    Escape Through the Blaze: Follow the Bobcat
    Jan 15 2026
    A lost hunter inadvertently sets in motion a terrifying chain of events. As his signal fire gets out of control it becomes a massive, uncontainable wildfire. Within minutes, the blaze is rampaging west - towards the hills outside San Diego… towards the houses nestled among the slopes… like the one where Sandra Younger lives with her husband. Can they make it out in time? A Noiser podcast production. Hosted by John Hopkins.

    An idealistic teenager gets the chance to fulfil his long-held dream of living off-grid for an entire year. But when David Scott and his friend arrive deep in the wilderness of Manitoba, a nightmare scenario unfolds. Unable to locate their cabin - the only shelter for 120 miles - they are totally exposed.

The best podcast by far. I listen to a lot of podcasts, but this leaves them all behind. The production, the presentation, and the narrator turn these stories into a personal experience. An amazing experience to sink oneself into.
