One Of My Favorites

Absurd in the best ways possible, this show is mostly about community and the effects, knowingly and unknowingly, people have on each other's lives. Some great and fun stylistic storytelling, including: letters, recordings, Google calendars, monologues, narration, and real-world interviews. Weaves together the storylines of several distinct characters and makes them and their dynamics interesting and memorable. Not exclusively a comedy, but one of the funniest podcasts I've listened to. Balances humor (ex. a kidnapping scene in which the kidnappers, victim, and a ghost argue over how to pluralize 'hippopotamus') and emotional storylines (dealing with grief and systemic racism).
