American Skyjacker - the tale of Martin 'Mac' McNally who attempted to get away with $500k after hijacking a plane, about 4 eps in, good listen.
The Bomb - which is the story of Leo Szilard who flees Nazi Germany and discovers how to use Nuclear power to make a bomb, only listened to 1 ep, but seems promsing

NZ SIS (allegedly) broke into the Czech embassy in Wellington to steal the Soviets encryption codes.
interesting personal accounts. Typical NZ #8 wire she'll be right with a soupcon of Bond ; James Bond

Wow.
Obviously very long but incredibly enlightening and actually an endorsement of blm, the actual concept, not the political power grab.
2 blokes who work to help wrongfully convicted people in USA. Also shed light on the most ridiculous justice system in the history of mankind.
They had Joe rogan weeping
Wow.

@Tim Would have been good if they never made The Blair Witch Project. Bloody awful.
Great movie

started listening to Military Murder, unsure if it is (or will be) good as I am only 25 mins into ep1, but holy fuck, the actual murder and hours post-murder, WTF!

All American - S1 is about Tiger Woods.
Is ok, not quite what i was expecting, quite alot so far about Tiger not wanting things to be focussed on his race, particularly as he identifies as cablanasian* rather than black, which apparently pissed some people off.
*A person of mixed race consisting of Caucasian, Black, Asian.

With the Premier League kicking off this weekend I am enjoying The Football Writers Podcast. Not something I'd listen to religiously but a good overview of the game
Also RNZ Caucus - Panel discussion between Guyon Espiner, Lisa Owen, Tim Watkins & Scott Campbell on NZ election related issues that assumes the listener has a brain and the ability to focus for more than a nano-second.
