we're getting into "best podcasts of 2024" time so it's a good moment to remind you that if your best podcast list for an entire year doesn't contain a single fiction podcast, your opinion on every podcast can be discarded

I mostly listen to fiction podcasts myself. Not a fan of true crime. Do you have any fiction podcast recommendations or sites or lists I should check out which would have good recs?
Gonna check out season 2 of Borrasca! I had the exact same problems with s1 as you did, so I'm glad to see that they took it in a more interesting direction.
can you imagine a best tv list by a major critic that was only true crime dramas and talk shows? that's most podcast lists. these people are not serious people
tbh 90% of my fave podcasts outside Night Vale and Random Horror 9 are tabletop actual plays both because I love TTRPGs and because there's so many interesting and creative people out there telling amazing stories through a table and dice and improvisational roleplay with their friends
is this the right time to mention that for a while I thought all podcasts were fiction because I was a teenager listening to Nightvale for 6 years before I learned there were Other Types
me learning that sometimes people just say their opinions into microphones and call it a podcast: hey guys where the fuck is the weather you forgot the weather

His take would be priceless on all things podcast and their place now in Americana.
