In the Summer of 2021, friends and colleagues Mary Kate and Solana were on a walk talking about what young ladies usually talk about: obituaries and murder. Well, in fact, many young women ages 18-35 are deeply interested in stories of death and murder. These women make up the dominant demographic listening to true crime podcasts. And these podcasts are a big deal, scoring millions of downloads a week. Other popular and creepy genres are also important to consider, like the obituary. Why are these genres such a big deal? Why aren't all kinds of people included? Join us as we consider genres about death and dying, and how some storytelling leaves certain kinds of bodies out.

EPISODE +1 Overlooked Bodies

This week's driving question is: what constitutes a grievable body? Mary Kate covers the obituary of a badass woman and hiker and Solana shares the story of a journalist out of LA who pushes back against true crime infotainment.

EPISODE 0: Brief Histories

How did we get to be so true crime obsessed? How did obituaries come to be the standardized last word after someone dies? And why should anyone care about true crime or obits, anyway? This week, Solana and Mary Kate will answer these questions and define concepts like the politics of loss and the grievable body.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
