A chapter-by-chapter walk through Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman — every building on Earth vanishes at 2:23 in the morning, and the survivors are dropped into an eighteen-floor dungeon broadcast to the galaxy as entertainment. Carl went outside in boxer shorts to catch the cat. Brutal, very funny, and far smarter than its premise lets on. Part of Booktok Podcasts.

Are you draining your actual soul to hit a corporate metric? Welcome to The Burnout Podcasts, the internet’s premier destination for high-achievers, workaholics, and exhausted professionals who are ready to stop killing themselves slowly. This season, we are executing a high-octane, laugh-out-loud funny biological and psychological audit built entirely around the dark relationship dynamics and brutal survival lore of Rebecca Yarros’s romantasy blockbuster, Onyx Storm. Hosted by Edith (the blunt, zero-BS expert strategist who treats emotional boundaries like tactical warfare) and Alan (the chronically anxious, overthinking desk-dweller who runs on corporate adrenaline and caffeine), we use fantasy tropes to expose your real-world dysfunctions. We prove that Xaden’s soul-draining "venin" corruption is the exact same thing as your unchecked hustle culture addiction. We show how Violet’s military-grade performance anxiety and chronic somatic warnings match the debilitating back pain you experience at your desk. We don't do dry, academic book summaries. We give you raw psychological tools to heal your nervous system, escape toxic relationships, overcome cognitive fatigue, and step into absolute self-leadership. Stop treating your health like a passive after-thought. Explore our 3-season archive, take what serves you, leave what doesn't, and reclaim the captain's seat of your life. A quick word about what we make, and then straight back to the book. ADVERTISE WITH US Your brand, in the ears of people who press play every single day.

Welcome to The Burnout Podcasts! What if the most ruthless, brilliant, broken people you have ever met are also the most compelling — and the most capable of pulling off the impossible? What if the darkest cities, the most dangerous heists, and the most unlikely alliances hold more truth about ambition, survival, and trust than anything on a self-help shelf? You are in the right place. This season, we are stepping into the criminal underworld of Ketterdam, following six misfits into a job so impossible it should not exist — and asking what their story reveals about our own hunger, our own wounds, and our own will to win.

Welcome to The Burnout Podcasts! What happens when two people who have both been broken by their pasts end up in the same small town, trying to outrun the things they cannot bring themselves to say out loud? What happens when the man sworn to protect everyone around him cannot protect himself — and the woman determined never to need anyone again desperately needs exactly him? You are in the right place. This season, we are diving into a story about secrets, survival, slow burns, and the terrifying act of letting someone see the parts of you that you have spent years hiding from the light.
