Reverie—a word that evokes dreamy introspection, yet not all daydreams are serene. Sometimes, when our minds wander, they lead us into shadowy corners filled with intrusive thoughts, fears, and questions about the darker aspects of humanity. These unsettling reveries can spiral into haunting curiosity about the crimes, mysteries, and injustices that mark our world.
Paige shares stories of unspeakable crimes and their lasting impacts. She also speaks with survivors, victims' loved ones, and fellow storytellers, creating a space where the weight of these stories is honored with empathy and respect. Occasionally, Paige ventures into the realm of haunting, paranormal tales that blur the line between reality and nightmare.
Her goal is to illuminate the darkness, bringing attention to injustices, overlooked details, and the human stories woven into each crime. This podcast is not only about telling stories—it's about understanding them, confronting them, and, hopefully, learning from them.
You can email case suggestions and even your personal paranormal/strange and/or crime related stories to ReverieTrueCrime@gmail.com

Shootings are not unusual in Belize. Shootings of cops are, and Jasmine is part of one of the most powerful families in Belize. This is the biggest news story in a generation.

Over twelve 40 minute episodes, Josh speaks to Jasmine, her inner circle, and a wide spectrum of Belizean locals, journalists, and expats as the investigation into Henry Jemmott's death unfolds in real time — from the week of the shooting on May 28, 2021 to the present day. The story gets right into the craggy depths of Belize: its corruption, its quirks, and the fascinating life of its most powerful person, the dual nature British business titan Lord Michael Ashcroft.

As a new authoritarian movement rises in American politics, stoked by one of the country’s most outrageous demagogues, there is an all-out international manhunt for an American traitor. The U.S. Army’s Nazi war crimes trials in Germany have been infiltrated by a spy -- a mole for the other side. A gruesome foreign influence operation unfolds in Washington. A blackmail plot turns deadly in the U.S. Senate. A Hail Mary scheme to stop the counting of the Electoral College votes rattles democracy’s cage. With the line between the violent ultra-right and mainstream American politics fraying beyond recognition, with the FBI always one step behind their quarry, Americans of all stripes step up to confront a seemingly unstoppable, ascendant, anti-democratic force.

A strange letter appears on a city councillor’s desk in Birmingham, England, laying out an elaborate plot by Islamic extremists to infiltrate the city’s schools. The plot has a code name: Operation Trojan Horse. The story soon explodes in the news and kicks off a national panic. By the time it all dies down, the government has launched multiple investigations, beefed up the country’s counterterrorism policy, revamped schools and banned people from education for the rest of their lives. To Hamza Syed, who is watching the scandal unfold in his city, the whole thing seemed ... off. Because through all the official inquiries and heated speeches in Parliament, no one has ever bothered to answer a basic question: Who wrote the letter? And why? The night before Hamza is to start journalism school, he has a chance meeting in Birmingham with the reporter Brian Reed, the host of the hit podcast S-Town. Together they team up to investigate: Who wrote the Trojan Horse letter? They quickly discover that it’s a question people in power do not want them asking. From Serial Productions and The New York Times comes The Trojan Horse Affair: a mystery in eight parts.

On the Media is a weekly show that uses the media as a lens to understand our world. On the Media listeners say the show is an essential companion, helping them survive the firehose of media coming at them 24/7. Hosted by Brooke Gladstone and Micah Loewinger, the show does not do ‘hot takes’, instead offering listeners context, historical parallels, media analysis and often a much appreciated deep exhale. On the Media hosts have an eye on the nuances and details regularly missed by other outlets which helps listeners understand where they should be paying attention (and what they can afford to ignore). Our media diets have untruths woven in, and inconvenient truths left out. These are the bits explored every week at On the Media.

They provide comprehensive coverage of the latest headlines, breaking news stories, and in-depth analysis on various subjects of public interest. The specific topics covered depend on the focus and expertise of the news podcast and the ongoing news cycle.

Can news podcasts offer different perspectives or biases?

Yes, news podcasts can offer different perspectives or biases based on the hosting organization or the individual hosts.

It's important for listeners to be aware of potential biases and seek a variety of news sources to form a well-rounded understanding of current events.

Can news podcasts replace traditional news sources like newspapers or TV news?

News podcasts can provide a convenient and accessible way to stay informed, but they should not be seen as a complete replacement for traditional news sources.

Can news podcasts address local news and regional events?

Yes, news podcasts can address local news and regional events, although the extent of coverage may vary.

However, there are also news podcasts specifically dedicated to local or regional news, providing in-depth reporting and analysis of events happening within specific communities or geographical areas.
