Live Breaking News & Updates on Audience surrogate

By Bethany “BST2” Armstrong
I have a helluva commute. I spend 9 hours a week – 10 if traffic is bad – on toll-roads and sky-bridges, weaving in and out of traffic, with naught but my brain for company. Too much introspection is bad for the soul. There is such a thing as over-hearing your favorite songs… I’ve been there; it’s hellish. I hate being read to, so audiobooks are out. That left listening to podcasts for something to while away the drive.
My absolute favorite is “Last Podcast on the Left.” Ben Kissel, Marcus Parks and Henry Zebrowski are deliciously dark and endlessly entertaining. They cover topics from serial killers to cults and true crime to conspiracies, but they interact so intimately it feels like you’re sitting around bullshitting with some friends. Marcus provides the in-depth research and wrangles back the others when they get too far off topic. Kissel is an adorably optimistic giant, the Audience Surrogate who eggs on Henry. Henry provides the role of the devil’s advocate – for every devil – and comedic relief.
