    Ivy Insights

    The Inside The Exorcist podcast is a must-listen for any fan of the movie or horror genre. As someone who was already a big fan of The Exorcist, I was excited to delve into the behind-the-scenes stories and learn more about how the movie was made. I was not disappointed! The podcast is well-narrated and expertly weaves together the actual case of the possessed child with the writing and production of the film. It is a binge-worthy series that kept me hooked from start to finish. I highly recommend it.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is how it provides a deep dive into the making of The Exorcist. The writer skillfully incorporates details about the cast, crew, and production process, creating an entertaining and informative show. Additionally, the inclusion of backstories in the lives of all those involved adds a creative element to the storytelling. It's fascinating to learn about the incidents and events that occurred during filming, as well as read online articles for further research after listening to each episode. Overall, it's a fantastic exploration of one of the most iconic horror movies ever made.

    While there are many positive aspects to this podcast, one minor downside may be repetitive ads and use of multiple voices by one narrator for different characters. Some listeners may find this tiresome or distracting at times. However, these are minor criticisms compared to the overall quality and enjoyment provided by the series.

    In conclusion, Inside The Exorcist is an exceptional podcast for fans of The Exorcist or scary movies in general. It offers an intriguing look into the making of a cult classic, filled with intriguing backstories and interesting anecdotes. The production value is top-notch, with immersive sound design and engaging narration. Whether you're a longtime fan or discovering The Exorcist for the first time, this podcast is a captivating journey that should not be missed.

Musk had gone from Twitter critic to “Chief Twit” in the space of just a few months but his arrival didn't put an end to questions about his motives. Musk had earned a reputation as a business maverick. From PayPal to Tesla to SpaceX, his name was synonymous with big, earth-shattering ideas. So, what did he want with a social media platform?

    Foretold is a deeply engrossing podcast that follows the life of Paulina Stevens, a Romani fortune teller as she makes the extraordinary decision to leave her community. In this preview feature we begin with a frantic meeting in a cafe where a panicked Paulina blurts out she has escaped her family's psychic shop with her children, that she is a scam artist born and bred, that she was in an arranged marriage and taken out of school in the 6th grade to prepare for a life pre-determined for her. And so begins the journey to unpack each of those claims, learning about the context and culture of Romani people (commonly known as the pejorative 'Gypsy') along the way. This podcast explores cultural identity, evolution of culture, women's roles, modernization and tradition, and group dynamics --all wrapped up in a compelling and universally relatable life story of a unique woman who is curious about the world and yet metaphysically and culturally connected to her people's history.

The residents of her cloistered Colorado hometown had scoured every inch of prairie. Jonelle's face had been on milk cartons nationwide. Even the President of the United States had appealed to the public for help. Still, every lead had fizzled. Every person of interest had turned out to be a dead end.Then, in 2019, Jonelle's remains were unearthed near the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.
