ETHICS IN TRUE CRIME: September 2026 podcast playlist
True crime has become a massive cultural phenomenon—but what happens when real people’s trauma, loss, and suffering become entertainment? This playlist explores the ethics of true crime from the perspectives of storytellers, journalists, victims, survivors, and listeners. We’ll consider questions about empathy, exploitation, sensationalism, privacy, and the responsibilities of both creators and consumers. As you listen, think about where you draw the line between telling an important story and turning someone else’s tragedy into entertainment.
DeafBlindness: June 2026 podcast playlist
This month, we’re diving deep into a world that is too often misunderstood, overlooked, and defined by harmful stereotypes and assumptions. Deafblindness is a unique dual sensory disability that shapes how people communicate, navigate, and thrive — and it’s time we listen, learn, and unlearn. These episodes go beyond raising awareness; they challenge misconceptions head-on, amplify the voices of Deafblind individuals, and shine a light on the urgent need for advocacy, accessibility, and genuine inclusion in every area of life — from education and employment to healthcare, technology, and everyday social spaces. Whether you’re personally connected to this experience or showing up as an ally, this playlist is an invitation to expand your perspective, break down barriers, and become a more informed and active advocate. Happy DeafBlind Awareness Month!
