Dr. Death is good - there are 3 series, different stories, all compelling (to me at least!)

player.fm

Dr. Death

We’re at our most vulnerable when we go to our doctors. But what happens when we can’t trust them? Dr. Death is the award-winning series hosted by Laura Beil, now in its fourth season: Bad Magic. Need more Dr. Death? With Wondery+, you can listen to all episodes, unlock exclusive content, get...

Dr. Death | S2: Dr. Fata

If someone you love is diagnosed with cancer you want them to get the best treatment from the best doctors. In 2013, patients in Michigan thought Farid Fata was that doctor. Between his prestigious education, years of experience and pleasant bedside manner, Fata was everything you could want in...

Dr. Death | S3: Miracle Man

Paolo is a smart and handsome surgeon, renowned for his ability to perform surgeries that transform his patients’ lives. When television producer Benita covers him for a story, he’ll transform her life too, but not in the ways she expects. As Benita crosses professional lines to be with him, she...

Came across "Dissecting the 80s" recently

Two brothers breaking down 80s movies and tv shows, some episodes are better than others but overall a solid listen if you're interested in 80s movies.

player.fm

Dissecting The 80s

Tripp and Andrew Laino have been watching movies together since 1992, and making fun of them together since 1999, when a rainy afternoon of babysitting turned into 8 hours of cheesy science fiction and jokes. Raised on a strict diet of 80s movies, the pair have an undying love for the decade and...

The Drop Out is very good. As is Bad Blood, on the same subject, hosted by John Carreyrou who wrote the book of the same name and is largely responsible for the downfall of Theranos.

app.podcastguru.io

The Dropout | Podcast Guru

Money. Romance. Tragedy. Deception. The story of Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos is an unbelievable tale of ambition and fame gone terribly wrong. How did the world's youngest self-made female billionaire lose it all in the blink of an eye? How did the woman once heralded as "the next Steve Jobs"...

Bad Blood: The Final Chapter | Podcast Guru

She was once the world's youngest self-made female billionaire. Now Elizabeth Holmes, founder of the blood-testing startup Theranos, stands accused of leading a massive fraud, and lying to investors, doctors, and patients about the capabilities of her technology. If convicted, she faces up to 20...

Fascinating "success" story, unicorn start-up company ($1billion plus valuation). Interesting podcast on BBC Sounds

Horrible company selling mostly shit beer. Their valuation is insane and based on sand given their "investment" from the private equity fund is really very expensive convertible debt.

And calling yourself "Captain" because you drove one of your daddy's fishing boats for a couple of years is beyond pathetic. The CEO is a bellend of epic proportions.

That podcast is worth a listen though.

Some of their beer is pretty good (and should be for the price!) though I'd wish they concentrate on consistent quality rather than endless specials you see once and never again. On a hot summers day their Elvis Juice is very drinkable.

Not so keen on their pubs though as they are just industrial barns and they don't like you hanging around the bar. Food is rather underwhelming too.

They still pretend that they are a startup taking on the big boys yet their beer is now available in almost every pub and supermarket. Can't argue that they are brilliant at self-promotion though.

George Groves Boxing Club. You get a real honesty here from a recently retired top level sportsman. He pulls in some quality interviewees too and looks at different aspects each week (eg training, money, defeats). Co-hosted by a boxing journo to help keep it on track.

The George Groves Boxing Club

Former world champion George Groves is retired in his mid-thirties, so he's started a boxing club with his mate Dec. Guest episodes every Wednesday, and the club reviews the biggest fights on a Monday. Get in touch @ggboxingclub on the socials.

Fall of Civilisations is excellent.

app.podcastguru.io

Fall of Civilizations Podcast | Podcast Guru

A history podcast looking at the collapse of a different civilization each episode. What did they have in common? Why did they fall? And what did it feel like to watch it happen?
app.podcastguru.io app.podcastguru.io

Really well researched and narrated. It tells the story of a different civilisation in each episode and goes onto their way of life etc and their eventual demise. I had forgotten about it for months but am back into it now again and I'm really enjoying it.
