Well hey there. It's us, your friendly Castologists. We are here to make your self-isolating that little bit easier with recommendations of the podcasts you should be listening to. Liz recommends a show that's part reality television, part makeover show and part self help with We Love You (And So Can You). Zane gets serious (and we seriously mean serious) with the serious investigative journalism podcast Reveal. Then Nick takes us across the globe for an intriguing documentary about a hidden royal family with The Jungle Prince. Then, it's review time, baby.
Liz Recommends - We Love You (And So Can You)

"We Love You (And So Can You) follows the journey of a guest looking to makeover part of their life: like jumping back into the dating world, dealing with professional jealousy, or navigating a new phase in life as an empty nester. Hosts Kristen Meinzer and Jolenta Greenberg draw on extensive knowledge of self-help to provide a prescription of wellness practices, creative activities, media consumption, and more, which the guest follows while we eavesdrop on their progress. The goal: for the guest to find the outstanding person who was there all along, and learn to love themselves more. We Love You (And So Can You) is part reality show, part self-love school, and the best makeover show in the podcast universe."
These gals are also the hosts of the previously recommended podcast By The Book (https://bythebookpod.com/about-us)
For both: whatever ep grabs you.

Nick Recommends - The Jungle Prince
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/11/22/world/asia/the-jungle-prince-of-delhi.html
The story passed for years from tea sellers to rickshaw drivers to shopkeepers in Old Delhi. In a forest, they said, in a palace cut off from the city, lived a prince, a princess and a queen, said to be the last of a Shiite Muslim royal line. Some said the family had been there since the British had annexed their kingdom. Others said they were supernatural beings. It was a stunning and tragic story. But was it real?
On a spring afternoon, while on assignment in India, Ellen Barry got a phone call that sent her looking for the truth.
For both: All of it!
