Podcast 125. Katie Austin Workouts

Podcast 125. Katie Austin Workouts. "Energizing Yoga Inspired Bodyweight Flow." Released October 5, 2026. This is currently ranked 35. I dec ided to make this my exercise for the day as I was curious how I would feel about yoga. I think if someone videoed my attempts at yoga it would be classified as a comedy. I had a tough time following the instructions and balancing. It was interesting experience. I probably won't do yoga again unless another podcast does it as continue my quest for the top 100 podcasts.

Podcast 124. Just Trish

Podcast 124. Just Trish. "Trisha's Sister Kalli Comes Out & Shows Ring From Girlfriend." Episode 316. Released October 2, 2026. Currently ranked 70. This episode is two hours and one minute. The host was super excited that her sister decided she was a lesbian. There was a lot of man hating conversation. Most of the podcast was just braindead nonsense. They talked about Lindsay Clancy toward the end. Of course they think she is innocent. Not just that she wasn't accountable according to the law but that she didn't even do it. Her defense didn't make that argument in court. I haven't followed this case beyond what I hear on podcasts. My strongest opinion is that you shouldn't be able to use various mental illnesses as an excuse to get out of murder. That even if someone has mental issues, they should still go to prison. It's ridiculous that the prosecution is required to prove Lindsey's state of mind in Massachussetts.

Podcast 123. Chilling Scares

Podcast 123. Chilling Scares. "5 Most Disturbing Cases of Real Found Footage." October 1, 2026. Currently ranked 63. This podcast showed and narrator talked about five videos found. One was a guy talking about how he was going to torture and murder some people in a cult that had abused him as a child. He ended up killing himself after the first murder. The next one was a woman confessing to killing her children. The next one was teenagers exploring an abandoned mine. One of them fell 60 feet when the rope broke. They got out and got help. They all recovered fine. The next one was about some divers trying to open up pipes getting sucked into the pipes. Four of them died as no rescue attempt was made. Which is pretty outrageous. The fifth video was a scuba diver who died going to a dangerous place where others warned him not to go without more preparation.

Podcast 122. Radar

Podcast 122. Radar. "Radar: Meet Adéla." September 22, 2026. Currently ranked 36. This episode was seven minutes long. This one was at least a real podcast in that there was talking involved. It was this singer Adéla telling her background. She is from Slovakia. Grew up on smuggled pop music. She liked the Disney channel growing up and Miley Cyrus.

Podcast 121. MTV VMAs.

Podcast 121. MTV VMAs. "Storm II -Live at the 2026 MTV VMAs." September 28, 2026. This is currently ranked number two. This was quite the change from the last podcast as this one was only three minutes long. It is unclear how Spotify justifies itself in calling this a podcast for the podcast list. It was a musical performance with zero talking.

Podcast 120. Lex Fridman Podcast

Podcast 120. Lex Fridman Podcast."#502. Psychiatry, Insane Asylums, Mental Illness, ECT, Lobotemies, Freud & Jung." September 17, 2026. It was ranked 73 when I began and unranked when I finished. The episode I listened to was 3 hours and 43 minutes long. I though a lot of the history of treating mental illness was interesting. It was a conversation with Andrew Scull, who is a historian of psychiatry. He had a lot of info on the mistakes that were made throughout history.

Podcasts 103-118

Podcast 103. JYP Podcast. Released August 17, 2026. "Inside 3RACHA's Inspiration. Current ranking is 62. This is a Korean language podcast with English subtitles. Unfortunately, I can't read the subtitles as I listen while I am doing other things. I did listen to it and understood words such as: Harry Potter, playlist, and Youtube. The only part of the subtitles I read was when they said Harry Potter. One of the guys says around Christmas every year, he puts the Harry Potter movies on in the background. Even if he doesn't watch all of it, it's in the background every year. Podcast 104. Nourish Move Love Home Workouts. August 20, 2026. "7 Min Deep Core + Pelvic Floor Workout. No Equipment, No Repeat." Current ranking 71. I didn't realize that any home workouts would be on Spotify's top 100. I thought about doing the workout for my daily exercise but I didn't because this workout is designed for women. It did test my determination to listen to all these podcasts but I passed. I just listened to it so I heard instructions on what to do and a bunch of counting. They had two people that viewers could model their exercise after one was for beginners and one was for advanced. Podcast 105. Scandal. August 21, 2026. "Lindsay Clancy Case Rocked by Explosive Witness Testimony." Current ranking 75. This is the second podcast I have listened to about the Lindsay Clancy case. This podcast showed more of the trial while the other podcast was more with the assumption that the listener had already heard the trial and it went into analysis. One thing that I think is a serious flaw in our legal system is expert witnesses getting highly paid to say what one side wants them to say. Here this Dr. Zeizel gets paid tons of money by the defense. A guest on this podcast praises Dr. Zeizel for what a good job he did for the defense but I think it is pretty scummy to be a hired gun who would say anything for money that can help a murderer get off. Another problem with this legal system is how mental illness can be used to escape legal consequences. In the other podcast the host at the end mentioned how it is a dangerous message to tell people with mental health problems that they don't have agency. I think to ask a jury to know what is inside someone's brain beyond a reasonable doubt is too much. Lindsay Clancy strangled her three children to death and deserves prison. She can use mental health as an excuse but that is pure evil and I hope it doesn't work. Podcast 106. The Truth about Natalie. August 24, 2026. "Episode 3: Red Flags." Current ranking 67.This podcast explored the death of Natalie Jones. Police believe she died of a drug overdose but a no drugs were found in her system. I don't have confidence in police to care enough about things to get it right. There were some things not adding up but I wasn't a fan of this podcast because I think the host had some bad logic. Such as acting as if there were no way she would park her car in the spot where she was because she couldn't open her door. But if she were on drugs and she were dying she might not be thinking of such things. Podcast 107. Murder with my husband. August 24, 2026. "335. The Aliso Viejo Spa Bombing- The Murder of Ildiko Krajnyak." They started this podcast talking about Lindsay Clancy. The host was talking about how he didn't really look into it too much but then he did a bunch of speculation. If I were a podcast host I would definitely research such things before talking. Most of the podcast was about this bombing. His wife talks most the time. She did the research on the story and he reacts to what she says. I thought the case was interesting to listen to. Ildiko Krajnyak was a serial cheater who was married and had many boyfriends. One of them got mad when he found out about the others and killed her with a bomb. Podcast 108. Park Predators. August 25, 2026. "The Pavillion." This podcast told the story of a murder in the 1970s. Podcast 109. Are You Garbage? Comedy Podcast. August 24, 2026. "Midwestern Dirtbag w/ Prof!" The hosts interviewed a rapper named Prof. We got background on him growing up. He had some interesting stories like how his dad burned down his house after an argument. Prof got a lot of money from flipping a house and dealing drugs before he bacame a successful rapper. not yet Podcast 110. Snook. August 24, 2026. "Stalker Reddit Threads." 111. . July 8. "Terrifying Canadian Wilderness Horror Stories." missed writing about. Podcast 112. The Ringer Fantasy Football Show. August 28, 2026. "The Boring Players That Will Win Your League." They talk about players that they think others will overlook. I suspect now that the NFL season is starting there will be a bunch of fantasy football podcasts making the top 100. This is the second one now. Podcast 113. Stavvy's World. September 7, 2026. "#197- Joe List and Dan Soder." They talk about sports, politics, and do jokes. Crude humor. Podcast 114. Countdown To. September 9, 2026. "Riley Green: Countdown To That's Just Me (with Pat McAfee). I thought this was going to be about football and it was a little bit but it was mostly about music as Riley Green is apparently a successful country music singer. Podcast 115. Live Free with Josh Howerton. September 14, 2026. "How to Study the Bible (and ACTUALLY Grow Spiritually)." This podcast seemed like it had some good tips on different ways to study the Bible. They showed some methods to go into depth. They completley lost me when they did their Charlie Kirk montage on the end. It is terrible to honor someone who spread lies that led to the January 6 insurrection. They clipped Trump speaking favorably about Kirk. Only a false Christian teacher would lead people to support Donald Trump. Podcast 116. Boho Beautiful Meditation. September 21, 2026. "10 Minute Guided Meditation for Inner Peace. Let Go of The Past & Trust Your Path." This is currently ranked number 21. This is 10 minutes of meditation. A soft soothing voice saying nice things with soft music in the background. I can't speak to the effectiveness of if it makes you feel better as I was emptying all of our garbages during this time instead of following the instructions to sit in a quiet place and breathe at the right times. Podcast 117. Nova Wellness. September 23, 2026. "20 min Upper Body Burn. This is currently ranked 29 and it is my second exericise podcast. The first time I didn't follow along because the exercises were directed towards women. This one, I am sure, is primarily directed towards women as well but I thought I could benefit from it. When I have been exercising I usually run on the elliptical. I don't do enough strength exercises. I am changing that next week and want to do three days of cardio and three days of strength exercises. I did the exercises of this podcast for 20 minutes and felt like I got a good workout. When you don't do strength exercises for years, then you definitely feel it. Podcast 118. Journey with Johnny. September 23, 2026. "Are You Young-Keu-Keu or Old Keu-Keu? What's Trending in Korea." He talked about trends in Korea and America. It reminded me of this lady in A Series of Unfortunate Events who was obsessed with what was in and what was out.
