About Burning Addiction

Who would have thought the friendly face of the local fire captain would turn out to be the most prolific arsonist of the 20th century? Burning Addiction follows John Orr, a convicted serial arsonist and mass murderer, who was once a fire captain and arson investigator for the Glendale Fire Department in Southern California. Doug Staubs was his partner in the arson unit. Host Maria Staubs tells the story of her dad’s time with John along with others who knew him.

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.
