    Best Ever
    Lore is my favorite podcast I have been listening for a month and I’m already on episode 218. It teaches me history while also giving me the horror aspect that I love.😊🖤
  • BettieBloem
    Perfect
    I can’t think of anything I don’t enjoy about this podcast! Aaron and Chad are household names, lol. Road trips, whilst working, baking cookies. It’s terrific to enhance any experience where you want sound other than music! Keep it up! We’ve been listening for years!
  • general turtles is so cool
    Good for long car trips!
    I like to listen to lore on long car trips it’s very interesting and passes the time. My only complaint is the upload schedule.
  • This name isn’t taken.
    Love it but…
    A-aron! Stop patting yourself on the back every episode. We know you’ve won awards for this but you should at least act humble. Stop reminding us of your achievements and podcast!

    100% Lore
    Aaron’s writing style is incredibly engaging! I have enjoyed every episode I’ve indulged in and all of his books. Brilliant work on the research aspects; I am always enthralled and call upon Lore’s stories for that intensely strange comfort feeling we get when we listen to spooky tales ✨✨✨

    Favorite Podcast
    This podcast has been my absolute favorite for the past three years. I’ve listened to all episodes, and all other podcasts that are produced by Aaron Mahnke and Grim and Mild. Lore is just the right amount of spooky/macabre and Aaron Mahnke’s storytelling is unmatched. I love that while the show covers some disturbing topics, the stories are delivered in such a classy manner with no swearing or gratuitous violence/gore. I recommend this podcast to all my friends/family and anyone who’s interested in the darker, more macabre aspects of history. Please never stop making Lore!

    Lore is wonderful
    I’ve listened to every episode of Lore since I found it in 2018. I pay for the ad free episodes, not because the ads bother me but because if you like things you have to support them. Thank you for putting out quality content. I’ll continue to support for the foreseeable future.

    Hi! ( I know you like when people say Hi!) Your podcast is my favorite! I listen to everything you put out! I feel like you should dictate everything! I would pay more attention to textbooks and other books if you read them!
  • Lady Gisell
    Exceptional
    I have been listening to your podcast since 2019. You have kept me captivated with each episode. You really put so much thought into the show. The musical score, the narration, and details. It doesn’t compare to other podcasts. I appreciate that you get right into the episodes and to be honest even the ads aren’t a big deal to listen to, Thank you!

    WAAAAY TOO MANY ADS!!!
    I i’ve been a subscriber of this podcast for many years. However, lately, the ads are just about as long as the program. I’m not willing to pay for a subscription on a monthly basis to can get rid of ads. So, I’m getting rid of this podcast.

    Grim & Mild
    Has there ever been a podcast production company with the most perfect description of the content. I find this podcast comforting, to be honest. The voice and pacing are perfect- as if being read a bedtime story.
  • German23Girl
    Love this Podcast but…
    I was very impressed and quite entertained when I found this podcast and others from Aaron Mahnke. Being a bit a history junkie, the Grim & Mild collection is fabulous. The reason for only 3 stars is that, without warning, now I would have to pay for the episodes that I was getting as “a loyal listener.” Not the best reward for being a loyal listener, liking, and following…
  • Begown
    Well researched and very enjoyable
    Also love how the 1 star reviews all seem to be either”Lore is too woke” or “Lore is too Euro-centric and white”. Can’t win I guess.
  • Jacqui O Trouble
    Pretty darn good
    Worth a listen if you like the darker side of things…
  • K Wink
    Meticulously researched and well thought out
    Many episodes of LORE are stories you've heard before or are at least aware of, but with much less emphasis on "ghost stories" and more on the actual history of each place, person, or event. Aaron leaves out many of the more gory details, which often lets your imagination fill in the blanks. While there are many different styles of LORE episodes, I think the general takeaway from many of them can be summed up by Nietzsche when he said "Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster..."

    Great podcast
    Love this podcast, it’s historical and sometimes a little creepy. Aaron’s voice is so soothing
  • BSamurai
    I love Lore!
    Hi! I love Legends and the original show. Definitely look forward to every episode every week. Keep it up!
  • sweet0126652&9763
    As good as it gets!
    If you want to know how a podcast should be done, here it is. Unbelievable the amount of content he has put out over the years and he continues! Production, music, and effects, the voice… clear, clean, puts you right there and never fails to entertain and educate even! The crazy thing too is they never stop! The other mini pods and Bridgewater is something else you all need to make sure and check out if you like this but want a scripted out story!
  • Jaren5d
    Consistent
    Podcast come and go in my life but Lore has been the one that is a constant in my library. Not only entertaining but informative.
  • Nevpaurion9
    An absolute must listen, and a great patreon!
    Lore has for years been one of the best regularly compelling podcasts I’ve heard. The stories are expertly crafted, the telling by Aaron has a great pace and the right amount of reverence for the topic mixed with levity when it makes sense, and it’s one of the most rewarding patreon subscriptions out there. Give it a try!
  • Myrab51
    Family Favorite
    My husband and 20 something daughter listen to Lore with me whenever we are all in the car together or when we are all hanging out before bed. It’s the one podcast that all three of us enjoy. Sometimes it’s a little dark and spooky. It’s always interesting. I appreciate Aaron’s narration style and delivery format.

    All Roads Lead to Witch Hunts
    This is your podcast if you can’t get enough witch trial stories. Witch trials in England, France, US, Spain, etc. They are, not surprisingly, pretty much the same with a few different details. It’s hard to tell why there’s so much repetition. At this point I’m over it and just don’t download those episodes. Update: since this review I’ve skipped approximately five episodes. Idk what Aaron Manke’s obsession with witch trials is, but it’s getting very repetitive. Maybe he’s interested in the tiny differences between the stories, but they all sound the same to me. I guess the names of the victims and the authorities change, but otherwise the stories are all the same.
  • kelsysoprano
    Too hard to listen to…not for the reason you think
    I love these sorts of stories and shows but the one thing that stopped be from listening to this podcast for more than an episode was the host’s voice. Every tale is spoken as if it was AI generated. Its terrible.
  • Jake LaRue
    More woke by the episode
    I like to play “Woke Bingo” - I can usually cover my squares titled “Indigenous Peoples”, “Enslaved Persons”, and, of course, any same sex relationship is a bonus square. Aaron must’ve hired several new employees whose only job is to cram these references into every episode, often without context or reason. Yes, we know “Indigenous Peoples” lived here before the evil white man arrived. We don’t need to hear about it as you describe a ghost story about a hotel. #noconnection

    Savannah Georgia episode
    As a South Georgia native, I loved listening to the episode pertaining to Savannah Georgia! We have such rich history. Great job covering the story! I would love to hear more.
  • greycatdot
    Love all the spooky
    Love the stories. Love the music. Only criticism: Definitely need to branch out to other cultures like Dana does on Noble Blood. I loved the Djinn pod. Also: Hi!

    Too Euro-/Anglo-American focused
    This podcast was once pretty good, but he hasn’t bothered broadening his knowledge. The content has become boring and samey by not going global. There’s so much lore in the world other than Europe and white America!!
  • Duty iffy
    Excellent detail
    I really enjoy Lore. Nice detail and depth in story telling. The North Carolina episode is great coming from that state it all rang very true!
  • 1234rule
    Your awesome
    Your podcasts rule Aaron
  • Joyfulunwisdom
    Well-done but super depressing
    “This historic place has been said to have ghosts!” Ooh! Fun! “Because twelve children were strangled to death there.” Oh. That’s sad. Tell me more about spooky gho- “Their entrails were strung through the trees. Some say you can still hear them screaming.” That’s horrible. “Ready for more spooky fun??? This next one is about a farmer who murdered his family and then hung himself!! Woohoo!!” No, I’m good. I’m gonna go stare into the middle distance and try not to become depressed and angry at the world.
  • Lore is fun
    Love it
    Love this podcast helps my day all the time
  • Shadywoode
    Grim….
    Loved all the early stuff. Business model changed. Now it’s ads, walls and virtue signaling. Lots of virtue signaling. Aaron has hit all the low hanging fruit of folklore and recycles the crap out of it.

    Saved my life!!!!
    I love this podcast it helps me sleep almost every single night. I love all the stories most of them take place in my home state. It also gives me and my girlfriend something to look forward to for an adventure, and to also listen to. I have also got into the book series when I discovered it, I was in prison for a long time in a state that was far away from home and it helped me get through my sentence and now it is also one of my favorite joys in life and my girlfriend is into it to also my children we have gone to , hoosac tunnel it is a crazy how a podcast saved my life and mental state!!! Now has brought me a wonderful woman who falls asleep to it to most people don’t get it but I love it thank you Aron so much big fan!!
