Don't know why I haven't done this before, as much time as I spend in my car, but finally joined the Podcast listening world this week.

Had 7 hours in the car the last two days, and enjoyed Dirty John.

Will be listening to S-Town next. Will have another 7 hours round trip this week, seems like a good start. In two weeks I will be in the car 6 hours on Saturday, 8 hours on Sunday, 4 hours on Thursday and 4 hours on Friday.

Any suggested Podcasts? Especially ones my wife and I would both enjoy, as opposed to just me.

I have listened to a few of the short stories and none of them have told me what they were about until the very end

I should get the Mike Rowe one. I'd work on his campaign if he'd run for President. Most common sense public figure alive.

And if I were President he'd be a policy czar for education and employment. His insight is keen and clear and he gets exactly what is wrong and exactly what to do.

And he seems like a really cool guy.

I finished the podcast on Dr. Death, as well as the one on Dirty John. I have now listened to several Mike Rowe the way I heard it podcast as well, and they are really good. Definitely has that Paul Harvey flair.

Mike Rowe is awesome. His self-narrating style on Dirty Jobs was great.
