My friend Jay O'Connell has a podcast called "Jay's Tinfoil Hat". He's done about a dozen 10-minute episodes so far, on topics ranging from his young son Milo's gender variance (Milo wants to be a girl), to watching the first gay marriages take place in Cambridge, to adolescent partying, his first apartment, transhumanism, immortality, and cryonics. He has an engaging narrative voice, which is unique yet reminds me of Spalding Gray or This American Life. He also illustrates each podcast with beautiful original photographs and illustrations.
This episode is my favourite, about a junkyard that Jay used to play in as a kid. It has a surprise ending that epitomises my friend -- and curiously enough is reminiscent of Narnia, but don't let that stop you from listening.
