The Paddlefish Caviar Heist

A very different true crime podcast that is filled with interesting people and a sense of place.

It’s OP; thank you to the person who recommended City of the Rails. that was exactly what I was looking for! (That twist at the end was something.)

Plus one to this. It's about the Free Willy whale and how a lot of people with good intentions struggled to help him.


I’m worried this is going to be too sad? I see references to people crying listening to it.

It's a podcast about grief and loss. It's been particularly helpful for me as I grieve the loss of my husband, but there have been elements that apply to the loss of my parents, too.


I'm so sorry for your losses. 💜

Serial podcast first season (Disappearance of Hae Min Lee.) (New York Times) It's a really interesting story and is kind of a tv show without visuals, IMO. Also, it's about events that occurred in the DMV, which adds to it a bit.

It’s OP again, renewing my annual call out for good podcast recs to keep me engaged during a long drive coming up. Anything come out in the last year that you loved?

DH and I are listening to the Who Killed JFK podcast with Rob Reiner. It is really fascinating.
