Still reading Starsight by Brandon Sanderson, second book of Skyward (Cytoverse) series. About half done. It’s interesting to get more details about the world.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening?

    Sorry for butting in but I thought I’d hop on the podcast recommendation diversion because I’m also always looking for recommendations.

    • This Sounds Serious is good if you like true crime, but it’s a comedic parody of the tropes of true crime with solid story telling.

    • Hello From the Magic Tavern is an interesting take on an interview-style podcast.

    • Risky or Not is a short form podcast about food science and if sometimes odd practices actually put you at risk

    • Wind of Change is an interesting look at if the Scorpions were intended to bring down communism

    • And if you’re a political junky in the US, Strict Scrutiny and Prosecuting Donald Trump are interesting updates from legal experts on the Supreme Court and the Trump cases.

      I haven’t listened to any legal podcasts since the uh… change of host on Opening Arguments a couple of years ago, and I’ve been avoiding US politics as much as possible for my own sanity because I’m on the opposite side of the world & I’ve been bombarded with it daily since about 2015, but this Strict Scrutiny sounds interesting.

        Oh, I remember coming across that drama from the American Atheists side. I forgot there was a legal podcast in the mix. Oof.
