    Reading the top 20 podcast list is fascinating. I’m rather surprised by the amount of pop psychology meets hustle-grind culture on there. The true crime stuff was expected, but the pop psychology/“Master your mindset bro™©®” is concerning but also explains a lot of the normie/mainstream stuff I hear and see online these days.

      It’s kind of funny that all the true crime podcasts bill themselves as a kind of “bet you never heard about this!” kind of thing, only now everyone knows about everything they talk about because there’s so many of those podcasts floating around.
