How to listen: Lore is available on Apple Podcasts, RadioPublic, and RSS. But Lore is a show I always return to, and with the vast trove of folklore as its inspiration, it’s a show that Mahnke will no doubt be able to keep producing as long as he is interested. The show’s anthology format makes it a podcast that you listen to in streaks, and I’ve often found myself latching on for a few episodes here or there, only to drift away as the urgency of a serialized show captures my attention instead. by the aid of the mirror inside the open door. echo, image, imitate, mimic, parrot, reflect, repeat. A surface capable of reflecting sufficient undiffused light to form an image of an object placed in front of it. The Echo Show 10 tracks your movement to make sure you’re always in the frame on video calls. mirror synonyms, mirror pronunciation, mirror translation, English dictionary definition of mirror. In that sense, Lore is as much about the influence of folklore as it is the legends themselves. Amazon’s new rotating, follow-you camera is useful and invasive. There’s nothing innately scary about the show’s production or Mahnke’s delivery unto itself the fascination is more in the way the show’s tales echo the common urban legends that permeate our society, or how the details of one story may tie into famous horror tales like Dracula. It vital for me to know who I am within the reflection in my mirror. Reflection contains powerful image and effort. Along the way, it has become a full-fledged media brand unto itself, inspiring a number of books, a series from Amazon Prime, and an immersive haunted house. In my mirror, there is only one person who holds the driving force and that’s me. Since the show’s debut in 2015, it has presented bi-weekly tales of folklore and mystery, narrated by Mahnke in his calm, reserved monotone.

Why we love it: Aaron Mahnke’s Lore is a podcast mainstay at this point.
