Controversy abounds as the team reviews last week's podcast offerings. Which of the podcasts got our Castologists in a tizz? You'll have to listen to find out. Then, we back away from potential blows just in time to recommend new podcasts for your ears to enjoy: Imagined Life from Liz, Revisionist History from Patrick and NRIWoman Podcast from Zane (a reader submission!).

Liz Recommends - Imagined Life

https://wondery.com/shows/imagined-life/

A delightful podcast that's part story, part history and part game. "Have you ever wondered what it would feel like to walk in the shoes of a legend and not even realize it? IMAGINED LIFE takes you there.

Each episode guides listeners on an immersive journey through the surprising moments and challenges that shaped someone’s life before they were famous. Clues about your identity are dropped along the way, but only at the end will you learn who “you” are.

Part mystery, part deeply immersive story, and part inspiration for how to weather life’s unexpected trials, Imagined Life shows just how connected we all are."

Liz and Zane have taken to messaging each other to start every new ep at the EXACT same time to try to see who is first at guessing who the "you" this week is. (Zane normally wins because let's face it, he has an encyclopedic knowledge on pretty much everything.)

For both: The Performer, The Trailblazer, The Rebel, The Officer

Pat Recommends - Revisionist History

Malcollm Gladwell may be a familiar name to many of you. He's an esteemed author, journalist, public speaker, and as of 2016 a podcaster. Each episode he'll invite listeners along to an adventure through an often obscure part of history to explore a person, event, or idea through a novel lens.

For Zane & Liz: Whatever you like the sound of.

Zane Recommends - NRIWoman Podcast

https://nriwoman.com/

Another Submission from Zane! NRI (Non-Resident of India) Woman Podcast began as a Facebook page in 2016 by two close friends, Bettina Tauro and Ninorah Brookshire. Both Indians by birth but living outside of India. It began with the intention of starting conversations with other like-minded women in the Middle East and around the world. Each week they chat with guests who share their story. Conversations cover topics ranging from family, marriage, career, kids to fashion and more.

For Pat: 27 A Girls Faith

For Liz: 26 Her STEM
