    True Crime Garage today - its fun to listen to, i like the casual manner in which its presented. The Captain can ramble a bit but i dont mind.

    They cover cases i have never heard of.

    My true crime podcast list is getting a bit stale though:
    Stranglers, Somebody Knows Something, Generation Why, Sword and Scale (if im really stuck), Unresolved Podcast and Casefile. Thinking Sideways is another i listen to if im stuck.

    Any recommendations?

    'In the Dark', 'Accused' and 'Untold: The Daniel Morgan Murder' are all true crime podcasts that I liked.

    I do - the guys are fun, i love to listen to it when i am out for a long walk as the episodes are so long. Lots of it is rambling but its really like two friends chatting over beers.

    They have come so far from their first podcast. Sound is great and the do diverse cases.

    Yep I really enjoy the show. Usually have it on in the gym or on the bike, great to get lost in the story and the lads have great chemistry. Must get into some of the other shows mentioned above. Love me some true crime!

    My picks would be Generation Why, Stranglers, Somebody Knows Something.

    Enjoy!

    I didn't get past the tennis bombardment at the start.

    That's something advantageous about a podcast... you can fast forward through a section that you don't like...

    With the ever worsening radio situation in Ireland, I'm looking for podcasts!

    Listened to "Dubland" for the first time today. At the beginning I thought that the bad language was just unnecessary and annoying. By 10 mins in, I was really laughing properly. Had a couple of great laughs at the stories.

    Will listen again

    I really like Dubland. PJ Gallagher is hilarious. It's amazing how even the most basic of tasks seem to create some funny stories/situations with him!

    Podcast Addict is okay - subscribe to your podcasts, check latest episodes and add to playlist, works well for myself


  • Registered Users Posts: 784 ✭✭✭kirk buttercup


    Stranglers is really good

    i hope you like it - i have to say its far and away the best true crime podcast out there. Production is wonderful, narrator has a great voice, stories are well researched and the episodes are so well written. Even if youre not a huge true crime fan its a brilliant podcast!

    Thanks for all the recommendations folks!

    I have started Tracks and thoroughly enjoying it. It's been a while since I had a podcast with a series of episodes I am dying to get to the next ones of. Next will be Casefile.

    My favourite podcast I think of all is Tanis. I also love In Our Time with Melvyn Bragg, Love & Radio, 99% Invisible and You Must Remember This off the top of my head!

    I also use Podcast Addict and happy out with it, works well for me

    I listened to 3 or 4 episodes of Tanis but I just couldn't manage to get into it. I still couldn't figure out or grasp what it was all about really about :o


  • Registered Users Posts: 359 ✭✭CaoimheSquee


    Yep, you really do have to stick with it. Definitely recommend listening to it in bulk rather than weekly but my goodness does it produce the goods. Its science fiction, history, mythology and technology all rolled into one! I miss it so
