The Black Tapes
Not all podcasts have to be dudes sat around a table, discussing a topic they know a lot about, making each other laugh in the process. If you’re a fan of Lore, The X-Files and podcast phenomenon Serial, then you should be listening to The Black Tapes podcast from Pacific Northwest Stories and Minnow Beats Whale.
Currently two episodes into its third season, the docudrama series follows journalist Alex Reagan as she investigates the eponymous black tapes belonging to ghost-hunter and paranormal debunker, Dr Richard Strand. The series features an overarching narrative; and much like The X-Files, each episode has its own mystery that needs unravelling. It’s spooky, well plotted and keeps you guessing all the way to the end.
