5 Podcasts To Listen To If You Love True Crime
PowerPress Podcast

Podcasts have been growing in popularity. If you have free time at work or a long commute, podcasts are the perfect thing to listen to. They make the time go by fast, and you fill your time with some useful information. True crime podcasts are great to listen to because it is a story of a case or crime story being told to you.

1. My Favorite Murder

While the title is a bit off-putting, the two hosts Karen and Georgia give a light-heartedness to true crime. Sometimes listening to these horrific tales can put a damper on your day, but the hosts make it a bit more enjoyable when they make jokes about their inability to pronounce certain names.

2. Sword & Scale

This is for the person that loves well-researched cases and audio clips from court hearings and interviews. "Sword & Scale" takes you step by step, providing evidence and first hand accounts into cases.

3. Generation Why

Not only exploring true crime but other topics related to it, "Generation Why" is a great way to listen opinions and insights on certain cases and topics.

4. True Crime Garage

This podcast is a perfect mix between fact, theory and comedy. The two hosts, Nick and Captain, drink beers while discussing true crime cases in their garage. As they get increasingly drunker, they start to make the stories even more enticing.

5. Once Upon A Crime

This podcast is short and sweet. It gets right to the point of the cases, without anything interfering. If you’re looking for good stories about true crime, but not committed to long episodes (or even multiple part episodes), then this podcast does a great job.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
