A hilarious, smart and incredibly singular debut from Raven Smith, whose exploration of the minutiae of everyday modern life and culture is totally unique and painfully relatable. Is being tall a social currency? Am I the contents of my fridge? Does yoga matter if you’re not filthy rich? Is a bagel four slices of bread? Are three cigarettes a meal?

Six of David's best men lie dead and he is nowhere to be found. Georgina may have walked away from the game but she's still the best player on the street.

This story begins long before the chaos, long before the moves, long before the pact, long before the storm. It begins in the quiet space where two minds met and recognised something familiar in each other. Nate wasn’t looking for anything. Lucy wasn’t ready for anything. But sometimes life doesn’t wait for readiness. Sometimes it just happens. Their conversations were simple at first. Light. Easy. Two people talking because talking felt good. Two people connecting because connection felt natural. Two people laughing because laughter came without effort. It wasn’t dramatic.

Growing up on the towpaths, Young Froggy learned the rules of survival long before he learned the rules of childhood. While other kids collected toys, he collected street cred — the kind earned from storms no child should ever have to weather. This is the story of a boy who became tough because the world gave him no other choice. A boy who learned to stay small, stay quiet, stay unseen… until the day he realised he didn’t have to.

On January 31, 2000, just hours after Super Bowl XXXIV, Baltimore Ravens star linebacker Ray Lewis and a group of friends got into an altercation outside of a club in Atlanta’s affluent Buckhead neighborhood. Within seconds, two men -- Richard Lollar and Jacinth Baker -- were dead in the street. Lewis and two friends, Joseph Sweeting and Reginald Oakley, were charged with murder. A media frenzy ensued, but in the end, all three defendants walked free. Less than a year after the killings, Lewis became a Super Bowl champion. He ended his Hall of Fame career with another title in 2013, and is...

The Legacy of Innocence is the true story of Phillip—a gentle, vulnerable young man whose world was small, fragile, and shaped entirely by routine, trust, and innocence. Through your eyes, the listener witnesses the quiet beauty of his life, the challenges he faced, and the profound impact he had on the people around him—especially you. Phillip lived with a purity that the world often overlooked. He didn’t judge, didn’t hate, didn’t pretend. He moved through life with a soft smile, a humble pride, and a deep reliance on the kindness of others.

Raven Sky came up with the title as an oxymoron. She raised the question, Where would you be if you changed your choice at any point in your life? If you changed your choice from what you did choose to another? Would you have gone through the same challenges or maybe you wouldn't? Would you become the person you are now if you didn't choose the path you chose in the past? So by coming up with this title, it was meant to be humorous. If she chose to be a nun, she would not have learned the lessons or gone through the challenges she has gone through to make her who she is today.

What happens when a burnt-out tech professional ditches the comforts of modern life and hikes 2,650 miles across the Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada? A head-on collision of midlife crisis and wilderness reality, where he’s never felt more alive. Somewhere between blisters, bear poop, and resupply, it clicks. Those cryptic ideas of Zen and Taoism he skimmed almost two decades ago—about ‘simplicity’ and ‘attachment, ’ the kind most of us flag as hippie nonsense, actually started making a whole lot of sense.

Using the story of Raven and the Box of Daylight (and relating it to Sun Tzu’s equally timeless Art of War) to deepen her narration and reflection, Hayes expresses an ongoing frustration and anger at the obstacles and prejudices still facing Alaska Natives in their own land, but also recounts her own story of attending and completing college in her 50s and becoming a professor and a writer.

Discovering Her Voice shares my journey to becoming a Speech/Language Pathologist. During my career I enabled over 900 children and adolescents to find their individual voices. After years of helping them learn to use their voices, it was my turn to find mine. The person I am today, is in part, because of the incidents I endured.

True Crime/Missing Persons/Cold Cases- I decided to begin a podcast regarding true crime because I feel like some of the victim's story never gets told due to it being to graphic or not admissible in court. I also think that Justice is lost in some of these cases and it's not right. I hope I can be a voice for the ones who lost theirs and perhaps make this world a slightly better place, and have you thinking more cautiously.
