The Lonely Palette - No Spoilers!
Before I found this podcast I only knew of art as something you learn to do. I didn’t know that there was a way of thinking about it that didn’t involve learning how to do it. Now I’m obsessed. This podcast is truly about appreciation of art and its history. Every episode starts with a piece of art and then goes into everything else about it including how it makes some feel, what you see, what it means (both when it was made and now), who the artist was, the type of art it is, social implications, and so much more. Do yourself a favor, look up the artwork for the episode. Take a good minute to look at it and think of what you see. You’re going to learn way more listening than you have in any art history course. A member of the Hub & Spoke collective, it’s hosted by Tamar Avishai, an art historian and adjunct lecturer at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston with production assistance from Debbie Blicher, an independent radio producer and essayist. One of my favorite things about the show is how it is so accessible. It’s bringing a perspective of art some may never have heard, and it’s letting you get to know pieces you may never be able to visit. For even more to enjoy, check out their website. There you’ll find images referenced, links, artist interview transcripts, super cute merch, a virtual tour sign-up, and a newsletter sign-up. On Apple Podcasts the show has 4.9 out of 5 stars and 680 Ratings. That speaks for itself. Episodes are still coming out albeit slowly. The latest release was November 1, 2024. So far there are 68 episodes that are on average about an hour long. While most episodes are about examining an artwork, there are others that interview artists, and introduce other shows in the network. If you enjoy art and can’t seem to get enough, let this be the self-care time you deserve.

Ripple - No Spoilers!
This investigative podcasts starts out with a question - how well do you remember the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill that devastated the American Gulf Coast in 2010? It was all over the news, and then..it wasn’t. The lies and denial that plagued the disaster and still haunt the region to this day are the subjects of this stunningly well done podcast. From APM and Western Sound, this series goes all the way back to the initial events and the decisions that would have decades long consequences to ask if the enormous clean up efforts and restorations we saw plastered on our televisions was the tidy conclusion we all thought it was and how can it be possible to put a price on justice when health and the environment are priceless? Made up of thoughtful and encompassing reporting, this gut wrenching reexamination of the events is hosted by Dan Leone and told with help from those who lived through the disaster. It was published as eight episodes that were all about an hour long. The show itself seems to be set up to have more seasons on other topics but for now just has the first season on Deepwater Horizon. The show has 4.9 stars from 362 reviews and was compared to likes of Serial by many. Transcripts are available if needed on the pod’s website. Trigger warnings for grave health conditions, injuries, and death.

Transcript:
Murder Under the Midnight Sun: This Age of Radio true crime podcast concentrates on missing person/unsolved cases from Alaska. Hosted by Arielle Young it covers so many cases that I haven’t heard in other podcasts and that are specific to Alaska. You can tell how well the cases are researched and Young does a great job of explaining the details of each case without sensationalizing them. Young is the show’s only host which means there’s no banter. Because the podcast is single hosted it is scripted but in a very conversational way that makes the cases interesting. Like with most pods, the beginning episodes leave a little to be desired in terms of audio quality, but Young very quickly learns the ropes and later episodes are much better. Apple Podcast has it at 3.7 out of 5 stars with 187 ratings. The podcast seems to have ended in 2021 at 61 episodes that were on average about 39 minutes long. Its most popular episode according to OwlTail was 43 – Who Killed Bonnie?
