Podcast suggestions from my binge-listening session of yesterday of the beautiful Strangers, hosted by Lea Thau.
Life, Interrupted — a story that reminded me how random the course of our lives can be (and unfortunately, how the awful randomness is sometimes compounded by socioeconomic factors and lack of an adequate social safety net).
The Long Shadow — the intertwined stories of young men who were shot at the Empire State Building. The life and self of one of them changed forever, the life of another stolen from him, and what his mom makes of it.
