    5 Minute History
    The Moth
    Selected Shorts
    The Writer's Almanac
    Remarkable Lives Tragic Deaths
    History on Fire
    Unsolved Murders

    And I used to truly love A Prairie Home Companion. They still release something each week, but they are replays as Garrison Keillor retired in July 2016.

    I'm resurrecting this because I think I might start posting links to episodes I've recently enjoyed. It can be daunting to new podcast listeners to know where to start.

    Anyway, one I enjoyed yesterday was from the podcast, The Allusionist, and it was about small talk.

    "Small talk is usually not conveying much vital information, nor is it especially interesting. But beneath that comfort blanket of tedium lies a valuable social function."
