NEW RELEASES! Best New Podcast Episodes

[SpotifyPodcasts]

Knowing about the best podcasts out there is a great skill to have, you know-- you're always equipped for any conversation. For instance, imagine you're at a dinner party, and the entire table falls silent. Breaking the silence, a patron turns to you and says:

Hey, *Podcast Listener*, name the best podcasts. Give us 5 great podcasts to listen to, right now. 

Everyone turns to look at you, early awaiting your informed response. You take a deep breath, you can do this-- you listen to tons of podcasts. So...you give some recommendations! Maybe some that you've found here in the community, even! You did it! But wait-- Old Mr. Jerkins speaks up from the far end of the table:

I...I've already HEARD all of those! I want NEW episodes!

Subdued gasps fill the room. Mr Jerkins is at it again, but you won't be intimidated, because you read this post about the Best New Podcasts Episodes this week. Thank goodness you did that, eh?

Heavyweight

Jonathan Goldstein's Heavyweight is all about exploring people's big moments from the past. Stories like roadtrips, reunions, and difficult conversations come to life through the cleverly curated and edited show. In this return to force, the story of Brandon: a high-school misfit who found himself being asked to prom by the most popular girls in school. The one question is: Why?

Dissect

Cole Cuchna is the GOAT of music analysis-- we've featured him in the community several times for his commentary on Kayne West's work, for example. Now he's back with his universally celebrated show Dissect to discuss Mac Miller’s conceptual double album Swimming In Circles.

Revelations

Since 2018, journalist Jennings Brown has been deep undercover. Specifically, he's been integrating himself with a group-- an organization-- maybe a cult-- called the Fellowship of Friends. From extravagant opulence to sexual misdeeds to doomsday prediction and preparations, Jennings is aiming to bring the whole thing to light as the host in his new show: Revelations. 

Mediums

If there's one truly unanswerable question, it's this one: What happens to us after we die? While some believe the answer to that to be "nothing at all", humanity has a vast and storied history of coming with more...interesting answers. Join host Sheby Scott as she ventures through the world of the great beyond to investigate all of the mystical and mysterious ways that we've tried to explain that which is beyond ordinary. 

Belle Makes Twelve

Belle Makes Twelve, a stunning new rom-com from Meet Cute, details the story of the oldest sibling in a family of twelve. As she runs out of energy to support her family, will she still have time to take care of herself? And when romance is put on top of it all, will she be able to let her heart fall in love?
