Its been a hell of a year, and we cant wait for it to be over.
But they arent all sad some are funny, others shocking.
Some are about technology, and others about history, art, sexism, and pyramid schemes.
Here were the nine podcast episodes you definitely should have listened to this year, with commentary by us.
It’s free, every week, in your inbox.
Its called The Snapchat Thiefand it tells the story of a woman whose Snapchat got hacked.
Go listen to it, Im sure youll enjoy it.

Listen to it here.
Though they do discuss specific incidents, Five Women isnt just repeating this man did X to me stories.
In fact, the man in question is merely a side note.
In general, this podcast is produced byThe New York Times, and is an absolute staple.
And shes not an anomaly several of her colleagues suffered miscarriages within just a couple months of each other.
Listen to this, and think about where you spend your dollars.
Or at least tries to.
As youd expect, things rarely turn out simply.
And the same is true in the Rob episode of Heavyweight.
In this episode, Goldstein helps Hot Tub Time Machine actor Rob Corddry.
He remembers breaking his arm as a child.
Corddrys family doesnt recall it happening at all.
Generally podcasts that confront deep emotion are intriguing, but ultimately heavy.
Essential listening for humans.

Destination Amazing, The Dream
MLMs are bad.
Herbalife, Amway, Vemma.
Desperate people with sincere hopes for a better life?
An awful Poundland Tony Robbins-style motivational speaker?
A bunch of sociopathic money-sponging cunts exploiting an underclass of desperate people?
The Dream is excellent.
Goffard narrates the story in a gripping manner which always keeps you on the edge.
Its a thrilling story of a conman who trapped women to wriggle money from them.
The narration and storyline sound like they are part of a bestseller novel, but unfortunately its not.
As if that wasnt bad enough, negotiations for their release went south.

May your 2019 be filled with glorious podcast listening!
