From Buckingham Palace to Hawkins, Indiana: 5 podcasts to stream this weekend

Congratulations on making it to yet another weekend! There’s so much happening between the release of season four of Stranger Things, the NBA Finals, and the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee that we’re recommending podcasts to keep you invested in it all.

Plus, we all need a little dose of true crime every once in a while, which is why we’re recommending a new podcast about America’s own Jack the Ripper. Also, get some fresh air with “Podcast But Outside.” If you’re on the hunt for podcasts to binge this weekend, check out these five podcasts and see what tickles your fancy!

Noble Blood

It’s the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee! So… we’re recommending “Noble Blood” we guess. Look, Dana Schwartz’s podcast all about history’s most fascinating royals is downright fantastic, so we have to share it this weekend. From the misunderstood and deeply complex to the blood-thirsty rulers of the past, “Noble Blood” knocks it out of the park with every passing episode.

Dungeons and Demogorgons – A Stranger Things Podcast

Stranger Things is finally, finally back after three whole years! If you can’t get enough of the hit Netflix series, grab your walkie talkies and tune into “Dungeons and Demogorgons – A Stranger Things Podcast.” Hear recaps and reviews of every single chapter and see if hosts Jim and A.Ron share your same fears for our favorite characters.

No Dunks

The NBA Finals are officially underway, so obviously we’re staying glued to The Athletic’s “No Dunks” podcast until a winner emerges. Every single day, hosts Skeets, Tas, Trey, Leigh, and JD are covering the latest NBA news, sharing predictions, recapping games, and more.

Devilish Deeds

For a hit of true crime this weekend, be sure to check out “Devilish Deeds.” This Drag Audio Production House podcast is telling the story of America’s first, yet little-known, serial killer: the Servant Girl Annihilator. Host and journalism student at University of Texas at Austin Megan Parker simultaneously investigates the unknown serial killer and examines a city that never identified, or perhaps never cared enough to try to identify, the person who murdered multiple Black women under the cover of night.

Podcast But Outside

“Podcast But Outside” goes where no podcast has gone before: outside. In Cole Hersch and Andrew Michaan’s aptly named show, the two merely set-up shop outside tourist destinations and the occasional wedding around the country to interview anyone willing to sit down with them. Wholesome, weird, and entirely correct, “Podcast But Outside” is your next podcast obsession.
