recommended by: Emily Porter-Fyke, Research & Instruction Librarian
"Self-described as “a twice-monthly podcast in the style of community updates for the small desert town of Night Vale, featuring local weather, news, announcements from the Sheriff's Secret Police, mysterious lights in the night sky, dark hooded figures with unknowable powers, and cultural events. Turn on your radio and hide.”
Exploring the Lord of the Rings
recommended by: Matt Schirano, Senior Research & Instruction Librarian
"A VERY close reading of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Each episode is 2.5-3 hours long and we’re on Episode 150. We are in the middle of the Council of Elrond… it’s great and I love it and don’t judge me."
recommended by: Lisa Thornell, Student Engagement & Outreach Librarian
"It is inspiring to hear from the founders of companies and how many times they failed before they got it right! The first one I listened to was with the founder of Rent the Runway. I chose episodes about the companies that I like/products I use. A few of my favs: Tate’s Cookies, Whole Foods, Power Rangers, Five Guys, Aden+Anais, Stonyfield Yogurt, Burt’s Bees and so many more."
