I love to listen to audio dramas while I work, but I go through them so fast. Anyone have suggestions for a high quality, interesting audio drama? The very first one I listened to was We're Alive and I've been hooked ever since. Thanks.

What are you into? My two main recommendations are:

1865 Which follows the events around the assignation of US President Abraham Lincoln.

And

Passenger List which is a podcast about a plane that goes missing, and a potential conspiracy to keep it's whereabouts unknown.

I'm really open to everything! I have easily listened to 3 dozen + dramas, some great and some not so much. Sci-fi has always been a go to for me, but I love history (Hardcore History is an amazing podcast in my opinion) and true crime (Serial kept me glued to my seat). I like to share audio dramas with my teenager so we listen to a lot of horror and dystopia tales. Thank you for the suggestions, I will check them out tomorrow during brush clearing!

I listened to a show called 'The Black Tapes Podcast' and that deals with supernatural horror and stuff. Iirc it's got a pretty subpar ending though, so...you know brace for that if you take the plunge.

I'll give it a go. I've grown accustomed to sub par endings in stories or no ending at all, but I can still find joy in the main body of work. Thanks for the suggestion.
