Bad People - No Spoilers!
This BBC true crime(ish) podcast is a mix of case coverage and psychology. Hosts Dr. Julia Shaw (she/her) and Sofie Hagen (they/them) both bring different expertise to the show as well as sometimes conflicting opinions. As her title suggests Shaw is a psychologist from Canada who has been an honorary Research Associate in Psychology at University College London since 2017 and was a contributor to Scientific American between 2015 and 2017. Hagen is award-winning Danish comedian and author. They are so sweet and one of my favorite parts of the show. The cases the two present often have challenging questions posed with them such as how should we punish kids and who marries a serial killer. To answer these questions Shaw cites relevant psychological experiments and brings in the rare guest. Apple podcasts has 4.5 stars, 136 ratings, and 28 written reviews. Episodes release weekly on Thursdays when the show is in season. So far there are 64 episodes and on average they are about 35 minutes long. Episode 14. Piggy's Palace 2: Are serial killers intelligent is the most popular but keep in mind it is the second part of a two-parter. My favorites were 63. No socks: Why do people confess their crimes and 4. Cannibal Cop: What is your darkest fantasy. I listened to all the episodes back to back in a couple of days. In celebration of Pride Month, the show is currently covering the history, science, and culture of bisexuality while still staying true to its criminal theme. The show is scripted but with only light clues to suggest it. You will find some comments targeting the way Shaw talks to Hagen in the pod’s reviews but I didn’t think it was bad. A lot of different extreme content warnings but briefed at the beginning of each episode and sometimes right before a particularly jarring segment. Music is short and fitting.
