Lately I've been listening to a lot of Criminal - http://www.thisiscriminal.com (episodes with disturbing content are warned about in the beginning- some are just weird or heartwarming or thoughtful)
And also Andrew Bird! https://andrewbird.bandcamp.com
@draculing I'm a big fan of true crime too, http://casefilepodcast.com/ is probably my favorite! (Warning for disturbing content.)
As for music, I listen to a lot of scores -- The Knick, Black Sails, and Interstellar are current faves. Thanks for the Criminal rec!
