a friend asked for podcast recommendations and i thought i could as well make a post about things i've liked listening to. i like investigative pods and stuff about scams and that kind of thing but i do listen to a lot of random crap. i've probably also forgotten like 60% of what i've liked before but eh whatever
pods about a single case in detail:
chameleon: hollywood con queen - a scam story about the movie industry
dr death - only season 1 is available for free (i think) but it's the best one anyway. about a scam doctor who was somehow allowed to operate people
finding drago - an investigative pod about trying to figure out who wrote a rocky IV fanfic. yeah. and it's wild as fuck
harsh reality - about a catastrophically bad reality tv show in the 00s
the lazarus heist - about north korean hackers
sweet bobby - a catfishing-kind of relationship story
twin flames - about a weird culty MLM community
wecrashed - about a shitty guy who makes a shit company and then crashes hard
(the shrink next door - only available for subscribers on wondery now but putting it here anyway because it's a wild story about a guy ending up so badly manipulated he basically turns into another guy's slave)
general episodic:
auta antti - every finn knows this. antti holma offers help for people's problems.
behind the bastards - detailed profiles of all kinds of assholes, both historical and modern
cheat - a more humorous pod about scams and scammers
the dream - first season is about MLM scams, second is about diet product scams
the evidence locker - the only real true crime one in here, i like this because it has cases from all around the world and not just north america & UK. there isn't anything else that stands out about this tbh the bar is very low in this regard
let's not meet - readings of people's creepy encounters
the magnus archives - starts off as an anthology kind with short horror stories, turns into a horror audio drama later on
the nosleep podcast - short(-ish. some are pretty long) horror stories
scamfluencers - scammers
something was wrong - usually women reciting their experiences with Guys but sometimes also stories about other types of abuse
this is actually happening - people with unusual/traumatic/etc experiences telling their life stories
tiedetrippi - the other finnish pod in here. weird and creepy science facts
were you raised by wolves - two americans talk about etiquette and half of it doesn't match my culture but somehow i keep listening anyway. yeah keep berating me about not tipping my idk hairdresser and garbage guys here in finland
feel free to recommend your own if you like something that fits the general themes! i especially need more of the wecrashed type in my life that are about obnoxious men getting what they deserve in the end

thanks @tar-mairons for tagging me in a "list five things you've been listening to recently" game :) im gonna do podcasts because I did a music one recently and that hasn't really changed lmfao
1. What The Folklore? (@wtfolklore ) - been listening to this since maybe 2016? definitely in my top five list of podcasts, very funny very good goofs
2. Apocrypals (@apocrypals) - hard to describe this one in a way that doesn't seem weird but their tagline is "two non believers read through the Bible, but aren't, you know, jerks about it". check out their tumblr and give it a shot even if you aren't interested or familiar with abrahamic religion. also top five rn, relistening to episodes is what helps my brain turn off at night (also very good goofs and very good actual informative content, linguistics corner is a highlight in my biased opinion)
3. Every Folk Song with Matt Aukamp (no tumblr afaik) - this one is great if you like folklore and folk songs, the host goes through songs in the Roud index and looks at their history. the music he intersperses is v good to break things up too.
4. Let's Make A Music! (no tumblr) - Brian David Gilbert, his sister Laura, and girlfriend Karen Han (and friend Jonah in the background and older episodes) make a song per episode based on song title prompts received from twitter. very silly but great music that you can buy to listen separately.
5. Chameleon: Hollywood Con Queen (no tumblr) - an investigative journalism piece looking into a huge scam being run in the film industry targetted at skilled workers like make up artists and fitness instructors. it's a solved mystery, can be a little dark in some spots re: potential kidnapping/human trafficking and mentions of homophobia.

FINALE EPISODE OF ’THE CON’ DETAILS HOW A FILM-INDUSTRY EXECUTIVE IMPERSONATOR ALLEGEDLY DECEIVED HOLLYWOOD HOPEFULS WITH THEIR DREAM JOBS, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 31, ON ABC
Tumblr media
“The Hollywood Con” – For several years a person, dubbed the “Con Queen,” had been pretending to be various high-powered female film-industry executives. SHE allegedly offered Hollywood hopefuls a dream job with lucrative pay - but with a catch.  To secure the job the workers had to pay their own way to Jakarta, with the promise of being reimbursed.  However, on arrival in Indonesia, there was a never-ending carousel of delays and excuses, along with additional cash payments for driver fees, photography permits and more. Ultimately, the "Con Queen" disappeared, leaving the workers out of pocket FOR the thousands of dollars they spent abroad, without a job and dashed dreams. This episode follows journalists and “Chameleon: The Hollywood Con Queen” podcasters Josh Dean and Vanessa Grigoriadis as they investigate and reveal the true identity of the suspect who was finally arrested in November of 2020. The episode features exclusive television interviews with multiple Hollywood hopefuls and those closest to the case. The final episode of “The Con” airs WEDNESDAY, MARCH 31 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET) on The ABC Television Network. Episodes can also be viewed the next day on demand and on Hulu.
“The Con” is produced by ABC News. David Sloan is Senior Executive Producer, and Carrie Cook and Colleen Halpin serve as Executive Producers.
For more information, follow ABC News PR on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

what podcasts do u like!!
Recently someone recommended me Oh No Ross and Carrie, so I've been binging that, but some others I keep up with are:
♡ Hollywood Crime Scene
♡ Sibling Rivalry (with Bob the Drag Queen and Monet X Change)
♡ Swindled
♡ You're Wrong About
I listen to Ear Hustle, You Must Remember This, Terrible Thanks For Asking, and House by the Video Store sometimes, too 😄❤💕 Then ofc those "deep dive" true crime podcasts where the entire thing is just one season (lots of them are from Wondery, but sometimes not); the most recent one I've been following is Chameleon: Hollywood Con Queen which has been kinda boring but also fairly entertaining, so perfect to fall asleep to 💖
