Alas, I am terrible at anagrams, but I am an avid podcast listener. Some podcasts that I love are:#3: Lollipop (lollipop) on Nov 16, 2019
* Flash Forward - first they act out a possible future scenario, such as "What if all the bees were gone?" and then the podcaster takes a deep look at the science behind it.
* Gastropod - geeky food science and history, much fun!
* Stuff Mom Never Told You - various feminist topics
* Savor - more geeky food science and history
* Stuff You Should Know - these two nice guys pick a topic from an incredibly wide variety of areas, research it, and then talk about it
* Imaginary Worlds - neat discussions of science fiction
* 99% Invisible - incredibly wide variety of topics, all told interestingly
* On The Media - a Public Radio show that I adore
* Reply All - geeky topics by people who take things too far
* Planet Money and The Indicator - two more Public Radio shows I really like
* The Daily - the New York Times picks a topic and does a brief but deep look into it
I'm not a big podcast listener, but I got hooked on Tai Asks Why when I was listening to CBC Radio while in my car on my way to regular weekly appointments. Tai is an 11-year old who asks cool questions (What is love? How does deja vu work?) and gets answers from scientific experts in the field and also from his friends. My grandchildren aged 8 and 10 also love it, so it appeals to all ages and is great for families to listen to together.#4: Phyllis Schimke (PhyS) on Nov 17, 2019 [SPOILER]

I happened to catch 99% Invisible and I too follow it now.
I found three words I thought fit.#5: JoDeen Mozena (ozymoe) on Nov 17, 2019 [SPOILER]
FRETS AVOCADO PIT
Funny coincidence...I was eating half an avocado as I was solving this puzzle. I loved both the puzzle and the avocado. I ate it with a layer of sour cream and then sprinkled with salt and pepper. Yup...it's on my keto type diet!#6: Teresa K (fasstar) on Nov 17, 2019 [SPOILER]
Phyllis, you got it!#7: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Nov 17, 2019
Valerie, thanks for all the podcast suggestions. A few I already listen to, and a few others I am going to check out.
Lollipop, that sounds like a podcast I'd like to listen to with my "kids."
JoDeen, I love coincidences like that. I'm glad you liked the puzzle. I love avadado with sour cream too. Sometimes with a squirt of lime juice and salt and pepper. Good stuff.
A fun podcast is "Welcome to Night Vale". It takes the form of a small-town radio news broadcast, but everything in town is a little bit spooky and otherworldly.#8: Teresa K (fasstar) on Nov 17, 2019
Kristen, that sounds like something my kids would like. We'll have to give it a listen.#9: jewel crown (Jewel) on Nov 30, 2019
