Petty Tyrant is one of my favorites.

Story about a janitor that finagles himself to a supervisor position through fraud and deception then moves on to arson, vandalism, and terrorism .


I also get to see Ira Glass live in November :)

I always really enjoy the shows where they dig deep into and investigate a topic.

They have two good episodes like that on the mortgage crisis Giant Pool of Money and Toxie

It's been a while since David Sedaris has been on I forgot he used to be much more regular.

He has always been one of my favorites, the story Cry me a Liver hit's particularly close to home and is one I adore.

PI Moms is fantastic, I highly recommend it.

That episode was a roller coaster of crazy, can anyone recommend stories about criminals conspiracies?

Not just criminal governmental and corporate grand schemes are also welcome.

I'm not quite sure why you spoilered that, but try ...

It was a newer episode, I had an impression of what the episode would be based on the description, and I enjoy it when an episode spins off into crazy town and has little to do with the original title, why spoil that for others.

I saw Ira Glass live yesterday, it was a lot of fun, he talked about his experience on the show, had a bunch of unused clips from other episodes, elaborated on what it takes to make just one episode, he also took questions from the audience which were great.
