Paranormal activity and a good true crime
And That's Why We Drink is a podcast hosted by Kristina, Em, and Geio the Dog. Em gives a paranormal (usually hauntings) story, while Kristina recounts a true crime story. Together they make the beginning of each week a little less dreadful. On the first of each month there is a "Listener's Stories" episode, which as the name implies, includes the stories that listener send in, whether paranormal, murder, or both. Each week has new and interesting stories for fans of both genres.

I completely loved this book. It’s such an easy to follow read and I was drawn in by the characters. Knowing it’s based on true events makes it even more intense. I highly recommend this book for anyone with an interest in the war or true stories.

Well written, well directed stories.
This is a superb show.
Keeps the true essence of Sherlock, regardless of it being a modern variant.

Told chronologicaly
Easy to understand
No humour simple straight to the point facts
Narrator is kind of monotone (1 more)
Mostly restricted to Australian true crime only
A very seriously executed true crime series
I really enjoy this podcast and whilst they dojt really touch on the most famous of true crime stories they do delve deeply into the lesser known crimes, which in some way's is better l! Whilst the narrator is easy to understand he can come off as very monotone and most stories are restricted to either crimes that took place in Australia or Australian's murdered abroad, now that do still touch on crimes committed elsewhere and one of those include one my favourite true crime stories told anywhere (case 104 Mark and John, a story about friendship, and an online relationship which isnt what it appears to be)

Leanne Shapton recommended Rebecca (1940) in Movies (curated)

 
Rebecca (1940)
Rebecca (1940)
1940 | Classics, Drama, Mystery

"Not quite as good as the book, but so true to the psychological hauntings at the heart of Daphne du Maurier’s best stories. The images of Rebecca’s spooky bedroom are fabulous."
