It's 2023/2024 and Steve Buscemi is now more attractive than Mickey Rourke

"Dark Histories" has some disturbing ones, as it is usually about strange events or Indeed murders, but the descriptions of the episodes allow you to weed through it, and leave those ones out.

I really enjoyed the ones about "Gef the mongoose" or the disappearance of the man who invented the first moving pictures. It goes deep into the history and times surrounding the stories which is very cool, so its main focus is history and society.

Why does this have so many down votes? Am I missing something?

I really mistrust any picture I see online now. It's scary I think. I'm still not convinced about this one.

On my long commute I usually listen to:

We can be weirdos: Dan Schreiber from "No such thing as a fish" interviews some interesting people about their odd (and often supernatural) experiences.

Dark Histories: A very thorough dive into a specific crime case or strange event from history. The host really goes deep into the subject which is cool.

No such thing as a fish: most people know it I assume.

Loremen: a little like Dark Histories, but on the funny side, about folklore and history.

My mate bought a toaster: people getting interviewed about their Amazon purchase history. It's pretty funny.

The only real answer for me as well.

Oh my god, I loved Connections! It really was a great show.

I never went to school from 7 to 19. Where do you go to school?

They were "shh" back in the day, but with time they have become more of a place for activity for the community. When I was a kid in the 80s and early 90s they were definitely more strict with keeping quiet, especially in the reading halls. Library history is actually quite interesting, and the whole development of the library as a key element in building and supporting democracy and community, is worth looking into.

 

...the Mbabaram word for "dog" was in fact dúg, pronounced almost identically to the Australian English word...

 

And he's always happy to see me, so I think we are hitting it off
