expects him to- what- to get to know the real her and trust her again?
