A friend got me hooked on the female real-crime podcast "My Favorite Murder," even though I need to cover my ears for some parts, because I'm a wuss when it comes to real crime stories.
However, what really fuels the show are the two female hosts and storytellers, who are the best kind of crazy.

Another favorite media thing of mine is the daily audiobook recommendation from AudioFile Magazine skill I receive through Alexa
Audiobook Recommendations from AudioFile Magazine [AudioFile is spelled capital a u d i o capital f i l e]

especially this week's theme is strong women.

This morning's recommendation was for "Stay Sexy and Don't Get Murdered," by the "My Favorite Murder" hosts. The title comes from their traditional show sign off. Parts of the audiobook are recorded with the hosts reading in front of their live audience, so it does manage to capture some of the Captain marvel-like "Because, fuck you" tone of the podcasts.

I was a little conflicted about the excerpt AudioFile chose to use, because it mocks the use of the word "self-care" which, in the world of PWD, is of huge importance, despite its more, um, self-indulgent use as framed by the show hosts.

Also, if you are a regular reader of audiobooks, I highly recommend the AudioFile Magazine Alexa skill, especially this week's focus on strong women.
Note: AudioFile is spelled capital a u d i o capital f i l e.

You're made of stronger stuff than me -- the true crime fandom creeps me out.
