    Lady! They can be irritating for most of the podcast, but the few stories about the filming or behind the scenes makes it worth it

    Feel like they could cut the episodes down to 30 minutes if they didn’t go on so many stupid tangents.

    Been listening to The Experiment a lot lately. It's an offshoot of Radiolab but more current issue/political issue focused. Very much the same style where they go through the history of an issue and the current implications. Highly highly recommended.

    I knew exactly how this episode was going to end from the first minute or so, but I’m still mad at it. They know we know what happened and just want to hear the story and they’re toying with our emotions.

    Appreciate whoever mentioned "Fall Of Civilizations". Just listened to the one about the fall of the Late Bronze Age. Amazing the "Sea Peoples" could topple so many civilizations and end an entire time period yet have so little known about them.

    apparently the story has been well-covered for true crime people, but i had no idea about what happened going in. great series, great payoff. would recommend

    it also has a great theme song

    Absolutely regarding the theme song. The cadence of the storytelling, the production, the theme music…. It’s just so well done.

    im avoiding spoilers as much as possible here. Going to wait until it’s over to dive in.

    although I like crime shit, I hate it when it’s presented poorly. Neil and his team fucking nail it

    First time I listened to them I didn’t listen to them again for 6 months, I would say I had a similar reaction. Also hope you didn’t start with anything in their first 100 episodes because it’s pretty much all garbage.

    same. hardest part for me is not googling the case to see whats going on. i always wait until i'm finished with the podcast/book/article before i start diving deeper. pretty painful with season 2.

    pretty sure a new episode is dropping this week.

    it's odd that he recorded this in 2017, but is just releasing now? events of season 1 happened after events of this season. Also, he keeps saying it's active so I doubt there will be some (if any) closure to this.
