  • Lore 302: Bedside Manner
    Mar 23 2026

    It takes a lot of compassion to care for the sick and nurse them back to health. And it takes a lot of trust to allow your well-being to rest in their hands. Thanks to a few terrible real life figures, though, it's safe to say that our trust…can sometimes be misplaced.

    Narrated and produced by Aaron Mahnke, with writing by GennaRose Nethercott, research by Cassandra de Alba, and music by Chad Lawson.

  • Legends 75: Precious
    Mar 16 2026

    Chasing treasure has always had an allure. But while legends of lost treasures and those who seek them are often entertaining, they also hide a darker question: how much is that treasure truly worth?

    Narrated and produced by Aaron Mahnke, with writing by Alex Robinson and research by Cassandra de Alba.

I've been listening to Lore for a few years now and it's the only podcast I've stuck with. The stories are fascinating and Aaron Mankes delivery and story telling are top-notch. He has got me through many a long day at work and traffic jam!
