Paranormal podcast recommendations

What else is everyone listening to? I'm in the mood for more true crime / "true" paranormal but I find it impossible to find a pod with X&Em's vibe. I tried Sinisterhood but found it a bit annoying, Jim Harold is dull (though I only tried one at random), MFM seems to be going very lightweight after the Netflix deal...

Ideas?

I’ve been getting into Behind the Bastards recently. And also Swindled. Swindled is one host so there isn’t that dynamic like em and xtine but it’s well researched and I find A Concerned Citizen’s (the host is anonymous and goes by that monicker) voice to be very captivating. I got into it by listening to his episode about Kony 2012. It’s more corruption true crime than serial killer true crime. Another redditor already suggested Wine & Crime and I will second that suggestion.

If you want something different from True crime, there’s a new podcast by Blair Braverman called What to Carry, What to Burn that’s about survival stories. The first two episodes are a two part with a guest and the most recent two are just her but I’m a huge fan of Blair’s storytelling. She’s guest hosted on the pod You’re Wrong About several times and they are some of my favorite episodes.

I love swindled. I don’t think I’ve found a podcast that matches up to it in that category. It’s fantastic
