Description

Paperback reads. We love them cheap. We love them dirty. We love to ask: why are white men the only ones with inner lives or three-dimensional personalities? Hosts Amanda Meadows and Geoffrey Golden dig deep into the dollar bins of used bookstores and your grandmother’s storage unit, looking for pulp and sass. Dirt Cheap brings those long-lost stories to life, with a heavy dose of humor and a dash of schadenfreude. This season, we're reading Murder in the Glass Room, a Los Angeles noir novel starring Phil Norris, a misanthropic bookie-turned-detective who's bad at his job and obsessed with furniture.

It’s the poolside podcast you’ve been waiting for.

Reality TV is dismissed as guilty pleasure, low brow... even trash. But whether you want to admit it or not, you probably have heard of Snooki, Lisa Vanderpump or Kim Kardashian. Over the past 30 years, reality TV has become a place to see the social and political moment play out in real time -- from racial tensions on The Real World New York to gender dynamics on The Bachelor. On this season, join host Mariah Smith as she dissects the history of the genre one show at a time, revealing how it's shaped our culture and how our culture shaped it.

you are both so wrong saying that cops don’t care about domestic disturbance calls. Not only are they terribly dangerous, but my son, for one,(police detective sgt), when kids are there, especially, he takes it with him, disturbs him, causes him pain. Secondly, my mom would be 100 if she had not died at the age of 53, but she worked from the age of 16 up to and including the day she died, was a telephone operator. So yes, they had to know a lot.

Was enjoying the romp until you had to turn it political. Only took a show and a half.

I was enjoying this podcast until the female narrator insulted all Trump supporters twice in the first two episodes. That was enough for me. Seems stupid to an alienate half of the entire country's population.
