I fell like serial is either going to get super crazy or fall off the boring cliff soon.

I just started Star Talk with Neil Degrass Tyson and really like it.

Also, TED Radio Hour is pretty interesting after a couple epis.

also a fan of Stuff you should Know.

I just don't know how serial can give a satisfying ending, unless she solves it.  I keep thinking to myself "I wonder who did it" and then realizing that I will probably never know

There is always a piece of evidence to contradict whatever could've happened.  Adnan probably did it but it didn't go down like Jay said.

I think adnan is guilty and that jay did a lot more than he admitted.  Like go-to-jail level of helping out.

Podcasts I Love:

Lexicon Valley (Language and Culture)
Smart People Podcast (Educational)
Fantasy Focus (Fantasy Football)
Snap Judgement (Story Telling)
All Songs Considered (Music Discovery)
Bugle (Political Humor)

Other ones I listen to:
Men in Blazers (Soccer)
Comedy Bang Bang (Comedy)
Song Exploder (Music Theory?)
99 Percent Invisible (Design/Architecture)
Iterate (Mobile Phone App Design)


I'm always looking for new ones, and as you can tell I have a pretty big range. I'll have to give Serial a try since you guys are raving about it.

Freakonomics podcasts are pretty good if you're into that sort of thing

I loved the book.  Have only listened to two podcasts so far and am not impressed with them.  One was vampires and the economy, though.

I'm in the middle of the 7th episode, and they're talking to the Innocence Project people.

I don't think Adnan did it.  I think he makes sense out of process of elimination, but...unless something major shifts, I don't feel like there's enough there to say he was guilty.

Now, I'm interested to hear episode 8 because Jay...there's something up with that guy.

I don't think there was enough to convict Adnan but I think he probably did it.

Yeah, that one was kind of a "duh" moment. I didn't learn anything I didn't already know from it. Enjoyed the US & Mexico "Merger" episode.

That was the other of the two I listened to.  It didn't do anything for me.

I love the Bugle, but damn, when Andy is bad, it's fast forward bad. Anyone else feel that way?

John Oliver is consistently hilarious, though.

Andy is mostly tolerable, occasionally bad,  and never good, imo
