  • The Dork Night Podcast
    Great Chemistry

    Really fun to listen to; the varying hosts have a very good chemistry/rapport, and their interactions are genuinely fun to listen to. The episodes I've listened to have been well structured, and the host has a great grasp of how to keep things moving. I'd check it out if I were you. Audio quality varies due to the teleconference-y recording (which is more than excusable); all the same, a perfectly enjoyable podcast.
  • UFO Paranormal Radio Network
    A terrific UFO interview, w/ feeling

    I sense something heart felt, almost too real, and a suffering. Absorbing & only the 2nd UFO case I can say I truly believe in really Tina

Heck of a program. 
Always informative, thoughtful, and funny as hell. And what cool guests... even when I've never heard of them I learn something.
