A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

oddly specific objection aside, where podcasting really shines is fiction. it's the modern version of the radio drama. fiction podcasts like Welcome to Night Vale and Find Us Alive have narratives that are tailor-made for episodic audio and would not work in any other medium. a good fiction podcast is truly wonderful to listen to

Not exactly what you're talking about, but LeVar Burton Reads is amazing, too. It's like Reading Rainbow for grownups.

I’d toss The Magnus Archives on that list too, especially since it had a full 5 season arc with satisfying conclusion.

A “sequel” series just started, too! It was good from what I listened to

And I'll just add the Lovecraft Investigations to the list. Absolutely brilliant series.

Just going to quickly shill for The Amelia Project as well. Really fantastic little show.
