    S1 Ep#42: The Apology Line

    It started as a social experiment in 1981. You'd call a phone number and leave a message in which you would apologize for a crime or misdeed you'd committed. But to the man who created it, Allan Bridge, the “Apology Line” became a fascination. On this episode, we feature The Apology Line podcast from Wondery and speak to the host, Marissa Bridge, wife of "Mr. Apology", who details the behind-the-scenes story of the social phenomenon and the man who created it.

The result is his podcast, Scattered, from WNYC Studios. Often funny and always touching, Scattered follows Chris as he attempts to learn the story of his dad’s life and honor his last request.

    Bonus Ep: Best of "Last 5 Minutes, No One Is Listening" Part 1

    No one listens to the last 5 minutes of any podcast. And so each week Zack and our guests use that time to reveal secrets, get something off their chest, or just share something personal. It’s resulted in some of our best audio. Unfortunately, no one has heard it because, well, no one was listening. Until now. This week we present Part 1 of "The Best of No One’s Listening."

    S1 Ep#38: Gamblers

    To some, gambling isn’t much of a gamble. Certainly no more risky than investing in the stock market. Of course, there is the chance you’ll get hassled by law enforcement, the government, or “rolled” in a convenience store parking lot for the wad of cash hidden in your shoe. Our featured podcast this week is Gamblers from The Ringer Network. Author and journalist, David Hill joins us to talk about his deep-dive into the lives of professional gamblers.
