Neostalgia
This is a Neopets podcast, but like Neopets, it is not for children.
Episodes
In this episode, we express our deep disappointment and frustration with TNT for releasing YET ANOTHER mobile game survey! Plus, a puzzling acquisition announcement, our reactions to the latest pet colors and outfits, and some quintessential fall items.
In this episode, we chat about the Steampunk Grundo, security updates, and the latest editorial. We've also got two listener emails - one that confirms the "Blue Pteri Theory" and another that shares some truly incredible Neopets PowerPoint presentations. Plus: ideas for future plushies, our childhood role models, and how Neopians really feel about Faerie's Hope!

In this episode, we spend the first 20 minutes discussing movies we've seen lately and birthday freebies (oops). Then we speed through the 5(!) most recent pet days before getting to the main topic - the Neopets data breach! We also have an intriguing business proposition, more user designs for pets, and a Neopets version of an iconic fanfic. Plus, we talk about which Muppet we're most like and rate our enclosures!

Then we recap the final Altador Cup results and (lightly) dig into the surrounding controversy. Plus: some tasty user paintbrush ideas, talking about Neopets with your therapist, and condiments on mac and cheese?!?

This episode contains what is hopefully our last update on Neopets NFTs. We discuss how only about 20% of the original amount of NFTs were sold, how ugly and messed up the NFTs ended up looking, and some serious allegations from Dress to Impress.

If you can never get enough true crime... Congratulations, you’ve found your people.
Bone Valley is a 9-episode true crime podcast. New episodes are available for free every Wednesday. In 1987, 18-year-old Michelle Schofield was found dead in a phosphate pit in Florida. Two years later, her husband Leo was convicted and sentenced to life in prison. Fifteen years later, previously unidentified fingerprints matched Jeremy Scott--a violent teenager who lived nearby. Jeremy has since confessed to Michelle’s murder. Yet Leo Schofield remains behind bars. In this groundbreaking podcast, Bone Valley host Gilbert King uncovers startling new evidence that Jeremy is responsible for a string of murders. King is the author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Devil in the Grove, which led to the exonerations of four innocent men. Bone Valley is a production of Lava for Good Podcasts in association with Signal Co. No1.

Going through her journals and keepsakes, as well as things left behind by his father and brother, Cooper begins a series of emotional and moving conversations about the people we lose, the things they leave behind, and how to live on - with loss, with laughter, and with love.
Current and classic episodes, featuring compelling true-crime mysteries, powerful documentaries and in-depth investigations.
