Podcast recommendations. Again

[odin]

KEXP Live; a seatle radio station I believe. Lots of good bands depending on what you like, I highly recommend it.

Radio 4; In Our time, More or less, and the reith lectures. Become cleverer in the space of 20 mins/.

[buckethead]

Not music but
- radiolab
- partially examined life
- freakonomics (some episodes)

[Tirofijo]

Serial. (See my review in the review subforum. http://irongarmx.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=227328)

Comedy Bang Bang for comedians and actors doing long form improv (comedians come on and are interviewed as themselves and sometimes play a character, which is when the improv kicks in. Andy Daly kills when ever he's on. Jessica St Clair is great. Paul F Tompkins is prolific and usually reliable. It gets better as you listen to it, because there are recurring characters with inside jokes and callbacks. I pick and choose episodes based on which ones have the comedians I like.

Here's a taste. It's Andy Daly playing a vampire-fighting cowboy poet.

The Fighter and The Kid. Comedian Bryan Callen and UFC heavyweight fighter Brendan Schaub. Very funny. Great chemistry.

[Jonny Canuck]

WTF with mark maron. He is a pretty good interviewer and his guests usually open up to him.

[Mickey O'neil]

I've started listening to this lately. Good stuff.

[Turdacious]

Memory Palace is worth listening to if you like This American Life.
Oxford Biography is interesting, depending on the subject, definitely recommended for history buffs and Anglophiles.
The Economist has good short podcasts (a little too short IMHO).
Welcome to Night Vale-- if you get into it it's addictive.

[buckethead]

definitely recommended for history buffs and Anglophiles.

You are a sick fuck. I am not listening to a guy talk about sex with a fish. This place should be moderated

[Turdacious]

Bump.

[Alfred_E._Neuman]

Startalk Radio with Neil Degrasse Tyson.

[Grandpa's Spells]

fivethirtyeight
pessimists archive
Dan Carlin's Hardcore History
Hello From the Magic Tavern (start from the beginning)
Pod Save America (for the conservatives among us)

[Freki]

I second Hardcore History, but it's not to be taken on lightly. 15-30 hours over multiple podcasts on things like the kings of Persia and the cause of WWI.

He's probably an acquired taste, but I like the Jocko podcast a lot.

The Moment with Brian Koppelman.

If you grew up listening to Paul Harvey's The Rest of the Story, the Mike Rowe podcasts are quite similar.

[Holland Oates]

New picks
Sword and Scale - true crime - fucking tough to learn about real monsters
Lore - true life scary stories - myths legends and some of the real stories behind them
Last Podcast on the Left - true crime, aliens, ghosts, crazy shit in general. Hilarious but not for everyone.
Wrestler Review - couple of comedians discussing a specific wrestler each episode

Oldies but still goodies
The Art of Wrestling
The Dana Gould Hour
Rogan every now and then but few and far between same with Jocko and Rich Roll.

Dropped like a hot turd
The Fighter and the Kid - fuck me I couldn't take Callen any longer. Also dropped Power Athlete Radio and Inside BJJ.

[Turdacious]

New:
Zero Blog 30- politics and whatever else-- understanding a military sense of humor is probably a prereq. Flows like a group of smart cool guys bullshitting.
US GAO Watchdog Report-- considering that it's an official government podcast, this is incredible. They're short too.
Sasquatch Syndicate-- interviews with people who've seen a sasquatch and other similar stuff. It's like long form Art Bell.

Oldies but goodies
A&G
Jim Ross

[Sangoma]

If you like whacky stuff - Skeptiko (with a "K"). Alternative ideas about consciousness, reality etc.

[The Ginger Beard Man]

I'll second Jocko. I'm neither military nor BJJ and I still enjoy it.
Just added 50 Things That Made the Modern Economy. They're short (9minutes), and cover a variety of things, like the iPhone, shipping container, bank, and Billy bookcase.
Outside Online just did a three part series called Cliffhanger about the Eastern Airlines 980 crash in Bolivia in 1985. And I found out about that from The Grey Nato, two watch guys talking about watches, diving, cars, and outdoor stuff.

[Turdacious]

1A has been excellent so far.

[syaigh]

I second radiolab.
Snap judgement.
Moth radio hour.
1a is very good.

[Bram]

Just saw the radiolab folks do a live performance in San Diego. Very impressed.

[Boris]

I'm sorry, Skeptiko was horrible. I'm all for open mind but that guy is hell bent on para
