Please outline what each podcast is in terms or subject or genre, it helps narrow down to what people will be interested in and what to take a closer look at
I love Behind the Bastards with Robert Evans which tells the backstories of the awful people and institutions and practices that are evil, psycho/sociopathic, and often of current topical interest.
I also enjoy The Dollop which "tells stories of people and events of American history with Dave Anthony and his repulsive sidekick, Gary Reynolds)
The sheer evil and craziness of the bastards they focus on actually gets me pumped up and focused on the task i set for myself as a condition of treating myself or giving myself permission to listen and hang out :)
Evil people tend to be outsizedly productive so a little bit (the good bit) rubs off on me
About to cook up an 18 egg omelette to cover my breakfast sandwiches for the week
Whats Lateral all about?
Im just gonna ask people cuz theres so many reccomendations and i cant possibly look em all up so apologies in advance if you’ll indulge me
No worries, as mentioned Lateral is a puzzle show, each episode he brings on 3 guests and has a handful of questions they ask each other that have some level lateral thinking to get to the correct answer and whoever is reading the question has some clues to help them get to the right answer an example might be like:
A shop has a tray of Lego bricks on the floor, what is it selling?
The first clue being it’s not a toy shop, since that’s obvious, and the second clue it also has trays of gravel, stone, and wood bark.
The answer being shoes, the trays are there so you can see how those shoes feel if you were to step on different objects.
It feels really good when you guess, or know, the answer right away and are following the guests train of thought getting to the right answer.
Latera feels right up my corner. Will listen shortly, not today cuz i need to keep it easy but will do
