Rotten but still a little sweet! Rotten Mango is a true crime + all things spooky podcast. We love doing deep dives into the darkest crimes and we tend to not leave out any details - which can get a little rotten at times. If you want deep dives in the psychology of killers, no holding back storytelling of crimes, and stories of lesser known criminals from around the world this is the place for you. Welcome to Rotten Mango but don’t worry it all comes with a seasoning of comedy/sweetness.

Cowan and this is Rereading My Childhood - The Podcast. Join me as I read about surprisingly organized middle school clubs, pranks that end in murder, and goo. Lots and lots of goo.

Melissa and Charish are two women in their mid-thirties who everyone says should be sh*tting out their own children by now, but are still caught up in relating almost everything they talk about with each other through the lens of the industrious lives of some babysitters from "Stonybook" CT.

The podcast is an absurd -- but still somehow poignant -- refl ...
