Audiochuck sets the gold standard for how a podcast should sound. Their flagship show, Crime Junkie, consistently delivers well-researched, original reporting that gets straight to the point. What I appreciate most, however, is their authentic presentation style. They sound like actual humans engaged in genuine storytelling. It is such a breath of fresh air compared to the annoying 'podcasty' sound that plagues so many other shows right now. I am so tired of the 'print-to-audio uncanny valley'—that highly manufactured style where hosts use oddly toned, unnatural 'NPR voices' and rely on painfully slow, movement-by-movement descriptions to manufacture drama. Audiochuck skips the over-scripted faux-banter and theatrical teleprompter-reading entirely. Highly recommend.I will agree tho, Britt is kinda annoying at times; overly incredulous.
