I listen to them all day long while I work and need some diversity.
So, I know this might be an odd request, but I’ve got nothing to lose. I’m looking for a podcast with a “gas station at 1 am vibe” “drinking a cup of tea in the kitchen at night” “driving by the desert in a truck while listening to the midnight radio station”. A podcast about weird experiences and weird subjects.
Any thought?
Hello! I am looking for a creepy podcast and I have tried a few suggestions from posts of people looking for similar things but none seem to be quite what I’m looking for. I would prefer something more nonfiction, not like someone telling a made up creepy story but I don’t mind people who discuss made up stories. I also don’t tend to enjoy a ton of true crime/murders or anything supernatural as topics. I would love to find something that discuss more topics like mysteries, args, obscure cults, strange internet phenomenon, etc. I can’t seem to find one with a good “environment” (I’m not quite sure how to explain it) either, a lot seem to be people casually having a conversation about something creepy and also joking around and it lacks the feeling I am looking for. I love YouTubers like nexpo, mamamax, the internet investigator, wendigoon, disrupt, nightdocs, etc. and would love something with those vibes but in podcast form (also if you like …
Podcasts that go into stories of indigenous persons , true crime or otherwise , where the entire season is dedicated to one story like these podcasts which im already listening too
Missing & Murdered : Finding Cleo
Kuper Island
Island Crime : Where is lisa ?
thank you !!
I was hoping to find a good podcast on the united fruit company’s history in central America. A quick google search gives me a few hits but I was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a particular one or one on an adjacent topic.
Anything goes, but I’d love for a serious recommendation to make it to the top :)
I’m just coming off of reading the first of Stormlight Archives book by Brandon Sanderson and while I liked it a lot…the man does not write good (or many) female characters. The book I read before this was Priory of the Orange Tree and I feel like I got spoiled off of that book with having well written women make up half the cast + be most of the people in power
I would love some suggestions for high fantasy books with good women in it. I can go either way on romance being included, and I’m not super picky about the plot or setting. I love magic and dragons though, so if it has those as well then big +1. Another + if the characters are adults! Thanks :)
E - thanks for all the suggestions everyone! My reading list just got a lot longer lol. Looks like I’ll be starting with the broken earth trilogy :D
Doesn’t matter if it’s a funny book or meant to be serious. Or even a book where the main character has encounters with Death as a a physical being. Thanks!
the title basically. I’ve been crying about turning 24 next month because everytime I think of a future I just see a shapeless void and how I feel too small to fight a world where everyone’s so grossly inconsiderate to one another. any books that helped you put this and growing up into perspective? something that helped you get by birthday anxieties? that made you feel seen? I love graphic novels and the coming of age genre and so far have heavily relied on film for this specific need but I really need something to read to get by (and for the future). I want to feel hopeful?
Something that starts out happy but gets darker over time to the point that it is unrecognizable to its former self.
Looking for a book where sewing & magic are linked, in the whole world or for a specific character.
For instance, in Howl’s Moving Castle, Sophie’s hats are a tad magic and what she thinks about them becomes true (“this one will suit a lady that will marry rich”. And then the buyer actually gets married to a rich husband).
Thank you :)
Edit: wow, I wasn’t thinking 1. That many books existed with that subject and 2. So many people would answer. Thank you everyone!

A little background, I suppose
I started having suicidal thoughts and behaviors 5 years ago, so I started therapy, meds, and only yesterday I upgraded to a gaming gear after 9+ years of gaming on potatoes. To celebrate this, I decided to make a list to rule them all. Please critique it to the moon, so I can make it better.
IGN and random YT reviewers feel a bit like a circlejerk, so it’s hard to separate the good from the bad. I come to you to ask what would genuinely be great and FUN gaming experiences to have. I always loved Jak 3 open world style gaming, God of War hack & slash, and the Zelda series back in my childhood.
Anyhow, here’s my list so far, no particular order, category based, please wreck it. It’s based on what I’ve been seeing like a poor kid on the outside of a toy store behind a glass wall (YouTube, E3, twitch and PRINCIPALLY the gods …
i have played other shooters in the same genre like payday 2 and left for dead 2, and i loved both of them, so i wanted to try out DRG, how’s the combat, gameplay and other stuffs ?
Doom Eternal, Rage 2, Turbo Overkill, Ion Fury - just a hint of what I’m looking for.
I’m in the mood for a really good FPS title, I don’t care if it is old, new, a “boomer” shooter, or whatever else as long as it kicks ass and makes you feel satisfied with every kill. I’ve played most of the better known titles, but I’m up for replaying some, if the mood is right.
Personally, I find the least satisfying FPS games to be the ones that have no visible damage/wounds on enemies. Damage system makes the game feel more responsive and the weapons like they actually do something.
Thank you!
I nearly bought Death Road to Canada, but it has mixed reviews and I don’t mind spending the money. I have an issue with the time I spend. I want a mostly passive experience, but don’t mind something active thrown in here and there.
Or, if anyone knows how to play the original Oregon Trail, I don’t care if it’s browser-based or what. I just want to play a game with a frustrating “chance” aspect to it.
Darkest Dungeon and X-Com 2 scratch the itch to an extent, but they’re pretty involved as far as group management/training goes.
FNAF just ended up with me getting annoyed over the same jumpscare everytime than scared any game that doesn’t rely on too many jumpscare that make you tire of them instead of scared?
