EarBuds Podcast Collective: A Surreal Wrap-Up
5 podcast episodes according to a theme, curated by a different person each week
CURATOR: Laurah Norton & Maura Currie
WHY THIS THEME?: 2020 has been a wild, surreal, too-long-please-get-us-off-this-thing ride. To wrap things up, we humbly present five pieces of audio storytelling that deal with the unexplainable, otherworldly, and escapist.
EPISODES:
One Strange Thing
22 minutes
This episode of our indie show takes listeners to mid-20th-century small-town America -- and a series of mysterious chemical attacks that terrorized residents.
The Hidden DjinnCome Out, Come Out, Wherever You Are42 minutes
Host Rabia Chaudry guides us on an immersive journey to pick apart and reassemble the mythological beings known as djinn.
The Conspirators Podcast
28 minutes
This is the riveting story of a very real Scottish castle and the nobility who are cursed to haunt it for all eternity.
Pleasing Terrors Last Breath 60 minutes
This story of piracy, slavery, and revolution makes it clear that American history is, and should be, haunted by its own ghosts.
Snap Judgement Presents: Spooked Take Me Home 32 minutes
This immersive story takes us through an eerie, very real experience that begins in a Wal-Mart parking lot and ends with a lingering unease in listeners’ imaginations.
GET IN TOUCH: Twitter SELF PROMO: We would love to promote The Trans Doe Task Force, who we know through work on our other podcast, The Fall Line. Per their website, “The Trans Doe Task Force was created to research cold cases in which the subject may have been transgender or gender-variant. TDTF also advises and educates the public, media, and law enforcement regarding the needs of and sensitive differences between Trans Doe cases and other Doe cases.” You can learn more here.
